COIs and building requirements
Almost every NoMa tower requires a certificate of insurance naming the property and management before you can move, and the front desk checks it against their file. We prepare the COI the moment you book, matched to each building's exact wording, so there's no holdup on the day. Getting this right ahead of time is the difference between rolling straight in and standing in the lobby while someone tracks down a manager.
Freight elevators and loading docks
Moves in these buildings run through a reserved freight elevator and a scheduled loading-dock window, and the slots book up, especially around the first of the month. We lock your elevator and dock time with the building early, pad the freight car, and plan the load to finish inside the reserved window. Working to the clock keeps you from colliding with another tenant's move on a busy day.
Union Station traffic and tight streets
NoMa sits right on top of Union Station and the rail yards, so the streets around First and M and along Florida Avenue carry heavy traffic and commuter foot flow. Curb space is metered and scarce. We route the truck to the building's loading dock where we can and time arrivals to miss the worst of the Union Station rush, keeping the move off the busiest corners.
The Met Branch Trail and new-resident moves
A lot of NoMa residents are new to the neighborhood, drawn by the Metro, the Metropolitan Branch Trail, and the quick hop to downtown. Many of our moves here are people arriving from out of town or upgrading from a smaller place. A dedicated coordinator handles the building back-and-forth, and if you land before your lease starts, our climate-controlled Ashburn storage holds everything until move-in day.

Frequently asked questions
Does my NoMa building require a COI to move in?
Almost always. NoMa's apartment and condo towers require a certificate of insurance naming the property and management before move day, and the front desk verifies it. We prepare the COI to each building's exact wording as soon as you book, so you're cleared for the freight elevator on move day.
How do freight elevator and dock reservations work in NoMa?
The building assigns a freight elevator and a loading-dock window, and slots fill fast around the first of the month. We reserve your elevator and dock time early, pad the freight car, and plan the load to finish inside the window so you don't overlap with another tenant's reservation.
Is there parking for a moving truck near Union Station?
Street parking around First, M, and Florida Avenue is metered and scarce with heavy Union Station traffic. We route the truck to the building's loading dock wherever possible and reserve that window. Where a building sends moves to the curb, we help arrange DDOT no-parking signs to hold the space.
Can you store my things before my NoMa lease starts?
Yes. If you arrive before your move-in date, our climate-controlled storage in Ashburn holds everything as long as you need. Once your building clears the COI and elevator reservation, we deliver and move you in on schedule, without a rush.
Do you handle moves from out of town into NoMa?
We do. Many NoMa residents are arriving from elsewhere, so we handle both the long-distance haul and the building logistics on this end. A dedicated coordinator lines up the COI, freight elevator, and dock window so your first day in the District goes smoothly.
