NY Movers - NYC Movers

We moved to Chicago from New York City. I called around trying to find the cheapest & Reliable Moving Company in NYC, already after my husband had done some calling himself and he had decided to use U-haul because it was just cheaper than the rest. He was going to be riding the bus back to NYC to help us move since he was already in Chicago working and probably wouldn't be getting much sleep to drive the Uhaul after the long bus ride (14hrs).

I ended up finding This New York Movers Company by word of mouth from my mom saying that a friend of hers used New York City Movers. I decided to do a search on the internet and found all those positive reviews about this company. I called them to find out more about the pricing. I later called back with more questions regarding other things that I've read in your reviews (Thank you!). New York City Movers was by far the cheapest & Reliable compared to Uhaul including the gas, insurance, etc... And the rest of the companies that I had contacted, Penske, Budget and so forth.

When I called them, here are some questions that I asked and wanted included in or on my truck:

1. Will my truck be cleaned out, no pallets etc on?
**His answer** (Mike}: They almost always clean it out. There might be some dust or a little dirt.
(I had planned on sweeping the inside out and then putting down a tarp on the floor of the truck to protect my furniture or anything else that wasn't packed in a box.)

2. I want a truck that has latches or hooks of some sort to tie off my stuff.
**His answer**: All the new trucks have tie off latches and all of the old trailers have the boards that you can just nail into and tie off, off of that.
(I told him that I would like a newer truck then so I wouldn't have a hassle. He said that would be fine)

3. What kind of gate is the 'bulkhead wall' and is it secure enough to hold not be pushed? Also, Do I need to make sure that I have the lower and upper bulkhead locks?
**His answer: It's a plywood board that is extended from both sides of the truck and load bars kind of like a jack. He said you don't need the bulkhead lock upper and lower anymore. These are newer and easier to use.
(I accepted that. In fact, they are easy to use and work just great. At the end after having the truck loaded, there were some cleaning supplies from cleaning our apartment that I wanted to stick inside the truck. We ended up tying a rope and putting the cleaning supplies inside a kitchen garbage can and attaching the rope to both sides of the garbage can and slowly slid it down on the other side of the bulkhead wall.)


4. How do I lock the bulkhead wall or will I have problems doing it?
**His answer: He said there are very basic directions on the wall itself and if I wanted I could have the driver show us how. **
(I found it very easy to follow and it was not a problem. The driver even checks it when they pick it up to make everything is stable.)

I can not ask for more – Reliable – Professional & great Prices –

That ‘all I wanted it –
The Best Part is that I end up spending more time with my husband in New York City,
Got a good dinner & few drinks.

When my husband and I planned our move from LA to New York City, I quickly became overwhelmed by the details involved, not to mention all the moving companies and options available. We chose New York Movers based on price – Reliable & Professional Services.

When I tried to make the reservation online, a message came up that said they couldn't do the move. After calling and talking to the New York Movers in LA, our move was reserved and our plan set. The confirmation was sent on email and very easy to decipher, nothing weird or unusual. They estimated the need for 16 feet Truck, but were allowed to pack less, but we would be required to pay for at least seven feet. Two days before the move, I called to confirm. The New York Movers in LA said they would come anytime after 8 am to pick up our belongings.
They arrived at 8:45 on our moving day with a bigger truck and it couldn't have been easier. Everything was simple and smooth.

They packed our stuff up and covered it with tarps and then installed the bulkhead. We didn't use anything to secure the load other than a little tape (which we really didn't think would hold anything; it just made us feel better).

We ended up using 12 feet of space and paid only $1567.00. Our things arrived over the July 4th weekend. Therefore, we weren't able to get our things for several days, but we knew this would be the case.

We called to pick up our things, but the cargo behind it was not off yet, so we had to wait another day.

The next day we went they arrive about 10 Am. Our stuff was in perfect condition. There was some dirt/dust over some of our stuff that we hadn't been able to get under the tarp. We also had wrapped all of our furniture in plastic & moving blankets.

I would suggest buying high quality boxes. We moved a lot of heavy boxes of books. We bought special double walled boxes from Staple. Some of the boxes we had used in a previous move and they still held up. None of these boxes crushed at all. Our other boxes got crushed before they even got out of our apartment. It's definitely worth a little more for high quality boxes.

New York Movers was a great choice for what we needed. We didn't have too much stuff...lots of boxes and IKEA furniture broken down. Also, we weren't going to drive the Uhaul across the country with the truck alone costing $2000, plus gas.

Today, yes my Husband & I are thankful to New York Movers, We are here in Hawaii, { Honeymoon } Enjoying the beautiful weather & I am taking a few minutes of my vacation to thank this Wonderful Company – They made it easy for us – We saved a lot of money { by the way we used part of it to our Honeymoon } .
