Brentwood splits into two very different moves. South of Sunset, it's a condo and apartment market: the corridors along San Vicente, Barrington, and Montana's eastern end, where the job is about COIs, reserved elevators, and loading docks with time limits. North of Sunset, it's canyon country: Mandeville, Kenter, and Tigertail, where the challenge is getting a truck up switchback roads with soft shoulders and finding a place to stage it at the top.
We quote these as different jobs because they are. A Barrington condo and a Mandeville hillside home of the same size can differ by hours — and we'd rather tell you that before move day than discover it on the clock.
What moving in Brentwood actually involves
Condo corridors
San Vicente and Barrington buildings almost always require a certificate of insurance and a reserved freight elevator. We handle the COI with your HOA or building manager before move day.
Canyon & hillside homes
Mandeville, Kenter and Tigertail moves get route-planned in advance — truck size matched to the road, staging position confirmed, and long driveways priced into the quote.
Estate-scale moves
Larger Brentwood homes run multi-day: pack day, load day, place day. Four-mover crews with a lead who walks the home with you at start and finish.
School & lease timing
Brentwood families move around school calendars — June and August book heaviest. Reserve 2–3 weeks out for summer weekends.
Rates for Brentwood moves
3-hour minimum on all moves. Firm written quote before move day.
Every Brentwood move gets a firm written quote — see typical totals by home size in our cost guide, or add packing and piano moving to the same job.
Frequently asked questions
Do you move homes up the Brentwood canyons?
Yes — Mandeville, Kenter, Tigertail and the surrounding hillside streets. We match the truck to the road, plan the staging position in advance, and staff for long driveways and stairs.
Do Brentwood condo buildings require insurance certificates?
Most do. Buildings along San Vicente and Barrington typically require a certificate of insurance naming the HOA before movers may use the freight elevator. We provide the COI and coordinate directly with your building manager.
How much does a Brentwood move cost?
Standard rates apply: $139/hour for two movers, $169/hour for three, 3-hour minimum. Hillside access or estate-scale homes are quoted precisely after a short call — larger Brentwood jobs often warrant a four-mover crew, quoted individually.
