Shelter-In-Place UPDATES
Hello folks! In this first week of sheltering in place, we have received roughly 700 bajillion more delivery requests than expected. We want to assure you we have all hands on deck- we've got 5 drivers doing deliveries and pickups full time- and all those hands are busy driving and disinfecting, too.
Since we have so many titles moving so quickly, a lot of popular items are going to be checked out the day you request them. For this, we ask for your patience. We will waitlist you! In the meantime, we're happy to deliver an Indecision Special to you for just $5 total!
If you are already on our homebound list or otherwise unable to leave your home, there is no delivery charge for you. Ashlyn is also willing to pick up non-movie essential items for you folks.
Reminder: our delivery line is text-capable! (831) 607-9378 reaches active staff by calling or texting; note that we can't pick up calls while driving, but can reply at our destination.
Did somebody put on High School Musical? 'Cause we're all in this together...

We are hiring multiple positions!
We are ramping up to our busy season at the same time as we prepare to unveil longer hours and more services, staff a standalone location on top of deliveries, and start production on several film and audio projects. We need excellent customer service clerks who know a lot about movies to join our ranks!
All positions require cash handling skills, the ability to lift and carry 35 lbs with or without assistance, background test, a basic understanding of various social media platforms, night/weekend availability, and useful movie knowledge. You will work some shifts alone while we are open to the public. All positions earn tips above base pay.
Driver: must be 18 or older and have a valid CADL with a clean driving record. You will be doing some customer service clerk shifts and some driving all over the county in a 30' box truck delivering movies. Part time, $16/hr to start.
Snack Barista: must be 16 or older. You will be working customer service clerk shifts and preparing snacks for purchase, including beverages and gourmet bagged popcorn. Part time, $13/hr to start.
Set & Shop Assistant: must be 16 or older and have a valid CADL with a clean driving record. You will be working customer service clerk shifts as well as assisting with podcasts and film set needs, running errands, and handling transportation of items to and from our storage unit. Part time, $15/hr to start.
If you think you could do more than one of these, let us know that in your cover letter! We offer pretty good perks around town, a free in-house meal per shift, free gear, regular performance-based raises, and plenty of room for creativity and skills development. Experience isn't necessary. A criminal record does not preclude you from employment. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds, and do not discriminate based on age, race, color, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, physical ability class, national origin, or anything else gross like that.

We are open now for delivery!
By now, you are surely aware that our home base is on the chopping block, as the new owners prepare to demolish the property to build ten houses. Welp. No worries- we shall re-emerge in a whole new AWESOME situation! In the meantime though, we are still doing deliveries, and have expanded that service to be seven days a week while we don't have a physical spot every day for you to visit.
WE ARE OPEN every First Friday at The Tannery from 5-9 pm, and once each in Live Oak (Portola Dr), Felton (near the liquor store), Aptos (in the Safeway center), and on the westside (Swift below Mission) every week.
IF YOU NEED TO RETURN A FILM AND DON'T WANT TO SCHEDULE PICK UP HERE, please drop it in the old drop box, drop it at The Tannery, or schedule your pickup below.
To schedule delivery or pick up, just email us directly at admin@westside-video.com OR fill out the form below to have us come on over! If you are outside of Santa Cruz, Live Oak, Pleasure Point, Capitola, Soquel, Felton, or Scotts Valley, please choose a meet-up location in the area closest to you.
If you do not yet have an account and you are 18 or older, we can set you up on the spot!

We're going to open a movie theater!
.This news is so big we had to put it on the front page. Your fave film geeks at the video store are bringing you the innovation of movies for here or to go! We're looking to open a movie theater easily accessible to the westside with comfy seating, full restaurant eats, and drinks from coffee and espresso to beer and wine. We'll show first run independent, foreign language, and local films (welcome, all you ambitious surfers, skaters, and students!), second run big budget releases (so you can see them in between other theaters and home viewing), and showings of all the festivals and video store lineups we can string together.
