What do Shelter Valley moves typically involve?
Shelter Valley moves are remote high-desert backcountry work along County Road S2 in the Anza-Borrego transition zone. The community is small and isolated, with rural-residential properties on large parcels along the County Road S2 corridor and the rural pockets toward the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park boundary. Most properties run 5-40+ acres with custom or semi-custom main residences plus outbuildings and equipment storage.
Dispatch from central staging runs 90-110 minutes via SR-78 to County Road S2. We schedule dedicated route days only. Summer afternoon heat hits 105-115°F from June through September; crew start times shift to dawn during peak summer.
How Shelter Valley moves actually run
A typical Shelter Valley full-property move runs 9-13 hours with a 3-mover crew. Main residence work on 1,800-3,500 square foot rural-residential or ranch scope adds 2-5 hours of secondary-structure scope. Long private gravel drives need access scouting; we shuttle from a 17-foot truck staged at the public road when needed.
