Sellersville packs a lot into a small space. The borough covers just over one square mile, with about 4,500 residents and fewer than 2,000 homes. The East Branch of Perkiomen Creek winds through town and links it to Perkasie. A ridge line rises on the other side. That tight footprint means close neighbors, short driveways, and streets that fill up fast.
LiteMovers is a family-owned mover, in business since 2007 and based in King of Prussia. We move households all over Upper Bucks. Here is how we approach a move in this creekside borough. For other towns nearby, visit our Bucks County movers hub.
A Borough Built Along Bethlehem Pike
Sellersville began as a stop called Sellers Tavern on Bethlehem Pike. The road linked Philadelphia to Bethlehem. The North Pennsylvania Railroad came through in the 1860s, and small textile mills followed. Today Main Street still follows the old pike, and locals call it Old Route 309.
Route 152 runs along Main Street and Park Avenue toward Perkasie. The modern Route 309 freeway bypasses the town to the west. It has exits at Route 152 and at Lawn Avenue. Those two exits are how our trucks usually reach the borough.
Older Homes, Shared Walls, and Tight Lots
Most of Sellersville is residential now. You will find older single homes near the center and twin homes on streets like East Park Avenue. Some twins share a driveway with the house next door. Some have finished basements and third-floor bedrooms, so the crew climbs a lot of stairs.
Our checklist for a Sellersville home
- ✓Ask your neighbor about the shared driveway before move day.
- ✓Measure tight attic and basement stairs for large furniture.
- ✓Clear a path along narrow side yards to the back door.
- ✓Check whether the truck can park in front or must use a side street.
- ✓Pad railings, door frames, and old floors before the first carry.
We size the truck to the street. On tight blocks, a smaller truck can park closer and save long carries. If your new place is far away, we can shuttle goods to a larger truck. Our small moves and apartment moves teams work well for these jobs.
Borough Rules That Affect Moving Day
Sellersville has a few local rules worth knowing. They come from borough notices, and they can change, so call Borough Hall at 140 East Church Street to confirm.
Street closures for events
The borough closes Main Street for some events. The fall Gallery of the Arts closed North Main Street from East Church Street to Elm Street. Winterfest in December brings carriage rides on a closed Main Street. Avoid those dates if your home sits on or near Main.
Road work on Lawn Avenue
A sewer main project on Lawn Avenue began in September 2025. It runs between Almont Road and Maple Avenue and was expected to last 18 to 20 months. We check the work zone before we route a truck that way.
Trash, bulk items, and rentals
Each home now has one collection day for trash, recycling, and bulk items. Refuse cannot go to the curb before 6 p.m. the night before. Landlords must have a rental unit inspected before a new tenant moves in. Our junk removal and donation service can haul leftover items so you do not have to wait for pickup day.

Pennridge Schools and Moving Season
Sellersville is part of the Pennridge School District. The district serves eight towns across about 95 square miles. These include Perkasie, Dublin, Silverdale, and Hilltown. Sellersville Elementary is one of seven elementary schools, and older students go to Pennridge High School.
Families often move here from Philadelphia or Montgomery County to join Pennridge before fall. Summer dates fill up, so book early. Snow season brings another issue. The borough asks drivers to move cars off the street before storms so plows can clear curb to curb. Winter moves need a backup date.
Local Spots That Help Plan the Day
- ✓Sellersville Theater 1894 on West Temple Avenue began as a livery stable for the Washington House. Show nights bring extra cars to the area.
- ✓Lake Lenape Park lies along the dammed creek and spans both Sellersville and Perkasie.
- ✓The Teller Cigar Factory is on the National Register and shows the town’s working past.
- ✓Grand View Hospital has served the area since 1913, which draws staff who relocate here.
How LiteMovers Helps Sellersville Residents
Long-time owners often downsize out of multi-level homes. Our senior move team sorts, packs, and sets up the new place. Our packing services protect fragile items in older homes. We also store goods in sealed wooden vaults with a signed inventory.
We work across the Pennridge area too. See our pages for Perkasie, Dublin, and Quakertown.
Sellersville Moving Questions
Can a full-size moving truck park on Sellersville streets?
It depends on the block. Some streets near the center are tight and have little open curb space. We check your street ahead of time and may use a smaller truck that parks closer. On busy blocks, a shuttle to a larger truck keeps the move safe and quick.
Should I avoid any dates for a Main Street move in Sellersville?
Yes, avoid borough event days when Main Street closes. Past closures include the fall Gallery of the Arts on North Main Street and Winterfest in December. Call Borough Hall at 140 East Church Street to confirm dates. We will then pick a day with open streets.
How do you handle a shared driveway at a Sellersville twin?
We plan the truck spot so both households keep access. Some twins in the borough share a driveway with the next home. Let your neighbor know your move date early. Our crew keeps the drive clear when we are not loading and works quickly to limit any blocking.
What school district serves Sellersville?
Sellersville is in the Pennridge School District. The district also serves Perkasie, Dublin, Silverdale, and four townships. Sellersville Elementary is one of its seven elementary schools. Many families move in early summer so children can settle in before the school year starts.
Can you take away old furniture when I leave Sellersville?
Yes, our junk removal and donation service hauls unwanted items. The borough now collects bulk items on each home's single weekly pickup day. If you cannot wait for that day, we load the items during your move. We donate usable pieces when we can.
How do your trucks reach Sellersville from King of Prussia?
Our trucks usually take Route 309 north and exit at Route 152 or Lawn Avenue. Route 309 runs as a freeway west of the borough. Route 152 then leads along Main Street and Park Avenue. We check local road work, such as the Lawn Avenue sewer project, before we leave.
