Eastside & Canyon Road Movers
Free, No-Obligation Estimate
Historic adobe compounds, dirt lanes, and gallery-row art. Leonard’s moves the Eastside with white-glove care, owner on site.
Moving in Eastside: What to Expect
The Eastside and Canyon Road are the oldest, most protected corner of Santa Fe, walled adobe compounds on narrow dirt lanes, low viga ceilings, kiva corners, and a lot of fine Southwestern art and antiques. A move here is about protection and patience, so Leonard brings extra padding, floor runners, and the care a walled compound and a gallery of pieces deserve.
What to square away before a Eastside move
- Narrow dirt lanes leave little room for a full-size truck
- Fine art, pottery, and antiques need extra padding and care
- Low vigas, adobe doorways, and saltillo floors slow the carry

Three Steps to Moving Day
From the first hello to the last box carried in the door and set in the right room.
Tell Us About the Move
Give Leonard the shape of the move by phone, on a quick video call, or straight through the form. What comes back is a fair hourly rate or a flat quote in writing, not a soft number that swells once the truck is loaded.
Lock In Your Date
Claim your day and we set the right crew and truck, then sort the parking on a narrow Eastside lane, the HOA gate pass, or the loading window your building asks for.
We Carry the Load
Leonard runs the whole job himself, wrap, load, drive, and place, and we plan the run around St. Francis Drive, Cerrillos Road, and I-25 so the day stays on time.

Leonard carries the whole thing, from that first phone call to the final box, with nobody brokered in between.

Your Move, Fully Covered
Taken care of from the first blanket we throw down to the last box set in the far room.
Fully Insured
Every job carries cargo and liability coverage, and we go over your valuation choices with you before you sign a single form.
Adobe-Ready
Narrow adobe doorways, Eastside dirt lanes with no driveway, kiva corners, and saltillo floors, we scout the carry and lay down protection so a historic-district move never gets stuck at the gate.
Padded & Wrapped
Every piece is blanketed, shrink-wrapped, and strapped down tight. If a piece takes a knock, we call it out on the spot and put it right.
Done Right
An honest price, an owner who cares about the work, and nobody leaves until every last piece sits where you want it.
We Know Eastside
We plan the dirt-lane parking, the fragile-art padding, and the portal carry before your date, so an Eastside move protects every piece from gate to door. Leonard runs your job from the first knock to the last box, and you hold the price before a single item is loaded.

Leonard is great. He showed up at 8AM and had my 15 foot truck unloaded in less than an hour. The man's a hustler. Hire him when you need to move, people!
We moved across the state and expected delays, but they were perfectly on time. Everything was unloaded carefully and in perfect condition. Their timing and professionalism stood out.
Excellent service- very flexible and accommodated my schedule. The movers were professional and courteous. Highly recommend!
Other Areas We Serve
Questions We Hear a Lot
Do you handle Eastside and Canyon Road moves?
Yes, all the time, and carefully. We pad the art and antiques, lay runners on the saltillo, and run the whole job on our hourly or a flat quote. When the move leaves New Mexico, we price it on weight and distance instead.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Leonard’s Moving Services is a licensed, insured New Mexico mover, and Leonard runs the job with his own crew from start to finish, with no broker in the middle taking a cut. Happy to share the coverage details, just ask, and we will go over your valuation choices before anything is final.
Do you do loading and unloading only, or PODs and rental trucks?
Yes to all of it. Plenty of Santa Fe folks rent a truck or drop a POD and just need strong, careful hands to load or unload it, and that is a job Leonard has done for years. We load a rented truck tight so nothing shifts on I-25, unload a freight truck or container, or handle the whole move door to door, whatever you need.
My place is an old adobe on a narrow Eastside lane. Can you handle it?
That is a lot of what we do. The historic homes off Canyon Road and around the Eastside sit on skinny dirt lanes with thick adobe doorways, low viga ceilings, kiva corners, and saltillo-tile floors that scratch if you rush. We measure the turns, pad the jambs, lay floor runners, and hand-carry anything that will not clear a tight portal.
Will you handle the packing?
As much or as little as you want. Need the whole house boxed? Done. Just the kitchen and the art? That works too. We bring sturdy cartons and paper, label each box by room, and can unpack you at the new place once the truck is empty.
Do you move pianos, gun safes, and heavy items?
Yes, and Leonard handles them regularly. An upright or a baby grand, a loaded safe, a slate pool table, a heavy antique, or a framed canvas, each one rides the right board or dolly under proper straps and pads, and we plan the route through the tight spots ahead of time.
Can I move or cancel my date?
Of course. Reschedule or cancel with two days’ notice or more and your full deposit comes back. Every condition is written into your booking in plain words, so nothing is left to guesswork.
