About UTC / University City

Clearing an office in UTC / University City

UTC is the Class A office district centered on Executive Drive, La Jolla Village Drive and Genesee Avenue, next to Westfield UTC and UC San Diego. Brokerage, finance, law, tech and life-science companies office here between the I-5 and I-805 merge, now connected to downtown by the UC San Diego Blue Line trolley.

Expect newer mid-rise and high-rise towers such as the La Jolla Commons and Irvine Company buildings, with managed loading docks, freight elevators and structured parking. Towers near the campus often sit beside lab and research space, so furniture removal has to be kept separate from any lab equipment or benches that belong to the landlord or a research tenant.

What experienced facilities teams account for in this district before the first desk comes apart.

Full San Diego liquidation guide

  1. Reserve dock time and a freight elevator window with the property manager, since UTC towers typically schedule move-outs after business hours.
  2. Time truck arrivals around rush hour at the I-5 and I-805 merge and La Jolla Village Drive, which back up badly on weekday afternoons.
  3. Keep trucks clear of the Blue Line trolley alignment and stations along Executive Drive and Genesee Avenue.
  4. In buildings with lab tenants, walk the space first and tag what is furniture versus fixed lab casework or equipment so nothing regulated leaves with the office load.
  5. Route monitors and computers to a certified e-waste processor, because California treats covered electronic devices as regulated waste that cannot be landfilled.
