About Philadelphia

Philadelphia, the largest city in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, is one of the oldest municipalities in the U.S. Known for its pivotal role in the American Revolution, it’s where the Declaration of Independence was signed and briefly served as the nation’s capital. Today, Greater Philadelphia is a major hub for higher education, home to dozens of universities and colleges.

The Schuylkill River runs through the city, lined by the iconic Boathouse Row—home to historic rowing clubs. Gentle Giant, founded by college rowers in 1980, proudly recruits many of our movers from local rowing programs. Just upriver, you'll find the Philadelphia Museum of Art and its famous Rocky Steps, all nestled within expansive Fairmount and Wissahickon Valley Parks, the largest urban park system in the country.

We also have options for electronic inventories that include itemized photographs of each of your items.

Packing and Moving Boxes

Moving can be stressful, so leave the hard work to us! We’ll come the day before your move and pack everything for you. When you hire Gentle Giant to pack your valuable belongings there is the added guarantee that your items will arrive safe and sound at the other end. We take the necessary care and precision required to pack everything from crystal stemware to your baseball card collection like they were our own. If you want to pack yourself, though, we offer free delivery of moving boxes to your home too!
