Company information

Since 1912, Sullivan Moving & Storage has been a well-known name in San Diego's moving industry. They've stuck around for so long because they understand everything that goes into a move. They know how stressful it is and that the only thing people want is someone reliable with whom they can leave their stuff. That's why their team of experts handles belongings with the utmost care. As a Mayflower company and a United Van Line agent, Sullivan is able to cast a wide net of moving services. There's something for everyone. Residential clients have local, long-distance, and international services. For their commercial clients, they offer employee and office relocation. Additionally, they offer logistics solutions. All in all, there's very little Sullivan can't do.
