      Cost of Moving Long Distance

      How much does a long-distance move in New York cost? Well, the cost varies depending on which company you hire and other factors such as:

      • Number of floors and if there's an elevator or no elevator,
      • The size of your home,
      • Size of the moving truck and,
      • Distance between the two addresses.

      On average, most companies charge a fixed rate of approximately $500 for a single heavy-duty move cross country and $140 per hour for a single long-distance commercial or residential move.

      However, at High Stream Moving, we charge you $350, which is usually the starting rate for a single long-distance move. However, for full-service long-distance moves, you can expect to pay between $1500 and $1700.

      Also, the road situation in New York and New York State may impact the moving costs. For example, according to research, 24% of major roads in New York, such as Highways, are in poor condition, and only 40% are in good condition. So if the roads are not in fair or good condition, the cost of moving may be slightly high.

        FAQs

        Long distance moving costs from New York vary based on distance and volume. At High Stream Moving, cross country moves start at $350. Full-service relocations typically range from $1,500 to $7,000 depending on your move size and destination. For example, moves from NYC to California average $4,500-$6,500, while relocations to Florida or Texas range from $2,500-$4,500. We calculate costs by cubic feet rather than weight, which often results in more predictable and lower pricing. Call (800) 430-1537 for a free, accurate quote for your specific move.
        Transit times for long distance moves from New York depend on your destination. Typical delivery timeframes include: NYC to California (Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego) takes 5-7 business days; NYC to Florida (Miami, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale) takes 3-5 business days; NYC to Texas (Dallas, Houston, Austin) takes 4-6 business days; NYC to Chicago, Illinois takes 2-3 business days; NYC to Pennsylvania, New Jersey, or Connecticut takes 1-2 business days. These are estimates for standard semi-trailer truck transport. Contact us to discuss your specific timeline needs.
        Federal regulations prohibit moving companies from transporting hazardous materials during interstate moves. Items we cannot transport include: flammable materials (propane tanks, gas cans, lighter fluid, charcoal), explosive materials (ammunition, fireworks, matches), corrosive substances (acids, batteries, cleaning chemicals), perishable food items for long distance transport, and plants depending on state regulations. Pets must travel separately. High Stream Moving can advise on proper disposal, recycling, or alternative transportation options for restricted items.
        Yes, someone must be present during both pickup in New York and delivery at your destination. This person should be authorized to sign the inventory list, Bill of Lading, and delivery receipt. If you cannot be present personally, you can designate a representative such as a friend, family member, or real estate agent to act on your behalf. For apartment buildings in Manhattan, Brooklyn, or Queens, you'll also need to coordinate elevator reservations and building access with your property manager in advance.
        We recommend booking your cross country move at least 4-6 weeks in advance, especially during peak moving season from May through September. This ensures truck availability and allows proper time for planning, packing, and logistics coordination. However, High Stream Moving can accommodate last-minute relocations with as little as 1-2 weeks notice depending on truck availability and your destination. For the best selection of moving dates and pricing, call (800) 430-1537 as early as possible to check availability.
        Yes, you can pack your own items to reduce your moving costs. If you choose DIY packing, High Stream Moving can provide cardboard boxes, bubble wrap, packing tape, and other packaging materials. However, please note that if you pack items yourself, our insurance coverage may be limited for those items. For valuable belongings such as art, electronics, piano, antiques, and fragile items, we strongly recommend our professional packing services to ensure proper protection during long distance transport.
        Yes, we provide both short-term and long-term storage solutions for cross country moves. Our climate-controlled storage facilities are secure with 24/7 monitoring, ideal when your new home isn't ready or you need temporary storage between moves. We offer 1 month of free storage with qualifying long distance moves. Storage is particularly useful when moving from NYC apartments to homes in California, Florida, Texas, or other states where closing dates don't align perfectly. All stored items are fully insured and inventoried.
        High Stream Moving uses multiple layers of protection for furniture during cross country transport. Large furniture pieces like beds, tables, and dressers are carefully disassembled. All furniture is wrapped in thick moving blankets and secured. We use cardboard corners for extra protection on furniture edges. Custom crating is available for valuable antiques, art, or delicate items. Strategic placement in the semi-trailer truck prevents shifting during transit across states. Climate control is available for temperature-sensitive items. All furniture is reassembled at your destination and placed in your desired rooms.
        Preparing for a cross country move from New York City requires several steps. First, book your moving company 4-6 weeks in advance. Contact your building management to reserve the service elevator and obtain any required certificates. Arrange truck parking permits with NYC DOT if needed for your street. Declutter by donating, selling, or recycling items you don't need to reduce moving costs. Start packing with off-season items first, labeling all boxes clearly with contents and destination room. Keep valuables, medications, and important documents with you during travel. Update your address with USPS, utilities, banks, and subscriptions. Conduct a final walkthrough of all closets, cabinets, and storage areas before the movers leave.
