Most of our apartment moves here take 3 to 6 hours with 3 movers, based on 16 local apartment moves since 2021. Stairs and the walk to the truck add the most time, so tell us the floor at both ends.
Often, yes. 65% of our Atwater Village moves were booked within a week of moving day, and half were booked 5 days ahead or less. Month-end and weekend dates go first (40% of our moves here fall on a weekend), so call as soon as you have a date.
Some will. Only 23% of homes here are in buildings with 5 or more units, but HOAs and managed buildings often ask movers for a COI. Ask early and send us the requirements; we send COIs the same day.

Trash: LA Sanitation & Environment (LASAN) for single-family homes; apartment buildings with 5 or more units use recycLA franchise haulers. Start service a few days before move day so the lights and water are on when the truck arrives.
Usually, with a plan. On LAFD Red Flag days, cars parked at posted Red Flag no-parking signs in Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones (mostly hillside areas) are towed. Give us both addresses and we'll pick the truck size and where it parks.
