Serving the D.C. Metro Area with the "World's Finest" Local Moving Service
What is your local move pricing based on?
Just to give you a heads up on our pricing, it's very simple:
Item Includes
(1) Flat Rate Truck, Travel, and Equipment Fee Appropriate sized - truck equipped with a GPS, appliance dolly, four
wheel dolly, tools for assembly/ dis-assembly, and moving blankets.
(2) Hourly Rate The appropriate # of Marines for your mission. Our time doesn't start
until we arrive at your current location, and we do not round up to the
next hour. There is a 1 hour minimum.
Are you really Marines?
Yes, Two Marines and a Truck is Marine owned and operated. We hire motivated active-duty, reservists, national guardsmen, and civilians to ensure your move is a smooth one. Our customers choose Two Marines and a Truck over the competition because of the quality of our workforce. Rather than having movers with a criminal record or lacking the ability to speak English, you get ethical/ hard-working vets. Approximately 70% of out staff are Marines, 15% are Army, 5% are Navy/ Air-Force, and 5% are civilian.
What happens if in case of inclement weather?
Our Marines operate in rain, snow, sleet, or shine. The only reason that we would not be able to complete your move, is if the snow/sleet has reach a point of accumulation that the trucks are inoperable.
What forms of payment do you accept?

How much should I tip my movers?
Tips are very much appreciated for exceptional service. Think of it like dining out, a typical crew is tipped an average of $20-$40 for the average job. Some of our most generous tippers really make a Marine's day by tipping even more in appreciation for their hard work/ military service.
Would it be less expensive to get my own truck?
The answer is usually, NO. Once you add in all of the cost associated with a truck rental, it saves you money and time by using one of our trucks.
