Furlong is a small village on York Road (Route 263) in Central Bucks. The line between Buckingham Township and Doylestown Township runs right through it. Locals know it as the crossroads where York Road meets Edison-Furlong Road and Forest Grove Road. Families often pick Furlong for its schools and its short drive into Doylestown.
LiteMovers is a family-owned mover based in King of Prussia, in business since 2007. We serve all of Bucks County, and we plan Furlong moves around two things: the home type and the school calendar.
Where Furlong Families Live
Furlong mixes older homes on York Road with newer townhome and single-family communities set back from the main road. Recent listings name neighborhoods such as Spring Hill, Windsor Square, Villages at Buckingham, and the Townhomes at Heritage. Side roads like Taylortown Road and Lower Mountain Road lead to bigger lots and a few farm parcels.
Each housing type changes the plan on move day. Here is how we approach the most common ones.
| Home type | What we plan for |
|---|---|
| Townhomes such as Heritage and Villages at Buckingham | Shared parking courts, tight stair turns, and HOA rules on truck parking and move hours. |
| Single-family homes in newer subdivisions | Finished basements, garages full of bikes and sports gear, and kids’ rooms packed in a set order. |
| Older homes and farmhouses on York Road | Narrow original stairs, low doorways, and heavy antiques that need extra padding. |
| Larger lots off Lower Mountain Road | Long driveways and truck turnaround space, which we check before the crew arrives. |
Planning Around the Central Bucks School Calendar
Both Buckingham and Doylestown Townships belong to the Central Bucks School District. CBSD is one of the largest districts in Pennsylvania, with about 16,500 students. For many Furlong families, the school year sets the moving date.
Summer is the busiest window, so those dates fill fast. Book early if you want a late June or early July move. That leaves your kids weeks to settle in before the first bell.
Some families move mid-year for a new job. A long weekend or school break makes that first week easier. Our packing services let parents keep up with work and homework while we box the house.
A Furlong family moving checklist
- ✓Confirm your new school with CBSD registration before you lock in a moving date.
- ✓Ask your HOA about truck parking and approved move hours.
- ✓Label each child’s boxes by room so beds go together first on night one.
- ✓Pack a bin of school supplies, chargers, and sports uniforms that rides in your car.
- ✓Need just a few rooms moved before closing? Ask about our small moves service.
Moving to or from Furlong?
Tell us your school timing and your home type. We will build a plan around both.
Getting Around York Road on Move Day
Route 263 is the main road through Furlong. To the south it runs toward Jamison and Warminster. To the north it reaches the village of Buckingham at Route 413, then heads on to Lahaska.
Route 313, known as Swamp Road, ends at York Road right by Furlong. That makes the village quick to reach from Doylestown and the Route 611 bypass. We try to time arrivals around school bus and rush hour traffic.
Many Furlong moves stay close to home. A family may trade a townhome for a single-family house, or cross into Buckingham. Others head for downtown Doylestown or nearby Warrington. We handle short local hops and full moves from Philadelphia alike.

Questions About Moving in Furlong
What township is Furlong, PA in?
Furlong sits on the border of Buckingham Township and Doylestown Township. The township line follows York Road (Route 263) through the village crossroads. Your township depends on which side of the line your home sits. That affects permits, trash service, and local taxes.
Which school district serves Furlong?
The Central Bucks School District serves Furlong. Both Buckingham and Doylestown Townships are part of CBSD. Check your exact address with the district before you move, because school assignments depend on where your home sits.

Early summer is the best time for most Furlong families. A late June or early July move gives kids weeks to settle before school starts. Summer dates book quickly, so contact LiteMovers a few months ahead if you can.
