Whole houses are our other half
Apartments take up a good chunk of the week, yet we pack out full homes across York County just as often, and no two ever run the same. A downtown York row home behaves nothing like a Jacobus rancher, and a two-story farmhouse down a gravel lane past Dover is its own puzzle again.
Before a thing gets loaded, the crew reads the approach — how wide the doors are, how many flights of stairs, how steep the drive sits, and whether a soft farm lane keeps the big truck parked out at the road. Owen Krebs scouts the tightest row-home access with you up front.
The homes we plan for
Around historic York and Red Lion, hand-carrying is simply how it goes — with row-home stoops and stair runs and no driveway to back into, we take the nearest legal curb and walk each piece up. Out in the newer Shrewsbury and Jacobus subdivisions, there’s plenty of driveway to back right up to. Want it boxed too? See full-service packing.
Typical home-move price bands
| Home | Crew | Flat price |
|---|---|---|
| 1-bed condo or flat | 2 movers | $440 – $660 |
| 2-bed house or townhome | 2–3 movers | $760 – $1,150 |
| 3-bed single-family | 3 movers | $1,250 – $1,950 |
| 4-bed or larger home | 3 movers | $2,050 – $3,200 |
| Row-home stair carry or steep farm-lane haul | 3–4 movers | $2,400 – $3,600 |
On an hourly basis that works out to $140/hr with two movers and $190/hr with three, though whatever you sign up front stays put no matter what. Coverage reaches $1,000,000 on any load; the sixty-cent-a-pound released-value floor comes standard, and you’ve got nine months to bring a claim. Closing on the new place before the current one sells? Short-term storage holds the middle stretch, priced by the week.
Where every dollar of your Felton, PA flat price goes
- The crew reads the approach before a thing is lifted — door widths, how many flights of stairs, and whether a steep or soft driveway parks the truck out at the curb
- We lay corner protectors down the jambs and runner mats along the floors, shielding the place you leave and the one you move into from scuffs
- Bed frames, sectional couches, dining sets and wall units come apart, ride flat, and get rebuilt once we reach the door
- Closet clothing travels upright in wardrobe cartons, so you rehang it at the far end with nothing to refold
- Refrigerators, gun safes and anything hauled up a stairwell ride on heavy-duty dollies and stair-climbing straps
- We set each item exactly where it belongs, the whole load insured to a ceiling of $1,000,000
So where does the price land?
The clock starts at $140/hr for two movers with the truck — or settle the whole thing with one signed York-area flat rate spelled out on a single page
Baked into that rate: the furniture blankets, the hand trucks, the rolls of stretch film, and the patient carries a Dallastown condo or a Red Lion walk-up calls for — along with any COI a York apartment tower or a suburban HOA needs on file before load-day. Add a third mover and the rate steps up to $190 an hour.
