Moving to North Park

Cozy homes, busy streets, great coffee

North Park is one of the most walkable parts of San Diego. You're close to coffee shops, breweries, galleries and the Thursday Market, and a lot of people live in a small space.

The neighborhood is a mix of old Craftsman bungalows and apartment buildings. Hundreds of homes were torn down in the 1960s and '70s for small apartment buildings, and new ones are still going up. More neighbors and fewer driveways means moving day takes a little planning.

Walkable, full of coffee and Craftsman bungalows, and short on parking. A little planning goes a long way.

Parking is tight

Street spots near 30th Street and University Avenue fill up fast, and some newer buildings have very few spaces. Pick where the truck will go before moving day, and check the posted signs on your block.

Spots near 30th and University fill up fast. Plan where the truck goes.

Check the alley

Lots of North Park apartment buildings from the 1960s and ’70s park off the alley. If yours does, the alley may be the easiest place to load.

Small bungalows, small rooms

Craftsman bungalows are charming and cozy. Pack one room at a time and stack full bins along one wall so halls and porches stay clear.

Go easy on wood floors

Got older wood floors? Put a runner or rug at the door, lift bins instead of dragging them, and roll stacks on the dolly.

Lift bins, don't drag them, and put a runner at the door.

Moving into an apartment?

Ask your building about move-in hours, elevator reservations and where a truck can park. Book your bins around those times.

Moving on a Thursday?

The Thursday Market sets up on North Park Way, from Granada Avenue to Ray Street, 3 to 7:30 p.m. Plan your truck route around it.

Older home, no AC?

Lots of 1920s bungalows don't have central air. On warm days, pack in the morning, load and unload the truck before the afternoon heat, and unpack the room you'll sleep in first.

North Park questions

Four Good Day moving bins stacked on a dolly in an apartment parking lot
Is delivery included in North Park?

Yes. North Park is within 10 miles of our home base in City Heights, so delivery and pickup are included in every package.

When's the easiest time to move in North Park?

Weekday mornings are usually calmest. On Thursdays, the market sets up on North Park Way from 3 to 7:30 p.m., so plan your truck route around it.

Where should the moving truck park in North Park?

Side streets off 30th Street and University Avenue are usually easier. If your building parks off the alley, that's often the best place to load. Check the posted signs on your block first.

Do you bring the bins inside?

We deliver to your door or the curb. We don't go inside, so pick a spot near your entrance, porch or alley.

Do I need to be home for delivery?

Someone 18 or older can meet us, or choose a safe spot ahead of time and we'll leave the bins there.

How far ahead do I need to book?

48 hours ahead works for most moves. Booking more than 40 bins? Give us 7 days. Moving faster than that? Text us at (858) 208-0051 and we’ll tell you what we can do.

What if I need the bins longer?

Ask for an extension at least 24 hours before your pickup. Extra weeks are $40 to $85, depending on your package.

What can't go in the bins?

No food and nothing hazardous. The next family will thank you.

Ten-second sizing

How many moving boxes do you need?

Tell us about the place you're leaving, not the one you're going to. We'll size the package for you.

How much stuff, honestly? Pick the packing style that matches you.
Anything that eats boxes? Check all that apply.

Counts are for our 27-gallon plastic boxes. If you're between sizes, go up. Extra boxes are $5 each and empty ones are easier than a last-minute cardboard run. Live plants ride loose, not in boxes, so we don't count them.
