I Like To Move It Movers moves homes and apartments in Cohoes, NY, from the converted mill lofts at Harmony Mills to the older worker housing on the narrow streets around Remsen Street.

Local detail

Moving in Cohoes

Cohoes sits where the Mohawk meets the Hudson and its housing runs to two extremes. The old mill buildings have been converted into loft apartments, which means freight elevators, building rules and a certificate of insurance before anyone touches a door. Everything around them is nineteenth-century worker housing on narrow streets, where the elevator is a staircase and the loading dock is the curb.

What should you plan for in a Cohoes mill loft?

The building rules. Converted mills like Harmony Mills are managed apartment buildings, and they usually want a certificate of insurance naming the owner, a reserved elevator and a set loading time. Ask the office for their requirements as soon as you have a date, and send them to us. Long corridors between the elevator and the unit also add carry time, so mention where the unit is.

What about the older Cohoes houses?

Much of Cohoes is nineteenth-century housing on narrow streets with no off-street parking. The truck loads from the curb, the staircase is steep and often turns, and a sofa that fit the last apartment may not fit this one. Measure the tightest turn and send us a photo.
