Movers in New York City
The smaller living styles, access restrictions, building regulations and limited spaces in New York City make moving furniture and personal items difficult. Thus, you’ll need to hire experts to tackle these challenges professionally. Experienced movers will move your office essentials to a new space and transport a single bulky piece of home furniture in neighborhoods like Williamsburg, the Upper East Side or Chelsea.
We are a full-service New York City company A Plus Moving that does everything pertaining to a move, including providing packing supplies and acquiring the necessary permits. Below is our process:
- Planning and Moving Team Allocation: We design a custom plan and assign you a moving crew to handle the tasks involved in the move, such as packing and loading.
- Items Wrapping: Our local moving experts wrap your items in packing papers or bubble wrap and pack them into boxes for protection during the move.
- Labeling and Loading: We label each packed box on the moving day to ensure a smooth unpacking and load the items in our vehicles using ramps and other loading equipment.
- Transportation and Unloading: We transport your belongings from the current location to the new area and unload them after arriving.
- Reassembly and Arrangement: Our furniture movers attach and arrange any disassembled item and help set up electronics like flat-screen TVs, or other bulky appliances.
