Gorilla Movers regularly helps residents move into and out of the big Garden Communities properties around UTC — La Regencia, Costa Verde Village, and La Jolla Crossroads are weekly stops for our crews. Elevator reservations, COIs, and building protection are all standard with every booking.
Inside Costa Verde Village
Costa Verde Village is a mid-rise community — 1,263 residences, 4 stories, built in 1998 — managed by Garden Communities in University City / UTC. You'll find it at 8720 Costa Verde Boulevard, San Diego, CA 92122, with I-805, I-5 and SR-52 carrying most move-day traffic in and out.
One of UTC's biggest communities — 1,263 units directly across Genesee Avenue from Westfield UTC, with a gated garage and a dense multi-building loop road.
Getting a truck into Costa Verde Village
Parking here, as publicly listed: gated garage with one assigned space per unit. That shapes where the truck stages — we confirm the approach during the quote rather than improvising at the curb.
Because this is an elevator building, treat the elevator window as the spine of the move: reserve the earliest slot the office offers, tell us its length, and we size the crew to clear it with margin. Pads and door protection go up before the first box rolls.
Your Costa Verde Village move-day checklist
- Confirm your community's move-in/move-out rules and hours with the leasing office
- Send us the COI requirements — we return the certificate at no charge, usually within one business day
- Reserve the elevator (with pads) for the longest window offered
- Arrange gate access for the truck and confirm where the crew checks in
- Ask about garage clearance — box trucks rarely fit, so plan a surface staging spot
- Reserve parking or ask about a designated loading area for the truck
- Label boxes by room and set aside a first-night box that rides with you
- Schedule utilities and internet so they overlap your move date by a day on each side
What our crews know about University City
UTC traffic swells at UCSD move-in and quarter turnovers; if your dates are flexible, avoid the mid-September crunch.
Coming from outside the area, I-805, I-5 and SR-52 are your approach routes; we route trucks around the worst of the rush hour when the window allows.
