New York City Long Distance Moving Experts

Looking for the best long distance movers in NYC who can handle a true New York move with clear pricing and reliable scheduling? Poseidon Moving is a licensed and insured NYC long distance moving company serving Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island, specializing in binding flat-rate long distance moves with no surprise add-ons on move day. Whether your relocation takes you to Florida, Texas, California, or anywhere else nationwide, our experienced interstate movers keep your shipment protected and your timeline organized from start to finish.

Every interstate NYC move runs on a repeatable process: we confirm your inventory, align service level (packing, partial packing, or labor-only), and plan pickup and delivery around real access requirements—so the move stays smooth even when schedules are tight. You’ll get consistent communication once your estimate is confirmed, plus dependable coordination through pickup, transit, and final delivery. With Poseidon, your relocation runs on process, not guesswork—and you always know what’s next.

Long Distance Moving Services NYC

Every long distance move should feel organized from the first call to final delivery—not like you’re chasing updates or guessing what’s included. With Poseidon, you get NYC residential and commercial long distance moving built around a structured plan: your inventory, your building’s move rules, and your timeline. That planning keeps pickup and delivery predictable even with tight access, elevator reservations, COIs, and strict schedules. We coordinate the details up front, then execute with a trained crew that protects your home, your business, your belongings, and your time.

Our NYC long distance moving services include professional furniture protection, organized loading, and interstate transportation with clear checkpoints and consistent communication. Every crew arrives with fully prepped trucks—stocked with heavy-duty moving pads, dollies, and the right tools for safe disassembly/reassembly and secure loading. Need space between addresses or extra flexibility? We offer short-term storage for in-between timing and long-term storage for extended holds, with options that fit both residential and commercial moves. When required, we also support common NYC move-day needs like building paperwork and coordination, so everything stays smooth from borough pickup to final destination. The result is simple: no confusion, no surprises, and a move that runs on process.

We ensure all your furniture is wrapped securely for maximum protection during the move. Items included:

  • Couches
  • Chairs
  • Mattresses
  • Bed frames
  • Dressers
  • Tables
  • Shelving units
  • Cabinets

We’ll disassemble your large furniture for safe transport and reassemble it upon arrival. Items include:

  • Bed frames
  • Tables
  • Armoires
  • China cabinets
  • Shelving units
  • Desks

To ensure maximum protection for your belongings, we provide five specialty moving boxes at no extra charge for fragile, valuable, or uniquely shaped items. These boxes must be pre-ordered before your move date to guarantee availability.

  • TV Box
  • Picture/Mirror Box
  • Wardrobe Box
  • Lamp Box
  • Mattress Box

Loading: Our team carefully loads your items, ensuring they are safely secured and properly strapped inside the truck to prevent any movement during transport.

Unloading: Upon delivery, we’ll unwrap your items, place them exactly where you want, and ensure everything is set up to your satisfaction.

All transportation costs are covered in your flat rate. This includes:

  • Fuel
  • Tolls
  • Travel Expenses

We include basic liability coverage to protect your items during the move. This ensures standard reimbursement for any damages incurred, following industry regulations.

Our New York Cross Country Moving Options

Expedited

If timing is your top priority, expedited service can reduce uncertainty by reserving an exclusive truck and crew for your shipment. This option is designed for time-sensitive relocations where you want a faster route and fewer variables.

  • Exclusive truck and dedicated crew (your shipment only)
    • Priority scheduling and direct routing (no additional pickups)
    • Tighter delivery window (or a scheduled delivery date, when available)
    • Best for full-home relocations or deadline-driven moves

Truck Share

Truck share is a cost-effective option for smaller shipments moving along a similar route. Your items share space on a truck with other customers, while remaining separated and inventoried for organization during loading and unloading.

    • You want a lower price through shared routing
    • You can work within a flexible delivery window
    • You’re moving an apartment, partial home, or smaller shipment
    • You still want professional handling and tracking at key milestones

How Much Do Long Distance Movers in New York City Cost?

NYC long distance moves typically range from $3,500 to $15,000+. Your final cost depends on the distance to your new home, the size of your shipment (weight/volume), and add-on services like packing or short-term/long-term storage. In New York, pricing can also be affected by logistics like walk-ups vs. elevators, building move windows, parking access, and whether a shuttle is needed for tight streets or limited loading zones.

As a baseline, many 1–2 bedroom NYC long distance moves fall between $4,000 and $8,500, while 2–3 bedroom moves often range from $5,500 to $10,500. Larger homes and cross-country relocations commonly land around $8,000 to $15,000+, especially when packing, storage, or complex building coordination is involved.

Frequently Asked Questions

The cost is determined by various factors, including the distance of the move, the total weight or volume of your belongings, the time of year, and any additional services you may require, such as packing or storage.

Ensure the company is properly licensed and insured. Long-distance movers should have a U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) number, which can be verified through the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).

Delivery times can vary based on the distance and the specific logistics of your move. Generally, cross-country moves can take anywhere from a few days to two weeks. It’s advisable to discuss estimated delivery windows with your moving company.

Yes, certain items are prohibited, including hazardous materials (like paint, propane tanks, and chemicals), perishable goods, plants, and personal or sentimental items such as important documents or jewelry. Always consult with your mover for a comprehensive list.

Proper preparation includes decluttering your home, securely packing items using appropriate materials, labeling boxes clearly, and creating an inventory list. For delicate or valuable items, consider professional packing services.

Most reputable moving companies offer basic liability coverage, but this may not fully cover the value of your belongings. It’s often recommended to opt for full-value protection or to check with your homeowner’s insurance for additional coverage options.
