Ruslan helped make our move from Philadelphia to NYC very smooth. In NYC, our apartment is a fifth floor walk up: Ruslan, Vlad, and co. moved boxes, suitcases, a bookcase, our couch...and more up swiftly and with extreme care. A very easy, pleasant experience from booking to completion, and priced better than the bigger corporations handling such moves. Thanks WellKnown Moving!

About New York City

New York City is located on the East Coast, near New Jersey and Connecticut. It has many neighborhoods, large businesses, and lots to do. New York City needs no introduction. Neighborhoods like Midtown and the Financial District attract big companies. Soho and Greenwich Village are known for their shopping, restaurants, and nightlife. Central Park and other attractions add to the city's appeal. The schools here are good, and there are both public (e.g., Stuyvesant High School) and private schools (e.g., Trinity School, The Brearley School). There is always something going on in the city.

But living in New York City has its notable negatives as well. The quality of public services is not the best. Traffic jams at major intersections and highways are a known problem in the city, and the streets and subways are perpetually crowded. Housing prices are among the highest in the United States. Compared to New York City, Philadelphia has a slower, more relaxed pace of life and more affordable housing. There aren't as many major attractions, but there is much less hustle and bustle. Outside the city, in the suburbs like Westchester, Long Island and parts of New Jersey, there is more space and it's quieter, but for those who want it, it's easy to get to New York City.

Plan and Customize Your Move

We develop a customized long-distance moving plan and determine the timing of the move. At this stage you need to decide whether you are doing the packing yourself or using our professional packing service. If you need additional services or special pricing, we'll find out during the call.

Loading and Transportation

On the appointed day and time, we arrive at the location in Philadelphia. If a packing service has been arranged, we carry out the packing on the same day or a day or several days in advance of the move. We load all the things into the truck, wrapping and disassembling the furniture beforehand. The presence of the customer during this process is highly desirable.

Arrange On-Time Delivery & Unpacking

Then we move straight to the final location in New York City or make a stop at the storage, if this service has been purchased. We carefully unload all your belongings, leave them in the pre-agreed locations and collect the furniture. If arranged, we help unpack all items.

Post-Move Support

Afterward, we are available to provide counseling and help with any questions you may have after the move. If you find your belongings missing or damaged, please contact us as soon as possible. We will solve everything!

Choose the option that suits your budget and schedule!

You should book your move in NYC with Wellknown 4 weeks in advance if we're talking about the season: summer. But, of course, it's best to contact us and check our schedule. For the best moving price, we recommend moving during off-peak times: winter and early spring. If we are talking about days of the week, aim to choose the middle of the week.

Moving to NYC with us means that your moving plan will include all the costs required by the movers. You won't have to pay separately for the truck, tools, assembling or disassembling furniture, paying separately for moving, for example, heavy items, etc. Additional services also include everything. However, there is flexibility here: for example, you don't have to buy the packing materials from us, but provide them to us. Or we can only pack individual items. Explore the pricing page for more information.

Make a list of special items that movers need to pay attention to. First of all, these are heavy items (e.g. a piano). We need to know at least the approximate dimensions and weight. In the second place are fragile and valuable items, antiques, paintings, 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.

Most Philadelphia moving companies, including Wellknown Moving, have a list of items that they will not transport for legal and safety reasons. These are primarily hazardous materials, perishables, plants, weapons, and valuables (cash or documents). You can get a complete list from your manager when you call.
