San Diego is 370 miles of desert and coastal climb from our W Glendale Avenue yard — I-10 west to I-8, Yuma to the Imperial dunes to the Pacific. ACE Movers runs the Glendale to San Diego corridor on a binding Arizona flat figure, same Dale-led crew end to end. No broker handoff at the Colorado River, no carrier swap at the agricultural station.
Route & Timing
The cleanest run: I-10 west through Buckeye and Quartzsite, US-95 south to Yuma, I-8 west across the Imperial Sand Dunes, El Centro, the In-Ko-Pah grade, into San Diego County. Roughly seven hours of driving; we load Glendale mornings, take the desert crossing in cooler late-morning air, and unload coastal San Diego the same evening for most 1–3 bedroom homes.
What This Move Costs

| 3-bedroom + garage | $9,295–$12,495 |
| 4-bed + piano + storage | $12,495–$14,500 |
All Glendale to San Diego moves are binding flat figures signed by Dale after the walkthrough. The CA agricultural inspection adds nothing to the figure.
