Movers in Yorkville, Manhattan

ZeroMax Moving and Storage provides local and long-distance movers in Yorkville for walk-ups, doorman towers and family apartments along East End Avenue. As a licensed NYC moving company, we move everything from a fourth-floor walk-up on East 83rd Street to a three-bedroom near Carl Schurz Park. Our movers carry the stairs, send your building its certificate of insurance and route the truck along the avenues, since trucks are not allowed on the FDR Drive.

  1. Moves inside Yorkville or to any other borough, usually finished in a single day. Local moving starts from $99 an hour, and the final price is confirmed in a free written quote. We plan the load around your stairs, your elevator booking and the curb on your block.

  2. Full home moves out of walk-ups between Second and York, doorman towers on First Avenue and family apartments on East End Avenue. We protect stairwells and lobbies, wrap every piece of furniture and set up the new place room by room.

  3. Small offices, medical practices and shops along 86th Street and the avenues. We pack files and equipment, label every box and schedule around building rules and your patients or customers.

  4. Prefer one price up front? Ask for a flat fee quote based on your inventory, the floors at both ends and the distance, so the number stays the same on move day.

  5. Family apartments near the river often hold pianos, antiques and art passed down over years. We crate valuable pieces and pad them for elevators and stairwells alike.

  6. Renovating or waiting on a new lease? We pick up from your Yorkville apartment, store your things at our Red Hook facility in Brooklyn and deliver them when you are ready.

  7. Leaving Yorkville for another state? Our long-distance movers pack, load and drive your shipment to your new home, with storage in between if your dates do not line up.

  8. Studios, roommate shares and family apartments, from fifth-floor walk-ups to full-service towers. We carry everything up and down the stairs, book the service elevator where there is one and send the COI.

How Much Do Yorkville Movers Cost?

What Yorkville Movers Run Into

Yorkville moves come down to stairs, building rules and the route out of the neighborhood. Here is what our movers plan for before move day.

Walk-Ups East of Second Avenue

The side streets between Second Avenue and York Avenue are full of four and five-story walk-ups, many of them shares and first apartments. Tell us your floor and measure big pieces like sofas and bed frames, so we know before move day if anything has to come apart.

No Trucks on the FDR Drive

The FDR Drive runs right along the edge of Yorkville, but commercial trucks are banned from it. We route the truck along First, Second and York Avenues instead and time departures around rush hour, which matters most on moves downtown or across a bridge. The same avenue routing applies if you are moving in East Harlem, just a few blocks north of 96th Street.

Doorman Towers and Co-ops

The bigger buildings on First, York and East End Avenue usually want a certificate of insurance and a booked service elevator, and some limit moves to weekdays. Ask your managing agent for the rules early, and we will send the COI and confirm the time. West of Third Avenue, our Upper East Side crew works with the same co-op boards and service elevator rules.

Outside the Toll Zone

Yorkville is well above 60th Street, so a move that stays uptown or heads to the Bronx or Queens does not enter the Congestion Relief Zone. If you are moving to a building below 60th Street, ask about the toll when you get your quote.

Yorkville Areas We Move

Yorkville changes block by block from Third Avenue to the river, and each part changes how the move runs.

East End Avenue and Carl Schurz Park

Quiet pre-war co-ops and family apartments facing the park and Gracie Mansion. Buildings here tend to have strict move hours and careful lobby rules, so book the elevator first.

Second Avenue to York Avenue

Walk-ups and mid-size rentals popular with young renters, close to the Second Avenue subway at 86th Street. Stairs set the pace, and many leases turn over at month end. Many renters here come up from Midtown, and our movers in Murray Hill can pack the old place the same week.

86th Street to 96th Street

Big doorman towers, shops along 86th Street and newer rentals near the 96th Street station. Loading docks help, but busy sidewalks make early starts easier. Heading to more space at the top of Manhattan? Our Inwood movers handle the larger pre-war apartments up there too.

Overall, the service helped take some of the pressure out of moving. The team handled our belongings carefully, communicated clearly, and helped us get through an otherwise busy day.

Moving with children and managing all the usual household tasks can be a lot to juggle. Having a moving crew take care of the transportation made the day easier for our family.
I was glad to have help disassembling and moving some of our larger furniture. Handling those pieces ourselves would have taken considerably more time and effort.
