Why SF Trusts The Flying House
We know the SF wrinkles because we do them every week
San Francisco is not like other Bay Area cities. Parking permits. Narrow streets. Building managers who require COIs. Elevator bookings. Loading zones that fill up by 7 AM. We know every one of these wrinkles because we do them every week. Whether you're moving a startup office in SoMa, an apartment in the Mission, or a single-family home in the Sunset — we coordinate the building manager, book the loading zone, pull the parking permit, and handle the move. You don't coordinate anything.
Parking permits handled
We pull SFMTA moving permits and coordinate loading zone access for every SF move — you don't deal with city hall.
Building coordination included
Elevator bookings, loading dock reservations, COI submissions — we handle building manager negotiations so you don't need a move-day project manager.
Every SF neighborhood
From SoMa high-rises to Mission Victorians to Sunset family homes — we move every SF neighborhood every week and know their quirks.
Peninsula-based, 25 min away
Based on the Peninsula just across the Bay Bridge — same-day response on SF quotes is the norm, not the exception.

“We used the Flying House for our move after 10 years in our house. The move was pretty substantial. The crew was professional, efficient, and handled everything with care.”
Richard S.

“Stan was very accommodating as I worked out the scheduling. A relatively small but challenging move — they handled it like true pros.”
Daniel Cox
Bay Area
“Eddie, Tim, and Roan did an outstanding job. They had the tough task of moving all my stuff through a garage and up to the fifth floor — flawless.”

Yes — we move Victorians every week. Long flights of stairs, narrow doorways, delicate banisters — all handled with proper equipment and careful crew.
For apartment moves, 1–2 weeks is usually enough. For moves during summer (June–August) or month-end, aim for 3–4 weeks. For high-rise commercial moves, 4–6 weeks to lock in elevator bookings.
