Many Montrose blocks rely entirely on street parking, and the crepe myrtles and live oaks along them sit low enough to matter when a truck pulls in. We scout truck placement before moving day instead of circling the block that morning.
Montrose packs several building eras into a few square miles, and each one moves differently.
Original hardwoods, plaster walls and narrow doorways in Hyde Park, Cherryhurst, Avondale and Winlow Place.
Shared driveways, exterior stairs and tight interior turns that call for measuring before lifting.
Newer buildings along Montrose Boulevard and West Gray with elevator reservations, loading rules and COI paperwork.
Montrose is one of the neighborhoods where our crews have the deepest street-level experience. We know that many blocks have no off-street parking, that vintage stairwells will not take every sofa, and that a 26-foot truck has to be positioned around the trees, not under them.
A move here is not the same job as a move in a suburb with a three-car garage, so we plan it differently: measured, padded and mapped before the truck leaves our warehouse.

From Montrose to anywhere in the U.S..
Many Montrose blocks have street parking only. We check your street during the quote and pick the closest workable spot, keeping clear of low branches and driveways.
Yes. We plan the carry path down exterior staircases in advance, pad railings and corners, and keep an eye on the weather for that part of the move.
We measure large pieces and doorways before moving day. When a piece will not clear, we take it apart or find another route rather than force it.
Yes. We reserve the elevator, confirm the loading zone and send your building the certificate of insurance it requires before moving day.
