Why Walsh Moving & Storage

Why Walsh Professional Moving?

  • We take ownership of your move from start to finish. We don’t subcontract any portion of your move to other companies.

  • We have an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
  • We carry full insurance. If anything breaks during your move (unlikely), Walsh pays for the damage in most cases.
  • Walsh movers are covered by company medical and Worker’s Compensation. If someone gets hurt during your DIY move, you, the homeowner or renter, could be liable.

Things to Consider When Moving in Playa Del Rey

Located along the peaceful shores of Santa Monica Bay, Playa Del Rey is a unique coastal neighborhood known for its relaxed beach town vibe and scenic ocean views. While beautiful, moving here presents unique logistical considerations.

Coastal Access & Traffic

Playa Del Rey is bordered by Dockweiler Beach, Ballona Creek, and the Pacific Ocean. While this offers incredible beach access, it also means dealing with coastal traffic patterns, especially during summer weekends.

Proximity to Silicon Beach

With a community that blends residential charm with convenient access to Silicon Beach and Marina del Rey, the area sees a mix of residential and commercial activity. Navigating moves around tech hubs requires efficiency to minimize disruption.

Airport Proximity

Being just minutes from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is convenient for travel but adds another layer of traffic considerations. Our drivers know the best routes to avoid airport congestion during peak travel times.

Q: How do you handle moves in the “Jungle” (lower Playa Del Rey)?

“The Jungle” has very narrow streets and high density. Our drivers are experts at navigating these tight spaces. We sometimes use smaller shuttle trucks to ferry items from your home to the larger moving van if a big truck cannot fit on your street.

Q: Can you move surfboards and other beach equipment safely?

Absolutely. We have specialized packing materials and techniques to protect surfboards, paddleboards, bicycles, and other outdoor gear, ensuring they arrive at your new home without a scratch.

Q: I live in an apartment complex with strict elevator times. Can you accommodate that?

Yes. We’re very familiar with the requirements of apartment and condo complexes in the area. We’ll work with you to schedule your move within the windows allowed by your building management to avoid fines or conflicts.

Q: Do you offer storage if my new place in Silicon Beach isn’t ready yet?

Yes, we offer secure vault and trailer storage. This is a common request for clients moving into new developments in nearby Silicon Beach, where construction timelines can sometimes shift. We keep your items safe until you’re ready to receive them.

Q: How does proximity to LAX affect my move?

Traffic around LAX can be unpredictable. Our local dispatch team monitors traffic patterns closely. We plan routes and start times to avoid the worst of the airport congestion, ensuring our trucks arrive on time.
