FAQ
Find answers to your moving and storage questions in our FAQs, covering everything from packing to transportation logistics
-
The average cost of movers in NYC is approximately $1,400, with specific prices varying based on the size of the home and the distance of the move. A small studio move within boroughs can start at $420, while a large home move can reach up to $3,500 or more.
-
The most affordable way to move in NYC involves decluttering to reduce the volume of items moved and moving during off-peak times like mid-week or outside of the summer season to take advantage of lower rates.
-
The best day to hire movers is during the middle of the week, particularly from September to May, as moving companies are less busy during this time, potentially offering lower rates​.
-
Yes. We do offer a guaranteed pricing rate. Local moves are quoted either by the hour or a guaranteed pricing rate. We will calculate the price based on the specific list of items you need to be moved and any additional services you may require.
-
Yes, you can negotiate with a moving company. It’s advisable to discuss your budget and needs to see if there’s flexibility in pricing or if additional services can be included at a competitive rate.
-
Like any other service, it is customary to tip movers if you are satisfied with their performance. 18-22% is an appropriate gratuity. Movers are usually tipped in cash. Check our NYC moving tipping guide for more tips.
-
If you are moving in the off-peak season (October-April), scheduling a move a week or two in advance will usually be sufficient. But, if you are moving in the peak season (April – September), try to schedule your move three to four weeks in advance.
-
All of the furniture is wrapped with padded blankets before being moved. The teams come prepared with an array of supplies on the truck, boxes, packing paper, and bubble wrap. The crew members are all well-trained to ensure everything is properly prepared for transit.
Moving Tips & Advice
Moving to Manhattan is exciting, but it’s rarely simple. The borough has one of the most competitive housing markets in the United States. Apartments move fast, and listings can disappear within days.
If you’re planning a move to New York City, the Bronx is worth a closer look. It sits at the northern edge of the city and offers a mix of busy streets
With Queens being the largest borough in New York City, people who need more space have started moving into the neighborhood. See, the apartments here are often larger than units in Manhattan
