Commercial Moving in Venice, Los Angeles
Serving ZIP 90291, 90292
Moves from Venice walk streets, canal lanes and alley-served lots, with the carry distance measured before a date is set.
About Commercial Moving in Venice
Venice runs from the Santa Monica line and Rose Avenue south to Ballona Creek across ZIPs 90291 and 90292. Walk streets and canal homes have no vehicle access, alleys are tight, and truck permits go through LADOT, not Santa Monica.
Venice sits inside the City of Los Angeles, covering ZIPs 90291 and 90292 from the Santa Monica line and Rose Avenue south to Ballona Creek. Lincoln Boulevard, Abbot Kinney Boulevard, Pacific Avenue, the Speedway alley and Ocean Front Walk form its spines. The housing is unusually mixed: original beach bungalows and cottages, 1920s duplexes, courtyard buildings, converted industrial spaces, live-work units and narrow contemporary houses on small lots with roof decks and several internal flights. Because Venice is Los Angeles and not Santa Monica, kerb space for a truck is reserved with LADOT temporary parking restriction signs, which carry a lead time of five working days.
Local Issues
Common Commercial Moving Issues in Venice
No vehicle access on walk streets and canals
The truck stops at the nearest legal position and every piece is carried to the door, which sets crew size and time.
Narrow, blocked alleys
Rear alleys are tight and often obstructed, so a smaller vehicle with more trips can be the practical choice.
Contested kerb space
Residents, beach visitors and Abbot Kinney trade compete for the same spaces, so LADOT signs are worth posting.
Vertical contemporary houses
Narrow new houses stack several internal flights with tight turns, so floor count understates the carry.
Filming and event closures
Shoots and events can remove parking or close a block, so the date is checked close to the move.

What we offer in Venice
Our Commercial Moving Services in Venice
Office & Business Moving in Venice
Most office moves are decided by the building, not the truck: when the service lift is free, when the dock is open and what the certificate of insurance has to say. Popeye Moving & Storage sorts that out first, then plans the move so your team is working again on the first morning in the new space.
Learn more →Corporate Relocation in Venice
A corporate relocation is rarely one move. It is usually an office, an archive, a few executive suites and often several employees' homes, each with its own building rules and timeline. Popeye Moving & Storage has served Los Angeles since 1994 and builds the sequence for all of it before anything is loaded.
Learn more →Retail & Restaurant Moving in Venice
A shop or restaurant loses money every day its doors are shut, so the move has to fit between the last service and the reopening. Popeye Moving & Storage plans around those two dates, the landlord's rules at both addresses and the trades who must disconnect equipment before our crew lifts it.
Learn more →Warehouse & Industrial Moving in Venice
A warehouse move is planned around weight, dock access and what has to keep shipping while the move happens. Popeye Moving & Storage assesses both facilities first, then phases the work so orders keep going out and inventory is counted at each end.

What Customers Say About Our Commercial Moving in Venice
Real reviews from Venice and nearby Los Angeles neighborhoods.
“Porch pirates work our block by the Mid-Wilshire curb. They stayed with the truck and the Mid-Wilshire walk-through closed every latch.”
“Overnight drizzle glazed the Marina del Rey gate. Salt on the boards, slow dollies, and the Marina del Rey tile never spidered.”
“The cheap builder panel by the Marina del Rey curb already hummed. They kept magnets and metal dollies off it in Marina del Rey.”
Commercial Moving in Venice - FAQs
Venice is in the City of Los Angeles, so the process is LADOT's, not Santa Monica's. Temporary street parking restriction signs reserve the kerb, with a stated lead time of five working days and a non-refundable fee; applications can be made online, by phone or in person at a DOT Public Service Center. An oversize vehicle parking permit covers the truck's size and overnight parking for up to three days but reserves no space. Commercial trucks with a logo or longer than 22 feet may not park overnight on city streets. Check LADOT for current fees.
Typical Los Angeles ranges are $350 to $650 for a one-bedroom apartment local move, and $150 to $200 per hour for a two-person crew and truck. These are typical ranges, not a quote. A walk street carry or an alley shuttle is priced at the estimate, local hourly moves follow California's double drive time convention, and on a move inside California the price is set in writing with a Not To Exceed figure before anything is loaded.
Yes. Popeye offers free in-home estimates and free video estimates. For a walk street or canal property, an in-home visit lets us measure the carry from the nearest legal truck position and check any bridge or gate on the route. After a video survey we can also give a guaranteed binding price.
Yes. These homes have no vehicle access, so every item is hand-carried between the door and the truck, sometimes a considerable distance and sometimes over a bridge. That changes crew size, equipment and time, so we qualify the property on the phone before confirming a date and build the carry into the written price.
Often it will not. Venice alleys are narrow, shared with garages, gates and rubbish collection, and frequently blocked by parked cars, which makes entering or reversing a full-size truck difficult. A smaller vehicle making more trips is regularly the correct method here, and we decide that at the estimate so the cost is known in advance.
An early weekday start is worth more in Venice than in most neighborhoods. Weekend and summer visitors fill every space near the beach and boardwalk, and Abbot Kinney draws its own trade through the day and evening. Venice is also a frequent filming location with regular events that can close a block or remove parking, so we check your date rather than assuming the street will match the survey.
