Fast, Reliable Moving & Storage Across Burbank
Moving and storage in Burbank runs $450-$2,500 for local moves and $90-$400 per month for storage, with Milestone Moving Co. offering same-week scheduling and climate-controlled units sized for everything from household overflow to studio equipment.

Call (855) 890-3455 for a free in-home or video estimate - the number we quote is the number you pay.
Burbank’s mix of 1940s-1960s bungalows, hillside homes above Glenoaks Canyon, and entertainment-industry professionals creates moving challenges you won’t find in neighboring Glendale or North Hollywood. Our Moving & Storage team knows the flatland neighborhoods where detached garages and tight side-yard gates limit truck access, and we’ve learned which north Burbank streets require shuttle vehicles from lower staging points. That local knowledge keeps your move on schedule and your quote intact.
Why Milestone Moving Co. Is Burbank’s Preferred Moving & Storage Company
We’ve moved families in Burbank for over 20 years, from the ranch-style homes near Verdugo Park to the hillside properties above Glenoaks Canyon. Dale Whitmore founded Milestone in 2006 with a simple standard: every quote in writing, every crew in uniform, every problem owned for 90 days. That standard hasn’t changed.
Our Burbank customers consistently mention two things in feedback: we show up in the window we promised, and the binding quote holds. No ramp surprises. No day laborers in unmarked trucks. One crew, start to finish, background-checked and on our payroll. When a sound editor in the hills above Glenoaks Canyon needed climate-controlled storage for a home editing suite during a July production hiatus, our crew scouted the narrow, dead-end street the day before, staged a shuttle from below, and timed the entire move around his studio schedule. That’s the difference local knowledge makes.
Live support answers every call, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week - before you book, while the truck is loading, and if something needs attention after delivery. The 90-Day Done Right Promise means one call brings a crew or a check. Not a claim form. Not a subcontractor.
Our Moving & Storage Services in Burbank
Short-Term Storage
Burbank’s production calendar creates a unique storage demand that neighboring cities simply don’t see. Between June and September and again in December-January, studio employees and freelance crews moving between projects often need short-term storage for a few weeks to months - wardrobe archives, prop collections, home editing equipment, or household goods between leases. Our Burbank short-term units handle this exact pattern. Month-to-month terms, no long-term lock-in, and access arranged around your production schedule. If you’re a Warner Bros. or Disney employee facing a hiatus window, we can coordinate pickup, storage, and redelivery to your next address or post house.
Climate-Controlled Storage
Burbank sits in a Valley hot spot that routinely records some of the highest summer temperatures in the greater LA basin. Triple-digit days from June through September aren’t unusual, and that heat damages electronics, warps wood furniture, and degrades film and audio media. Our climate-controlled storage in Burbank maintains stable temperature and humidity year-round, protecting professional equipment, instruments, and household items that standard units would risk. For production professionals storing server racks, mixing consoles, or vintage audio gear between projects, this isn’t optional - it’s necessary.
Storage-in-Transit
When your Burbank closing date slips or your new post-production house isn’t ready for delivery, storage-in-transit keeps your shipment secure without unloading into a separate warehouse. Your goods stay on the same Milestone truck or in a sealed vault, ready for final delivery when you give the word. This matters in Burbank’s entertainment economy, where project start dates shift and housing timelines follow production schedules, not traditional calendars. One binding quote covers the move and the hold - no re-handling fees, no surprise storage charges.
Long-Term Storage
For Burbank homeowners decluttering before a sale or downsizing from a hillside family home to a flatland condo, long-term storage offers secure, monitored space with flexible access. Our units accommodate furniture, seasonal items, and archived production materials that don’t fit the new place but aren’t ready to discard. Month-to-month pricing stays predictable, and inventory tracking means you know exactly what’s stored and where.

Trusted Equipment & Brands We Rely on for Burbank Moves
Our crews load Burbank households with equipment built for the job: Milwaukee power tools for quick disassembly of beds and shelving in tight bungalow bedrooms, Uline protective supplies for wrapping studio equipment and server racks, and Ryder-maintained trucks spec’d for hillside grades and Valley heat. We don’t subcontract to day laborers with rented U-Hauls. Every Milestone truck is branded, fully stocked, and garaged in the metro we serve. For moves in north Burbank’s Verdugo foothills, we carry specialized dollies and tie-downs sized for steep driveways and shuttle operations. The right equipment means fewer delays, less handling, and your items arriving intact.
Common Moving & Storage Problems We See in Burbank Homes
- Truck access failures in the Verdugo foothills. Streets above Glenoaks Canyon can dead-end or narrow to single-lane grades. We always scout truck access the day before rather than discovering the problem with a loaded vehicle at the curb. This one step prevents half the delays we see on hillside moves.
- Heat-related crew and equipment risk on triple-digit days. Burbank’s summer temperatures regularly hit 100°F-plus from June through September. Starting moves after 8 a.m. without adequate hydration breaks and heat protocols stalls crews and damages heat-sensitive items. We schedule Burbank summer starts before 7 a.m. as standard practice.
- Last-minute storage scrambles during production hiatuses. Studio employees often don’t know their next project location until weeks before a break. Waiting to arrange storage until the hiatus starts means competing for limited climate-controlled space. We recommend booking storage-in-transit or short-term units at least 30 days before known hiatus windows.
- Underestimating protection for home editing suites and server racks. Burbank’s entertainment-worker households contain equipment that standard moving blankets won’t protect. Climate-controlled transport, anti-static wrapping, and shock-mounted crating prevent the vibration and temperature damage that can corrupt drives and misalign audio gear.

FAQs - Moving & Storage in Burbank
We scout truck access the day before any foothills move, then stage a shuttle vehicle from a lower, wider point if the destination street won’t accommodate a 26-foot truck. This prevents the loaded-truck-stuck scenario we’ve seen from crews who skip the recon. For your Burbank hillside move, call (855) 890-3455 - we’ll walk through the access plan during your free estimate.
October through May offers the most forgiving temperatures, though October-November Santa Ana wind events can trigger Red Flag warnings that close hillside streets without warning. If you must move June through September, we schedule start times before 7 a.m. to beat triple-digit afternoon heat. For any Burbank move date, we monitor conditions and communicate adjustments by phone - live person, not a recording.
