Where is San Anselmo?
In the middle of the Ross Valley in central Marin County, between San Rafael to the east and Fairfax to the west, with Ross to the south. The unincorporated Sleepy Hollow area lies in the valley to the north. The town uses ZIP 94960.
The downtown runs along San Anselmo Avenue, close to San Anselmo Creek, with small shops and restaurants on both sides of the street.
How does the truck get in?
Sir Francis Drake Boulevard is the main road through the valley, connecting San Anselmo to US 101 at Greenbrae. Red Hill Avenue leads east toward San Rafael. The two meet at the Hub, the busy intersection on the east side of town.
When is traffic worst?
The valley has few through roads, so Sir Francis Drake and the Hub back up at commute and school hours. A mid-morning start usually means a shorter drive at both ends.
What are the homes like?
Older bungalows and cottages near downtown, single-family homes on the flatter streets of the valley floor, and hillside houses on steep, winding streets above it. Sleepy Hollow has larger lots with longer driveways.
Do I need a parking permit?
Many homes have a driveway. If the truck has to hold space on a public street, the Town of San Anselmo sets the rules. In Sleepy Hollow, outside town limits, roads are county roads. We check what applies to your address.
Will the truck fit on my street?
On the flats, usually. On the narrow hillside streets a full-size truck may not be able to climb, park or turn, so we bring a smaller truck and shuttle loads.
