Buckingham Township covers about 33 square miles in the middle of Bucks County. It is home to roughly 21,000 people, yet much of it still looks like open country. Large lots, preserved farms, and old crossroads villages define the township.
That mix shapes how a move works here. Homes are bigger, drives are longer, and neighbors can be a mile apart. LiteMovers, a family-owned mover since 2007, plans each Buckingham move around the property itself.
A Township of Big Lots and Open Land
Buckingham started the first township farmland program in Bucks County after a 1995 voter referendum. As of 2025, more than 6,400 acres are permanently protected from development. Those easements allow farming and livestock, including horses.
The result is a township of horse properties, working farms, and homes on generous acreage. Farm markets sit along roads like Long Lane and Mechanicsville Road. Historic villages such as Holicong, Wycombe, Forest Grove, and Mechanicsville add stone houses and old barns to the mix.
How We Handle Large-Lot Moves
A five-bedroom home with a finished basement, barn, and workshop is a different job than a townhouse. We walk the whole property during the estimate. Then we size the crew, trucks, and packing supplies to match.
Property Walk-Through Checklist
During your Buckingham estimate, we look at these details:
- ✓Driveway length, grade, and surface, including gravel and shared lanes.
- ✓Turnaround room for a truck near the house or barn.
- ✓Outbuildings like garages, sheds, and workshops that need emptying.
- ✓Heavy items such as safes, pianos, gym gear, and riding equipment.
- ✓Soft ground or lawns that may need protection after rain.
Long gravel drives can be hard on a heavy truck in wet weather. If needed, we stage the truck at a firm spot and use carts for the final stretch. That keeps your lawn and drive in good shape.
Barns and garages often hold years of extra items. Our junk removal and donation service can clear what you don’t want to move. Clearing first also makes the main move faster.
Central Bucks Schools and Moving Season
Buckingham is served by the Central Bucks School District. Central Bucks High School East and Holicong Middle School share a campus on Holicong Road. Many families move here for the schools and want to arrive before classes start.
That puts heavy pressure on June, July, and August. If you plan to buy a home in Buckingham, reserve your date as soon as you have a closing. Our guide on the best day of the week to move can also help you pick a smoother date.
When closing dates don’t line up, we offer short-term storage. Your items stay in sealed wooden vaults in our private warehouse near King of Prussia. Learn more about storage between home sales and purchases.

Getting Around: Rt 202, 413, and 263
Several state routes cross the township, and each one matters on moving day. Route planning saves time, especially when a truck must reach a back road.
- ✓US 202 links Doylestown and Lahaska along York Road and Lower York Road.
- ✓PA 413 runs northwest to southeast along Durham Road, through the heart of the township.
- ✓PA 263 follows York Road and shares a stretch with US 202 between Buckingham and Lahaska.
- ✓PA 313 runs along the southwest edge toward Doylestown.
These roads make Buckingham easy to reach from Philadelphia and New Jersey. Many families arrive from New Jersey or from the city. Others leave for out-of-state moves, which our long-distance movers handle from start to finish.

Buckingham Township is served by the Central Bucks School District. Central Bucks High School East and Holicong Middle School are in the township on Holicong Road. Families usually move in summer, so we recommend booking as soon as you have a closing date.
