Moving in Foggy Bottom? Here's What Most Movers Get Wrong

The Real Challenges of Moving in Foggy Bottom

Foggy Bottom is one of Washington, DC’s most dynamic neighborhoods — a tight-knit grid of high-rise apartments, historic buildings, and government offices wrapped around George Washington University and the Kennedy Center.

But if you're not familiar with the area, a move here can go sideways fast:

  • Limited curbside space and rigid loading restrictions
  • Congested traffic on 23rd Street NW and Washington Circle
  • Strict building access procedures at places like The Atlas or The York Apartments
  • Seasonal chaos during GWU move-in/move-out weeks

Most movers show up late, park illegally, or waste your time arguing with the front desk. At BoxStar Movers, we’ve done hundreds of moves here — we know every alley, loading dock, and move-out form this neighborhood can throw at us.

📍 Looking for a mover that’s already on your building’s approved vendor list? We probably are.

Permit-Proof, Stress-Free, and Always On Time

In Foggy Bottom, the difference between a smooth move and a disaster often comes down to one thing: planning.

We help:

  • Schedule moves during low-traffic windows
  • Secure DC temporary parking permits with advance notice
  • Communicate with building managers for streamlined loading access
  • Ensure elevator/freight protocols are followed without delays

🎓 Need help during GWU finals or move-out week? We know the rhythm of the semester and plan around it. BoxStar Movers
