Washington, DC Cross Country Moving Options

Expedited

If timing is your top priority, expedited service can reduce uncertainty by reserving an exclusive truck and crew for your shipment. This option is designed for time-sensitive relocations where you want a faster route and fewer variables.

● Exclusive truck and dedicated crew (your shipment only)
- ● Priority scheduling and direct routing (no additional pickups)
- ● Tighter delivery window (or a scheduled delivery date, when available)
- ● Best for full-home relocations or deadline-driven moves

- ● You’re moving an apartment, partial home, or smaller shipment
- ● You still want professional handling and tracking at key milestones
