About Us

Danny Kessler grew up in Van Nuys, the kind of Valley kid who spent summers riding along on his uncle’s furniture-delivery route before he was old enough to drive the truck himself. He spent his twenties running crews for a regional van line based out in the Inland Empire, learning the trade from the back of someone else’s trucks, before he came home to the Valley in 2013 and opened Horizon Van Lines with a single rented truck. The idea was simple: the crew that quotes your job should be the same crew that shows up on move day, not a name on a call-center screen who hands you off to whoever’s available.

Over a Decade of Valley Moves

Since 2013, Horizon Van Lines has completed more than 2,900 moves and logged over 410,000 miles between Northridge and the rest of the region. Every one of those jobs was handled by our own crew and our own trucks — we’ve never subcontracted a move out to another company.

The Team

Arjun Nair has handled move coordination and estimates since 2018. He walks every household through a phone or video estimate personally and has a written flat rate back the same day, CSUN semester-turn weekends included.

Marcus Ondo has run dispatch starting in 2019. He builds the daily truck board around 405 and 101 interchange timing, dorm loading-zone windows near CSUN, and the gate codes for Porter Ranch’s HOA communities, so a crew rarely shows up guessing.

Julian Reyes has led the same crew for a decade, going back to 2016. He signs off personally on every piano and gun-safe job before the straps come off, and it’s rare that a stairwell turn surprises him at this point.

Dana Whitfield has run packing and inventory since 2020. He built the room-by-room packing checklist our crew still uses today and trains every new hire on how a kitchen actually survives a drive up the 405.

Trevor Sok has driven our long-distance runs starting in 2021. He handles the Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Sacramento trips himself and stays with the load from the Northridge driveway to wherever it’s headed.

Licensed and Insured

Horizon Van Lines is a fully licensed and insured Northridge household-goods mover, registered for household-goods work across the San Fernando Valley with a California PUC household-goods carrier permit (Cal-T) and interstate US DOT and MC authority on file, available to any customer who asks. We’re based on Reseda Blvd in Northridge, and we’ve run the company the way Danny always wanted: one crew, one truck fleet, one flat rate, nothing farmed out.
