Movers in Anne Arundel County, MD

Anne Arundel is a county of peninsulas, and that shapes every move in it. Long single-access roads down to the water at Pasadena, Riviera Beach, Mayo and Shady Side; a colonial street grid in Annapolis that was never widened; dense post-war housing along the Ritchie Highway corridor; and the Fort Meade and BWI workforce moving on report dates rather than weekends. A crew that suits one of those is wrong for another.

Local moving rates across Anne Arundel County

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, single-item jobs, and freight.

The three things that actually move that number are the same across the county: how many flights of stairs and whether they turn, how far the truck has to sit from the door, and whether the building requires a reserved elevator. Tell us those three and the estimate holds. Send us both addresses and we will give you a real figure.

Three things that decide an Anne Arundel move

Waterfront lanes have one way in and one way out

On the peninsulas the road narrows as you approach the water, driveways are short and sloped, and there is often nowhere to turn a full-size truck around. When that is the situation we shuttle with a smaller vehicle rather than back a loaded truck a quarter mile. Give us the street at booking and we will plan the approach instead of discovering it.

Fixed dates beat convenient dates

Fort Meade, the Naval Academy and BWI all put people on report dates, contract starts and shift rotations rather than weekends. Those dates fill first on our calendar. Lead with the fixed date and we will build the job around it. Any move involving a base address needs access arranged in advance rather than at the gate.

Elevator buildings need a reservation

The condo and apartment buildings around Annapolis, Parole and the Ritchie Highway corridor generally require a reserved service elevator, a certificate of insurance on file, and moving inside set hours. That reservation is the most common reason a move runs long. We carry a certificate and will provide it to your building on request.
