Do you offer storage, and is it temperature-controlled?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We operate a secure storage warehouse in Chatsworth with 24/7 monitoring, barcode inventory tracking, and flexible terms.

Can you handle long-distance and interstate moves?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. As a licensed interstate carrier, we move households and businesses across all 48 contiguous states. Most long-distance shipments travel on dedicated trucks, and we always inform you in advance if your shipment may be combined. You get GPS tracking and a binding estimate so there are no surprises.

Question 8

Do you provide packing services?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Professional packing using premium materials is available as an add-on to any move (it is not included in the standard move). Our team can pack your entire home, just the fragile and high-value items, or anything in between — whatever level of help you want.

Question 9

What makes Stratton and Sons different from other moving companies?

Accepted Answer

We are a four-generation, family-owned business built almost entirely on referrals, with a 4.9-star average rating across 63+ Google reviews. We specialize in white-glove care for designers, fine art, and high-value households, with in-house custom crating, air-ride transport, and our own secure Chatsworth warehouse.

Question 10

What should I do to prepare for moving day?

Accepted Answer

We recommend decluttering and packing non-essentials 2-4 weeks before your move. Label boxes by room, set aside valuables you want to transport yourself, and confirm parking and elevator access at both locations (securing permits and elevator reservations is the client's responsibility). Our team handles the heavy lifting and can provide full packing services if needed.
