What Laguna Beach does to a moving day
There are only three ways in or out of town: Laguna Canyon Road, which is SR-133, and Coast Highway from the north and from the south. Everything funnels through them. From June through August the canyon road carries the traffic for the Festival of Arts, the Sawdust Art Festival and Art-A-Fair, and Coast Highway through the Village near Forest Avenue and Main Beach sits bumper to bumper for most of the day. That is why Laguna jobs get early start times, and why we confirm the approach route with you when we book rather than on the morning.
Above the highway the streets are narrow, steep and often dead-ended: Temple Hills, Bluebird Canyon, Mystic Hills, Arch Beach Heights and the ridge at Top of the World. A full-size truck frequently cannot get to the door up there, so we shuttle in a smaller vehicle and carry the rest, and the carry never becomes a line item. On the coast side, the gated communities (Emerald Bay, Irvine Cove and Smithcliffs to the north, Lagunita and Three Arch Bay to the south) clear vendors at the gate, so we send the certificate of insurance and the crew and vehicle details ahead of the date instead of parking your move outside the gatehouse.
