Kintnersville is about as far north as Bucks County goes. This small village sits where Route 611 meets the end of Route 32, near the Delaware River. It lies mostly in Nockamixon Township and spills into Durham Township. New Jersey is just across the water. Homes here sit on wide lots, wooded hillsides, and old farm parcels.
LiteMovers is based in King of Prussia, and we have been moving families since 2007. A Kintnersville job is one of our longest local runs in Bucks County. We plan it like a small expedition, because one missed detail can cost hours.
Why Distance Changes the Plan
From our base, the trip north takes the crew through central Bucks and up Route 611. That drive is long, so we pack the truck with every tool, pad, and spare part we might need. There is no quick run back to the warehouse once we arrive.
We confirm the start time, gate codes, and directions days ahead. GPS can mislead drivers on rural lanes, so we ask you for landmarks. A photo of your driveway entrance helps the driver line up the turn.
River Roads and Cliff Roads
Two state roads shape most moves here. Route 611, called Easton Road, runs north to Riegelsville and south toward Doylestown. Near Kintnersville, it passes right under the Nockamixon Cliffs. These north-facing cliffs stretch about three miles along the river.
Route 32, called River Road in many places, follows the Delaware River south. It passes Upper Black Eddy, Uhlerstown, and Erwinna, and crosses the Delaware Canal more than once. Because it hugs the river, Route 32 is prone to flooding. The June 2006 flood closed a stretch between Route 611 and Narrows Hill Road.
Before we route a truck on River Road
- ✓We check PennDOT notices for closures and lane work.
- ✓We watch for high water after heavy rain.
- ✓We plan turnarounds, since pull-offs along the canal are small.
- ✓We avoid low-clearance or weight-limited side roads.
- ✓We keep Route 611 as the backup path.
Rural Property Challenges
Most homes around Kintnersville are not on tidy suburban streets. Here are the issues we plan for most often.
| What you have | What we do |
|---|---|
| A long gravel or dirt driveway | Walk it first and decide if the truck can go up or should stage at the road. |
| A steep or wooded lane | Use a smaller shuttle truck to move goods to the main truck. |
| A barn, shed, or workshop | Pack tools and equipment separately and label each load. |
| An old farmhouse with tight stairs | Take apart large pieces and pad beams, doors, and floors. |
| Soft ground after rain | Lay down boards or pick a dry day to avoid ruts. |
Some people moving out have spent years on the land. A barn full of old items can stall a move. Our junk removal and donation crew can clear outbuildings before the truck is loaded. For sellers, a pre-listing cleanout helps a rural home show well.

The Townships Around the Village
Nockamixon Township
Nockamixon holds most of Kintnersville, plus villages like Ferndale and Revere. Route 412 and Route 563 cross its southwest side. The township has an open space program that helps owners preserve land. That is one reason the area stays so green.
Durham Township
Durham sits to the north along the river. It is home to the historic Durham Mill and Furnace site, listed on the National Register in 1976. Route 212 runs through it on Durham Road. About 1,100 people live there, so homes are spread far apart.
Springfield Township
Springfield lies to the west, near the Saucon Valley. It has historic farms, covered bridges, and villages like Springtown and Pleasant Valley. Many residents use Quakertown, Coopersburg, or Hellertown mailing addresses.
Palisades Schools and Family Moves
Kintnersville is home to the Palisades School District office and Palisades High School. The district serves Nockamixon, Durham, Springfield, Tinicum, and Bridgeton Townships, plus Riegelsville. Elementary options include Durham Nockamixon, Springfield, and Tinicum. Families moving in often aim to arrive in summer.

Kintnersville Moving Questions
Do you really travel to Kintnersville from King of Prussia?
Yes, we serve all of Bucks County, including the far north. Kintnersville is one of our longest local trips. We plan the start time around the drive and bring every tool we need. That way the crew can finish your move without returning to base.
Can your truck get up my long gravel driveway?
Often it can, but we check first. We ask for photos and walk the lane on move day. If the drive is steep, narrow, or soft, we park at the road. A smaller shuttle truck then carries your goods between the house and the main truck.
Is River Road safe to use on moving day?
Usually, but we check conditions first. Route 32 follows the Delaware River and is prone to flooding after heavy rain. A 2006 flood closed part of it near Kintnersville. If River Road looks risky, we use Route 611 instead.
Can you clear out a barn before we move?
Yes, our junk removal and donation crew clears barns, sheds, and workshops. We sort what goes to your new home, what gets donated, and what gets hauled away. Clearing outbuildings first keeps moving day on schedule and helps the property show well.
What school district serves Kintnersville?
Kintnersville is in the Palisades School District. The district office and Palisades High School are both in Kintnersville. The district also covers Durham, Springfield, Tinicum, and Bridgeton Townships and Riegelsville. Families often plan summer moves so children start the year in their new school.
Do you move people from Kintnersville to New Jersey?
Yes, we handle moves across the river into New Jersey. Bridges at Upper Black Eddy and Uhlerstown connect to Milford and Frenchtown. We pick a crossing that fits the truck and the route. LiteMovers holds federal and state licenses for these moves.
