Old towns and new suburbswith a lot of open road

Frederick County is where the DC suburbs turn into Maryland countryside. In one week the crew works a narrow Frederick rowhouse street, a brand-new Urbana townhouse and a farmhouse with a quarter-mile driveway. We plan each before the truck leaves, and none of it is billed by the hour.

What we handle for you:

  • Downtown Frederick streetsNarrow, one-way and short on curb space. The truck's spot is planned ahead, and the carry is in the price.
  • New communitiesUrbana, Lake Linganore and Ballenger Creek set HOA move hours and truck parking. We plan around them.
  • Long drivewaysMiddletown, Walkersville and the farms beyond: the carry from the truck to the door is never an extra.
  • The drive up 270Forty minutes from Rockville on a good day. It's built into the flat price, not the clock.

What we move in Frederick County

Six in ten homes are houses

Frederick County is the most house-heavy place we move: six in ten homes are single-family and another two in ten are townhouses or rowhouses. Moving day here is about basements, garages, driveways and stairs, not elevators.

  • Single-family houses60%

    Middletown, Walkersville, Mount Airy, Urbana and most of the county. Big furniture, basements and long driveways.

  • Townhouses & rowhouses22%

    Downtown Frederick's rowhouses, Ballenger Creek, Urbana and Brunswick Crossing. Narrow stairs or three floors of them, planned room by room.

  • Mid- and high-rises (10+ homes)11%

    The newer apartment buildings around downtown Frederick and along Route 85. Elevator bookings handled ahead.

  • Small buildings (2–9 homes)6%

    Garden apartments and small buildings in Frederick, often walk-ups.

Plan around Fort Detrick and the school year

Fort Detrick sits inside the city of Frederick, so the county's busiest moving weeks follow the orders and the school calendar.

  • Military dog tags

    Summer PCS season

    Fort Detrick orders peak from May to August. Book as soon as your dates are set.

  • Schoolhouse with a bell tower

    Before school starts

    Late July and August fill up with families moving before the first day at Frederick County schools.

  • Wall calendar with a day circled

    End of every month

    Apartment leases turn over on the 1st, so the last days of the month book up first.

  • Price tag

    Fridays and Saturdays

    Always more expensive than weekdays. A midweek move saves money.
