Straight answer
From Astoria apartments to family homes further out.
Gotham Moving Systems moves apartments and houses across Queens from its Brooklyn office on Greene Avenue, and we know the drive up and around the streets of Queens.
Queens moves range from apartment buildings with the same certificate of insurance and elevator rules as Manhattan to houses with driveways and garages. Our price is based on what you are moving and how far it travels, with transportation, gas and tolls included.

Moving in Queens
What is different about a Queens move
Apartments in the west
Astoria, Sunnyside and Jackson Heights are apartment territory, with the same certificate of insurance and elevator rules as the rest of the city.
Houses further east
Further out in the borough, toward Flushing and beyond, you are into houses, driveways and garages: easier access, more volume, and a longer day.
Leaving the city for more room
A move from a smaller apartment in Manhattan or Brooklyn to a bigger place in Queens usually has more to move than people expect. Ask for an in-home estimate.

Moving in Queens, in more detail
Queens is two moves in one borough: apartments in the west, houses as you go east.
Western Queens: apartments
Astoria, Sunnyside and Jackson Heights are apartment territory. Expect the same certificate of insurance and elevator booking rules you find in the rest of the city, and the same questions about stairs where a building has no elevator. A studio move in Astoria is a small, quick job, and we quote it as one.
Eastern Queens: houses and driveways
Further east, around Flushing, you move into houses, driveways and garages. Access is usually easier than in the city, but there is more to move and the day is longer. A four-bedroom house is a very different job from a one-bedroom, and it is quoted on what is actually moving.
Do not forget the garage, the basement and the attic. That is where the volume hides, and an estimate that leaves them out will not hold.
We know the drive
We know the drive up and around the streets of Queens as well as we know climbing a five-floor walk-up in Manhattan. Tell us both addresses and we plan the route and the length of the day around them.
Leaving a smaller place for a bigger one
Plenty of Queens moves are people leaving a smaller apartment in Manhattan or Brooklyn for more room. There is usually more to move than people expect, because a bigger place gets filled. An in-home estimate from one of our moving consultants is the best way to see it before you commit.
Quotes without a visit
If it is easier, schedule a video tour, or upload photos or a video of your inventory, and we can quote the move from that. Astoria, Sunnyside, Flushing and Jackson Heights are covered the same way.
Quick answers for Queens
Do you move from Queens to Brooklyn or Manhattan?
Yes. Both are local moves from our Brooklyn base. Tell us the two addresses and the floor at each.
Can you pack a whole house for me?
Yes. Our packing and unpacking service can take the entire job, or just the kitchen and the fragile pieces. A house has far more to box than an apartment, so it is worth considering.
Do you store things between homes?
Yes. We have climate-controlled, secure storage for when your dates do not line up.
