Emeryville in Context
Emeryville by the Numbers
Emeryville is a compact city in Alameda County wedged between Oakland and Berkeley on the east shore of the bay, with only a few thousand residents but a daytime population many times larger. It packs corporate campuses, the Bay Street retail center, and dense live/work lofts into barely more than a square mile.
The Emeryville Story
Once a gritty industrial and warehouse district, Emeryville reinvented itself as a hub for animation and biotech, with a well-known film studio among its tenants. The Bay Street center and converted warehouses brought lofts, shops, and offices to land that once held factories. It is small, modern, and densely built.
What Moving Day Looks Like in Emeryville
Most Emeryville moves run through loft and mid-rise buildings, so freight-elevator reservations and loading-dock timing shape the day, and we book them ahead. Bay Street and the campus areas get busy, so we time the truck around traffic. On compact streets, staging matters more than distance.
