Your York, PA Moving Team
York moves come in two kinds. In the city, it is brick rowhomes and twins on narrow streets around Continental Square and the Central Market, with steep front steps and street parking only. Out in York County, it is newer homes in Springettsbury, York Township, Dallastown, and Shrewsbury, many of them bought by families moving up I-83 from the Baltimore area for more space and a shorter tax bill.
Simple Moving Solutions serves York from our Chadds Ford office, about an hour and fifteen minutes east, and we hold licenses for Pennsylvania and Maryland, so a move from Towson or Hunt Valley to York is covered the same way as one across town. We also move people between York and Lancaster, Harrisburg, and Chester County. Every move comes with an itemized quote and trained, insured crews.

Why York Chooses Simple Moving
City rowhomes, county homes, and moves up I-83 from Maryland make up most York moves. Here is what you get with our crews.

City Rowhomes Planned For
Narrow streets, steep front steps, and tight stairs in York's older neighborhoods are measured and planned before move day.
Bigger Homes in the County
Moves into newer homes in York Township, Springettsbury, and Shrewsbury mean bigger loads. We size the truck and crew to match.

When to Move in York
The York Fair, I-83 traffic, and the school calendar all shape a York moving day. Here is what we plan around.
York Fair
The York State Fair in late July brings heavy traffic around the fairgrounds on the west side. We plan routes around it.
I-83 rush hours
I-83 toward Baltimore and Harrisburg backs up at rush hour. Moves from Maryland are timed to avoid it.
York College move weeks
Move-in in late August and move-out in May fill streets near campus in Spring Garden.
Summer peak
June through August is peak moving season, especially for families moving before the school year. Book four to six weeks ahead.
Month-end turnover
Apartment leases turn over at month-end, when elevators and our calendar are busiest.
Winter moves
Steep blocks in the city and long driveways in the county get icy. We check access the day before and bring floor protection.
