Moving in Davis, made a little simpler
Davis is a university city with a compact downtown, UC Davis, extensive bike and pedestrian infrastructure, and a strong transit network. The Arboretum, Central Park, the Mondavi Center, and the city's many pathways help define daily travel patterns. Those same features make careful loading planning important: a clear route to the residence should not obstruct bike lanes, sidewalks, shared-use paths, or building access. Confirm parking and property rules with the landlord, HOA, or manager before the delivery date.

Move-day notes for Davis
- Keep bins, vehicles, and dollies clear of Davis bike paths, sidewalks, and grade-separated crossings; use the route to the door, not a public pathway, for staging.
- For downtown, campus-adjacent, or transit-served properties, confirm curb access, parking, elevator reservations, and move-in windows early.
- Measure older homes' doorways, hallways, stair turns, and the path from curb to entrance before deciding how many bins to rent.
- Allow extra time around campus, school, farmers' market, commuter, and freeway activity when scheduling delivery or pickup.
- Twenty bins are $79 per week and 40 are $129; extra bins are $10 each and dollies are $25 each.
