Thanks to Alex, Anvar, Artem and Ilya our move went off without a hitch. They were professional and efficient. What hard workers! I highly recommend this company in making your move!
I cannot recommend WellKnown enough. The team arrived early, packed quickly, and graciously moved all of my things into my new 5th floor walkup without a single complaint.

Experienced and Professional Movers from Charlotte to New York
Our professional movers regularly handle long-distance moves along major highways such as I-77, I-81, and I-95, allowing us to stay on schedule. We serve all residential areas in Charlotte and New York, from city neighborhoods to suburbs and high-rise buildings. Our team takes into account all the requirements for moving in New York, including strict parking regulations, building access, elevator reservations, and the need for Certificates of Insurance (COI) required by many residential complexes. We serve all five boroughs—Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island—as well as the surrounding metropolitan areas.
Every move is supervised by an experienced foreman with at least three years of experience specializing in long-distance moves. Our staff is professionally trained in packing, loading, and unloading. Our trucks are fully equipped with furniture blankets, straps, dollies, and protective materials to ensure the safe transport of furniture, fragile items, and valuables.
Customized Moving Services
Before the move, our coordinators contact you to discuss all the details, including the volume of belongings, packing needs, storage requirements, and delivery preferences. Based on this information, we assemble the appropriate crew and select the necessary equipment to make your move efficient and comfortable.
Flat-Rate and Transparent Pricing
We operate on a flat-rate pricing system, which means that factors such as stairs or the distance to the truck will not affect the final cost. The price may change only if you need to move particularly complex or heavy items, such as pianos, safes, or large appliances. A deposit is required to book your moving date, which is fully refundable if canceled at least two weeks in advance.
About New York
New York is a major city that needs little introduction. It is known for its iconic skyline and vibrant cultural scene. Moreover, New York’s diversity allows you to find housing that suits any lifestyle. You can live in the skyscrapers of Manhattan or in a historic townhouse in Brooklyn—you’ll always find a comfortable option.
People most often move to Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, as well as nearby areas such as Jersey City, each of which has its own living conditions and transportation accessibility.
Like any major city, New York has its logistical challenges: heavy traffic, limited parking, narrow streets, and strict building regulations. However, with proper planning and experience, these challenges can be easily overcome, ensuring a smooth and timely move.

BEWARE!!>.I believe that this company is an AI-generated website wrapper, functioning like Uber. They contract your move out to inexperienced people. Two people showed up in a U-Haul truck much too small for our move. The move was severely delayed, far beyond our quote, because they were unprofessional and showed up with inadequate equipment, causing the price to skyrocket. They showed no care for our furniture, damaging almost every single piece we owned, some beyond repair. They repeatedly cursed and screamed in a different language during the move. Once they left, we filed an insurance claim right away for the extensive damage to our property and to both buildings. It took two weeks to even get instructions from them on the claim. It has now been forty days of silence. We cannot get written acknowledgment of the claim.
Very professional service, timely and carefully executed work. Will definitely recommend
Elvin and his team moved us from the Houston area to the Dallas area. They were timely and professional throughout the process. They wrapped and protected our furniture better than movers I’ve used in the past. Highly recommend WellKnown Moving Company.
Great moving service. The actual movers crew were very efficient and professional. Though the scheduling team didnt plan properly to allow them enough time with the moves and so they were many hours late, the actual crew was amazing. The fact that they had a bigger move job in the morning and it delayed them before my move they didn't show that when helping with my move. Thanks to the crew so much! The office and scheduling team needs to be better though. Because my move window was for three hours and I waited over half that time before calling to see when they were coming and the office was not even sure. They should be checking with the crew and if behind schedule, which happens all the time with moves so it's understandable, but you need to inform your clients and customers. You cant just say i dont know and not be apologetic or offer to get it sorted. However again the crew was great and i highly recommend and will use them again probably for my next move.
I moved from Houston to San Antonio and it was a good move. They delivered everything safely and on time. Would recommend them.
Great services and staff. Helped me move between states from MA to NY with no issues, and were very helpful in packing up my furniture, nothing was damaged and everything went very smoothly. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for moving services!
Great experience today with Stan and the crew. They took great care of my stuff and managed to get everything from Dallas to Houston same day. 5 stars easy recommendation.
Alex and his team did a great job of moving us from one house to another, and also stopping to pick up stuff from a storage unit. They were efficient, and wrapped all the furniture to where we were not worried about it getting damaged. I will definitely use them again soon!

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers about cost, timing, and what New York City is actually like once the truck is unloaded. No fine print games.
What additional costs does Wellknown have?
Moving to NYC with us ensures that your moving plan includes all the essential costs required by the movers. There's no need to worry about separate charges for the truck, tools, furniture assembly or disassembly, or even moving heavy items – it's all covered. We also offer flexibility with additional services: you can supply your own packing materials, or we can provide them. Plus, if you prefer, we can handle packing for specific items only. Visit our pricing page to learn more!
What do I need to do before calling Wellknown?
Make a list of special items (or just memorize them) that movers need to pay attention to. First of all, these are heavy items (e.g. a piano, a bed, a big dresser). We need to know at least the approximate dimensions and weight. In the second place are fragile and valuable items, antiques, paintings, TV set, etc. This will help us to be better prepared. We also recommend that you clearly define whether you need additional services. If you are not sure yet, we will be happy to advise you.
Is it rude not to tip movers?
Although tipping movers isn’t mandatory in the U.S., it’s always appreciated if you’re satisfied with the move. Movers will be very pleased to receive a tip after a physically demanding job. However, it’s also perfectly acceptable to reduce the tip or not leave one at all if you’re dissatisfied.
What is the cheapest way to move to NYC?
It might seem like the cheapest way to move to New York City is to do it entirely on your own. But keep in mind that this is physically demanding, time-consuming, and usually comes with unexpected costs. You can hire a moving company to streamline the process and ensure a more reliable move. You can also choose less busy dates to save money; for example, moving during the middle of the week is always cheaper.
Is $15,000 enough to move to New York?
$15,000 will be enough for your move if you choose affordable housing, since moving costs aren’t limited to the move itself—you’ll also need to pay a security deposit for your new place or a broker’s commission. Overall, if you keep your initial expenses under control, $15,000 will be enough for you to settle into your new home comfortably.
