What Customers Say About Our Local Moving
Local Moving FAQs
-
Local moves in NYC typically cost $400 to $900 for a studio, $550 to $1,200 for a one-bedroom, $900 to $2,200 for a two-bedroom and $2,000 to $3,800 for a three-bedroom. ZeroMax hourly rates start from $99 an hour, and flat rates are available. Your price depends on crew size, time on the job, stairs, elevators, distance and packing, and you get a free written quote first.
-
Most local NYC moves take 2 to 4 hours for a studio, 3 to 6 hours for a one-bedroom and 5 to 8 hours for a two-bedroom. Three-bedroom homes often need 7 to 10 hours with a larger crew. Time grows with walk-ups, long carries from the truck, elevator booking windows and traffic, and it shrinks when everything is packed and ready before the crew arrives.
-
The biggest factors are how much you are moving, crew size and the time the job takes. Walk-ups, long carries, elevator windows and street parking add time, and Manhattan moves typically run 15 to 25 percent higher than the city average. Weekends, the last days of the month and May to September also cost more, so a midweek, mid-month date usually saves money.
-
Book two to four weeks ahead for most local moves, and four to eight weeks ahead for weekends, month-end dates or the summer peak. That gives time to confirm your building's elevator and insurance requirements. If your date is sooner, call (929) 295-6262 anyway, since ZeroMax offers same-day and next-day moves when a crew is available.
-
Yes, ZeroMax handles certificates of insurance for NYC buildings, along with elevator reservations and other building requirements. Ask your management office for its COI requirements, usually a sample listing the building and management company as additional insured, and send them to us. Most buildings want the COI 24 to 48 hours before move day, and many co-ops ask for 48 to 72 hours.
