Kevin, Omar and Jose were amazing. Super helpful and very careful with everything. I would highly recommend using Royal Movers.
Royal Movers helped me out 3 times in the past few years. They are careful, polite, efficient and hard working. I definitely will use them again if needed.
Most DC neighborhoods require parking permits for moving trucks. We recommend applying for a No Parking Emergency permit through DC’s Department of Transportation at least 5 business days before your move. The permit typically costs $25-$50 and reserves street space for the moving truck. We can guide you through this process when you book your move.
Local moves within DC typically range from $400 to $2,500 depending on the size of your home and distance. A studio apartment move usually costs $400-$800, while a 3-bedroom house averages $1,200-$2,500. Long-distance moves from DC are priced by weight and distance. We provide free, no-obligation quotes so you know exactly what to expect.
The best times to move in DC are mid-month and during fall or winter. Avoid the end and beginning of months when most leases turn over, and steer clear of summer when demand is highest. Also consider that many federal employees relocate at fiscal year-end (September), making that month busier. Weekday moves are often more affordable than weekends.
Absolutely. Our crews have extensive experience with DC’s historic rowhouses and their narrow staircases. We use furniture sliders, protective padding, and proper lifting techniques to navigate tight spaces safely. For particularly challenging items, we have specialized equipment and can sometimes hoist furniture through windows if necessary.
Yes, we regularly move residents in and out of DC’s high-rise buildings. We’re familiar with building protocols, elevator reservations, and Certificate of Insurance requirements. We coordinate with building management ahead of time to ensure everything is scheduled properly and your move goes smoothly.
We recommend booking at least 3-4 weeks in advance, especially if you’re moving during peak season (May-September) or at month’s end. For last-minute moves, call us—we often have availability and can accommodate short-notice relocations based on crew availability.
