Washington to Pittsburgh Movers

Pittsburgh runs about 245 miles west of our Northeast DC yard, out I-70 and onto the Pennsylvania Turnpike, and it is a lane we cover regularly. A fair number of these jobs are families heading west for work: a Columbia Heights walk-up household landing in Squirrel Hill or Shadyside, a Navy Yard condo couple moving to the South Side, or a job transfer toward the Oakland universities and medical centers. Whatever the move, Payne Free Moving carries it on one truck with the same crew the full lane, so the hands that load your DC home are the hands that unload it in Pittsburgh.

It is roughly four hours over the mountains on the Turnpike. Marcus plans the route and load points in advance, and most Pittsburgh jobs are still loaded and delivered within one day. At the DC end the crew focuses on access: a Shaw rowhouse with a narrow stoop and no driveway, a posted No-Parking sign on a one-way street a 26-foot truck barely fits, or a high-rise with a freight elevator and a certificate of insurance. We are a full-service mover for any household, apartment, or office, licensed and insured across DC, Maryland, and Virginia, with $1M in cargo coverage and US DOT and MC authority for interstate moves. One truck and one crew carry the job the whole way, across the state line. Request a DC to Pittsburgh quote, or read how our long-distance moving service handles the westbound lane.

One flat rate, approved before loading, covers all 245 miles over the mountains. Send the size of each home and how we get in at both, and it holds from DC to Pittsburgh. The hills stay Pittsburgh’s problem, not an hourly charge on your bill.
