Annapolis Neck is the peninsula south of the city, where Forest Drive turns into Bay Ridge Road and the neighbourhoods run down to the water on three sides. Hillsmere, Bay Ridge, Annapolis Roads and the streets around Quiet Waters Park are all part of it, home to about 11,000 people in Anne Arundel County. The county seat, Annapolis, is the only way in and out by road.
Local moving rates in Annapolis Neck
Our local moving rate is $185 per hour with a four-hour minimum. That covers the truck, the crew, protective wrap, dollies and straps, and the drive between your two addresses. Flat-rate quotes are available for long-distance moves and single-item jobs.
The four-hour minimum is not a sales tactic. It is close to what a real move takes once you count the walk from the truck to the door, the wrap-and-pad time at the front end, and the reassembly at the other end. What moves the number up or down is access — stairs, parking distance, elevator waits — far more than square footage. Send us both addresses and we will give you a real figure.
What we handle in Annapolis Neck
A lot of what we do on the Neck is downsizing out of a large house near the water, which makes the sort and the pacing as important as the truck.
- Downsizing and senior moves, paced to the household
- Apartment, condo and house moves anywhere in the region
- Single-item moves for the one thing that will not fit in the car
- Labor-only loads and unloads for rental trucks and containers
- Junk removal and whole-house cleanouts
- Turnover work for landlords: removing what the last tenant left and setting up the next
- Long-distance moves by flat rate
What we plan for in Annapolis Neck
Forest Drive is the bottleneck
Every trip on or off Annapolis Neck uses Forest Drive, which picks up MD-665 and Route 2 traffic and slows badly from mid-afternoon. There is no second route. We schedule the loaded leg for the morning or midday and tell you straight if a late-afternoon start will cost more hours.
Hillsmere and Bay Ridge lanes
The older water communities have narrow streets, mature trees and a few roads that dead-end at the shore with nowhere to turn a truck. Before we quote the vehicle we look at the street. A 26-foot truck is fine on most of the peninsula and wrong on some of it, and the difference is worth a phone call.
Large houses with a lot of stuff
Houses here are generally big, with basements, garages, screened porches and often a boat-related pile in the yard. They tend to belong to families who have been in them a long time. An honest walkthrough before the quote keeps the number from doubling on the day, and two days is sometimes the right plan.
Quiet Waters Park and the Annapolis side
The northern end of the Neck runs into the city of Annapolis and its historic-district parking rules. If either end of your move is in the city, we handle the parking permit question first, because a truck that cannot park is a truck that is not working.
