Planning tips

Planning a move in Washington

A few things to sort out early when you're moving in or out of Washington.

  1. 01

    Reserve the elevator and dock

    Many DC apartment and condo buildings require a reserved elevator and loading dock time, and some only allow moves on weekdays. Confirm the rules for both buildings before you set a date.

  2. 02

    Avoid Beltway rush hours

    Traffic on the Capital Beltway, I-95, I-66 and I-395 is heavy on weekday mornings and evenings. A midday start helps moves between the city and the suburbs.

  3. 03

    Check for events near the Mall

    Parades, marches and July 4 celebrations close streets around the National Mall and downtown. If you live nearby, check for road closures before choosing a date.
