(310) 359-8500Handling a move often competes with work, family, and deadlines. If you’re relocating to or from Hidden Hills, coordinating access with gated communities, protecting fragile belongings, and working around tight schedules can be a lot to juggle. Bringing in professional support can streamline tasks and reduce the chance of delays or damage.
Tom’s Marathon Movers offers licensed crews and proper equipment for Hidden Hills relocations. Whether it’s a hillside home with narrow driveways or a condo with limited elevator access, our expert movers can plan routes, protect floors and doorways, and safely manage heavy or awkward items from start to finish.
Get A Free Estimate
Start with a simple plan to cut down on chaos. Move room by room and set up three staging spots—keep, donate, sell—so you can decide quickly. Book donation pickups early to free up space. In the kitchen, choose double‑walled dish cartons, wrap plates and glasses generously, and fill empty gaps so nothing shifts. Number each box, note the destination room, and keep a brief contents list in a phone note or spreadsheet for quick reference.
If you’d rather hand off the time‑consuming pieces, Tom’s Marathon Movers can help. The crew can pack, prep, and move appliances safely, lay protection on floors and doorways, load portable storage containers (including PODS), or place items into secure storage. They’re familiar with Venice building access rules and certificate of insurance requirements, and can coordinate elevator windows, loading zones, and timing so your schedule stays intact.
When working with a moving company, you need to understand their services to choose one that fits your needs. Below are the extensive moving solutions we can provide:
Packing Services
We tailor packing to your needs. We match supplies to what’s being packed: dish barrels with cell dividers for glassware, wardrobe cartons for hanging clothes, picture and mirror boxes, and custom crating for art or irregular pieces. Every box is marked with its destination room and a brief description, and we set aside a clearly labeled essentials box so the first couple of days are easy.
Local & Long-Distance Moving
Moves within Venice or to another city are scheduled around access and timing. We reserve elevator windows when required, request loading areas where permitted, and plan truck routes that avoid low clearances and weight-restricted streets. At both locations, we protect floors, corners, doorframes, and stage rooms to speed up setup, and we provide straightforward arrival windows and updates so you’re not guessing.
Specialty Moving
Pianos, antiques, and fine art are handled with a specific plan. We verify dimensions, clear a safe path through the property, and bring proper gear—breathable blankets, piano boards, stair protection, soft crating, stretch wrap, and corner guards. High‑value items receive extra padding and a condition report, and we can supply building certificates of insurance when requested.
PODS Loading
A stable container load starts with even weight and a solid structure. We keep heavier items low and centered, build secure tiers, interlock cartons, and wrap furniture to prevent scuffs. Everything is tied off with straps or load bars, mattresses ride upright in sleeves, and soft goods fill small voids to stop movement. If you’d like, we can document the final layout with photos.
Commercial Moving
Office relocations are planned around your operations, including evening or weekend work in Venice when that minimizes disruption. Workstations, equipment, and files are labeled to match your floor plan; electronics are wrapped with anti‑static materials; and sensitive records follow a documented chain of custody. We finish with a walkthrough to confirm placement before the staff returns.
Storage Services
We arrange short- or long-term storage when your move dates don’t line up. Items are inventoried, furniture is wrapped for protection, and goods are placed in secure, climate‑controlled spaces. Vaults and racks are available for oversized or irregular pieces. Access is by appointment, and we coordinate redelivery to your Venice residence or office when you’re ready.
Moving can be overwhelming, but with our team by your side, it becomes a seamless and even enjoyable experience. Here’s why our clients trust us to make their move efficient and free of headaches:
Clear, Predictable Pricing
You’ll know the numbers before work begins. Estimates break out labor, travel, materials, and any access factors, so you can see where time and cost are allocated. If the scope shifts, we pause to discuss options and revise the estimate to avoid surprises.
Custom Strategies for Every Move
We start with a quick call or on‑site walkthrough to understand priorities and constraints. From there, we create a timeline, handle curb use and access permissions, reserve elevators where applicable, define the packing level, set labeling standards, and map room‑by‑room setup so move day runs in a logical sequence.
Experienced Team Members
Our crews manage walk‑ups, distance carries, and tight corners without interrupting the flow. Surfaces are protected with floor runners and door‑jamb guards, the right tools are used for each task, and furniture is taken down and reassembled with hardware bagged and clearly marked to keep pieces together.
Careful Handling of Fragile Items
Breakables are matched with appropriate protection: double‑wall cartons, cell dividers, foam corner guards, glassine for artwork, and picture/mirror boxes or custom crates when needed. Delicate pieces are labeled with handling notes like “top load,” placed in a dedicated section of the truck, and photographed or condition‑checked before transport.
Comprehensive Moving Solutions
Keeping everything under one team simplifies coordination. We can manage packing and unpacking, transport, PODS loading, specialty item handling, and storage on a single schedule. One inventory and one point of contact help keep details aligned from pickup through placement.
Protection and Assurance
Putting your belongings in our hands should feel straightforward. We’re fully licensed, bonded, and insured, adhere to California requirements on every project, and can issue certificates of insurance for Hidden Hills properties or HOAs upon request.
