About us
The crew behind the calm moving days
A small Brooklyn company with its own trucks, its own crews and a simple rule: the move you were quoted is the move you get.

Hi, I’m Dana.
Founder, Example Movers NYC
I started Example Movers in 2014 with one truck, two friends and a simple idea: New York moves are hard enough without a moving company making them harder. No surprise fees at the end of the day, no crews who disappear for an hour, no damaged doorframes in a building you still have to live next to.
Most of our work is walk-ups, doorman buildings and tight brownstone stairs, so we plan every move around the building, not just the boxes. We book the elevator, send the certificate of insurance to your building manager and check where the truck can actually park before the day.
Today we run a small fleet out of Brooklyn and move people across all five boroughs, North Jersey and Westchester. The crews are ours, the trucks are ours, and the phone (or the chat) is answered in seconds.
“If we say 8am, the truck is outside at 7:55. That is the whole business.”
