Walk streets and alley access
Some Venice homes are on walk streets, where there is no vehicle access to the front door, and others are reached from narrow alleys. Tell us how the truck reaches your home and the walking distance to the door.
Carrying time counts as working time, with no separate long-carry fee. Planning the route in advance keeps it short.
Parking and timing near the beach
Parking is tight across Venice and weekend beach traffic can be heavy. A weekday move is often easier. Check posted signs for your block on the moving date.
Small homes and apartments are common here, so a two-mover crew with no 3-hour minimum is often enough.
Parking the truck
Venice 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 Venice 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.
