Our Top Forest Hills Moving Tips

Nestled into central Queens, Forest Hills begins at 62nd Avenue to the north and ends at Jackie Robinson Parkway to the south. East to west, it stretches from Grand Central Parkway to a more jagged edge along 102nd Street, Selfridge Street and 67th Avenue. Nearby neighborhoods include Corona, Rego Park, Glendale, Forest Park, Kew Gardens, and Flushing Meadows-Corona Park.

Knowing what’s within and outside of it’s bounds is a start, but there’s a lot more to know about this part of the borough, including:

  • Cost of housing and transit. If you’ve left the place you were living and are making your way to Forest Hills, finding a new abode is likely very high on your relocation list. The good news is that there’s a diverse offering of residential spaces, such as prewar and postwar apartments,Tudor-style townhomes, and homes of the single and two family variety. In the cases of purchasing or renting your new home, you’ll find some of the more affordable living spaces in NYC. Those ready to sign on the dotted line for a permanent place, you’ll be looking at a median listing price of about $420k (homes go for millions in nearby Manhattan). Rental prices are on par with some neighborhoods, averaging $3,246 a month for a one-bedroom in the area. It’s a little more expensive than the average rent of $2,780 overall in Queens. While you’ll find similar rents elsewhere in the city, you’re more likely to get a larger layout in your rental in Forest Hills. What else is pretty big in this neck of the urban jungle? The list of public transit options! Forest Hills is accessible by the M, R, E, and F Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) subway trains at the 71st Avenue Station. For the reasonable price of $2.75 per one-way ride, you can say that getting where you want to go is pretty economical in these parts. You can also get to and from the neighborhood by accessing the Long Island Railroad at Continental Avenue and Austin Street (just about as economical, though the cost depends on the final destination of your ride).
  • Forest Hills are alive with music, shopping, and entertainment. If you like good music, you won’t have to venture far from your front door to enjoy it. You’re likely to catch your new favorite act at the historic Forest Hills Stadium. It’s seen the likes of The Beatles, Frank Sinatra, The Rolling Stones, and Bob Dylan grace its stage. The stadium itself is located in The West Side Tennis Club. So whether you are a spectator or a player, you’ll be entertained by this raquetted sport. For those who seek out more sedentary forms of entertainment, look no further than a showing at Cinemart Cinemas. There you’ll find screens screening films of both the popular and art-house variety. Lastly, if you’d rather top off your day with a bit of retail bliss, options abound around the main commercial thoroughfare of Austin Street.
  • Forest Hill Flavors. Those who like variety and also have a sweet tooth will be in foodie heaven in Forest Hills. Because we’re adults here, let’s choose dessert first. For a sweet treat that takes you back in time, pull up to the soda fountain bar at Eddie’s Sweet Shop for a Banana Royal or hot fudge sundae. Maybe you’re having your new neighbors coming over for dinner and need something for after your meal. Martha’s Country Bakery has baked goods for all from cookies, cakes, pies, and other pastries on the menu. Or, perhaps you’re on the hunt for a special little chocolate bite. Aigner Chocolate has what you need nearby in truffle, cluster, covered, and candy forms! But, if your taste buds lean more savory, or you just need a taste to balance out the sugary sweet, the flavor doesn’t stop at these confectioners. Grab your crew for Mexican food and margaritas at 5 Burro Cafe. Getting to the Greek cuisine is no sweat with a stop at Oba Mediterranean Gyro & Grill. There’s also a good mix of Asian restaurant offerings with a steaming bowl from Tamashii Ramen, thick pile of noodles from Xin Taste Lan Zhou Hand Pull Noodle, or several orders of dumplings from Memories of Shanghai. Beyond placing a food order, you could also grab a tasty libation from several of the local bars and gastropubs, including Station House.
  • Forest green(space). Living in a major metropolitan area doesn’t mean you won’t be able to enjoy some peace and recreation in nature. This Queens neighborhood is home to several spots to find sanctuary. Outdoor recreation also can be found located within a block, such as Yellowstone Municipal Park. It’s a great place to bring Fido for some off-leash time at the dog run and your pals for some above-the-rim time with a pick up game of basketball on the courts there. Along the borders, you’ll find spots to scratch your physical activity itch as well. Just south of Jackie Robinson Parkway resides the 500+ acre Forest Park. There, you’ll find fun for the whole family — playgrounds, a carousel, bbq spots, dog runs, a nature center, hiking trails, and even a golf course and band shell! If you’re keen to be horseback, there’s a stable there. For even more hiking trails, make sure to take time to traverse the Willow Lake Trails at 72nd Road that’ll lead you into nearby Flushing Meadows-Corona Park.

