Parking, permits and access
Moving logistics in La Puente
Buildings and street access
- City code bars commercial vehicles over 6,000 pounds unladen from parking on any street, except while loading, unloading or doing service work at a property on the same block. Pickups and vans are exempt. Source: official La Puente rule
- Vehicles over 6,000 pounds gross may not use California Avenue, and commercial vehicles may not use Ferrero Lane. Source: official La Puente rule
- 76% of homes are single-family houses, so driveways, stairs and curb space matter more than elevators. Tell us about long driveways or steep streets.
- Apartment buildings with 5 or more units (20% of homes here) and HOA communities often ask movers for a certificate of insurance (COI). Ask for the requirements early; we send COIs the same day.
- 4% of homes were built before 1940, so most buildings have standard-width doors and stairwells. Walk-ups still change the crew size, so tell us the floor at both ends.
