As a New Yorker, you’re likely already aware that city living isn’t cheap. Rents are among the highest in the country, even your typical takeout order bill is high. High prices and NYC are synonymous in some ways. With that in mind, would it be reasonable to expect that you’ll need to pay a pretty penny for reputable and reliable moving services?

Finding Cheap Movers in NYC
You want your items to get to their drop off destination in intact, and you don’t want to pay a high price for the service. That doesn’t necessarily have to be a tall order when it comes to finding cheap movers in NYC.
Taking some time to get to know your (potential) movers and understand the quotes they give you will help you make an informed decision about your relocation budget.
We have summarized the following strategies to get the best price for your next move:
- Talk to several moving companies and compare quotes. Yes, this means reaching out to more than one moving company in the city. As soon as you know you may be planning a move, start reaching out to companies who are insured, licensed appropriately, and are registered with the US Department of Transportation. These are signs you’re dealing with reputable professionals. Then, when you get quotes, take a look at the bottom line. Is the total cost too good to be true (in other words: really low)? It might be a tell-tale sign you’ve encountered some fly-by-night movers who may not be reliable. When you review your quotes, look for what you need and prices that seem reasonable for what you’re getting (in comparison to the multiple quotes you received!). Prioritizing quality service over the lowest quote will likely reap a final cost for your move that you can trust.
- Get clear about what’s included in your quote and how the charges are estimated. Once you get your quotes, take a gander at all that is included in the total price. The last thing you want is to be surprised with hidden fees and paying for services you don’t need. That said, be aware that there are some necessary services that you’ll be quoted for that will cost a bit extra, such as moving heavy items, getting those items down several flights of stairs, navigating elevators, and the like. It’s also good to keep in mind that moving quotes measured by the cubic feet of space that your items to be moved take up (i.e., measuring by volume), rather than their total weight will result in a more accurate estimate for your relocation costs. Further, are there services included that you don’t need? Anything you don’t quite understand about what is being offered? This is a perfect time to ask some questions and get some clarity. Trusted and reputable movers will be transparent about what’s included in their quotes.
Additionally, some factors that influence the price of a moving company’s services may be ones you can change to meet your budget and inform your arrangements. Do you have any flexibility on:
- Timing. Not worried about rescheduling your relocation for the winter? What about the time of the week or month? If you are, you may be able to avoid making arrangements during the busiest part of the year (summer, early fall, weekends, and month-end) to move and it’ll likely save you some bucks. Check out our best time to move guide.
- Distance. Lastly, no matter the timing of your move, the distance you are planning to go will significantly impact your moving bill’s bottom line. Going the distance when it comes to relocation will cost you more. That’s just the long and short of it. It’s good to enter into the budget conversation with that in mind. Check out our flat fee moving formula and how the distance between your locations influences your move.
