Sullivan Moving & Storage was established in 1912 and is the largest and most respected moving and storage company in San Diego.
When United Van Lines was formed in 1944, Sullivan became a charter agent. Mark Fischer, the current president, after a long history with Sullivan purchased the company in 1987. We are the largest United agent in San Diego county, and currently have two full service offices, a military only agency, two special product distribution centers and a full service Mayflower agency in Phoenix. In 2011 we expanded into Seattle as part of The CMS Companies with CMS Relocation & Logistics.
Sullivan Moving & Storage is an equal shareholder with other United agents in UNIGROUP, Inc. UNIGROUP is a holding company that not only owns United Van Lines, but also Mayflower Transit, an insurance and truck leasing company with consolidated revenues in excess of $2 billion.
Consistent growth, financial stability, customer service emphasis and low turnover are the ingredients in the success formula for Sullivan Moving & Storage.

Sullivan has 130,000 square feet in two San Diego County warehouses, 40,000 square feet in Phoenix and 40,000 square feet in Seattle, Washington.

The Phoenix facility is conveniently located west of downtown off Interstate 10. These new state of the art facilities are located strategically to provide shipping service to all of San Diego County, parts of Orange and Riverside Counties and the entire state of Arizona.

This is one of the most frequently asked moving questions. Often you don’t know when exactly
you will move and thus you can’t schedule your move in advance. It is best though if you can
start contacting movers at least a month in advance. The earlier the better because then you
will have the time to research the moving companies and schedule your move for the desired
day.
This depends on many factors, such as the time of year, weather conditions, size of your
shipment, time required to load and unload, and the direction and distance your shipment
is traveling.
Because the furnishings of the average household will not fill a truck, it is often necessary
for two or more shipments to be loaded on the same truck. Each shipment is carefully
sectioned off from the others.
With the help of United’s computer-assisted dispatching system, pickup and delivery dates
are scheduled according to the origins and destinations of individual shipments on the trucks,
as well as shipment weight.
