Movers in Rochester
Moving in Rochester may involve heavy lifting, packing and truck loading which are physically demanding tasks. The city is also no stranger to busy roads, combined with icy and heavy snowfall conditions, making it tough to navigate around. This is why hiring professionals for moving in New York is a good choice. They can navigate busy and icy roads, minimizing the risk of accidents and delays and managing the physical work involved in your move.
As a full-service moving company in Rochester, A Plus Moving protect your items, handle small and big office moves, relocate your special items and offer loading and unloading assistance. We also provide moving services in New York City, moving in Buffalo and other cities in the state of NJ.
We take care of the move in the following steps:
- Moving Day Packing: We come with boxes and bubble wrap to pack your items including antiques, artworks and heirlooms.
- Loading and Hauling: Using heavy lifting straps and ramps, we carefully load your items onto the truck and safely take them to your next destination.
- Unpacking and Reassembling Items: We unbox your items and put back together the detached furniture pieces including tables and beds.
- Post-Move Setup and Final Cleanup: Need help setting up your appliances such as TV and stove? We will tackle that and tidy up by removing packing materials for you to enjoy a fresh and ready to use space.
Cost of Moving Services in Rochester
The final cost varies based on the following elements:
- Time of the Relocation: If you relocate on a weekday or when the demand for moving is low (especially in January) you may pay 20% less.
- Your Load’s Size: Moving large and more items means you will need a bigger truck, more time and movers which will increase the cost of the move.
- Distance: A short move of less than 70 miles will incur fewer expenses, such as reduced fuel costs, leading to lower final moving rates.
The average costs are as follows:
- A Residential Move: $600 to $3000
- Commercial Moving: $1500 to $10000
- Local Moves (within the Rochester suburbs): $400 to $1500
- Long Distance Moving (from Rochester to Buffalo): $2000 to $7000+

About the Rochester
Rochester, sitting along the southern shore of Lake Ontario has a population of around 207,000 people. It’s noted as a lively city, serving as the cultural, economic and educational hub of Western New York.
One thing that stands out about Rochester is its strong sense of community. Neighborhood groups are active in keeping the city safe and welcoming with programs such as Neighbors Building Neighborhoods and partnerships between the police and the community.
Winter sports lovers can enjoy Rochester’s cold and snowy winters. On the other hand, Spring brings mild weather, Fall season transforms the city’s parks with breathtaking colors (a photographer’s dream) while the Summers are warm and vibrant.
Matt has been with us for 6 years, and has proven himself as a true professional. His credo is “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” Outside of work, Matt can be found on the basketball court or with his family watching old movies.
Samuel is one of our most dependable crew members. He takes pride in treating every client’s belongings as if they were his own, and his calm approach keeps even the most stressful moves running smoothly.
Why Us
At A Plus Moving Group, satisfaction isn’t a marketing phrase — it’s a standard we’re held to by over 700 verified customer reviews across Google, Facebook, and AuthorityMovers.com.
Clients like the US Army, Bank of America, and Airbnb have trusted us with their moves, and we treat every residential customer with the same level of care.
If something isn’t right, we make it right. That’s the A Plus promise.
Most movers show up with a truck. We show up with a plan. A Plus Moving Group handles every phase of your move: furniture disassembly, professional packing, secured transport, and full reassembly at your new location.
We also specialize in moves that other companies turn down — piano relocation, fish tank transport, IT equipment handling, and oversized or awkwardly shaped furniture. If it needs to get from point A to point B safely, we have the equipment and the experience to do it.
A Plus Moving Group is fully licensed and insured — USDOT #3920829, MC #1450184 — and every move we take on comes with full value insurance coverage. That means if anything is damaged in transit, you’re covered for its actual replacement value, not some fraction of it.
We don’t cut corners on protection, because your belongings aren’t replaceable by a lowball claim.
Life doesn’t run on a Monday-through-Friday schedule, and neither do we. A Plus Moving Group is available six days a week — Monday through Saturday — including holidays, because we know that’s often when moves actually happen.
Our crews are trained to work efficiently without rushing, so punctuality never comes at the cost of care. And if something urgent comes up, we maintain dedicated emergency teams for same-day service.
Our fleet isn’t one-size-fits-all — and your move shouldn’t be either. A Plus Moving Group operates a modern lineup of GPS-tracked trucks in multiple sizes, and you choose the configuration that makes sense for your move: the right van size, the right number of movers. That flexibility means you’re never paying for capacity you don’t need, and you’re never stuck with a crew that’s underprepared for the job.
Every A Plus Moving Group crew member passes a background check and is hired based on demonstrated professionalism — not just availability. Our movers show up knowing your move plan, prepared for the specific items involved, and briefed on any special handling requirements.
The values we hire for — discipline, honesty, respect, and accountability — are the same ones our customers mention by name in their reviews. That’s not an accident.
The price we quote is the price you pay. A Plus Moving Group operates on fixed, transparent quotes — the number you see before your move is the number on your final invoice, with nothing added on top.
We’d rather earn your trust upfront with an honest price than chase you with surprises at the end. That’s how we’ve built the reputation that 700+ customers took the time to put in writing.

The exact cost depends on the number of floors and the volume of items being transported. And we always discuss these points in advance to put everything into the estimate.
Of course! We do long distance moves as well as moves within the same neighbourhood or even the same building. For example, if you need to move from one flat to another, our experts will arrive and do the job carefully, minimising stress and hassle.
We use every opportunity: we book parking at households, if there is a second exit, we use it. If there is no lift, we plan for extra time and labour to load or deliver all your belongings to your new home.
