Across the Mason-Dixon Line
Rising Sun, Port Deposit, and Perryville are closer to West Nottingham than West Chester is, and families move across the line in both directions. We are licensed for interstate work, so a crossing runs on one estimate and one crew. See Maryland movers for the longer routes toward the Eastern Shore and Annapolis. Delaware moves to Newark and Wilmington follow Route 273 and are covered on moving to Delaware.
Aberdeen Proving Ground Families
West Nottingham is a popular home for APG families who want Pennsylvania schools and a few acres. Those moves run on report dates, not school calendars, and often need weekend dates. We provide a detailed inventory for reimbursement and run the move as interstate on one crew. Household goods wait in our warehouse when housing is not ready.

Route 1, Route 272, and Shift Change
Route 1 is limited-access here, and Route 272 carries trucks between Route 1 and I-95. We enter at the interchanges, avoid Route 272 at rush hour, and stage on side roads near Nottingham village. Traffic at the Herr’s plant on Route 272 peaks at shift change, and we plan around it.
Oxford Schools and the Farm Lanes
West Nottingham is in the Oxford Area School District, and summer dates book two to three weeks out. The lanes off Route 272, Ridge Road, and Chrome Road are long, gravel, and mostly straight. We scout on the estimate and bring a shorter truck when the lane turns at the barn. Chester County storage covers the gap when a sale closes before housing is ready.
