Shleppers has been serving the NYC area for more than 45 years and it shows!

"This is the worst moving experience I've ever had in 25 years of moving. They arrived 2 hours late after confirming the night before, came with a wrong size small van, mislabeled boxes and LIED about the location of the move with good damaged in the process! They refused to provide any compensation! Please use any other moving company as this one will cause you serious problems!"

Teddy Moving Team is established by Industry veterans who have combined 10+ years of moving experience, wanting to change the 'status quo', by putting clients' satisfaction on a pedestal. Owners believe that promised value to clients by companies in the moving industry does not correspond with the service provided and the lack of transparency in the industry was something that had to be changed - which is why Teddy Moving Team is looking forward to providing all of our clients with a 5 star moving experience!

"Movers were excellent. Office team was communicative."

Roadway Moving is Angi’s Certified for one reason: we do everything possible to deliver the best customer experience in the moving industry. That means no surprises on price. Always on time (OK, 99.4% on time.) Clear communication before, during, and after your move. We only use Roadway movers, trucks, equipment, and employees. We do NOT use carriers or third parties. Roadway’s other services include packing, unpacking, full-service storage, and commercial moving. And of course, we offer contactless moving and the latest COVID safety protocols. We service the East Coast and West Coast areas with headquarters in NYC, Philly, Miami, and LA. So, whether you’re moving across town or across the country, moving your home or business, Roadway is a nicer way to move. It’s no wonder we receive Angi’s Super Service Award annually.

"Moving is so stressful! So I’m so happy that I had RoadWay moving to help with my move from New Jersey to San Diego. They packed everything in my home in a matter of hours and before I knew it everything was ready to go across country to San Diego. Eventually my belongings arrived and Roadway took care to reassemble my furniture pieces and place them in the appropriate rooms. I loved how easy and stress free RoadWay made my moving process."

New York City Moving at Brooklyn Prices. We offer guaranteed price moving quotes and free wardrobe boxes with your local move. Business opened in 2006 in our office in Dumbo, Brooklyn.

"Their price was the best and I was skeptical after reading other reviews where people said they increased the price upon arrival. I inquired about this and my sales rep said this is usually for additional items not included in the quote, which makes sense. As I was packing I called Aaron to add things so there were no surprises at the cost of my move. The guys showed up on time and drove my furniture to my elderly parents' house in Delaware, where they kindly set up the bed at no extra charge. Aaron was wonderful and responsive the whole time. Will definitely be using them again and highly recommend."

FAQs for moving projects in Long Island City, NY

Before hiring a moving company to help you with your move, there are a few things you will want to ask, including: 

  • Is there anything your company won’t move? 

  • Does workers’ compensation cover the crew?

  • Will you disassemble and reassemble the furniture? 

  • Are there packing restrictions?

  • Can you guarantee my delivery date?

  • Can you provide references? 

  • What do you charge extra for?

  • What is your cancellation policy?

Moving insurance helps protect your belongings from damage or loss during the moving process. This policy can help reimburse you either part of or the total amount of your belongings that become damaged during the moving process. Moving insurance has three main options: full value protection, released value protection, and third-party or separate liability coverage. Speak with your moving company to determine what is covered under each policy and their cost to determine the best fit for your needs. 

The average cost to hire movers is between $920 and $2,530 for local moves and $2,700 to $10,000 for long-distance moves. The number of movers you need, the total mileage you’re moving, your moving date, and ease of access to your home all factor into the bottom line. 

For example, if you only need one or two movers, you can expect to pay $25 to $50 an hour. However, if you need four or more movers, that charge increases to $100 to $200 an hour. Moving specialty items, like a piano or large aquarium, will incur additional charges.

In the world of professional moving, moves are broken up into two categories—a local move and a long-distance move. A local move is anything considered under 100 miles, regardless if you’re crossing over state lines. A long-distance move is anything over 100 miles, even if you stay in the same state or location.

If you’re hiring movers to help with your move, there are a few things that you can do ahead of time to set yourself (and the moving company) up for success.

  • Donate or sell items ahead of time to lessen the amount to move

  • Alert your neighbors (or apartment management) of the move so they can plan for the moving truck to arrive

  • Pack your belongings securely ahead of your moving date

  • Disconnect any appliances prior to the moving date

  • Clear a path for the movers to move freely inside your home 

  • Dispose of hazardous materials

  • Discuss with your moving coordinator where to unload the boxes
