Cottage, duplex and walk-up moves on Norma Triangle's short streets, with a reserved space and the right size of truck
About Packing & Crating in Norma Triangle
Moving in Norma Triangle, the West Hollywood wedge of narrow lots and early 1900s cottages between Doheny Drive, Holloway Drive and Santa Monica Boulevard. Popeye Moving & Storage plans the permit and the right size of truck for these short streets.
Norma Triangle is the right-angled wedge of West Hollywood with Doheny Drive and the Beverly Hills line on the west, Holloway Drive and Sunset Boulevard to the north and Santa Monica Boulevard to the south. Its short streets, among them Norma Place, Clark, Lloyd, Cynthia, Dicks and Hammond, were named for Los Angeles Pacific Railroad officers and their families, and the small early 1900s cottages built for railway workers still set the narrow lot pattern. West Hollywood Elementary sits inside the triangle on Hammond Street and the Troubadour marks its southern edge. Older cottages, duplexes and small apartment buildings on narrow streets leave very little kerb space, so here the parking reservation and the size of the vehicle matter more than the size of the crew.
Local Issues
Common Packing & Crating Issues in Norma Triangle
Narrow streets and little kerb
Short streets with small lots leave few spaces, so a reserved space and a right-sized truck decide how the day goes.
Permit lead time misread
The 5 business day rule counts from payment, so applying 5 days out can leave you without a permit.
Oversized threshold
The 24 foot and three-quarter ton limits catch most moving trucks, which changes the permit category.
Walk-up apartments
Second and third floor homes with no lift make stair time the main factor in the hours.
Small cottage interiors
Early 1900s cottages have narrow doors and tight side paths that limit what passes through intact.

Some items should not travel in a carton, however well padded. Custom crating gives a single piece its own wooden case, measured and braced so it cannot move inside. Popeye Moving & Storage crates art, glass, stone and fragile furniture for local moves, long distance moves and export shipments.

Packing & Crating in Norma Triangle - FAQs
Plan on 8 business days. The city's minimum is 5 business days, but it is measured from when payment is received, and payment processing takes 2 to 3 business days after you apply. Reservations are generally one day, 8am to 5pm. Parking Enforcement posts the signs, and a car parked in the reserved space during the permit period is illegally parked.
Full-service packing in the Los Angeles area typically runs $300 to $800 for a one-bedroom. That is a typical range, not a quote. How much you own and how fragile it is shape the figure, and your price is set in writing before anything is loaded, with a Not To Exceed figure on a move inside California.
No. Popeye offers free in-home and video estimates, and a video survey can lead to a guaranteed binding price. For a Norma Triangle cottage or walk-up, show us the front path, the stairs and the street outside so we can choose the vehicle.
Not always. The streets are short and narrow and the kerb space is limited, so a smaller vehicle is often the better choice. Anything over 24 feet long or more than three-quarters of a ton counts as an Oversized Move under West Hollywood rules, so we match the truck and the permit category before applying.
Yes. The city states that if the signs are missing, the permit holder may still park in the reserved spaces as long as they have and display the approved permit. Keep a copy of the permit to hand on the day.
Small rooms, narrow doors and side paths mean large pieces may need to come apart or be measured before the day. We note those at the estimate, and our Furniture Assembly & Disassembly service takes care of beds, tables and wardrobes that will not pass through as they are.
