Local Moving Tips for Philadelphia: What to Know Before You Move

Historic Charm, Urban Flow

Embrace the vibrant history and dynamic energy of Philadelphia. This Philadelphia moving guide helps you navigate the city's unique logistical challenges to ensure a smooth transition.

Pros

Rich history and culture

Diverse job market

Affordable compared to other East Coast cities

Cons

Challenging parking and narrow streets

Humid summers, snowy winters

Competitive real estate market

Philadelphia's housing market is dynamic, offering a blend of historic homes and modern apartments. The median home sale price is typically in the low to mid two hundred thousands, which is more affordable than many other major East Coast cities. However, popular neighborhoods like Center City, Fishtown, and Northern Liberties can be competitive. Marco inventory walkthrough feature helps you get accurate quotes, making your Philadelphia home moving budget clear from the start.

The Ultimate Philadelphia Moving Checklist

Secure Your Spot, Smooth Your Move

Navigating Philadelphia's unique parking and street regulations is key to a stress-free move. This Philadelphia moving checklist guides you through every essential step, ensuring your relocation is seamless.

  • Create a detailed inventory of your belongings using Marco inventory walkthrough feature, which allows you to document items with photos for accurate quotes and future moves.
  • Research and secure temporary no-parking permits from the Philadelphia Parking Authority (PPA) at least four business days in advance, especially if you're moving to an area with narrow streets or limited parking. Marco concierge support can help coordinate this for your Philadelphia moving services.
  • Contact your utility providers (PECO for electricity and gas, Philadelphia Water Department for water) at least two weeks before your move to set up or transfer services.
  • Obtain a Certificate of Insurance (COI) from your chosen Philadelphia moving company if your new building requires it, particularly for high-rise apartments in Center City. Marco ensures vetted professionals can provide this documentation promptly.
  • Start packing early, decluttering as you go, and consider using Marco for professional packing and unpacking services to save time and effort.
  • Notify the USPS of your change of address and update your voter registration for your new Philadelphia address.
