I’m Marco Salazar. The Catalina Foothills climb the hillsides straight below the Santa Catalinas — custom adobe and territorial estates on Skyline, Sunrise, and the ridgelines off Campbell and Swan. Steep, curving drives and stone courtyards are the norm here, so we scout the approach and write one flat rate before a single pad comes off the truck.

Steep drives, estate handling

Diego, my lead crew chief, runs the Foothills carries — long hillside driveways, split-level entries, art and antiques. If a 26-footer can’t take the grade, we shuttle the last leg in a smaller box and the rate stays flat.

Flat-rate moving across Catalina Foothills

Two uniformed movers and the truck at $155/hr on the clock, or a signed Southern Arizona figure that folds the entire Catalina Foothills move onto a single sheet

Marco’s Tucson crew has run the Catalina Foothills hillside carries, the Marana and Oro Valley subdivisions, the gravel arroyo drives out in the county and the pinched downtown curb windows across Catalina Foothills more times than any of us can keep track of.

What people in this area ask us

Do you serve all of the Catalina Foothills?
Yes. Skyline, Sunrise, the Campbell and Swan corridors, and the gated ridgeline estates. We know which drives take a full-size truck and which need the smaller box.
Can a moving truck handle a steep Foothills driveway?
Usually. Diego checks the grade and the turn first. If the 26-footer can't make it, we shuttle the last leg in a smaller box — same flat rate.
Can you move art, antiques, and a piano?
Yes. Diego leads our specialty crew and crates by hand. Everything is padded, wrapped, and priced into the binding flat rate up front.
Are you a moving company?
Yes — 3 Gorillas Moving is a fully licensed and insured Tucson, AZ moving company running our own trucks and uniformed crew, with Arizona household-goods mover authority plus US DOT and MC authority.

A note from Marco

I started 3 Gorillas Moving back in 2014 on one rule I have never bent: the number we put in writing is the number you pay — no curbside add-ons, ever. Every job rolls on our own trucks with a crew I hired and trained myself.

Whether it is a one-bedroom near downtown Tucson or a full house crossing Southern Arizona, you get the same crew and the same written flat rate every time. That steadiness is what keeps Tucson families handing our name to their neighbors.
