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.
A 4-story building usually means one elevator serving residents and movers at the same time. Reserve it with Garden Communities, take the earliest window offered, and expect our crew to stage in the corridor rather than the lobby so the doors stay clear.
The truck works from Costa Verde Boulevard. This is a UTC corridor address, so the two things that decide the day are where the gate lets a truck stop and how far that is from your door.
Your Costa Verde Village move-day checklist
- Confirm the move-in and move-out hours with Garden Communities before you book anything else
- Ask Garden Communities for the move packet: allowed hours, any deposit, and the insurance limits it requires
- Send us those insurance requirements. The certificate comes back at no charge, usually within one business day
- Reserve the elevator with pads through Garden Communities, for the longest window they will give you
- Ask where the truck stages on Costa Verde Boulevard and whether the garage clearance takes a box truck
- Label boxes by the room they are going to, not by what is in them, and keep a first-night box with you
- Set utilities and internet to overlap your move date by a day on each side
- Photograph the empty unit on your way out, which is what settles a deposit argument later
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.
