Our Moving Process

How Shleppers gets you moved, start to finish

Our moving process How Shleppers NYC Professional Movers Get You Moved, Start to Finish New York moves fast — your movers should too, without the guesswork. From the moment you request a quote to the second your last box lands exactly where it belongs, here’s what to expect for your Shleppers moving journey.

Getting Started

Go from your first call to a locked-in move date.

We Build Your Move File

The moment you request a quote, a moving coordinator calls you directly — not a bot, not a form that disappears into the void. They’ll walk through the details of your move so we can recommend the best way to get you an accurate estimate: over the phone, virtually, or with an onsite visit. You’ll always have the final say.

Lock in Your Date

Like your quote? Approve it, head to the booking link we email you, and secure your date with a simple $100 deposit. No paperwork chase — your move is booked.

Meet Your Point Person

Once you’re booked, your Sales Consultant becomes your go-to contact for everything between now and moving day: questions, updates, changes, all of it.

Leading Up to Your Move

The planning and check-ins that happen before your crew ever shows up.

We Keep You in the Loop

You’ll get confirmation, preparation, and insurance emails, plus reminders as your date gets closer. And we’ll go one step further with text reminders and a personal call 1-2 days out. So you don’t ever have to wonder if things are still on track.

The Logistics You Don’t Have to Think About

NYC moves come with NYC-sized logistics. You’ll coordinate directly with your building’s management on their specific requirements and restrictions, and we’re right there with you — advising on the smartest elevator reservation window and handling all parking logistics the moment our trucks arrive.

What We Handle Behind the Scenes

A lot of the hardest work happens before your crew ever knocks on your door. Coordinating parking at every stop along your route, mapping out the smoothest logistics across the city, and lining up shuttle service whenever your building or block calls for it. It’s the planning most customers never see.

On Moving Day

From your old place to your new one, wrapped and placed with care.

Loading Up

Your Foreman starts with a full walkthrough, confirming every detail matches your contract before a single box moves. Everything checks out? Contracts get signed and the crew gets to work. Need an adjustment on the spot? We’ll talk through pricing and get your sign-off first. From there, your belongings are wrapped, protected, and disassembled wherever needed.

Moving In

At your new place, your Foreman confirms everything’s ready to unload, then it’s go time. Items come off the truck, get unwrapped, reassembled where needed, and placed exactly where you want them. Before the crew heads out, your Foreman walks the space with you one more time to make sure everything’s exactly where and how it should be.
