Ferndale is the small brick-rancher community wedged between Glen Burnie and the BWI airport fence. About 17,000 people live here on the grid of streets off Baltimore-Annapolis Boulevard, a mix of post-war Cape Cods, ranchers and duplexes with a light rail station in the middle. It is part of Anne Arundel County, whose seat is Annapolis, and it is one of the best-connected places in the county by road.
Local moving rates in Ferndale
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 plan for in Ferndale
Baltimore-Annapolis Boulevard (MD-648) and the light rail
MD-648 is the old main road through Ferndale, and the Baltimore Light RailLink runs beside it with a station at Ferndale. That is convenient for residents and a nuisance for a truck: the crossings and the narrow shoulder mean we load from side streets rather than the boulevard itself.
Highways in every direction
Ferndale sits in the middle of the I-97, I-695, MD-100 and MD-295 tangle around the airport. Baltimore, Annapolis, Columbia and Washington are all a straight highway run, so long-distance and cross-county moves start easily here. The one thing we avoid is the I-695 and I-97 merge at the evening peak.
Small houses, full basements
Ferndale ranchers and Cape Cods are compact upstairs, but nearly all have a full basement reached by an interior stair, and many have a shed. The basement freezer, the washer and dryer and the workbench are the items that decide the hours. Count them and tell us.
Airport-area apartments
Along the edges near the airport and Glen Burnie there are garden apartments that turn over often with airline and hotel staff. Those are quick one- and two-bedroom jobs, and the complexes generally know where a truck should park; we confirm it before we come.
Single-item runs from Glen Burnie
The shopping along Ritchie Highway in Glen Burnie sends us regular one-piece deliveries into Ferndale. A sofa or a fridge is a quick job and we price it as one.
