Local movers in Albany, NY

Most of a local move is decided before the truck ever shows up. Parking, stairs, elevator windows and how much is already packed set the shape of the whole day.

In Albany

What this job is like here

Capital Region housing is old, and old housing has narrow turns. Brownstone stairwells in Center Square, third-floor walk-ups off Lark Street, Troy row houses where the front door opens straight onto the sidewalk. We build the plan around the tightest turn in the house.

Worth knowing: Winter moves are normal here. Salt, runners and a shovel ride on the truck from November through March.

Questions

Local Moving FAQ

Two to four weeks is comfortable. End of month, the first weekend of the month and the last weekend in August fill up first. Short notice is still worth a call, because cancellations happen.

Saturday mornings are standard and Sunday we're closed. A weekday move usually gets you a better window and more time on the clock.

Anything flammable, corrosive or under pressure: propane tanks, gasoline, paint thinner, ammunition. Plants and open liquids are a bad idea too. Everything else, just ask.
