    We have moved 5 times in the past 6 years and this one by far was the easiest and smoothest because of Nigel and his crew! They were on time, worked fast and nothing broke during transport. Also, best prices around. Highly recommend this team for your next move!!!!

  • Steve Kelly

    Just used the "Best California Movers" team for my move to Northern California. What a fantastic team! Arrived on time, extremely professional, handled my furniture with care and were extremely friend! Thank you Kevin and team! First Class Service!!!! Highly recommended!!!

  • Honoree T.

    Best California Movers stayed true to their name! Sam and Roma moved my belongings from Downtown LA to the Valley, and I couldn't be happier with their work. I have a lot of mirrored furniture, and they handled every piece with care. They arrived on time, packed thoroughly, and moved quickly while making sure everything was protected. Definitely worth it. I'm glad I chose them, and I'll request Sam and Roma again for any future move!

  • Lauren Glass

    I was shocked how kind and supportive they were with my move! Very delicate with my stuff, not overly rushed and very efficient. Super considerate about my important items and where I ultimately wanted everything to go. Will be saving their contact for any future moves. Highly, highly recommending to my friends and family! Nigel and Sula were the best

  • Arjuna C

    Dmitrii Parii, ***** *****, and their teams provided exceptional service for our 2 bedroom full service local move in ******. To be *****, I was weary of being baited by the *** algorithm and how it handles a company called Best California Movers. One might also be lead to believe they have a suspicious amount of positive reviews. And Im relieved to say I would wager they actually deserve the name. Quoting and Booking:***** *****, with follow up from his colleagues ***** and ********, made it easy to get a quote, have all my questions answered, and finally sign to book with confidence. I had several rounds of questions from initial contact to agreement review and they gave quick and detailed information, such as the cost of materials and boxes, liability for any building damage, and estimation of how long the job would take. Other companies I requested quotes for recommended 2 or 3 crew, but ***** recommended 4 off rip for a speedier move and it turned out to be a great fit for our 2 bedroom local move. The Move: Dmitrii Parii and his team did a remarkable job. Although we moved from a 2BR apartment, we actually have quite a lot of stuff from previously moving from a 3 story house. Weve hired other movers before and Dmitriis team moved the same amount in roughly half the time, and that included disassembly and reassembly of some of our key furniture such as our bed and two standing desks with mounted monitors. His team arrived within the estimated time, worked efficiently even though I offered them snacks and to take a lunch break, and handled all of our belongings carefully. He also came prepared with many tools for disassembly and reassembly. To be honest, I expected this job to take 9-10 hours based on our previous movers and they did it in 7. I also had a fair amount of questions for Dmitrii, including with regard to the final invoice, and he was a great sport about answering all of them.

  • Georgy G.

    I had the best moving experience with Tole and Stephan! They were efficient and hardworking.

  • Dana S.

    These guys had an absolute first class job, they were very tidy, took care of all of our unique items that were very fragile and made a point to make sure that we didn't over lift anything. We love these guys! Roman and his team were the best!!!

  • Derek Foulks

    Excellent service - communication was great and transparent. Team was attentive and hard working. Will be using them again for my next move!

  • Asia P.

    Sam and Serg were amazing and wrapped all of my furniture and moved everything quickly. I would definitely recommend and have Best California move me again. They also took an electronic box for me so I would not have to take it myself to the recycling place.

  • Sarah H.

    Roman, Fedor, and Alex were fantastic! They worked quickly and efficiently, carefully packing, wrapping, and protecting all of our furniture and belongings. They handled everything with great care, and I couldn't have asked for a better moving crew. I also really appreciated how flexible and accommodating the company was when I had to reschedule my move several times due to my house falling out of escrow more than once. Their understanding and professionalism made a stressful situation much easier. I highly recommend both this crew and the company!

Moving in Glendale — The City’s Requirements

Glendale's housing stock is more varied than almost anywhere else in Los Angeles County. Spanish Colonial Revival homes from the 1920s in Rossmoyne. Modern high-rise apartments near The Americana at Brand and the Glendale Galleria corridor. Hillside properties with steep driveways and narrow approaches in Adams Hill, Chevy Chase Canyon, and Verdugo Woodlands. Dense multi-family buildings where on-street parking is already in high demand on a Tuesday morning. Armenian community homes are often multigenerational and furnished with heirloom pieces passed down through the family for decades.
Every one of those property types requires a different plan. Here are some common scenarios that we experience on almost every Glendale move:

  • High-Rise COI and Elevator Requirements

    The apartment and condo towers near downtown Glendale and the Americana at Brand corridor routinely require a Certificate of Insurance naming the building as an additional insured before the move can proceed. Most also require advance elevator reservations — often 72 hours ahead, sometimes a full week. Miss either one and our crew won’t make it past the lobby. To avoid this, we prepare your COI ahead of time, and you'll need to submit it and book the elevator with your building before move day.

