When you’ve been moving families and businesses for nearly 80 years, you learn that a successful move is about more than just trucks and boxes — it’s about trust, care, and community. Since 1946, Colonial Van & Storage has proudly served the greater Sacramento area as one of the region’s most experienced and reliable moving companies.
Founded shortly after World War II, Colonial Van & Storage began as a small, family-run operation helping local residents relocate across Northern California. As Sacramento grew from a quiet capital city into a thriving metropolitan hub, Colonial grew right alongside it — earning a reputation for dependable service, professionalism, and hometown care.
Today, we’re proud to still be locally owned and operated, offering a full range of local, long-distance, and international moving services, all backed by decades of experience and a team that treats every move as if it were their own.
While many moving companies have come and gone over the years, Colonial’s commitment to Sacramento has never wavered. Our customers continue to count on us for:
Local expertise – We know every neighborhood, from East Sacramento to Elk Grove, and how to make moves in our region smooth and efficient.
Personalized service – Whether it’s a downtown apartment or a family home in the suburbs, we tailor every move to your needs.
Experienced professionals – Our crews are highly trained, background-checked, and committed to providing a stress-free experience.
Community focus – For decades, we’ve supported local events, organizations, and causes that make Sacramento such a great place to live.
As we approach our 80th anniversary, Colonial Van & Storage remains as dedicated as ever to the Sacramento community. We’re proud of where we’ve been — and excited for what’s ahead. Whether you’re moving across town or across the state, we’re here to make your next move simple, safe, and seamless.
Because after nearly 80 years, we’ve learned that what really matters isn’t just where you’re going — it’s how you get there.
