Experienced Financial District Movers

This financial hub (as the name would imply) is often referred to as FiDi for short. This neighborhood at the southern tip of Manhattan, though that’s just the tip of the iceberg. From the Charging Bull to City Hall, moving here means that you’ll have some of the best shopping options, dining, cultural institutions, arts, and architecture to enjoy in a part of the city that hustles by day and is way more laid-back at night.

If you’d like to tip your moving experience in favor of less stress, then your first call will be to Piece of Cake Moving and Storage. Our team of moving professionals are well-versed NYC moving experts. Familiar with all forms of city-livin’ complexity from navigating busy sidewalks to carefully traversing several flights in your new walk-up apartment building, we’ve done it all. Our experience and expertise extends to your relocation no matter how much or how little we support your move, from just providing moving supplies or renting our plastic moving bins to utilizing our Platinum Packing Experience. Working with us makes financial sense (check out our flat fee guarantee), so you’ll have more dollars to explore your new spot in the city.

Our top Financial District Moving Tips

There’s more to it than just Wall Street in these parts. To the east, the bounds of this downtown neighborhood are on the edge of the East River and the Brooklyn Bridge. To the west, you’ll find the West Side Highway is a demarcation line. The Battery waterfront and park is to the south and to the north is Chambers Street and City Hall Park.

Beyond the streets and sights that surround the perimeter, you’ll definitely want to dig deeper for details on the Financial District, including:

  • Arts, Architecture, and Culture. Though the city is full of sights and sounds, this neighborhood has a collection of them that’s all it’s own. To begin, you can experience the breathtaking World Trade Center Oculus. It’s both an impressive architectural structure and a transportation hub and it makes getting to other parts of the city a breeze. You’ll also be next door to the World Trade Center memorials and the One World Trade Center building (complete with an observatory at the top of 102 floors). Appreciating the neighborhood’s namesake wouldn’t be complete without taking a selfie with the Charging Bull statue on Wall Street. If museums are to your fancy, you’ll have a few to visit nearby. Getting up to speed on US financial history seems appropriate as a new resident of the area, so clear an afternoon to check out the Museum of American Finance. You might also put the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian and  Fraunces Tavern showcases collections from the Colonial and Revolutionary era in the state on your list of places to visit.
  • Hustle by day, stroll by night. While the neighborhood is certainly known for its economic goings-on and fast-paced business during the day, many report that the wheels spin a little slower after hours. In more recent years, this has made the neighborhood more attractive for families looking for a centrally located spot in the city that is calm for children in the evening hours. Does your family include four-legged canine friends? If so, you’ll be happy to know that there are plenty of apartment buildings and pet-friendly eateries so that they can be in, out, and about with you. Another reason why folks are flocking to downtown Manhattan? The Financial District is said to be one of the cleanest in the borough.
  • Shopping of all types. FiDi is full of retail goodies for those who like to shop until they drop. If that’s you, this means you’ll be in the midst of all the best spots to peruse and swipe your plastic to purchase — and literally be able to drop right by your place nearby when you’re done. From department stores, to chic boutiques, to boho flea markets, this neighborhood has it all. Within Brookfield Place and the stores at Westfield in One World Trade Center, you’ll find high-end and well-known brands as well as some great places to eat and fuel up for the second leg of your shopping spree. Hermes on Broad Street will likely also be on your shopping list of places to stop with exclusive fashions. Whether it’s the latest trends or special pieces, you’re likely to find it in FiDi.
  • Fantastic FiDi food: Finding your flavor or what tastes tickle your fancy won’t be hard in this part of Manhattan. You’ll find everything from typical diner grub to pinkies-up fine dining. One such place, Delmonico’s fits the bill for fine dining in the neighborhood. Open since 1837, it features white tablecloths, chandeliers, and grand paintings on the walls; it really sets the mood for a special night. Not to worry if you’re on the hunt for more of a greasy-spoon menu. You can find it in FiDi as well. Pearl Diner is a great spot to grab a seat on a swivel stool at the bar for a classic egg and bacon breakfast on the cheap. And you know it’s good because they’ve been slingin’ diner cuisine for 50 years. Not sure what you want (or what might work for your crew)? Look no further than the South Street Seaport. Formally known as the Fulton Fish Market, this location is home to a number of restaurants, bars, and shops — a great spot to meet up with your pals or a special someone. Stone Street is another city street that’s known for being full of flavor and tasty libations.
  • Cost of living. Living in Manhattan is definitely going to be higher than many places in the US, so setting your expectations accordingly is wise if you’re relocating from outside of the city. For instance, those high-end retailers will also have the added costs of sales tax, which locally add up to 8.875% on your receipt. If you’re already an NYC resident and making a local move, you’ll be happy to know that luxury building living can be found at a fraction of the cost of nearby areas and other parts of the city (relatively speaking). So what does that mean in housing costs? If you’re planning on renting, the average monthly rent for a one-bedroom is between $3488 and $5,552. For those hoping to own their home in the downtown area, the median listing cost is at $1.3 million and averages $1.3k per square foot. Where else may you make out like a financial bandit? Being centrally located in lower Manhattan will make taking economical forms of transit a breeze! Public transportation options from the city’s Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) are easy to find and cost $2.75 per one-way ride on the subway or buses.

    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.....

  • star star star star star

    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.

  • star star star star star

    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!
