Moving a house on Delmarva is rarely a clean four walls and a driveway. It’s a historic place in downtown Salisbury with stairs built narrow a century ago, a bayfront home in Ocean City with a soft yard and a dock out back, or a farmhouse down a gravel lane in Wicomico County. Always Moving has packed and carried all of them since 2015.
Garrett’s crew chiefs — Dwayne Carter, Sean Whaley, and Marcus Pruitt — run these jobs with the protection a real house move needs: floor runners on hardwood and tile, banister and door-frame padding, and felt under anything that slides.
Old Homes, Waterfront Lots, and Long Lanes
In historic Berlin and the older streets of Salisbury, we measure doorways and stairwells before we lift, then hoist or hand-carry pieces that won’t make the turn. On waterfront and bayfront lots we plank soft ground so the dolly doesn’t sink, and out in the farm country we’ll back the truck as far down the lane as the ground allows and shuttle the rest.
Disassembly That Saves Your Furniture and Your Back
Beds, sectionals, dining sets, and shelving come apart in the old house and go back together in the new one, wrapped and labeled so nothing arrives scratched. Local house moves price by the hour at $148 or $202; larger homes can go on a flat band, and either way you get a written estimate and a $135 deposit credited to the total.
