Packing and storage go with all of it. Paul supplies the materials, boxes, paper, tape, and the crew packs the place out, as much or as little of it as you want. Furniture that has to come apart comes apart, and it goes back together at the other end. And if your dates do not line up, or the new place is not ready for you, your things can go into storage and come out when you are.
If We Take It Apart, We Put It Back Together
What has to come apart to get out of your door comes apart, and the same crew puts it back together at the other end.
A bed frame does not come down a New York staircase in one piece. Neither does a sectional, an oversized table, or a wardrobe with the doors still on. So those pieces come apart, and that is normal: it is how they leave the building without being forced through a frame they were never going to fit. What we take apart, we put back together. You are not left working out where the bolts went.
Almost nothing gets broken by being dropped. Furniture breaks because it was forced through a doorway a quarter inch too narrow instead of being taken apart. Because it went onto the truck unwrapped and rubbed against something for the whole ride. Because it was dragged across a floor rather than lifted, or stacked so the weight of a dresser sat on it for an hour. Most of the damage in a move is decided before the truck has moved at all.
So the wrapping happens where the piece is standing, not at the tailgate. Pads and blankets go on the furniture, the floors and the doorframes get covered, and anything that will not make the turn comes apart instead of being fought through it. That is slower in the apartment and faster everywhere after it.
One more thing worth knowing before you book anybody, us included. The liability a moving company carries by default is worked out from the weight of an item, not from what the item is worth, which is how a shattered heirloom turns into a payout that would not replace the box it came in. Ask any mover what their coverage actually pays before you hand over your things. It is a fair question and it has a straight answer.
The furniture
Arms and legs snap when a piece is forced through a doorway instead of taken apart. What comes apart is worked out before the day, not discovered in a doorway at eleven in the morning.
The floors and the doorframes
Dragging is what wrecks an old floor, and a doorframe is what a sofa arm catches on the way out. Both get covered before anything is carried across them.
The building, which is not yours
A gouged lobby wall or a scratched elevator panel lands on you and on your lease. It is the reason your building wants a certificate of insurance from the mover before a crew is allowed upstairs, and we furnish one.
We Show Up When We Said We Would
You get an arrival time when you book it, a call the day before to confirm it, and another call when the crew is on the way to you.
The day before your move, Paul calls you to confirm. If you are moving on a Saturday, that call comes Friday afternoon. You agreed an arrival time when you booked, eight in the morning, nine, whatever the day needed, and that call is where it gets said out loud again rather than assumed by both of you.
On the day, you get a second call about half an hour before the crew reaches you, so you are not sitting at a window from seven in the morning wondering whether anybody is coming. And the move happens on the day it was booked for. If we said Saturday, we come Saturday.
An arrival time is only worth anything because the day was worked out before the day. Before we quote, we know what floor you are on at both ends, whether there is an elevator and when your building gave you the window, what has to come apart to get out of the door, and where a truck can legally stand. The quote and the plan for the day are the same piece of work, which is why we ask for all of it up front rather than finding it out in your living room.
The crew is settled in the same conversation. How many hands a job needs comes out of what is actually in the place: usually three movers with Paul, four in all, and more on a bigger place. It is worked out while we are still working the job out, not on the morning of the move.
In New York there is usually a hard stop on top of it. If your building gave you a service elevator window, that window closes whether the truck is empty or not, and there is rarely another one that afternoon. A day that starts late here does not simply end late. It ends unfinished, with half of your apartment still in it. So we work to the window you were given, and we need to know it early.
And you are not calling a dispatcher for an arrival time. You are calling Paul. He booked the job, and he will be there with the crew.
You Call, Paul Answers
There is no receptionist to get past, and no ticket to chase.
You call, Paul picks up. He quotes your move, schedules it, and he is on the job on the day, with his crew. Same person, from the first call to the last box on the truck.
There is no receptionist, no dispatcher, and no call center reading from a script. When you call, Paul is who answers, and he can actually answer the question, because he booked the job and he will be standing in your apartment while the crew works.
It is also the only way the promise below can hold. A price that holds on move day has to come from the person who is standing there on move day.
