New York moving companies at a glance

We found 178 moving companies based in the New York area that are registered with FMCSA to carry household goods, have updated their registration in the last three years and run at least one truck. Together they report 822 trucks.

  • 127 hold active interstate household-goods authority, so they can legally carry a move to another state.
  • 46 are registered for moves within New York only.
  • 90 have been on the USDOT register for 10 years or more. The median is 11 years. The longest-registered, 1961, was added in 1974.
  • 31 run five or more trucks. Larger fleets usually have more scheduling flexibility, but size alone says nothing about quality.

Where they're based: Brooklyn (57), New York (25), Bronx (25), Staten Island (13), Yonkers (9), Long Island City (7), Astoria (7), Fresh Meadows (6), New Rochelle (4), Mount Vernon (4).

How companies are listed

Listings come from the FMCSA Company Census File, the federal register of companies with a USDOT number (data as of 2026-11-15). We include active registrations that list household goods as cargo, have a moving-related business name, a registration updated within three years, and at least one truck. Order is by fleet size by default. We don't accept payment for placement on this list. If we ever show sponsored companies, they will be clearly labelled. A listing is not an endorsement, and the register doesn't include customer reviews or prices. Report an error or request a correction.

How to choose a mover in New York

  1. Moving to another state? Use the Interstate filter above and check the company's FMCSA record.
  2. Moving within New York? Check the state license too. See below.
  3. Get at least three written estimates after a video or in-home survey.
  4. Compare valuation coverage, the type of estimate and the delivery window, not just the price.
  5. Avoid companies that ask for a large deposit or quote without seeing your belongings. Scam red flags.

Local moving considerations in New York

Building requirements

Many co-ops, condos and managed rentals require a certificate of insurance (COI) from your mover naming the building, a reserved freight elevator and moves only on weekdays within set hours. Ask your building manager for the requirements in writing and send them to every mover you get a quote from.

Walk-ups and long carries

Movers usually price stairs, long walks from the truck and narrow staircases into the estimate. Tell them the floor number, whether there is an elevator and how far the truck can park from the door.

Parking and trucks

Curb space is scarce and large trucks are restricted on many parkways. Ask how the mover handles parking, whether a smaller truck or shuttle is needed, and who pays any parking tickets.

Timing

The end and start of each month are the busiest days because of lease cycles, and summer is the peak season. Mid-month weekdays are usually easier to book.

Licensing: checking a New York mover

New York requires movers that carry household goods within the state to hold authority from the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT). Ask the mover for its NYSDOT number and confirm it with NYSDOT. For moves to another state, check the USDOT number with FMCSA.

For a move to another state, check the USDOT number on FMCSA. Step-by-step guide.

Frequently asked questions

Do New York movers need a license?

Yes. Movers carrying household goods within New York State need authority from NYSDOT, and movers crossing state lines need FMCSA registration and a USDOT number with interstate household goods authority.

Why do NYC moves cost more?

Access. Stairs, elevator bookings, longer carries, tolls and parking all add labor time, and local moves are usually charged by the hour.

How many moving companies are there in New York?

Our directory lists 178 companies based in the New York area that are registered with FMCSA for household goods, with a current registration and at least one truck (FMCSA data as of 2026-11-15). 127 of them hold active interstate authority.

How do I know if a New York mover is legitimate?

Look it up by USDOT number on FMCSA. Each listing above links to its FMCSA record. For moves within New York, also check the state license. Get a written estimate and avoid large upfront deposits.
