Real Advice from Los Angeles Movers

We asked local movers about what you should know about moving in Los Angeles. (They’re really nice!)

"Please make sure to contact your pick-up and drop-off administrations for guidance on any parking permits necessary during the move or POD placement, since the movers are not responsible for parking permits. Other than that, the general rule of thumb is to make sure the truck or a POD have enough parking space with a close access to the pick-up or drop-off facility."

V&V Moving Profile Image - V&V Moving

"If you live in a highly-populated area like downtown Los Angeles or Hollywood, it's always best to secure parking a day before your move to avoid long carry. Not only do some movers charge for long carry, but it will lengthen the time of your move and will consequently cost more than it should have."

Darper Moving Profile Image - Darper Moving

""Storage Etc." at 8111 Deering Ave., Canoga Park, CA 91304 has the best rates in the area."

Major Neighborhoods in Los Angeles

Los Angeles, known as the City of Angels, is a sprawling metropolis that our movers understand how to navigate — no matter how crowded the area is. Still scouting the city? LA, of course, is home to Hollywood, but there are also other unique landmarks and sights, including delightfully bizarre attractions like The Museum of Jurassic Technology, and mainstays like The Last Bookstore, one of the most famous independent bookstores in the world!

Westlake

Westlake, just north of DTLA, is anything but sleepy; it's a bustling hub! The main attraction? It's MacArthur Park, which has an incredible lake reflecting the whole LA skyline. The neighborhood's favorite highway, Wilshire Boulevard, is your ticket to DTLA or a beach day in Santa Monica. (Getting a moving truck through that area is our specialty!)

Since Westlake is where so much action happens, you might need professional moving advice for optimal loading and unloading times.

Boyle Heights

Boyle Heights is on the east side of the LA River, and is a foodie paradise with walls like a canvas for the city's history. (Check out the famous Mariachi Plaza on the weekends!) Since Boyle Heights is all about community, getting local moving professionals who are intimately familiar with where you’re moving in or out of is critical to a smooth move, and will go a long way towards eliminating any surprises.

Koreatown

Koreatown, or “K-Town LA," is not just the heart of the LA-Korean community, but is host to a full spectrum of cultures all living among its many neon-lit signs. Koreatown is located in the center of LA and is equipped with various transit options that make it convenient for travel. And like a lot of Los Angeles, its high-rise apartments will often come equipped with elevators (good), but can be narrow and difficult to get in and out of (bad). Booking movers early helps avoid heavy traffic, especially around Irolo Street and W 8th Street.

Lincoln Heights

Lincoln Heights is the OG suburban charmer of Los Angeles, with old-school charm stemming from its Victorian-era houses; it’s a vintage gem along the riverbank. You also can't talk about Lincoln Heights without mentioning the Los Angeles Historic State Park, or as locals call it, "The Cornfield." Lincoln Heights is currently experiencing a revitalization, so lots of movers in recent years have gotten intimately familiar with the area between the Pasadena Freeway and I-10. We’ll make sure your LA moving pros are among those most familiar with the area!

I ‘m sorry that I can’t remember the two men’s name. I believe one was Daniel. They both were great and professional and very friendly and sooo good. They also loaded 2 cubes in less than 2 hrs. Highly recommend those two!!!

These guys are awesome! They started right on time and worked hard til it was done. Super nice team, very friendly, very accommodating to any questions. Packed the Pod like Tetris - fit so much stuff in there and tied everything down. We are very happy and relieved! Definitely recommend.

Patriot One Movers Profile Image

Frank and his team arrived on time, and ready to work. Our trailer had been loaded poorly, and we had many damaged items. Patriot helped us document those damages, and carefully handled each and every item they unloaded as though it were their own. They were a very professional and well-oiled team. We recommend Patriot without hesitation, and intend to use them for any future moves.

Jon and the guy with him were great! They were early, but we were delayed because a car parked behind moving truck. They didn't wait, they got everything moved downstairs from the apartment building and had ready as soon as truck was ready. Great job. Professional. Efficient. Nice people. Would definitely use again if needed.

The 2 guys that helped with my furniture and box loading did a great job! They were kind respectful and knew what they were doing. They had to unload the items, in the truck, and reload into a container for transport. They were miracle workers to get it all to fit. I definitely would recommend.

They moved all the heavy stuff down the stairs. They listened to all of our instructions and gladly agreed. They gave good advice when asked. It was so very easy for us just to watch them. Great attitude. They worked smoothly and efficiently.
