Why is local different in Central San Diego?

Central San Diego local moves mean older urban housing, much of it 60-plus years old in Hillcrest, North Park, and Normal Heights. No driveway is the norm, so every job is curb-load through a narrow front walk. We default to a 20-foot truck because 26-footers can't make the corner onto streets like 30th or Adams without straddling. National City moves get Spanish-speaking lead crew on request. Tariff billing starts at portal departure, with a 1-hour minimum after arrival, and we account for the 5-7 stair flights typical of North Park's converted Craftsman duplexes.
