# Small Moves in NYC, Done in a Morning

Moving in with a partner, sending a room to storage or taking half the furniture to a new place? We handle small moves across the five boroughs, North Jersey and Westchester with the same crews and the same care as a full apartment.

It’s $165 an hour for two movers and a truck with a 3-hour minimum, and most small moves finish inside it. Text or chat for a reply in under a minute, or call (212) 555-0142.

## Do you offer small moves in NYC?

Yes. We take on small moves of every kind, from a single room or a few pieces of furniture to a dozen boxes going across town. Small moves use our normal rate of $165 an hour for two movers and a truck with a 3-hour minimum, and most finish within that time. Everything is wrapped, carried and placed, and we send a COI to your building if it asks for one. Send a photo of the load and both addresses for a price.

**Typical job (example prices):** Most small moves within the city, a few pieces of furniture and up to 20 boxes, finish within the 3-hour minimum: $495. Longer drives or long walk-ups at both ends can take 3–4 hours.

- **Best for:** One room or a few pieces
- **Quote details:** Photos + both addresses
- **Base:** Brooklyn, NY

## When a small move is the right choice

A small move is anything less than a full home: a room, a few big pieces, or the boxes and furniture you’re taking when you move in with someone. It suits people who don’t want to rent a truck, find two friends and carry a dresser down four flights themselves, but who don’t need a full moving day either.

Typical small moves for us are a bedroom set going from Crown Heights to a partner’s place in Astoria, half a shared apartment in Harlem going to a new share, or a few pieces from a Hoboken apartment heading to storage before a renovation. If the list grows past one room, an apartment move quote usually works out better, and we’ll tell you so from the photos.

### What to send for a quote
- Photos of each piece, or one video of everything that’s going
- Both addresses, with floors and elevator details
- Your preferred day and time window
- Anything heavy or awkward, like a sleeper sofa or a solid wood dresser

## Who this service is for

- **You’re moving in with someone and only bringing part of your place**
- **You’re moving a room’s worth of things, not a full apartment**
- **You’re leaving a shared apartment and taking your share of the furniture**
- **You’re sending some furniture to storage while you stage or renovate**
- **You’re moving within the same building, from one floor to another**
- **You’d rather pay two careful movers than spend a weekend borrowing a van**

## When another service is a better fit

We would rather point you to the right service than squeeze every job into the same box.

- [Man With a Van](https://leadkeet.com/website-templates/brightside/demo/man-with-a-van/): If it’s mostly boxes and one or two pieces on a tight block, a van is easier to park.
- [Apartment & Home Moves](https://leadkeet.com/website-templates/brightside/demo/apartment-moves/): If it’s more than one room, a full apartment move usually costs less per piece.
- [Single-Item Moves](https://leadkeet.com/website-templates/brightside/demo/single-item-moves/): For one heavy or valuable piece, a single agreed price can work out simpler.

## How we quote this kind of job

1. **Send photos:** Text or chat photos of what’s going, both addresses and how many floors there are at each end.
2. **Get a time and price:** We tell you how long it should take and what it will cost, and book a slot that suits you.
3. **Move it:** Two movers wrap, carry and place everything, usually within the 3-hour minimum.

## Small Moves questions answered

### Is there a minimum charge?
Yes, 3 hours at $165 an hour, so $495 for two movers and a truck. Most small moves inside the city finish within it.

### Can you move things within the same building?
Yes. Moves between floors or apartments in the same building are quick, and we still protect the elevator and the hallways.

### Can some things go to storage and the rest to my new place?
Yes. We can make two drop-offs in one booking, one at your new place and one at our Brooklyn warehouse or your own storage unit.

### Do you take apart and rebuild furniture?
Yes. Beds, tables and desks are taken apart and rebuilt as part of the job, with the hardware bagged and labeled.

### How quickly can you come?
Small moves are often booked within a few days, and sometimes the next day. Text us and we’ll offer the first open slot.
