The short version

Gorilla Movers moves sailors and families at Naval Base Coronado, which is an island with two major commands and one bridge, making it a logistics problem before it is a muscle problem. After 18 years of island moves we plan the bridge crossing rather than take whatever traffic gives us, and we know where Coronado sailors actually live, from the Village to the Cays. Storage bridges deployment gaps. Active-duty pricing and PPM paperwork handled. Call 619-600-5000.

Island moving, done by people who plan for it

Naval Base Coronado spans NAS North Island on the island's north end and the Naval Amphibious Base along the Silver Strand, and everyone assigned to either learns the same lesson fast: everything moves across the bridge or up the Strand. We schedule island moves around commute crush hours, stage tightly on Coronado's narrow residential streets, and build the crossing into the plan rather than the surprise column of the bill.

Coronado housing itself splits between village homes and condos near the beach and military housing along the Strand. Village streets are tight and parking is contested. We scout the curb situation in advance. For base and housing-area moves, commercial gate access is coordinated before move day, with background-checked uniformed crews and a registered company vehicle keeping the sponsorship simple.

Where Coronado sailors actually live

Island rents push plenty of North Island and NAB families to the mainland: Imperial Beach down the Strand, Chula Vista and Eastlake across the bay, downtown for the single sailors. All of it is daily territory for us, and a mainland-to-island move with the bridge planned right runs remarkably smoothly.

PPM paperwork gets the standard full treatment: certified empty and loaded weight tickets arranged near your route, itemized invoices for the finance office, and verifiable licensing behind it all. CAL T-192729, USDOT 3801918, BBB A+ since 2008.

Deployment cycles and the storage bridge

Carriers and amphibs deploy, and households need somewhere to wait. Our secure warehouse holds a full household in padded, sealed vaults, inventoried, for a month or a full float, and the same crew delivers when you are back and housed. Active-duty pricing applies at booking, bills are hourly with fuel itemized, and dates move free when the Navy moves yours.

FAQ

Naval Base Coronado Moving questions, answered.

Do you handle moves on Coronado island?
Regularly. We schedule around bridge commute crush, stage carefully on the village's narrow streets, and scout parking in advance, island logistics are a planning problem we've solved many times since 2008.
Do you handle government-booked PCS moves?
If your PCS is government-arranged, the military assigns the carrier and you do not choose. Where we come in is the PPM option, where you hire your own mover and get reimbursed based on documented weight, plus local moves on and off base, housing-to-housing shuffles, and moves the government is not paying for.
Can you help with PPM weight tickets and paperwork?
Yes. Reimbursement on a personally procured move is based on certified scale weights, empty and loaded. We help arrange the weighing at a certified scale near your route and provide the itemized invoice your finance office expects, backed by a licensed carrier: CAL T-192729, USDOT 3801918.
Can you store my household during a deployment?
Yes, padded, sealed-vault, inventoried storage at our warehouse for a month or a full deployment, delivered back by the same crew when you return and have housing.
Do you cover Imperial Beach and the Silver Strand?
Yes, IB, the Strand corridor, Chula Vista, and the rest of the South Bay are daily territory. Travel is itemized in the written quote.
How soon can you move me to or from Naval Base Coronado?
Most moves at Naval Base Coronado (NASNI) book within the same week, and we plan around bridge traffic and base access so the day runs on time. Short notice is often doable, so call us for the soonest date.
How much does a Coronado move cost?
Local moves are priced hourly by crew size with a four-hour minimum, with wrapping, pads, and basic disassembly included. We do not post teaser rates; you get a written, itemized quote before the day.

Gorilla movers did a fantastic job moving my mother in Oceanside. Raul was incredible. From the moment he arrived, he was very strategic in how he would complete the job. I had doubts with all of the stuff we had but trusted his knowledge and experience and he exceeded our expectations! They take care of your items, asked a lot of questions and consistently checked in on if there was anything else they could help with. Raul, not sure if we could have done this move without you!! Thank you so much and than you Gorilla movers!! -Jackie, Marty, and Liz

Alex and the crew were very professional and took great care of our stuff. We booked on short notice and they were accommodating and communicated throughout the move. They even helped move some of the boxes of stuff from our garage to the appropriate rooms as we had a little extra time.

We used Gorilla Movers 7 years ago and they did an excellent job. So we hired them again for our current move and they worked so hard. This time we were moving our belongings into pods and the perfectly wrapped our furniture for a long move. They also perfectly packed the pods so we could fit all of our belongings. I highly recommend this moving company.

I cannot stress enough the quality of their service, expertise, and responsiveness. Gorilla Movers made the task of relocating my call center operation within the San Diego area far easier than I anticipated. They exceeded my expectations throughout the entire process and will be the first company I call for any future moving needs.
