We’ve been packing homes in El Dorado Hills since long before Serrano became the dominant master-planned community it is today. Our crews understand that a hillside home off Latrobe Road isn’t packed the same way as a flat Sacramento tract house. Steep driveways, three-car garages stuffed with workshop equipment, and HOA gatehouses that turn away unprepared trucks - these are the realities we plan for before our first box enters your home.

Why Milestone Moving Co. Is El Dorado Hills’s Preferred Packing Services Company
Milestone Moving Co. has been in continuous operation since 2006, and our Packing Services team has handled hundreds of El Dorado Hills homes over the past two decades. We’ve packed everything from 2,500 sq ft Serrano townhomes to 5,500 sq ft custom builds off Green Valley Road, and we know the specific headaches each property type presents.
Our reputation here is built on one thing: showing up prepared. That means pre-registering our truck plates with your HOA five to seven days ahead, confirming your one-day gate code, and arriving with the right materials for your home’s actual contents - not a generic box kit. Dale Whitmore, our founder, still reviews every binding quote personally to make sure the crew arrives with enough inventory, enough time, and the right equipment.
Response time to El Dorado Hills is typically same-day for estimates and next-day for packing starts. We garage our trucks locally and know the difference between a Tuesday morning on El Dorado Hills Boulevard and a Friday afternoon trying to navigate White Rock Road traffic. When wildfire smoke forces rescheduling - and it does, several weeks each summer - we call you directly, 24/7, to find the next viable window.
Our 90-Day Done Right Promise applies to every box we pack. If something we wrapped, crated, or loaded arrives damaged, one call brings a crew or a check. No claim forms that disappear. No subcontractors passing blame.
Our Packing Services in El Dorado Hills
Full Packing Service
A typical full pack in El Dorado Hills runs $300-$1,600, depending on home size and contents density. For the large two-story homes that dominate this market - most built between the mid-1990s and 2010s with vaulted foyers and multi-level floor plans - a full pack means systematically working through 3,000+ sq ft of living space, plus garages, plus detached workshops. We bring Uline heavy-duty double-wall boxes for your workshop tools, Milwaukee-branded equipment for disassembly, and enough crew members that no one is rushing through your kitchen wrap job because the clock is running.
Our crew recently packed a 4,200 sq ft hillside home in Serrano, where the homeowner had a detached workshop full of heavy power tools and a grandfather clock. We pre-registered our truck with the HOA, then used dense foam wrap and custom crating for the clock, and heavy-duty double-wall boxes for the workshop contents - all loaded in one trip, despite the steep driveway and 100°F heat.

Partial Packing
Many El Dorado Hills customers pack their own clothing and books but hire us for kitchens, garages, and anything requiring disassembly. Partial packing starts at $300 and scales based on room count. We often handle just the master kitchen for Serrano homes - those expansive granite-topped islands with pendant lighting that needs careful wrapping - while the family handles bedrooms themselves. You choose the rooms; we bring the materials and the systematic approach.

Fragile & Art Packing
Fragile and art packing in El Dorado Hills runs $300-$1,600, with most custom art and antique jobs falling in the $600-$1,200 range. The high-value furniture and collected art we see in EDH homes - oil paintings from Sacramento galleries, inherited crystal, oversized mirrors in foyer niches - demands more than bubble wrap and hope. We build custom foam enclosures, use acid-free paper for framed pieces, and photograph each item’s pre-pack condition. Full-value protection covers everything we handle, with no deductible.

Custom Crating
Custom crating in El Dorado Hills starts at $300 and runs to $1,600 for large or complex pieces. Grandfather clocks, marble-topped consoles, workshop equipment, and oversized patio furniture from those expansive EDH backyards - these don’t fit standard boxes. We build on-site crating with OSB and reinforced corners, sized to your item and padded for the winding foothill roads between your home and your destination. One crate, built right, eliminates the damage that standard packing invites.

Unpacking Service
Unpacking is available as a standalone service or paired with any pack. Our crews will unbox, place furniture to your floor plan, remove all debris, and leave your new home move-in ready. For El Dorado Hills customers relocating within the community - common among Serrano residents upgrading to larger homes within the same development - this means same-day settle-in without the cardboard mountain.

Packing Supplies & Boxes
You don’t need to hire full service to buy professional-grade materials. We stock Uline double-wall boxes, dish packs with cell dividers, mirror cartons, mattress bags, and tape by the case. El Dorado Hills customers can purchase supplies for self-packing with the same materials our crews use. Free delivery on orders over $150 within 95762.

Trusted Equipment and Materials We Use in El Dorado Hills
We don’t guess at materials. Our El Dorado Hills crews pack with Uline heavy-duty double-wall boxes rated for workshop tools and dense household items, Milwaukee battery-powered equipment for fast disassembly of beds and shelving, and Ryder-branded moving pads for in-transit protection. For custom crating, we source AC-grade plywood and closed-cell foam from regional suppliers with 48-hour turnaround. Everything arrives on our own branded trucks, stocked for your specific job - not borrowed from a rental yard the morning of.
Common Packing Problems We See in El Dorado Hills Homes
- HOA gate access failures. Movers unfamiliar with Serrano and similar gated EDH communities routinely arrive on move day without the required HOA-issued access authorization and are turned away at the guardhouse. We contact community management 5-7 days in advance, register truck license plates, and confirm the one-day gate code before our crew fuels up.
- Heat-rushed packing of fragile items. The Sierra Nevada foothill location delivers 100°F+ heat on many summer days, making June-September moves physically punishing. Packers without local experience rush through glassware and art wrapping to escape the heat, leaving insufficient cushioning. We schedule early-morning starts and rotate crew members to maintain quality through the temperature spike.
- Crushed boxes from workshop contents. El Dorado Hills’s acreage properties often include detached workshops with heavy power tools, metal stock, and equipment that destroys standard single-wall boxes. We use Uline double-wall and custom-built crates for anything over 50 lbs, preventing the blowouts that ruin contents on winding foothill roads.
- Underestimated truck access on steep driveways. Many EDH homes on hillside lots have driveways too steep or curved for standard long-wheelbase moving trucks. We survey access during your free estimate and deploy shorter Ryder box trucks or shuttle vehicles when needed - planned, not improvised on arrival.
