MOVING TO PHILADELPHIA?

Here’s What You Should Know Before You Arrive

✓

One of the Most Walkable Cities on the East Coast
Philadelphia is built for daily life on foot. SEPTA’s bus, trolley, subway, and regional rail network covers the full metro. For anyone coming from a car-dependent city, the shift is immediate.
✓

Housing That Doesn’t Price You Out of the Northeast
Compared to Boston, New York, and DC, Philadelphia’s median home price sits well below its neighbors. Buyers and renters find real options without the bidding wars that define other East Coast markets.
✓

A Food Scene That Stands on Its Own
Historic markets running for over a century, acclaimed restaurant rows, and a Michelin Guide. The range from BYOBs to tasting menus gives Philadelphia a culinary identity few cities can match.
✓

History You Walk Through Daily
Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Barnes Foundation. The concentration of landmarks is unmatched outside of Washington DC.
✓

Central Position on the Eastern Seaboard
New York is under two hours north. DC is under two hours south. Amtrak connects directly up and down the coast. For anyone with work or family ties across the region, the geography is hard to beat.

WHY POSEIDON

Why Choose Us for Your Philadelphia Move

Booking Poseidon Moving services couldn't have been easier and the attention given couldn't have been topped. Oleg was a great communicator and we got plenty of emailed information on what to expect moving day and how to best prepare for it. On moving day, communication with the moving crew was clear and concise. The moving team was careful with our belongings and efficient moving things out and into our new place. Couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Everything about using Poseidon was great! Professional and fast service, and everything arrived in perfect condition right on time. The price and delivery window for my cross country move was by far the most ideal.

Poseidon just moved my furniture from Boston to San Francisco, and they did an amazing job. They took great care packing my furniture with padding and blankets, and everything arrived in perfect condition. They stuck to their pick-up and delivery dates, and the upfront pricing was spot on—no surprise charges. The whole experience far exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!

They really have a very nice team. I have used their services not once but twice. First time within Massachusetts and Second time Massachusetts to New Jersey. They are a thouroughly professional team at affordable price. We can rely on them and they are flexible enough with our travel plans. I opted for full packing, they patiently listened and attended to each of household items with care. I can recommend them to any. They ease your tensions and get things done one time. I am always grateful to this team
