Registering out of state cars in California

I know a lot on this board talk about moving out of Cali, but I for one have been trying to move back there for 10 years ;-) It is getting closer to reality, but one caveat to our move (other than jobs, home sale, kids schools) is that I currently own 4 old cars (and a modern one)...

All of them are pre-Smog as far as I know (68 to 73), so only the family car will need a SMOG certificate, correct ? I understand an inspection is required for out of state cars.... As far as the DMV goes, I don't see myself booking 5 separate appointments to get the cars inspected. Is there a pay-service that comes to your location (presumably car storage, since I won't have a big garage initially, or maybe ever) to do whatever the DMV requires and saves you from having to show up with all cars in person ?

Debating if I should thin the herd before moving, that's a lot of shipping $$$ ;-( Then again I know what i have now, if I sell I'll re-buy stuff that's probably not in as good a condition....
