Fairland is the east-county stretch along US-29 between Silver Spring and Burtonsville, and it is mostly apartments and townhomes strung along Briggs Chaney Road. About 25,000 people live here in Montgomery County, a good number of them renters, with a regional park on one side and the ICC on the other. Rockville is the county seat; Silver Spring is where most of the commutes go.
Local moving rates in Fairland
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.

- Downsizing and senior moves, paced to the household
- Flat-rate long-distance moving out of state
What we plan for in Fairland
US-29 (Columbia Pike) and the ICC
Columbia Pike is the main road, a fast divided highway with slow interchanges at Briggs Chaney Road and at the ICC (MD-200). The Briggs Chaney exit backs up in the evening. The ICC gives us a quick run east to I-95 or west to I-270 with a loaded truck, and we use it.
Apartment complexes along Briggs Chaney Road
Most of the housing here is garden apartments and mid-rise buildings with shared entries and fire-lane rules. Some have an elevator to book; most do not. Tell us the complex, the building and the floor, and we will confirm parking with the office before we come.
Townhomes off Old Columbia Pike
The townhouse groups near Fairland Regional Park are three storeys with garages below and tight interior stairs. Three people is the right crew for those, one on each landing.
Fairland Regional Park and the older lanes
Toward the park and along Old Columbia Pike there are older single-family houses on bigger lots with long driveways and tree cover. We check the driveway before we decide on the truck.
Burtonsville and the north end
At the north end Fairland runs into Burtonsville, where MD-198 meets US-29 and the lots get bigger. Moves up there are house moves with real driveways; we look at the approach before we commit a tall truck.
