Lincoln grew faster than any city in the country of its size between 2000 and 2010, and the housing records it: 12,726 of its 20,779 homes were built in that one decade. Ninety-one per cent are detached and barely one in twenty is in a building with other homes. So the access is usually easy and the load is usually large — and the variable that actually moves the invoice is the drive, because Lincoln sits about thirty miles from the Capitol.

Six in ten homes are from one decade
ACS counts 12,726 of 20,779 units built between 2000 and 2009, and only 1,689 from 1979 or earlier — the newest stock of any town we serve. Wide doors and straight stairs, and a garage that has had twenty years to fill up. Tell us about the garage when you book; it is the single biggest surprise on a job here.
Flat floor, hilly eastern edge
Sampled across the boundary the land runs 103 to 579 feet, but the median is 159 — most of Lincoln is valley floor and the height is concentrated at the eastern edge, where Twelve Bridges and Sun City Lincoln Hills sit. Which side of town you are on changes the carry more than the address does.
Master-planned means gates and private roads
Open map data records 145 gates and 316 private or restricted roads inside the city, second only to El Dorado Hills. Give us the gate code and the association contact when you book, so the crew is expected rather than explaining itself at the entrance.
Thirty miles, and the tariff doubles the drive
Lincoln is about thirty miles from downtown Sacramento and ten north of Roseville. California requires the driving time between your two addresses to be billed twice on every hourly local move, whatever the distance, so on a long run that line is real money. It is on the estimate before you book, not discovered afterwards.
How a move here is charged
Easy Move Sacramento charges one hourly rate with the truck inside it. You are billed for the loading, the unloading and double the drive between your two addresses, on a 4-hour minimum — $516 with two movers, at $129 an hour.
California bills that drive twice over — Maximum Rate Tariff 4, Item 36. It applies to every hourly local move, whatever the distance. It is the state tariff rather than our surcharge, and it is on the estimate before you book.
Rates: $129 an hour for two movers, $179 for three, $219 for four.
New here, not new to this
We are the Sacramento branch of Easy Move Florida, which has been moving families since 2021 and holds 4.7 on Thumbtack from 33 reviews and 5.0 on Google from 8. Thumbtack publishes a review only against a job booked through it; Google goes by its own genuine-experience policies. Both show every review rather than a chosen few. Those reviews belong to the Easy Move Florida office and to the same owner who will run your move here; Sacramento has just opened, and our own reviews will come from our first jobs in the metro.
Thumbtack →Questions people ask
Is Lincoln inside your area?
Yes. Rocklin, Roseville and Lincoln are all normal bookings. The county line does not change the hourly rate; the drive time between your two addresses does, and it is written on the estimate.
How much does a move in Lincoln cost?
Four billable hours is the minimum, at the hourly rate for your crew size, with the truck inside that rate. Billable time is the loading, the unloading and double the drive between your addresses. On a run this far out the drive is a real part of the total, which is why we show it separately.
Do you go into Sun City Lincoln Hills?
Yes. It is an association-governed community, so tell us the gate and whether they want a certificate of insurance, and we will arrange it with the office before the day.
Can you take a four-bedroom house with a full garage?
Yes, and that is the common shape of a job here. Say what is in the garage, the shed and the loft when you book — those three decide the hours, and we would rather have them in the estimate than in a surprise.
