Best Gettysburg, PA Moving Company

Gettysburg is the Adams County seat, a small borough built around Lincoln Square where York, Chambersburg, Baltimore and Carlisle Streets meet. Our York moving team moves families, college staff, renters and retirees in and out of Gettysburg all year. We know that a move here means old buildings, busy streets and a lot of visitors. Whether you are moving across town, across Adams County or out of state, we give you a clear plan and a crew that shows up on time.

Many homes near the square are brick rowhomes and older twins from the 1800s. They often have steep, narrow stairs, low doorways and small back yards. We pad railings and door frames, take apart beds and big pieces when we need to, and plan how each item will come out before we lift it. If a sofa or dresser will not make the turn at the top of the stairs, we tell you before we start, not halfway through the day. Downtown parking is mostly metered spaces and residential permit zones, so we look at your block ahead of time and plan where the truck can safely stop.

Gettysburg is also a college town. Gettysburg College sits on the north side along Carlisle Street, and more than half of the homes in the borough are rented. That means a lot of apartment and small-house moves at the start and end of each semester. We handle one-room moves, furniture-only jobs and full house moves, and we can store your things if your lease and your new start date do not line up. Faculty and staff moving to town for a new job can count on us to have beds set up the first night.

Timing matters here. Tour buses and visitors fill Steinwehr Avenue, Baltimore Street and the square from spring through fall, and the battle anniversary in early July brings big crowds. Routes 30, 15, 34, 97 and 116 all lead into town, and Remembrance Day in November brings another big weekend. We plan start times to avoid the busiest hours when we can, and we keep the truck off the main tour routes whenever the job allows. Short on time to pack? Our packing and unpacking service can box up the whole house or just the kitchen and fragile items.

We also move families in nearby Littlestown, Fayetteville and New Oxford. A & M Friendly Movers is family-owned since 2019, and we treat every Gettysburg move like we are moving our own family. Our mission is simple: quality, professional service at a fair price. Home is where the heart is, and moving is where it starts. Call 717-844-5125 for a free quote.
