Gated homes and long driveways
Many Brentwood homes are behind gates with long driveways or hillside access. Share gate codes and access times, and tell us whether the truck can come up the driveway or must stay on the street.
Larger homes often move faster with three or four movers. A room list or photos help us suggest a crew.
Apartments south of Sunset
South of Sunset Blvd, Brentwood has many apartment and condo buildings, often with garage loading and elevator reservations. Ask management about moving hours and certificate of insurance requirements.
Traffic on Sunset and San Vicente can be heavy at rush hour. A mid-morning start often helps.
Parking the truck
Brentwood is part of the City of Los Angeles. Check Los Angeles Department of Transportation guidance and the posted signs on your block when planning where the truck will stand. Confirm restrictions for the actual date, not on the basis of an empty curb during an earlier visit.
What a move in Brentwood costs
Two movers and a truck cost $2.50 per billable minute for the first 180 minutes ($150/hour), then $2.15 per minute ($129/hour). Three movers: $3.40 then $2.90; four movers: $4.30 then $3.65. No 3-hour minimum. One-minute billing. Fuel included. We confirm rates and scope by text before moving day.
Billable minutes = work at the addresses + 2 × actual driving time between them. For example, 40 minutes loading, a 15-minute drive and 20 minutes unloading make 90 billable minutes: $225 with two movers and a truck. This illustrates billing, not the duration of your move.
