MOVING HACKS: Why Moving to NYC is Hard & What You Can Do About It

Moving to NYC can be much more complex than moving to other cities around the US. Our nonstop, hustle and bustle, fast-paced lifestyle doesn’t leave much room for a calm and timely move-in day. Metro buses hurling down the Avenues, brisk-walking professionals with deadlines to meet and places to go, and the occasional impromptu street performance or “flash mob” are just a few of the things that make the Big Apple one of the greatest cities in the world. Unfortunately, the “New York State of Mind” also makes this city very difficult to move into… unless you call Shleppers Moving & Storage.

Moving Among “The New York State of Mind”

As New York City’s top relocation company, Shleppers Moving & Storage is bursting at the seams with seasoned, trustworthy moving professionals who know “The City that Never Sleeps” like the back of their hands. Our moving experts know all the ins, outs, ups and downs of NYC living—such as traffic patterns, parking joints, and other moving best practices.

SOLVED: NYC Moving Dilemmas

Chances are, if you’re moving into NYC for the first time, you’ve most likely done your research on transportation and found that it’s best advised to leave your vehicle behind. Even though most New Yorker’s don’t own a car, Manhattan traffic is still ridiculously congested. Trying to weave your way in and out of the Avenues in a rented moving van on your own is a well-known NYC “no-no.” Allow Shleppers to do the navigating for you while you sit back and soak in the sights and sounds of your new city.

Another reason that moving to NYC can be difficult is the considerably low square footage you’ll be getting for your dollar. Living in NYC offers endless opportunities — but the price to pay for countless memories and experiences is most likely downsizing your living space. Luckily, Shleppers solves this NYC dilemma by providing short and long-term storage solutions for both personal and business needs! We’ll pick your belongings up, store them, and charge a simple monthly service fee with zero worries or hassles on your end!
