Why is labor-only different in South County San Diego?

South County labor-only often pairs with PODS containers in Otay Ranch and EastLake driveways, where new-construction homes have wide driveways and clean access. HOA mid-rise condo labor-only requires COI filing 48 hours ahead even for self-rented trucks, which we coordinate with our insurer. Bilingual crew dispatched on request for San Ysidro and Imperial Beach jobs. Chula Vista's tract streets fit any container size. 2-hour minimums apply, no fuel surcharge on labor-only since we're not driving.
