Southampton to Washington, DC Moves Down I-95
The 310-mile move from the East End down to Washington tends to follow a career: a relocation for government, law, lobbying, or a diplomatic post, a household setting up a second home in Georgetown or on the Maryland and Virginia side, or a family moving full-time after years of summers out here. It is a half-day-plus on I-95, long enough that a dedicated truck and one crew are the right way to do it. We pack and crate in Southampton, drive the corridor, and unload into your DC-area home ourselves — no terminal transfer in between.
The Drive South
We run I-95 down through New Jersey, around the Delaware and Baltimore stretch, and into the District — roughly six hours of road plus a compliant rest stop. The DC end carries its own access puzzles that line up neatly with what we handle out here: Georgetown’s historic blocks and narrow rowhouse stairs, condo and co-op buildings that demand a Certificate of Insurance, and District residential streets that need an emergency no-parking permit reserved for the moving truck. We sort all of that before we quote so the crew arrives to a clear spot and a building that is expecting them.
What We Handle End to End
- One flat written quote covering the East End load, the 310-mile drive, and the carry into your DC, Maryland, or Virginia home.
- Custom crating for art, antiques, marble, and the fragile estate pieces that have to survive the corridor.
- The building COI and the District parking permit arranged with management and the city before move day.
- The same Max Moving crew end to end — loaded once here, unloaded once there.
- Climate-controlled storage out here if the DC place is not ready or the East End house closes first.
A dedicated truck on a lane this length means a firm delivery day, not a window. The paintings, the wine, and the heirloom furniture go on once and come off once, handled the whole way by the crew that wrapped them in Southampton.
