NYMinuteMovers 1
Their priority is the safe and punctual arrival of your belongings to their new destination. No exceptions. No excuses. This company is beyond reliable.

One of their specialties is working with trade shows and art exhibitions. The company's movers and packers will see to the safe transportation and arrival of your corporate banners, tables, and promotional material.
NYMinuteMovers 2
If you are running an art gallery or are holding an exhibition at a museum or other venue, NY Minute's crew will handle your sculptures and paintings with kid gloves.
 
And, just like their boss, NY Minute's moves are tough. They can handle anything that might come up.  And, they won't be scared off if you happen to live in ( or be moving to), a walk-up apartment.
 
As you would expect from a company run by a former eight-year Marine vet, the crews here are very well organized.  These guys love to wrap and pack. And they do it with absolute precision and neatness.
However, if you prefer, you can do all the packing yourself. They offer a variety of packing materials, from large, medium and small boxes, bubble wrap and mattress bags to packing tape and wardrobe boxes.
NYMinuteMovers 3
On the New York Minute Movers website, there is a simple, sincere and straightforward message from the owner. " Let us serve you, the client, those kindas we did our country".

High Touch Moving - Long Island City

Trust is not easily come by. It has to be earned. This is especially true when you are making the decision as to deciding who to trust when it's time to move your possessions.  Just any moving company won't do. After all, to some companies, your goods are just pieces of furniture and  "stuff". But to you, they are valuable property as well as sentimental objects.
HighTouchMoving 1
High Touch Moving recognizes what your possessions mean to you. They are very real memories being loaded into a moving truck. That calls for a high-maintenance approach to things. And that is exactly what you will get when you choose High Touch to be your partner in moving.
 
The people at High Touch firmly believe that LOCAL moves are the heart of the moving business.  That's one of the many reasons that they have achieved such an enviable reputation in the Astoria and Long Island City community.
And yet, though their focus is Western Queens, High Touches' crews can move you across town or across the country.  No job is too big or too small. The only thing that matters is that YOU are happy. The folks here realize that moving represents a huge change in the life of each client. Their job is to make the transition as smooth as possible.
HighTouchMoving 2
High Touch goes the extra mile, as well, when it comes to green moving practices. First and foremost, you'll be glad to know that High Touch uses card board boxes that are made from recycled materials. These materials can be recycled again for future moves. The positive impact on our environment is tremendous.

Should you wish, their movers can move your possessions without utilizing cardboard boxes at all. Instead, they will substitute reusable packing containers.
 
When it comes to protecting our planet, High Touch thinks of the smallest details.  By planning the most efficient route to your destination, they save fuel and thereby reduce the impact of pollution during transportation.

High Touch has been in business since 2005. They don't look like they're going anywhere, anytime soon.

Katz Moving  -  Long Island City

Katz Moving is moving the way it should be; customer-friendly, transparent and dedicated, with an emphasis on cutting-edge technology.
 
If you have moved anywhere in the New York area, over the last decade, you might already be familiar with the company's founder Jon Katz.  An entrepreneur who always seems to be ahead of his time, Jon spent years building  Flat Rate Moving into the largest commercial and residential moving company in the city.
KatzMoving 01
But, when 2012 rolled around, Jon found himself to be up for a new challenge. He wanted to give consumers a moving company where above average client services were combined with state of the art technological advances.
When looking at his competitors, Jon found that most companies were still stuck in a very basic 1990's business model. One the flip side of things, the few movers who DID utilize computers and GPS tracking, did so for their benefit, not the clients. There had to be a better way. And there was... Katz Moving!
 
When you book a move with Katz, you can be certain about some very important details. Your belongings will never leave your sight. Even if you are nowhere near their moving van. You will always know just where your van is at any given time. You'll use no plastic tape made from fossil fuels. And your move will leave zero carbon footprint.
KatzMoving 02
Now, that's quite a few promises. But, Katz Moving can back them up.
 
Watch your belongings on the truck, in real time, courtesy of Katz' Stuff Cam. By using their onboard surveillance system, you'll be able to monitor the storage area as well as the crew in the trucks' cab, on your mobile device. That is beyond cool.
   
For some time, now, most moving companies have been using vehicle tracking devices to keep tabs on their crews. The only problem was, clients were never given access to the GPS tracking.
However, when you make your move with Katz, you'll be able to pinpoint your van's location. If you are waiting at the entrance to your new house, apartment or condo building, the last thing you want to put up with is the late arrival of the truck that is bearing your clothes and furniture.  Now, with Katz' client GPS tracking, you won't have to keep calling customer service to find out where your belongings are. You'll know if the crew is stuck in traffic or stopped for an unscheduled break.
KatzMoving 03
Moving, as we have discussed earlier in this article, can be extremely stressful on us humans. But the stress factor goes sky-high if you have a pet dog or cat.
On moving day, pet moms and dads have a million and one things to do. But, keeping your pet calm and happy is so very vital.
 
Jon Katz and his expert staff understand what you and your furry friend are going through.  That's why Katz has partnered with some of the kindest and most experienced pet transport and boarding services in the city.
They've got the trusted referrals that you need if you want to board your dog overnight and pick the little fellow up after you've moved into your new place. By riding with a reliable pet transportation service, your dog or cat can travel directly to your new apartment, arriving there to be greeted by mom and dad.
KatzMoving 04
When Katz Moving says that they offer a different way to move, they're not kidding. This is a modern and responsible way to get your move accomplished; a way of innovative strategies, recycling techniques, and digital outreach.
 
You are on your mobile devices constantly. That's how you live. That's how you do business. Why not work with a company that feels the same way?

A family owned business that started in Staten Island back in 1968, 1/2 Price Movers launched their Queens operation during the Summer of 2014.
 
Since then, this highly professional company has been moving everyone from young, newly married couples and college students to busy professionals and empty nesters who are leaving the family home for cozier quarters.

Your crew will gladly reassemble anything that they had to take apart at your old place.
1 2PriceMovers 02
Most people who are in the process of moving don't really give much thought to the truck that their possessions are going to be transported in. That's a big mistake. Oh sure, you want the van to be clean and spotless, if possible. But beyond that what more can a moving company offer? A great deal, as it turns out.
 
While walking around your neighborhood in Astoria, you've probably seen one of 1/2 Price Movers bright, colorful trucks that are affectionately nicknamed Big Yellow.
The company has grown from one lonely truck on Staten Island to a fleet of dozens of vans throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens.
 
You'll be happy to know that the truck that will be carrying your valuables is a current year International Durastar 4300.
The Durastar is fitted with the IROS rear air ride suspension for the truck's tandem axles. What does this have to do with a better ride for your belongings? This translates to an effortlessly smooth air ride that ensures your furniture safely travels from pick-up to drop-off point.
1 2PriceMovers 03
Of course, no matter how state of the art a truck may be, it is only as good as its' maintenance.  Well, 1/2 Price employees people whose job it is to keep their trucks clean, well-oiled and in tip-top shape.
In the highly unlikely event that a truck should break down in the middle of a move, your day won't be ruined. Their entire fleet is backed by a 24/7 roadside assistance program and a replacement truck guarantee. No matter what, they will keep you on the move!
 
One of the things that most clients appreciate about 1/2 Price ( aside from their super competitive rates), is the fact that the company gives back to all of the communities that they service. Whether it's by way of sponsoring a youth sports league or making a donation to a local charity, I/2 Price Movers management cares.
