TRI-STATE COLLEGE MOVERS
College & Dorm Moving in the Philadelphia Tri-State
Move-in, move-out and summer storage help for students and parents around West Chester, Newark and Philadelphia’s campuses.
The Tri-State is packed with college towns. West Chester University sits right in the borough, the University of Delaware fills Newark every fall, and Philadelphia and the Main Line are home to many more campuses. A & M Friendly Movers helps students and parents with dorm move-ins, move-outs, off-campus apartments and the summer in between, working from our Downingtown office across Chester, Delaware and Montgomery Counties, Philadelphia and northern Delaware.
Our crews are background-checked, drug-tested W-2 employees, so you know who is carrying your student’s things up the stairs. We move mini-fridges, desks, TVs and boxes, take apart and rebuild furniture, and haul the couch from a West Chester or Newark rental to a new apartment across town. Local moves are priced hourly by crew size, and there is never a fee to reschedule.
Move-in and move-out weekends book up fast, so call early. Read more about our college and dorm moving services, see all of our services across the Philadelphia Tri-State, or call an owner at 410-499-8777.
Why Tri-State Students and Parents Choose A & M
Movers Parents Can Trust
Every mover on our crew is a background-checked, drug-tested W-2 employee of A & M Friendly Movers. We never send day laborers or subcontractors. When your student is moving into a dorm or an off-campus house for the first time, that is one less thing to worry about.
Off-Campus Rentals Too
Plenty of students move from the dorms into older rentals around West Chester borough or Newark, many with narrow stairs, tight doorways and limited parking. We plan around those spots, take furniture apart when it will not make the turn and put it back together in the new room.
Summer Storage Made Easy
Heading home for the summer or studying abroad? We pick up your student’s things at the end of the semester, keep them in our secure storage and bring them back when the fall lease starts. No renting a truck and no driving a car full of boxes down I-95.
Built for Busy Weekends
Move-in and move-out weekends around campus are crowded, with long elevator lines and packed lots. We schedule early, follow the school’s posted times and rules, and move quickly so your student is settled in the room and you are back on US-202, I-95 or the Turnpike well before dark.
No Reschedule Fees
Housing assignments change, leases start late and finals schedules shift. If your plans move, so does your booking, with no rescheduling fee, ever, for any reason. Just call as soon as you know, and we will find a new day that works for your student and your family.
Easy to Book and Pay
An owner or our office calls you back within 15 minutes, 8am to 8pm. A $100 deposit holds your date and is applied to the move. Parents can pay by credit or debit card, personal check or certified check. We do not accept cash, which keeps things simple for everyone.
Our College & Dorm Moving Services in the Tri-State
Dorm Move-In and Move-Out
We load your student's belongings at home, bring them to campus and carry everything up to the room. At the end of the year we pack it back up and bring it home, or straight into storage if you prefer.
Off-Campus Apartment Moves
Moving from a dorm into a rental house in West Chester or an apartment in Newark or Philadelphia? We move beds, couches, desks and boxes, and handle the tight stairs that come with many older student rentals.
Summer and Semester Storage
We pick up at the end of the semester, hold everything in our secure storage for the summer or a semester away, and deliver it to the new dorm or apartment when the next term starts.
Furniture Assembly and Setup
Lofted beds, desks and dressers from home or online orders often arrive in pieces or will not fit through a dorm door. Our crew takes things apart, moves them in and reassembles them so the room is ready to live in.

Local moves are priced hourly by crew size, so smaller dorm moves with a two-person crew usually cost less than a full house move. Call 410-499-8777 or request a quote online, and an owner or our office calls you back within 15 minutes, 8am to 8pm, with a clear estimate.
