Staten Island movers
Reliable movers on Staten Island
Staten Island moves are mostly houses: detached homes in Tottenville and Great Kills, semi-attached homes in New Dorp and Eltingville, and hillside houses on Todt Hill and Grymes Hill with long, steep driveways. We cross the Verrazzano from Brooklyn and reach most of the island in 30–50 minutes.
The good news is that driveways usually mean easy parking. The thing to plan is the bridge, and the Verrazzano toll goes on your quote, not on a bill at the end. Call or text (212) 555-0142 for a price in under a minute.
Quick answer
How much does a Staten Island move cost?
A Staten Island 2-bedroom usually costs $1,100–$1,900 and a 3-bedroom house $1,800–$3,000. We charge $165 an hour for two movers and a truck with a 3-hour minimum, or we agree a fixed price after a video walkthrough. Houses with basements, garages and steep driveways take longer than apartments, so we often send a third mover to keep the day short. The Verrazzano toll is included in the quote.

Why choose us
Why Staten Island picks Example crews
-
Built for house moves
Garages, basements, sheds and attics need a different plan than a walk-up. We go through it all on a video call first so the right size truck and crew turn up.
-
Bridge toll on the quote
The Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge toll is written into your price before the day, so the number we quote is the number you pay.
-
Steep driveways, done safely
On Todt Hill, Grymes Hill and Emerson Hill the driveways can be steep and winding. We check where the truck can safely stop and bring the right dollies so nothing rolls.
Real reviews
Trusted across Staten Island
They took apart our huge sectional and a glass dining table and put both back together better than the store did. Everything was wrapped in blankets before it left the room.
We got a text at 7:40 saying the crew was ten minutes out, and they rang the bell at 7:52. Our 2-bedroom on the 4th floor was empty by noon, and they still rebuilt the bed frame at the new place before leaving.
They quoted 3 to 4 hours for my studio, it took 3½, and the bill was exactly 3½ hours at the rate they gave me. No stair fee, no fuel charge, no mystery materials line. I’ve moved four times in this city and that’s a first.

Job storyUpright Piano Move: Harlem → Williamsburg
Ruth was moving her family’s upright piano, about 500 pounds and older than she is, from her mother’s Harlem brownstone to her own apartment on the 3rd floor of a Williamsburg walk-up. The pickup meant carrying it down a brownstone stoop; the drop-off was three flights up a narrow stair with one tight turn. Marcus, our crew lead for piano jobs, looked over a video of the Williamsburg stairwell before we quoted, and we agreed a fixed price for the job.
Job story2-Bedroom Walk-Up Move: Park Slope → Hoboken
Mia and her partner were leaving a 4th-floor walk-up in a Park Slope brownstone for a 2-bedroom on the 3rd floor of a Hoboken row house, a few blocks from the PATH. They booked three weeks ahead for the last Saturday in August, one of the busiest moving days of the year, and packed nearly everything themselves. We quoted 7 to 8 hours with 3 movers, plus the tolls, and planned the parking at the Hoboken end before the day.
Job storyStudio Move: Upper West Side → Astoria
Noah messaged us late on a Monday night: his new Astoria lease had started and he needed to be out of his Upper West Side studio by the end of the week. We had a Thursday morning opening. The pickup was a 9th-floor studio in a doorman building with a service elevator; the drop-off was the 2nd floor of a two-family house in Astoria. We quoted 3 to 4 hours at $165 an hour, and it came in at 3½.

How long does a typical Staten Island house move take?
A 2-bedroom usually takes 5–7 hours. A 3-bedroom house with a basement and garage is often a full day with three movers.
Can you move me from Staten Island to New Jersey?
Yes. The Goethals, Bayonne and Outerbridge Crossing bridges put most of North Jersey within easy reach, and we quote those moves the same way, with tolls included.
Can you clear out the basement or garage too?
Yes. Many house moves are also a clear-out, so we can quote junk removal for the basement, garage or shed alongside the move.
