Moving in Georgetown, DC? Here's What You Should Know

Historic Streets, Tight Spaces, and Permits

Moving in Georgetown is like playing Tetris with 18th-century architecture. The neighborhood is known for its cobblestone streets, narrow alleys, and multi-story rowhomes — beautiful to live in, but a nightmare if you don’t know how to move furniture through a three-story brownstone with a winding staircase and no loading zone.

We understand the challenges:

  • Limited street parking for moving trucks
  • Height restrictions under historic trees
  • DC’s strict moving regulations and noise ordinances

That’s why we assist Georgetown clients with DC Department of Transportation (DDOT) permit applications and logistics planning. You can learn more about temporary moving permits and apply directly through the DDOT Public Space Portal — or just let us handle it for you.

We recommend scheduling permits at least 7 days in advance, especially if you're moving near M Street NW, Prospect Street, or Wisconsin Ave, where traffic and restrictions are tight.

Neighborhood-Specific Know-How

Georgetown isn’t just any neighborhood. It’s one of DC’s oldest and most prestigious — and it requires a tailored approach. Our team is deeply familiar with:

  • Historic preservation zones and what movers can/can’t do
  • Building policies at residences like Georgetown Park Condos, The Papermill, and The Montrose
  • High-traffic windows to avoid M Street congestion

We also know the off-the-record tips most movers don’t — like when it’s easiest to snag curb space on 31st St, or how to carry a sofa through a carriage house without damaging 120-year-old trim.

This hyper-local knowledge saves you time, money, and headaches — and it’s what sets BoxStar Movers DC apart in the Georgetown market.

What Makes Our Georgetown Moving Crews Different

Local Expertise With a White-Glove Touch

Georgetown isn’t just historic — it’s fragile, compact, and often luxurious. That’s why our crews receive specialized training for:

  • Antique furniture handling
  • Fine art and piano moving
  • Custom stair carries and wall protection techniques
  • Protective floor runners and padded doorways for older homes

Whether you’re moving into a Federal-style rowhouse, a Georgian estate on N Street, or a brownstone overlooking the Potomac, we treat your space like it’s a museum. Our local moving services ensure delicate finishes, original hardwood, and heirloom furniture are moved without a scratch.

We’ve helped relocate:

  • Art collectors with climate-sensitive crates
  • Families moving into multimillion-dollar homes with custom millwork
  • Professionals in embassy-owned townhomes near Montrose Park
