Local moves are charged based on an hourly rate as well as travel time. The only charge beside the hourly rate is for packing materials. Usually we box TVs, large picture and any fragile items. Unlike most companies, we do not charge extra for weekends, holidays or stairs, unless you have extremely large and heavy item(s) such as a piano or a huge projection TV.

The Hourly Rate depends on the number of movers and trucks required. We use a three-man crew for basic moves, but recommend at least a four-man crew when moving to or from a third, fourth, or fifth walkup. Work time starts when the crew arrives at your pick-up location. Work time stops when the goods are unloaded at the drop-off location and the crew is ready to leave.

Travel Time is added to work time and is applied to compensate for the time it takes the crew to come to your pick-up location and then to return after the move is done. For local job travel time ranges from a half hour to an hour, no matter where the pick-up and drop-off locations are, as long as they are in the Local Zone. Local Zone covers all of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and most of Staten Island and the Bronx.

Packing Materials are provided at an additional cost. We can supply boxes, assorted tape, packing paper, and bubble wrap. We get our supplies at the best deals, so you never have to worry about price-gouging. We will deliver supplies at no additional charge . Our optional packing services are available to make things more convenient for you. And even if you don't request our packing services, we always come equipped with at least 50 boxes, just in case you need something at the last minute.

Standard Insurance that covers your belongings at $0.30 per pound per article is automatically included at no extra charge. This is a policy from the Department of Transportation and applies to every local move. Additional coverage is available at your request, A certificate of insurance is also available if the building owner requests it.
