Getting around for pickups

I-95, I-83 and the Baltimore Beltway (I-695) carry most car traffic. The Maryland Transit Administration runs Light RailLink, Metro SubwayLink, buses and MARC commuter trains, though most residents still drive for larger pickups.

Local buying and selling tips

• Rowhouses often have narrow staircases and doorways, so measure furniture carefully before buying.
• Summer humidity can warp wood and cause mildew in basements, so inspect stored items.
• Student move-outs at Johns Hopkins, Loyola and other schools in May create furniture surpluses.
• Double-parking to load is common on narrow one-way rowhouse blocks but risky, so bring a helper who can stay with the car.

FAQ

What kind of furniture fits rowhouses best?

Apartment-size sofas, sectionals that separate and narrow dressers sell quickly because they fit through older doorways. Listings that include measurements tend to get faster replies.

How does the Hampden holiday display affect pickups?

The Miracle on 34th Street lights draw heavy evening traffic in December, so daytime pickups in that part of Hampden are far easier.

Is parking difficult in rowhouse neighborhoods?

Street parking can be tight, especially in Fells Point, Federal Hill and Canton, so plan for limited space.
