I’m Damon — Columbia Heights is two moves in one
Columbia Heights has two housing types stacked on top of each other. On the side streets east of 14th you’ve got original 1910s brick rowhomes. On 14th itself, around the DC USA shopping center and the Columbia Heights Metro, you’ve got mid-rise condo buildings with elevators and COI rules. We move both, often in the same week.
The hill is real — plan for it
This neighborhood sits high. 16th Street, 14th Street, and Mt. Pleasant Street all climb hard out of downtown. We park the truck pointed safely, chock the wheels when loaded, and use four-wheel dollies with brake straps on the carry.
Rowhome moves
- Stoop pads on the front steps
- Banister wrap on original woodwork
- DDOT temp No-Parking permit pulled by our office
- Extra mover on multi-floor rowhomes so the clock doesn’t run
Condo moves around the Metro
- COI sent direct to the building manager
- Freight elevator reserved for your window
- Lobby and elevator-cab padding
- Move scheduled around weekday rush on 14th Street
A lot of Columbia Heights moves head to Logan Circle or down to the Hill. If you’re upsizing to a freight-elevator building, our condo and high-rise crew takes the receiving end. Mercy Movers is licensed in DC with US DOT and MC authority on file — no broker handoff. Start your flat-rate quote.
