Storage Solutions in Redondo Beach, 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.

Typical Los Angeles ranges are $150 to $200 per hour for a two-person crew and truck on local residential moves, and $350 to $650 for a one-bedroom apartment local move. These are typical ranges, not a quote. Your price depends on your move, including carry distance where no space can be reserved, and on a move inside California it is set in writing before anything is loaded, with a Not To Exceed figure.

Yes. 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 Bureau of Household Goods and Services (BHGS), not the CPUC, since July 1 2018 under SB 19. California requires a written estimate, and the Not To Exceed figure agreed in writing is what caps your bill.

Yes. In-home and video estimates are free, and a video survey can lead to a guaranteed binding price. Show us the parking situation, the stairs or lift, and the distance from the curb to your door, because on a Redondo job those decide the hours more than the furniture does.

Yes. Popeye offers full-service vaulted storage at its own warehouse at 5509 1/2 S Centinela Ave in Mar Vista. Goods go into vaults at the warehouse the same day they are picked up, with no overnight hold on the truck. There is no unit or key; our crews handle everything, the space is climate controlled, and there is no minimum or maximum term.

It could be either. The Hollywood Riviera straddles the City of Redondo Beach and the City of Torrance, and the parcel decides which city's rules apply. It matters here: Torrance issues oversized vehicle permits through its Police Department, while Redondo Beach issues no moving truck permit at all. We confirm which side your address is on when you call.

Building rules rather than street rules. King Harbor's mid-rise and high-rise buildings typically require a booked lift window, a certificate of insurance, a designated loading area, and they have garage height limits that stop a full-size truck entering. Where a truck cannot get in, a shuttle is planned and priced at the estimate rather than decided on the day.

Some addresses on the walk streets and along The Strand have no vehicle access to the door, so the move is carried by hand, sometimes up or down steps. We qualify those properties on the phone before a date is confirmed, and crew size and hours follow the carry rather than the volume.