  • HOA Move-In Windows and Building Restrictions

    Many Glendale condo and townhouse communities have rules that govern when and how moves can take place. These may include weekday-only moving hours, restrictions on after-hours work, required elevator padding, and building deposits. Missing the approved window can mean a postponed move with nowhere for the crew or truck to go. Just tell us when, and we plan around these restrictions in advance.

  • Pre-War Homes with Narrow Stairwells and Original Floors

    Glendale's older housing stock, particularly in Rossmoyne, Adams Hill, and near the Brand Park corridor, was built well before modern furniture dimensions existed. Narrow stairwells, tight landings, doorways under 30 inches, and original hardwood floors that require protection throughout the move are standard for these properties. We plan for them from the estimate, not as a surprise mid-move.

  • Multi-Generational Homes and Heirloom Furnishings

    Glendale has one of the largest Armenian-American communities in the country. With that comes a significant volume of multi-generational family homes with heirloom furniture, antique pieces, and items that matter far beyond their replacement cost. We handle these with the same care we give high-value specialty items: wrapped, padded, and not handed off to whoever is available that morning.

  • Truck Parking on Downtown Glendale's High-Traffic Corridors

    On high-traffic corridors near downtown Glendale, positioning a moving truck without advance coordination can result in citations, obstructed access, or both. For addresses where street parking is the only option, we'll flag what's needed so you have time to arrange permits or a loading zone before moving day.

None of this is unusual to us. It is built into how we plan every Glendale move.

Frequently Asked Questions About Moving in Glendale

Still have questions? Our support team will be happy to explain everything to you before dispatching the vehicle.

01 My condo building near The Americana at Brand requires a Certificate of Insurance. Do you have documentation?

Yes. We can prepare a Certificate of Insurance naming your building as an additional insured. This is a routine requirement at most managed mid-rise and high-rise buildings in the Glendale area. We’ll get it to you well before your move date, so you can submit it to your building management and avoid any last-minute issues.

02 My house in Rossmoyne has very narrow stairwells and original hardwood floors. How do you prepare for that?

Older Glendale homes with pre-war construction require planning before the crew’s arrival. On move day, we arrive with floor runners for hardwood protection, correctly sized blankets for tight passages, stair tools where they’re needed, and a crew familiar with this type of property. Since we already know what the house looks like, there’s no improvisation.

03 Do I need to coordinate parking to move in Glendale?

It depends on your address. For properties near Brand Boulevard, Verdugo Road, or other high-traffic corridors in the downtown area, parking a full-size moving truck without advance coordination can result in citations or blocked access. For hillside properties in Adams Hill, Chevy Chase Canyon, or Verdugo Woodlands, truck access may require staging assessment. We’ll flag what your specific address requires during the estimate, so you have time to arrange permits or parking with the city or your building.

04 My Adams Hill property has a steep driveway — I'm not sure a moving truck can access it. What do you do?

Steep or narrow driveway access is one of the more common planning conversations we have for Glendale hillside properties. During the estimate, we can assess driveway grade, approach width, and street clearance. If the address requires staging from a secondary location or a smaller vehicle for the final approach, that is discussed and planned before your move.

05 How long does a typical local move within Glendale take?

Moving a two-bedroom apartment within Glendale typically takes 5–8 hours (doesn’t include box packing, if needed). Properties with stair-only access, required elevator windows, hillside staging, or unusually long carry distances from truck to door can add time compared to a straightforward flat-building move. All of these variables are factored into your estimate, ensuring the final time and cost match what you were quoted.

06 Can you move a piano or large antique furniture out of a Glendale hillside home?

Yes. Hillside properties in Rossmoyne, Adams Hill, and Verdugo Woodlands present some of the more complex specialty item challenges in the area, such as steep external staircases, narrow interior passages, and furniture that was brought in during a renovation before the current configuration existed. It’s standard for us to handle pianos, antiques, oversized artwork, and specialty items, with the equipment and crew the specific job requires. Just make sure you let us know in advance!

07 What if there's a gap between my Glendale move-out and my new move-in date?

We offer short-term and long-term storage for these situations. Your belongings go from your Glendale address directly into secure storage and are delivered to your new location when it is ready. This is a common scenario when lease timing and purchase closings don’t align — which, in the Los Angeles market, they often don’t.
