San Rafael moves span the whole range of Marin living. A Victorian in Gerstle Park, a mid-century Eichler in Terra Linda, a hillside home on a winding street above downtown, or a waterfront place out at Loch Lomond. Each one needs its own plan, and that planning is what OCD brings to every San Rafael move.

If you're searching for movers in San Rafael, you're moving in the heart of Marin, and the homes here are as varied as the county itself. San Rafael runs from the historic Victorians and Mediterranean estates around Dominican and Gerstle Park, to the famous mid-century Eichler homes of Terra Linda, to winding hillside streets with Craftsman and bungalow homes above downtown, out to the waterfront communities of Loch Lomond and Peacock Gap. That variety shapes every move: hillside homes mean narrow, winding streets and long carries, Eichlers and Victorians have their own layout quirks worth protecting, and as the Marin hub just off Highway 101 and the Richmond–San Rafael Bridge, many San Rafael moves cross the county or the bridge. OCD scouts the access and plans your San Rafael move around the home you actually have.
OCD Moving Services is a team of fully licensed and insured San Rafael movers serving the city and the wider Marin County and Bay Area. We handle local moves across Marin and the Bay Area, long-distance and out-of-state relocations, apartment and condo moves, hillside and waterfront home moves, downsizing and senior moves, office and commercial moves, piano and specialty moves, packing, storage and junk removal. Whatever the job, the same promise holds: honest pricing with no hidden fees, free protective materials, and the same full-time crew from start to finish.
Neighborhoods like Sun Valley, Fairhills and San Rafael Hill climb on narrow, winding, tree-lined streets where a full-size truck can't always pull close. We scout truck placement, plan the carry and bring the crew and equipment to move your hillside home safely, protecting floors and landscaping on the way.
From the historic Victorians of Gerstle Park and Dominican to the mid-century Eichlers of Terra Linda, San Rafael's homes have layouts, woodwork and glass walls worth protecting. Our full-time crews disassemble what needs it, pad door frames and built-ins, and handle character homes with the care they deserve.
Out at Loch Lomond, Peacock Gap and Marin Lagoon, waterfront and marina-area homes have their own access. And as Marin's hub by the Richmond–San Rafael Bridge and Highway 101, many moves here cross the county or the bridge to the East Bay. As a Customer Exclusive service, your belongings travel on one truck with one crew, straight through.
