Manhattan pattern
Moving in Manhattan, in practice.
Manhattan jobs match the building — UES and UWS co-ops need freight-elevator booking and terrace rinses on the schedule the board approves; Harlem and Village brownstones get stoop and basement work; Tribeca and Chelsea high-rises run terrace and apartment cleanouts. Walk-ups in Inwood and Washington Heights add cleanout work without elevator help.
Pre-war elevator buildings, walk-ups, brownstones in Harlem and the Village; high-rise condos in Tribeca and Chelsea; co-op towers on the UES and UWS.
Newark to Midtown is roughly 15 to 25 minutes via the Lincoln Tunnel.

Moving questions
Common moving questions.
Do you supply the truck?
No — you book the truck through U-Haul, Penske, Budget, or the POD provider, and we bring the crew. That way you only pay for the rental you actually need, and we never mark up the truck cost. We help you size it correctly before you book if you want a sanity check.
How many crew should I book?
Studio or 1-bedroom: 2 crew, 2 hours each end. Two-bedroom apartment with stairs: 3 crew, 3 hours each end. Three-bedroom house or multi-room office: 3-4 crew, 4-5 hours total. We can recommend a count when you describe the job at booking.
Do you drive the truck for us?
Generally no — most rental contracts only cover drivers on the contract, and adding a driver costs more than it saves. We load and unload at both ends and ride along in a separate vehicle when needed. Ask at booking if you specifically need a driver and we will tell you what fits the contract.
What about the heavy stuff — piano, safe, gun cabinet, hot tub?
Pianos under 350 lbs (uprights, spinets) — yes, with a piano dolly. Grand pianos and safes over 500 lbs — we coordinate a specialty mover for the lift and handle the rest of the move. Tell us at booking; we will not overpromise.
