Local Movers in Takoma and Brightwood, DC
Takoma DC, Brightwood, and Shepherd Park form Upper Georgia Avenue’s tree-lined residential belt — Takoma with its historic Craftsman bungalows and “Tree City” character, Brightwood with brick rowhouses and detached family homes, and Shepherd Park with mid-century detached homes north of Walter Reed. These are steady, generational neighborhoods where a lot of our clients have owned the same home for 30+ years. Our moves here: longtime Shepherd Park owner-occupants downsizing into senior communities, Takoma bungalow owners transferring out of state, Brightwood family upsizing between rowhouses, Walter Reed campus-adjacent physicians and researchers cycling with military and NIH assignments, and the steady flow of Silver Spring MD to DC-side moves (and vice versa) that this corridor generates.
Call The Movers has worked Upper Georgia Avenue for over two decades — we know which Shepherd Park driveways can hold a 26-foot truck, the historic-district preservation constraints on Takoma bungalows, and the Metro Red Line move-in windows at the Takoma station. Top-rated, licensed, insured, BBB A+ accredited, professional moving team, no third-party subcontractors.
