FAQs: Moving to Philadelphia
What’s the best time of month to move?
Mid-month and mid-week often have better elevator and street access. Month-end dates are busiest—book early.
Do I need a city permit for my moving truck?
Some neighborhoods require temporary no-parking signs or permits. We’ll advise based on your block and timing.
How does parking work for rowhome moves?
We aim to stage the truck as close as possible and protect entryways and pathways. Permits help reserve curb space.
Can LiteMovers provide packing?
Yes—full or partial packing, with specialty protection for art, mirrors, and heirlooms.
What if my closing is delayed?
We can place items into vaulted storage and deliver when you’re ready—no need to re-hire a second company.
