Storage Solutions in Los Angeles, CA

Moves that start and end inside California are regulated by the Department of Consumer Affairs Bureau of Household Goods and Services (BHGS), not the CPUC, which stopped regulating household movers on July 1, 2018 under Senate Bill 19. Popeye Moving & Storage operates under CAL T 189749 for moves inside California, holds USDOT 1472924 and MC 498816C for interstate work, and is fully insured. Storage requested as part of a move, for up to 90 days, is storage-in-transit and remains a regulated mover service under Maximum Rate Tariff 4. Past 90 days, goods are held under the warehouse storage agreement and California Commercial Code Division 7, not the Self-Service Storage Facility Act, because vaulted storage gives no customer access to a unit. You can check any mover's permit with BHGS at bhgs.dca.ca.gov or on (916) 999-2041 before you book, and complaints about a California household mover go to BHGS.

Yes. Estimates are free, including in-home and video estimates, and the survey tells us how many vaults your goods need. If storage is part of a move, the moving price is set in writing before anything is loaded, with a Not To Exceed figure on a move inside California. Call (310) 823-9510 - the office is open 6 AM to 9 PM, seven days a week, including Sunday.

With self-storage you rent a unit, hold the key and move goods in and out yourself. With vaulted storage there is no unit and no key: our crews pack your goods into sealed wooden vaults at pickup, the vaults are moved by forklift and kept inside our climate controlled warehouse, and goods are handled fewer times overall. Retrieval is arranged with our office, since the warehouse has to bring out and open the vault.

Goods are placed into vaults at the Mar Vista warehouse the same day as pickup, with no overnight hold on the truck. That keeps the time your belongings spend in transit short and means they go straight into a climate controlled building.

We store household furniture, boxes, clothing and appliances, commercial furniture, files and stock, and items such as wine, fine art, pianos and chandeliers. We do not store vehicles of any kind. Hazardous materials, including gasoline, propane, paint and solvents, are not accepted, and perishable food, plants and open liquids should not go into storage.

As a typical Los Angeles range, never a quote, local residential moving runs $150 to $200 per hour for a two-person crew and truck, and a one-bedroom apartment local move runs $350 to $650. Full-service packing for a three-bedroom runs $600 to $1,500. Your actual price is set in writing, with a Not To Exceed figure on a move inside California, before anything is loaded.

Popeye holds CAL T 189749 for moves inside California and USDOT 1472924 and MC 498816C for interstate work, and is fully insured. California household movers are regulated by the Department of Consumer Affairs Bureau of Household Goods and Services, the BHGS, on (916) 999-2041. Authority moved there on July 1 2018 under SB 19, so it is not the CPUC.

Yes. Popeye offers free in-home and video estimates across Los Angeles. After a video survey it can give a guaranteed binding price, and on a move inside California the price is set in writing with a Not To Exceed figure before anything is loaded. A verbal hourly rate over the phone is not an estimate.

Yes, full-service vaulted storage at Popeye's own warehouse at 5509 1/2 S Centinela Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90066, in Mar Vista. Goods are placed into vaults at the warehouse the same day as pickup, with no overnight hold on the truck. There is no unit or key, crews handle your goods, the space is climate controlled for temperature and humidity, and there is no minimum or maximum term. Household and commercial goods are accepted; vehicles are not.

Beverly Hills Post Office addresses are City of Los Angeles despite the 90210 ZIP, so LADOT rules apply, not Beverly Hills rules. Likewise Marina Peninsula and Silver Strand are City of Los Angeles, while Marina del Rey proper is unincorporated county. Popeye confirms jurisdiction from the parcel, never the postal name.

Yes, but these homes cannot be reached by any vehicle, so they are never quoted as a normal job. Popeye qualifies them on the phone, plans the carry from the nearest legal truck position and includes it in the written estimate. On hillside streets a shuttle from a smaller vehicle is the professional method and is priced at the estimate.

Yes. Dodger games can make an Echo Park move impractical, and SoFi Stadium and Intuit Dome event days affect moves near Inglewood. Popeye checks the event calendar before confirming a date.
