What sets us apart

How we handle long distance moving

Our own trucks

Gotham is not a broker or a sub-contractor. We run and own our own fleet of trucks, dispatched from our Brooklyn, NY and Tampa, FL locations.

Weekly service to Florida

We run weekly service from New York to Florida and all points between, and we move households and businesses to every other part of the country too.

Packed for the distance

For a long distance move we pack extra-safe and shrink wrap everything, so your things are protected for the whole trip.

Delivery windows, not dates

Federal rules for interstate moves work in delivery windows rather than exact dates. Ask about the window for your route when you get your quote.

In more detail

How a long distance move works with us

It starts with the quote

Let us know when and where you need to relocate and we will take it from there. You can call, fill in the quote form, schedule a video tour, or upload photos or a video of your inventory. Our movers answer your questions and put the quote together from your answers, so you know where you stand before anything is booked.

We handle moves of any size, for households and for businesses, and we tailor the service to your timetable, your budget and what you actually need.

Packed for the road

A long trip is harder on a load than a drive across town, so we pack for the distance. Our movers pack with care and use specialist services for high-value items. Everything is shrink wrapped so the load is protected for the whole trip, and the packing services and packing supplies come with the move.

  • Packing services, with extra-safe packing for the distance
  • Free packing supplies
  • State of the art equipment for loading and unloading
  • Licensed and insured professional movers

Our own trucks, from Brooklyn and Tampa

Gotham is not a broker or a sub-contractor. We run and own our own fleet, and the trucks are dispatched from our Brooklyn, NY and Tampa, FL locations.

We run weekly service from New York to Florida and all points between, and we move to the rest of the country too.

Delivery windows and the paperwork

Interstate moves run on federal rules, and those rules work in delivery windows rather than exact dates. When you get your quote, ask about the window for your route so you can plan your arrival around it. We are licensed and insured, USDOT 3453789 and MC 1125197, and state regulations require every licensed carrier to carry moving, cargo and liability insurance.

Coverage for a long haul

Every move comes with free Basic coverage, which pays up to 60 cents a pound. That is a low level of protection compared with what most households are worth. Full Value Protection is our most complete plan, and we partner with third-party providers if you need more than that. Settle this before moving day, not after.

Getting ready on your end

  • Decide what goes on the truck and what travels with you: documents, medications, valuables, chargers and a first-night bag
  • Check the access at the new building: stairs, elevator, parking and any move-in rules
  • Tell us about anything oversized, fragile or high in value
  • Keep your phone handy, since the office is open Monday to Sunday, 9am to 9pm

We accept cash, bank checks, company checks and major credit cards. Personal checks are not accepted. Whatever the reason for your move, we are grateful that so many customers come back to us for their next one.

Common Questions

Questions about long distance moving

Move less. The price is based on what you are moving and the distance it travels, so clearing out before you ask for a quote is the biggest saving. Free packing supplies and the gas and tolls being included also keep extras off the bill.

Fifty miles from Brooklyn is usually still inside New York State, which makes it an intrastate move under state rules rather than a federal interstate move. Tell us both addresses and what is moving, and the estimate will show which rules apply.

Make sure the mover is licensed and insured, with USDOT and MC numbers on its paperwork, ask whether it owns its trucks or passes the job to someone else. Ours are USDOT 3453789 and MC 1125197, and we run our own fleet.

It depends on the time of year, the weather, the size of your shipment, the time needed to load and unload, and the direction and distance it is traveling. Federal rules work in delivery windows rather than exact dates, so ask about the window for your route.
