You know the moment. The sofa is wedged in the stairwell at a 45-degree angle, someone is yelling "pivot," and the banister is already scuffed. DC rowhouses, Arlington walk-ups, Bethesda colonials — none of them were built with your king bed frame in mind. Doorways run narrow, stair turns run tight, and one wrong angle costs you a drywall patch or a torn armrest.
GeoStars movers measure first and lift second. We size up the piece and the path — door width, stair landings, elevator dimensions — then take apart what should come apart, wrap every surface in moving pads, and lay down floor protection before a single leg leaves the ground. Sofas, beds, wardrobes, dressers, dining tables, that marble-top console you're nervous about: we move single items, single rooms, or the entire house.
And the price is not a mystery. You get a free itemized quote within one business hour, no deposit, no hidden fees. The estimate you approve is the price you pay — whether we're moving one armoire across Alexandria or four bedrooms across the DMV.
No add-on charges for the gear that actually keeps your furniture whole — every GeoStars crew brings all of it, on every package from Basic to Premium.
Bed frames, wardrobe sections, table legs, sectional pieces — we take them apart at pickup, bag and label every bolt, and rebuild it all at the destination.
Thick moving blankets and stretch wrap on every piece, with corner protection on wood edges so nothing arrives with a fresh dent.
Runners on hardwood, ram board where it matters, and door-jamb padding — your old place and your new place both stay deposit-safe.
Crews trained on shoulder carries, stairwell pivots, and hoisting straps for the walk-ups and split-levels the DMV is full of.
Four-wheel dollies for dressers, appliance straps for armoires — the right tool for each piece, not brute force.
Careful truck loading with tie-down points and weight distribution, so your wardrobe doesn't lean on your glass-front cabinet at the first stoplight.
GeoStars is licensed, insured, and bonded — your furniture is covered from the first lift to the last leg screwed back on.
One sofa from a Craigslist pickup, one piano-black credenza across town — no minimum drama, same careful crew.
Call +1 (202) 517-4971 or send the list — "3-seat sofa, queen bed, two wardrobes, third-floor walk-up." Photos help but aren't required. We'll flag anything tricky, like a spiral staircase or a freight-elevator reservation, before moving day.
Within one business hour you get a free, itemized quote: crew size, hourly rate, everything included. Two movers at $140/hr, three at $170/hr, or four at $210/hr for the heavy days. No deposit. The number you approve is the number you pay.
The crew arrives, pads the doorways, lays floor runners, and wraps each piece — sofa in blankets, mattress in a cover, mirror off the dresser and boxed. Beds and tables come apart, hardware goes in labeled bags taped to the piece it belongs to.
At the new place, every piece goes to the room you point to — not a pile in the garage. Beds reassembled, table legs back on, wardrobe doors aligned. You do a walkthrough before we leave, so nothing gets discovered a week later.
Call +1 (202) 517-4971 — we answer every day, 24/7. Free itemized quote within one business hour, no deposit, and the price you approve is the price you pay.
