We move into the Irvine Company's premier apartment communities every single week. We know the loading docks, the elevator reservation rules, and the exact COI requirements — so move day goes smooth.
If you're moving into The Park Irvine, The Village at Irvine Spectrum, Woodbury Apartments, Los Olivos, or any other Irvine Company / Greystar / Equity Residential property in Orange County, you've come to the right place.
Most premium OC apartment buildings require advance loading-dock and elevator reservations, a specific Certificate of Insurance from your mover, and strict move-in windows. We've done this hundreds of times. We'll handle the paperwork side, you just open the door.
All included in the hourly rate — no surprise add-ons on move day.
We provide the COI naming your property's required additional insureds — usually within 24 hours of booking.
We coordinate with your building's leasing office to lock the elevator and loading-dock window.
We've moved through every staircase in Irvine. Couches that "won't fit" usually do — we know the tricks.
Studios, 1BR, 2BR, 3BR townhomes — we know the floor plans of the major Irvine properties.
Closets emptied in under 10 minutes. Reusable boxes, taken back when we're done.
All equipment included in the hourly rate. No surcharges, no rental fees.
SMG Movers
Apartment Movers Irvine — The Park, The Village & Woodbury Specialists
Most Irvine Company properties require: a 1–2 week advance reservation for the loading dock and elevator (typical fees $75–$150, paid to the property — not us), a Certificate of Insurance from your movers naming the property's required parties, and a strict move-in window (usually a 2 or 4 hour block).
When you book SMG, we email your property's leasing office the COI directly. You only need to confirm your reservation slot with the property. On move day, we arrive 15 minutes early to scope the loading dock and elevator, set up corner protection in shared hallways, and start moving the moment the elevator window opens.
Pro-Tip from Justin
Book your elevator reservation 1–2 weeks in advance — popular windows (Saturday 8am–noon, end-of-month weekends) fill up fast. Once you have your reservation slot, tell us and we'll match your crew size and truck to fit the window.
The Park, The Village, Woodbury, Los Olivos, Promenade, Stonegate, Quail Hill — we know which dock to use and where to park.
We email your property the Certificate of Insurance within 24 hours of booking. No back-and-forth on your end.
Studios from 3 hours. 1BR apartments typically 3–4 hours. 2BR usually 4–5 hours with a 3-mover crew.