    From start to finish my move was a great experience. I immediately got a quote. The scheduling was easy, and they provided me with information regarding insurance coverage (and took care of the paperwork my building provided). The move itself went like clockwork. The movers arrived on time and texted me when they were on their way with an ETA to the delivery site. They moved everything up the 3 flights of stairs into my apartment quickly and safely. A great company that provides great service at very reasonable rates.

    They were awesome! They take everything apart and then re assemble for you.They wrap up your tvs and glass shit professionally. They take the legs off your couch so it fits through doors. Everything's wrapped until it's inside so it doesn't ruin the paint on your walls if they rub against them.Not even a wine glass was chipped.

  • star star star star star

    They came at zero hour after the moving company I initially hired and paid a deposit to canceled. I was freaking out about my move not happening at all but they did get this done and my stuff arrived more or less intact and accounted for. They handled changes and snafus gracefully and earned their money. Hopefully I won't be moving again for a long time but if I get forced into that again, I'll remember this experience.

  • star star star star star

    Was very easy to call and set up a move. The price was good to. I had some mix-ups and needed to add items and even change the date, but they were able to easily accommodate. Day of the move the crew was super nice and professional. They quickly packed up the entire apartment with ease, I didn't really lift a finger. They made what is usually a stressful day pretty easy.

  • star star star star star

    I was amazed how efficient the guys were. they sorted out my items to be removed and, went straight to work. We will definitely use A Piece of Cake multiple times in the future until, we officially make the BIG MOVE! THANKS FOR YOUR HELP....YES, IT WAS A PIECE OF CAKE! NO STRESS INVOLVED...JUST SWEET SERVINGS.....

    Piece of Cake Moving was phenomenal to work with. From the initial sale, to the follow up, to the day of delivery. The moving crew themselves were a dream to work with. I honestly don't know how they managed to move everything we'd accumulated over the years in such a short (relatively) period of time. Will definitely use them again (in hopefully 7-8 years).

    Jose and his team did a great job moving my husband and I. They arrived on time and were very organized. They were professional, courteous and moved us quickly. They wrapped our furniture very well. They took apart and put together our bed and sectional couch. We were very pleased and would recommend them.

  • star star star star star

    Nicholas and Giga made this moving experience an easy one, especially since I was moving alone. They were punctual, kind and very thoughtful. When we arrived to my apartment? They helped unwrap all the packing tape and set up my furniture and bed - something that would take probably days for me. They delivered excellent service and went beyond my expectations.

  • star star star star star

    Excellent moving company. I hired 2 men for 2 hours to complete 1 bedroom move. They arrived early, were extremely efficient, helpful, personable, strong, and careful. They finished the job with 45 min to spare. Everything went extremely smoothly. I would hire Piece of Cake again.

    Great move with POC movers! I rented their pink bins which was an excellent choice, they provide plenty of packing paper, zip ties, and tags. My team arrived right at the start of their arrival window and quickly and safely packed all my bins and furniture into their truck. The team just as efficiently unloaded everything, leaving the bins in the labeled rooms and re assembling my bed frame. I definitely recommend renting their bins. I would definitely use Piece of Cake movers again and recommend them to a friend.

    The movers were so professional, friendly and quick. They took such great care of my stuff. I happened to move on one of the hottest days of the year and felt so bad. They were gracious and so still worked quickly. Pls make sure you tip your movers good, they work hard and were really great!

  • star star star star star

    I had made an appointment from another moving company that completely screwed me over the day of. I called every moving company in New York freaking out, and Piece of Cake was willing to come at 7pm to help me move, last minute. I genuinely don't know what I would have done if they didn't go out of their way to fit me in. Anytime in the future I will be using piece of cake moving! They boxed and unboxed so fast and efficiently, it was amazing!
