Windsor, CA-based Hansen’s Moving & Storage, family-owned and serving Northern California since 1986, offers licensed interstate moving with free estimates, professional packing, and secure storage
WINDSOR, Calif., October 7, 2026 — As it marks 4 decades in business, Hansen’s Moving & Storage, a family-owned moving company in Windsor, California, is helping Sonoma County families and businesses relocate across the country through its interstate moving service. Serving Santa Rosa, Windsor, Healdsburg, Rohnert Park, and surrounding communities since 1986, the company coordinates long-distance moves from Northern California throughout California and across the United States, backed by free, no-obligation estimates, professional packing, and secure storage.
“Moving across the country is a big decision, and our customers trust us with everything they own,” said Greg Kelso, owner of Hansen’s Moving & Storage. “After 40 years, we know a good interstate move comes down to careful planning, honest communication, and a crew that treats every home like it’s their own. Our goal is for customers to feel informed from the first call to the last box.”
Built on Four Decades of Local Experience
Since 1986, Hansen’s has helped thousands of homeowners and businesses relocate throughout Northern California. Its crews know Sonoma County neighborhoods, including Bennett Valley, Rincon Valley, Fountaingrove, Coffey Park, Oakmont, Roseland, and downtown Santa Rosa. They plan around hillside properties, narrow streets, apartment complexes, and parking restrictions. That planning carries over to long-distance moves, where careful preparation helps reduce delays and unexpected challenges. Hansen’s also serves Petaluma, Sebastopol, Cotati, Sonoma, Napa, Novato, and Marin County.
How an Interstate Move Works
Hansen’s keeps the process simple and organized in three steps.
Free estimate. Customers describe their move, including timeline, inventory, and any special requests. Hansen’s then provides a free, no-obligation estimate with transparent pricing and answers questions so customers know what to expect. Customers can request a free moving estimate online or by phone.
Planning and preparation. Once a move is booked, Hansen’s builds a customized plan. Customers who want help packing can use professional packing services, in which crews pack an entire home, selected rooms, or only fragile and valuable items using quality materials. Boxes, packing paper, tape, and wardrobe boxes are available, and customers can use wardrobe boxes free of charge.
Moving day. Crews arrive on time, protect the home, and load belongings using furniture pads, stretch wrap, and careful loading techniques. They transport everything to the new destination, unload it, and place furniture and boxes where the customer wants them, staying in communication throughout so customers are informed at every step.
Specialty Items, Storage, and Protection
Hansen’s has experience moving pianos, safes, antiques, artwork, and large furniture, and its crews can disassemble and reassemble beds, dining tables, desks, and other large pieces when needed.
Clean, secure storage is available for customers who need it before, during, or after a move. Storage can help when a closing date shifts, a home is being remodeled, or a customer is downsizing, and Hansen’s can hold belongings safely until the customer is ready for delivery.
Hansen’s is licensed and insured, operating under USDOT 1285225, MC 502674, and California permit Cal-T189590, and is a BBB member. Before each move, the team explains the available valuation coverage options so customers understand how their belongings are protected.
What Customers Say
Hansen’s has completed long-distance moves for customers relocating from California to Michigan and from Oregon to Sonoma County. In published customer reviews, customers describe crews that arrived as scheduled, adapted when a load was larger than expected, and kept them informed during long-distance moves. One customer describes a 2,500-mile move delivered ahead of schedule. Others praise the careful handling of specialty items, including a vintage baby grand piano moved up two flights of stairs without a scratch.
Planning an Interstate Move: Common Questions
How far in advance should I book?
Hansen’s recommends scheduling 4 to 8 weeks ahead, especially for spring and summer or end-of-month moves. Last-minute requests are accommodated whenever possible.
How long does an interstate move take?
Timing depends on the distance, the size of the move, and the customer’s schedule. Hansen’s discusses the timeline during the free estimate and keeps customers informed throughout.
How is an interstate move priced?
Pricing depends on home size, distance, packing needs, specialty items, and timing. Hansen’s provides a free, no-obligation estimate so customers understand the scope and cost before deciding.
Can pianos and safes be moved long distance?
Yes. Hansen’s has experience with pianos, gun safes, and other items that require specialized equipment and extra care.
