01 · The building

Getting to know Harborview

Harborview Apartment Homes is The Irvine Company's mid-rise community in Marina District, Downtown San Diego — built in 1992 —. You'll find it at 820 W G Street, San Diego, CA 92101, with I-5, SR-163 and SR-94 carrying most move-day traffic in and out.

A Marina District mid-rise a short walk from Santa Fe Depot and Seaport Village; downtown's one-way grid and metered curbs make truck staging the first conversation.

02 · Access

Where the truck goes

Parking here, as publicly listed: complimentary assigned parking; on-site storage units available. That shapes where the truck stages — we confirm the approach during the quote rather than improvising at the curb.

Elevator buildings reward planning: get the earliest reservation window you can, tell us how long it runs, and we bring enough movers to finish inside it. The crew pads the elevator and doorways before anything moves.

03 · Checklist

The pre-move 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
  • 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
04 · Timing

Move-day timing in Marina District

Book a weekday morning if you can — downtown curb space and building slots go first, and event-day traffic can pin a truck for an hour.

Coming from outside the area, I-5, SR-163 and SR-94 are your approach routes; we route trucks around the worst of the rush hour when the window allows.

Residents ask us

Does Harborview Apartment Homes require an elevator reservation?
Elevator buildings almost always require a reserved, padded elevator for moves. Confirm the window with your leasing office, tell us its length, and we plan the crew to finish inside it.
How much does a move at Harborview Apartment Homes cost?
Apartment moves in San Diego typically run by the hour with crew size set by your unit and the building's logistics. A studio or one-bedroom is usually a half-day; see our San Diego moving cost guide for current ranges, or get a written quote in about an hour.
How far ahead should I book a move at Harborview Apartment Homes?
Two to three weeks is comfortable — enough for the elevator or move window, the COI, and a weekday slot. Outside end-of-month peaks we can often do same-week.

Gorilla Movers is an independent moving company. Community names are used to identify buildings we serve; details like elevator, parking, and access policies change — always confirm specifics with your leasing office before move day.
