Movers in Van Nuys
Van Nuys is a San Fernando Valley neighborhood in the City of Los Angeles. Here is what to plan for when you move there, from Kobe Moving in Van Nuys.
Moving in Van Nuys
Kobe Moving works out of Van Nuys, at 15049 Raymer Street, so a Van Nuys move starts close to home for the crew and the truck. Van Nuys sits in the middle of the San Fernando Valley, with the 405 running through it and the 101 along its southern edge, which makes it a practical starting point for moves across the Valley and over the hill.
Housing in Van Nuys is a mix of single-family streets, garden-style apartment complexes and newer multi-story buildings along the main boulevards. Each one moves differently, so the quote form asks about the size of your home and anything that affects access.
Our base is in Van Nuys itself, at 15049 Raymer St. Most Van Nuys addresses are only a few minutes from the yard.
What to plan for in Van Nuys
Large apartment complexes
Many complexes off Sepulveda Boulevard and Van Nuys Boulevard have one shared loading area or a gated garage that a box truck cannot enter. Ask the manager where a truck can stop and whether moves have set hours.
Rush-hour rules on the boulevards
Van Nuys, Sepulveda and Victory Boulevards are busy and many blocks have posted rush-hour parking limits. Check the signs on your block a few days ahead. A side street or alley is often the better place to load.
Short Valley moves
A move from Van Nuys to Sherman Oaks, North Hollywood or Encino is a short drive, so most of the time goes into loading and unloading. Packed, sealed and labeled boxes save the most time.
Summer heat
Summer afternoons in the Valley are much hotter than on the coast. An early start is easier on the crew, on you and on things like candles, electronics and plants.

Van Nuys moving questions

What should I ask my Van Nuys apartment manager before move day?
Ask about allowed move hours, where a box truck can park or load, whether there is an elevator to reserve, and whether the building needs anything from the mover, such as a certificate of insurance.
