Hiring in California: license and permit checks

California requires a CSLB contractor license when a project totals $1,000 or more in labor and materials, or when a building permit is needed or workers are employed. Ask for the license number and check it with CSLB; tree service (D-49) and roofing (C-39) contractors must carry workers’ compensation per CSLB.

Ask the provider for the license or registration number if their trade requires one, and ask about insurance. Confirm city or county permits with the local building department and get a written scope of work.

Does this include a moving truck or driver?

No. This niche is labor-only loading and unloading help or moving items within a property. You arrange and drive or separately contract the truck, trailer or container; it is not a truck-and-driver household-goods moving service. Border Quotes only makes referrals.

What equipment and item details should I share?

List heavy, fragile or oversized items, stairs and carrying distances. Ask who supplies dollies, pads and straps, which items are excluded and how damage coverage applies.

Can helpers pack boxes or assemble furniture?

List packing, disassembly and reassembly separately from loading or unloading. Agree these tasks, materials and handling limits directly with the independent provider.

What licensing or registration should I discuss?

Labor-only loading and unloading usually does not need a state trade license. Cities or counties may require local business registration or a permit, and some states register certain businesses. Full-service moving companies may need registration in some states. Ask the provider to confirm requirements for the exact labor-only scope.