The Price We Quote Is the Price You Pay
Nobody can price a move from a website, so we look first. Send photos, send a video, or have us come look, and what comes back is built out of your apartment: how much there is, what floor it is on, whether there is an elevator, what has to come apart, and where the truck can stand.
So if something about your move drives the price, a fifth-floor walk-up, a long carry, a piano, you hear it before you book. Not on the day. Paul runs this company on two rules he will tell you himself: be loyal to the customer, and do not be greedy. You are quoted once, and that is what you pay.
The two rules Paul runs on
- Be loyal to the customer.
- Do not be greedy.
Paul's words, not ours. Almost all of the work comes from referrals, which is what happens when the quote holds.
- 1
Show us what you have.
Send photos or a short video walking through your place, and tell us where it is going. That is usually all it takes. If you would rather we come look in person, we will come look in person.
- 2
Get your quote.
We tell you what it costs and what it includes. If something about your move is going to drive the price up, like a fifth-floor walk-up or a piano, we say so now, not on moving day.
- 3
We show up and move you.
On the day the crew arrives, Paul is with them, and your things get wrapped properly and taken where they are going.
Need a Place Cleared Out, Not Moved?
Selling an apartment, settling an estate, emptying an office. We take the whole thing: furniture, appliances, and everything nobody wants to deal with. We bring the dumpster and we leave the place empty.
Where We Work
Local moves and cleanouts across all five boroughs and New Jersey, and long distance moves out of New York.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you give an estimate?
Send us photos or a video of what needs to move, plus the address you are moving to. That is usually enough for a solid quote. We can also come out and look in person.
Do you do long distance moves?
Yes, including out of state.
On a long distance move, do my things share a truck with other people's?
No. Your household goes on our own truck, per move, and it is your things on it rather than a trailer filled out with other people's loads heading the same way. The crew that loads it is the crew that unloads it at the other end.
Do you pack, and do you supply the boxes?
Yes to both. Paul supplies the materials, boxes, paper, and tape, and the crew packs the place out, as much or as little of it as you want. Furniture comes apart and goes back together at the other end. It is quoted with the rest of the job.
Do you offer storage?
Yes. If your dates do not line up, or the new place is not ready for you, your things can go into storage and come out when you are ready for them. Tell us when you call so it is in the quote from the start.
How do I pay?
Zelle, check, or cash. We do not take credit cards.
Do you handle apartments and walk-ups?
Yes. Most of our work is residential, including apartment moves with stairs and elevators.
What is a cleanout?
When a place needs to be emptied rather than moved. We clear out furniture, appliances, and junk, bring a dumpster, and leave the space empty. Homes, offices, and estates.
Will the price change on moving day?
No. That is the entire point of how this company is run. We quote honestly up front and tell you about anything that affects the price before you book.
Are you insured?
Yes.
Why do moving quotes change on moving day?
Almost always because the quote was made without anyone actually seeing what is being moved. A price guessed from a room count over the phone has nothing holding it up, so it moves once the truck is loaded and you are in no position to argue. We quote from photos, a video, or an in-person walkthrough, and if anything about the job affects the price, you hear it before you book.
How much does it cost to move in NYC?
The price is built from volume, access, and distance. How much there is, how many flights it has to come down, whether there is an elevator, how far the carry is from the door to where a truck can legally stand, and how far it is going. Heavy items like a piano or a safe sit on top of that. Send photos or a short video and you are quoted before the day.
When is the cheapest time to move in NYC?
Mid-month, midweek, and out of season. Summer is peak, and the first and the fifteenth are lease-turnover days when the whole city is moving at once. A Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday in the middle of the month costs less than a Saturday at the start of it, for the same work. If your dates have any give in them, that is worth real money.
Do you move walk-ups and buildings with stairs?
Yes. A lot of residential moving in this city is walk-ups. Stairs and a long carry are real work and they belong in the quote, so send photos and tell us what floor you are on. It gets priced before the day instead of added on it.
How does a piano, a safe, or another heavy item affect the price?
Tell us up front and send a photo. Heavy and awkward items take more hands and more time, and that goes into the estimate from the start rather than turning into a fee on the day.
