A Village Shaped by the Canal
Wurtsboro's history is tied to the Delaware & Hudson Canal, which the Wurts brothers began building in 1825 to carry Pennsylvania coal to the Hudson River and on to New York City. The canal ran through the Mamakating valley, and a state historic marker in the village explains that Wurtsboro is named in honor of Maurice Wurts of the canal company, who had a mercantile business here.
Wurtsboro is also home to a glider airport that has been operating since 1927 and is often described as the oldest soaring site in the country.

Village Streets and Hillside Homes
A Wurtsboro move might be a house on a village street or a home tucked into the hills on a steep, narrow road. We check access ahead of time and bring the right truck so move day doesn't stall at the bottom of the driveway.
With Route 17 running right through town, Wurtsboro is also easy for us to reach, whether you're moving across the village or out to Middletown, Monticello, or Pine Bush.
