Best Drexel Hill, PA Moving Company
Drexel Hill is the largest community in Upper Darby Township, just past the Philadelphia city line in Delaware County. It is a neighborhood town with trolley stops, corner shops, and blocks of older homes, only a short ride from 69th Street and the city. Our Tri-State crew moves families and renters in and out of Drexel Hill often as part of our Tri-State moving service.
Many Drexel Hill homes are brick and stone twins, rowhomes, and single houses built in the early and middle 1900s. Neighborhoods like Aronimink and Drexel Park have tree-lined streets and houses set close together. That means steep front steps, narrow stairways, and small landings on moving day. We pad railings and door frames, take apart beds and tables when needed, and tell you before we start if a big piece will not make it up or down the stairs. Basements in these older homes often have low ceilings and tight turns too, so we plan how to bring out washers, freezers, and workout gear before we start carrying.
Parking and traffic take some planning here. Many blocks have street parking on both sides, and main roads like State Road, Garrett Road, and Township Line Road get busy. The trolley lines to Media and Sharon Hill run right through town, so we pick a loading spot that keeps the truck clear of the tracks and traffic. Let us know your address and we will look at your block before moving day. If we need to ask a neighbor to move a car, we will let you know early.
Drexel Hill also has a lot of renters. The large Drexelbrook apartment community and smaller buildings around town can have set move hours and elevator or stair access rules, and we work with your building office so the day goes smoothly. Short on time? Our packing and unpacking service can box up the whole place or just the kitchen and breakables. We can also move just a few heavy pieces if you are doing the rest yourself.
We also move families across Delaware County and into the city, including Havertown and Philadelphia. A & M Friendly Movers is family-owned since 2015, and we treat every Drexel Hill move like we are moving our own neighbors. 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.

“I used A&M Friendly Movers in 2022. They were prompt, friendly and efficient. I was having a family crisis and was visibly upset, they were compassionate and continued unloading and listening to my friend who was helping. They understood and gave me well wishes. They took a small break and we made small talk. It was a very hot day and i was concerned for them over heating. Very professional and excellent packers! Nothing was broken or damaged. I would use them again and will recommend them to anyone”

Moving in Drexel Hill: Local Tips From Our Crew
Parking, trash pickup, traffic and building rules can make or break moving day in Drexel Hill. Here’s what we plan around.
Get U&O before settlement
Upper Darby requires a Use & Occupancy permit for all property transfers; apply at least 14 business days before settlement, and four weeks ahead is strongly recommended.
Bag meters for trucks
To block off Upper Darby parking meters, bring the meter numbers and your approved L&I permit to the Parking office, which provides No Parking signs.
Permit street storage pods
Portable storage containers and dumpsters on a public street require a Dumpster Permit from Licenses & Inspections.
No move-out cleanouts
Upper Darby’s bulk service will not take residential cleanouts related to a property sale or the end of a rental lease.
Seal mattresses in plastic
A mattress and box spring can go out with regular trash only if both are wrapped and completely sealed in plastic, and trash must be out before 7 a.m.
