Best Middletown, DE Moving Company
The Town of Middletown has grown from a small farm town into one of the busiest places in southern New Castle County. It went from about 6,000 people in 2000 to more than 23,000 by 2020, and new neighborhoods keep going up around the old downtown. Our Tri-State crew moves families into and out of Middletown all the time. As part of our Tri-State moving service, we know how moves work here, from brand-new houses to older homes on Main Street.
Much of Middletown is newer single-family homes and townhomes in planned communities off Route 299, Route 71, and Route 301. Many of these neighborhoods have HOA rules about truck parking, move hours, and storage pods, so send them to us and we will plan around them. New construction also means closing dates that shift. We are used to working with buyers who need to move on short notice or hold their things for a few weeks while the builder finishes up.
Downtown is different. The historic district along Main Street and Broad Street has older homes, twins, and small shops, including the Everett Theatre. Streets are tighter, parking is on the street, and many older houses have steep stairs and narrow doorways. We check the block before moving day, pick a safe spot for the truck, and take apart large furniture when it will not fit. If you need time between homes, our storage service can hold your things until you are ready.
Families move here for more house for the money and the Appoquinimink School District, which has built new schools to keep up with growth. Many residents drive to work up Route 1 or Route 301, so plan your move day around rush hour if you can. We will also time the truck so it is not stuck in that traffic with your things on board. Once you are settled, try dinner at Pithari on Main Street, walk the trails at Silver Lake Park, or come downtown in August for the Olde-Tyme Peach Festival. Moving farther away? We also handle long-distance moves.
We also serve nearby Newark, New Castle, and Wilmington, so a move anywhere in New Castle County is close to home for us. A & M Friendly Movers is family-owned since 2019, and we treat every Middletown move like we are moving our own family. Our mission is simple: quality, professional service at a fair price. Home is where the heart is, and moving is where it starts. Call 410-499-8777 for a free quote.
