Had a great experience with Potomac movers. They arrived on time, packed everything with care, and reassembled everything when we got to the new apartment. They were courteous and quick. Would definitely recommend them!

I'm having trouble finding the right words to describe our experience with Potomac Moving Company, but "amazing" and "game changers" come to mind. This was an interstate move (DC to PA) in less-than-ideal conditions (we had to move an adult family member out of the apartment).
The crew, Roberto and Harry, were empathetic, caring, and incredibly efficient with packing, loading, and unloading the one-bedroom apartment. I spent the day worrying (needlessly) that the storage unit I had rented was too small. The crew fit all of the items neatly and safely into a 5x10' unit with room to spare. I've never seen anything like it.
I also want to give kudos to the front office. They were the first company to respond to my inquiry, answered all of my questions patiently, and kept us informed about when the crew was arriving. The value that we received for the price was off the charts.
Put Potomac Moving Company at the top of your list. I would not hesitate to call them again for a move if the need arose.

We used PMC yesterday 5/6 to go across town approximately 15 miles. All of the movers were professional, kind, quick, and careful with our items. They wrapped all of our furniture amazingly which kept it safe from the rain, and my fiancé and I didn’t see them hit a single wall in either place or drop anything. All of our items arrived safely and in the same condition. We definitely recommend this company and will use them again if/when we move in the future.

Potomac Moving was efficient and professional. The process was smooth and the quote they gave me did no change. Th customer service was top notch and they did not hound me when I told them I wanted to shop around.

Absolutely phenomenal. This is the first time I’ve used movers and I chose PMC bc of the strong reviews. Such a great call. The guys were super efficient and friendly. They took really great care of my things. Over and over I watched them go out of their way to be sure something was protected from damage. They checked in with me frequently to be sure things were placed where I wanted them, and they didn’t want to leave until they were sure I was happy. Nothing was damaged. And now I have the afternoon to start setting up my new home instead of returning a truck. Without them I’d probably still be loading up! Best decision I ever made. Can’t recommend them enough.
Frequently Asked Questions About Potomac Moving Company
Why do you base compensation on the weight of the item?
Federal law mandates this practice. The department of transportation requires all moving companies to compensate losses based on item weight. All moving companies under the federal motor carrier safety administration's jurisdiction offer the federally required free coverage of $0.60 per pound, with options for increased coverage at additional cost.
Does Potomac Moving Company charge a booking fee?
Yes, we require a $100 deposit for local moves, which is deducted from your total upon job completion. Rescheduling is penalty-free if done 7 or more days before the scheduled move. Cancellations or rescheduling with less than 7 days' notice result in a 50% refundable deposit. We recommend early booking during busy periods, as our schedule can fill up weeks in advance.
What is a truck fee or travel time?
The truck fee covers the cost of one truck for a day's use, including furniture dollies, tools, and protective blankets. It also serves as transportation for the moving crew. While it might seem less expensive to rent a truck yourself, once all associated costs are factored in, using our trucks often proves more cost-effective and time-efficient.
How long will my move take?
Move duration varies significantly due to factors such as apartment floor, packing thoroughness, elevator size and availability, and distance to the truck. We provide an estimate based on averages of similar moves, but charge only for time worked. Our crews always work efficiently with a mission-oriented approach, ensuring fairness for both clients and our company.
What if traffic delays my move?
Traffic delays are beyond our control. We will complete your move regardless, charging the same hourly rate until the job is finished.
What size truck do you use on a move?
Our fleet consists of 26' straight moving trucks. For unusually high volume moves, please inform us to allow for adjustments. If a second trip is necessary, we charge for the additional time. We prefer making multiple trips with our 26' trucks over using larger vehicles, as 18-wheelers significantly increase move costs due to higher truck expenses and driver training requirements.
Why don't you cover items that are moved from or into a storage unit?
Once items are placed in or removed from a storage unit, we no longer have control or access to them. Therefore, we cannot provide coverage for these items after they leave our care and possession.
Why don't you cover press-board furniture?
Press-board furniture is not designed for longevity. Composed of sawdust and glue, it's intended for short-term use and can weaken over multiple relocations. While we handle these items with care and wrap them, we do not cover any resulting damages due to their inherent fragility.
Will Potomac Moving Company protect my floors & walls?
We take extensive precautions to protect your property. This includes carefully padding and wrapping all items, removing and wrapping glass shelves and table tops, padding door jambs, hard surface floors, and railings, and installing protective floor runners throughout the home. We also cover or shrink wrap upholstered furniture and bag all mattresses before moving.
Does Potomac Moving Company disassemble and reassemble furniture?
Yes, we disassemble furniture as needed for the move and reassemble all items that we took apart upon placement in your new home. We follow your directions for item placement in the new location.
