What’s Included With Every New York Move

Our trucks arrive fully equipped with the tools, equipment, and protective materials a move needs, whether the job is a studio in Astoria or a house in Rochester: furniture pads, floor and door protection, dollies, straps, and stretch wrap. The same methods apply at every address in the state.

Open the items below to see what every New York move includes, from furniture protection to basic valuation coverage.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

We wrap each piece in moving blankets and stretch wrap before it leaves the room, so it stays protected for the whole trip. Items included:

Couches

Chairs

Mattresses

Bed frames

Dressers

Tables

Shelving units

Cabinets

Our team handles furniture assembly and disassembly as part of your move. We take large pieces apart for transport, bag the hardware, tag it to the piece it came from, and put everything back together when we arrive. Items include:

Bed frames

Tables

Armoires

China cabinets

Shelving units

Desks

Our trucks arrive stocked with the equipment needed to move your home safely, including dollies, straps, shrink wrap, furniture pads, and floor protection. We also provide five specialty moving boxes at no extra charge for your fragile, valuable, or awkwardly shaped items. Please order these before your move date so we can guarantee we have them on the truck.

TV Box

Picture/Mirror Box

Wardrobe Box

Lamp Box

Mattress Box

Loading: Our team loads your items carefully, keeps the heavy pieces low, and straps everything down so nothing shifts while we drive.

Unloading: When we arrive, we unwrap your items, place them where you want them, and make sure everything is set up before we leave.

Your rate covers all of the transportation costs for your move. This includes:

Fuel

Tolls

Travel Expenses

Every move includes basic valuation coverage at $0.60 per pound per item, which follows federal moving regulations. If you want more than the standard reimbursement, we can go over the higher valuation options with you before your move date.

New York Moving Questions Answered

Do you serve all of New York or just the city?

All of it. Crews run local moves in the five boroughs, on Long Island, in Westchester and the Hudson Valley, and in the upstate cities, including Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Albany, and the college towns. The Cities We Serve list near the top of this page links to the pages we have for each area.

Is a move from Manhattan to Westchester or Long Island a local move?

Yes. Any move that starts and ends within New York State is a local move, priced by the hour or at a flat rate, including the city to the suburbs or across upstate. Only moves that cross a state line, into New Jersey or Connecticut for example, are priced as long-distance moves.

Are you licensed to move within New York?

Yes. Poseidon Moving is licensed and insured for household moves within New York State and for interstate moves, and we can send proof of insurance to your building or landlord before move day. Basic liability coverage is included on every move, with full valuation coverage available as an option.

How far ahead should I book a move in New York?

Two to four weeks is enough most of the year. For a date between May and September, the last or first day of a month, or the first week of September, book four to six weeks ahead. Managed buildings in the city also need time to approve paperwork and assign an elevator slot.

Do you move during upstate winters?

Year-round. Winter crews carry extra blankets and door covers, and morning starts make the most of short daylight. Keep walks, steps, and the driveway cleared before the truck arrives, and we handle the rest. Winter dates are the easiest to book.

Can you store my belongings between homes?

Yes. Storage covers a one-night gap between a closing and a move-in, a renovation, or a longer stay, with your items wrapped and loaded once and delivered when you give the word. Ask for storage when you request your quote and it is priced into the same estimate.

Frequently Asked Questions

View all

How do I get an estimate?

Choose whichever fits your schedule for a free quote or consultation.

✓Video walkthrough. A 15-minute video call, room by room. Most popular option.
✓Call us. 866-565-1516 speak with our friendly team.
✓Request a quote online. Send details and we’ll follow up.
✓Free in-person estimate. Available for homes with 2+ bedrooms.

Will my furniture be protected?

Yes. At Poseidon Moving, protecting your furniture is one of our highest priorities.

Every piece is carefully prepared before it’s moved. Our crews use heavy duty moving blankets, stretch wrap, floor protection, and proven loading techniques to help prevent scratches, dents, and shifting during transport.

If you have antiques, artwork, glass, marble, or other high-value items, we can recommend additional protection options such as custom crating or White Glove service.

Are there items you can't move?

Yes. For safety reasons, we cannot transport hazardous materials or certain restricted items. These are commonly referred to as “non-allowable items.”

This includes:

•Propane tanks, gasoline, kerosene, and lighter fluid
•Paint, aerosols, household cleaners, and other hazardous chemicals
•Fireworks, ammunition, matches, and charcoal
•Living things, including plants, fish, and pets

We recommend transporting these items yourself, using them before your move, or disposing of them safely according to local regulations.

Not sure about a specific item? Just ask your Move Coordinator before moving day, and we’ll be happy to let you know if it can be transported.

Can you take down TVs and wall-mounted items?

Yes. We can remove and reinstall many wall-mounted items as part of your move.

Our crews can typically dismount and reinstall:

✓Mounted TVs
✓Artwork and mirrors
✓Shelving
✓Window air conditioners

Some installations may require additional hardware, specialized tools, or extra time, so these services may incur an additional charge.

If you know you’ll need help with wall-mounted items, let your Move Coordinator know before moving day so we can arrive fully prepared.

How much will my move cost?

Every move is unique, so the most accurate pricing starts with a personalized estimate.

✓Local Moves – Pricing depends on the size of your move, the time required, travel time, and any additional services such as packing, storage, or specialty handling. Based on your move, we’ll recommend either hourly or flat-rate pricing.
✓Long-Distance Moves – We provide binding estimates based on your inventory, the distance, logistics, and any additional services you request.

Do you provide moving supplies and equipment?

Yes. Every Poseidon Moving truck arrives fully stocked with the supplies and equipment your move may need.

✓Heavy-duty moving pads, stretch wrap, and tape
✓Dollies, hand trucks, straps, and floor protection
✓Basic tools for disassembly and reassembly

If you’re not fully packed by moving day, let us know before your move date and we’ll make sure the crew brings the packing supplies you need – boxes, dish packs, wardrobe boxes, bubble wrap, mirror boxes, and TV boxes.
