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.
La Jolla Crossroads, at a glance
La Jolla Crossroads is Garden Communities's mid-rise community in University City / UTC, east of I-805 — roughly 1,500 residences, 5 stories, built in 2011 —. You'll find it at 9085 Judicial Drive, San Diego, CA 92122, with I-805 at Nobel Dr, I-5 and SR-52 carrying most move-day traffic in and out.
A roughly 1,500-unit campus on Judicial Drive with underground parking and multiple elevators per building — long garage-to-unit carries are the norm, so crew size matters.
Parking, elevators, and the way in
Parking here, as publicly listed: underground gated garage with assigned spaces. 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.
Before the truck arrives
- 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
- 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
Timing a move in 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 at Nobel Dr, I-5 and SR-52 are your approach routes; we route trucks around the worst of the rush hour when the window allows.
