West Hollywood Local Movers: from $99/hr

Queens Road Pickup

We contacted the client in advance to arrange the most convenient time window for our arrival. They confirmed to us that the morning would work out the best. It was a narrow street, and hillside areas like this had tight turns and limited room to turn around; in light of this, we chose an 18-foot box truck. The truck that would handle this move without a hitch.

The client confirmed the legal parking spot right away, but it was on another street behind the house. Our crew arrived in the morning, legally parked on a street behind the house, set out the cones behind the truck, and lowered the liftgate.

The house stood out from the whole block; it had its own patio, garden, BBQ area, and French doors. It was a pretty spacious house with a lot of items sorted out in different rooms, so each of us had a different job.

The gas grill and patio furniture were stacked right in the BBQ area. Dima and I wrapped it carefully in moving blankets and stored it on a moving dolly. We were moving the items down the hill right to the street where we parked our truck.

Dima went to the kitchen and brought out a wooden board right through the front door; he maneuvered it, and it fit through without a problem. He moved it past a large tree the same way down the street to the truck. The same thing he did with two small armchairs. Then I helped him store a stack of household boxes on a moving dolly, and we wheeled them out, right through a side passage all the way down. We were moving up and down until all the boxes were stacked in the corner of the truck.

Then Alik and Dima went to the bedroom, where the client showed two mattresses that were shrink-wrapped from the beginning, using the client's disposable supplies and materials that they had in spades. They were stacked against the truck wall and rode on their edges.

A dresser and three cardboard boxes went last. Nothing was complicated about it. Once we confirmed everything was loaded and strapped down, we pulled back the cones and drove away to Stanley Hills Drive.

Stanley Hills Drive Drop-off

Stanley Hills Drive sat above the street on a sloped lot. We parked legally at the curb where the client confirmed us. It was not a plain curb-to-the-door delivery; the house had a run of stone garden steps.

Alik stayed in the truck and was facilitating the unloading at first. He was handing us items down that needed to be moved. A gas grill and patio furniture went in first. Dima helped me move the items on a moving dolly up the stone garden steps through a stretch of fern planting. It was stored and unwrapped where the client pointed.

Then we brought in two mattresses on a dolly right to the bedroom, the same way, all the way up the stairs. They were unwrapped and put against the wall. Alik then did his part and carried in a dresser and three cardboard boxes on a moving dolly up the stairs into the house.

Then we teamed up and moved a wooden board and a stack of boxes on a moving dolly. It took some time to move it up the stairs. We left the items where the client showed us. Two small armchairs came in last. They were placed in the kitchen.

North Harper Avenue Pickup

We would like to know the most suitable time windows for our client before the move was arranged. They told us they would be busy in the afternoon, so the morning would work best. We picked an 18-foot box truck, the smallest of our fleet and the best pick for the load.

We arrived in the morning and parked legally at the curb right at the Romanesque Villa Apartments. We set out the cones in front of our truck and put down the ramp. The Romanesque Villa Apartments really stood out from the block. It was a multi-unit Spanish Colonial Revival tower that rose over the block. We entered the client's apartment using an alternate entrance, namely a wrought-iron gate. From that time, we moved everything on foot from the truck to the front door and right through the gate.

We laid the floor runners on the wooden floors at first. I took the hall where the clients had already packed their TV and Xbox in their original cartons and stacked them in the corner. I wrapped the items in the moving blankets on top of the cartons and carried them out to the truck by hand. The items were placed against the truck wall.

Kostya took the kitchen next and brought the microwave oven and kitchen supplies next. Everything was in the original cartons, just like the client wanted. They were placed in the corner of the truck.

Then we went to the bedroom for the sofabed. It was pretty small and compact and didn't need to be disassembled. So we just wrapped it in the moving blanket and wheeled it out on the moving dolly.

A stack of office boxes, sorted room by room, was loaded last. Nothing was left behind.

When the client confirmed that everything was loaded and on board, we pulled back the cones and drove away to North Curson Avenue.

North Curson Avenue Drop-off

North Curson Avenue was our destination. It was a quiet residential street with a lot of bungalows down the block. It was an ordinary truck-to-the-door carry; there were no stairs at all. We parked legally at the curb where the client confirmed. It was a short walkway from the truck to the front door.

I brought in the TV and Xbox straight to the hall where our clients pointed. The items were unwrapped and left there in their original cartons.

Kostya moved the microwave oven and kitchen supplies to the kitchen by hand. Everything was placed in the corner of the kitchen. I wheeled in the sofabed on a moving dolly to the bedroom. It fit through the front door without any problem.

And the stack of office boxes went in last. It was sorted room by room. The client did a quick walkthrough and confirmed that everything was unloaded and sorted out. They were happy with the provided service.

Sierra Alta Way Pickup

We would like to know the best time of arrival so we were in contact with the client ahead of time. The client contacted us through the messenger beforehand. He wanted to move to Melrose Avenue. They confirmed that the afternoon would be a suitable timetable since they would be busy in the morning. It was a light load, so the afternoon worked out pretty well. We chose an 18-foot box truck as it would fit the narrow WeHo street perfectly.

Sierra Alta sat above the Sunset Strip with the tall trees curving from both sides of this narrow street. The high-rise buildings were visible behind the street. The client confirmed the legal parking spot. We parked legally near the curb where the grade leveled out enough for the ramp. We pulled out, set the cones behind the truck, and started to load.

I took the hall first, where the client showed us the painting. It took some time to bubble wrap it and tape it down so it wouldn't shift during the move; then we wrapped it in a moving blanket on top before it even left the house. The client had a lot of disposable materials and supplies in spades that they gave us on move day; it really sped up the process.

Oleg went to the bedroom at the same time and brought out three nightstands that were sorted in the bedroom, and a dresser, one by one. Everything was moved on a moving dolly from the bedroom to the ramp.

Then we went to the kitchen, where the client pointed out a dining table and chairs. We took apart a dining table right on site: one tabletop, 4 legs, which were removed first, and one bag of hardware (screws, bolts, etc.) We wrapped the legs, tabletop, and chairs in moving blankets and carried them out on a moving dolly through the front door without a hitch. The items were stacked against the wall. The dresser came out last as it was the heaviest piece of that day.

The client did a quick walkthrough with Oleg to make sure that everything was sorted out and loaded. After the confirmation, we drove away to Melrose Avenue.

Melrose Avenue Drop-off

It was a single-story bungalow on Melrose Avenue. The client confirmed the place where we could legally occupy the curb. It was a nice and easy curb-to-the-door delivery with no strings attached. Oleg helped me carry in a dining table and 4 chairs on a moving dolly to the kitchen where the client showed us. It was reassembled right there, starting with the tabletop first, then we attached the four legs next; we used all the screws from the hardware bag.

Oleg also placed all kitchen appliances from the truck where the client wanted. I brought in a dresser and three nightstands on a moving dolly. Everything was sorted out room by room with nothing left behind.

The painting was stacked in the truck the longest until the client decided where it should be placed. Oleg helped me move it in the hall, fully wrapped; it reached the place without a mark on it.

The client was especially worried about the painting. But when they saw how we handled the move and carried the painting without a mark on it, they were happy.
