New York intrastate movers handle any move that starts and ends inside New York State — Buffalo to Brooklyn, Kingston to Albany, Poughkeepsie to Plattsburgh, the Bronx to Binghamton. 845 Move Now is a NYSDOT-authorized and USDOT-registered New York intrastate moving company based in New Paltz, serving the entire state with a W-2 crew, company-owned trucks, and transparent pricing — hourly or flat-rate.
If your move crosses county lines but stays inside New York, it's an intrastate move. That includes Hudson Valley to NYC relocations, Upstate to Long Island transfers, Rochester to Syracuse moves, Capital Region shuffles, and everything in between. Intrastate movers in New York are regulated by the NYSDOT and must carry active authority — we do, and our license number is publicly verifiable.
Homeowners, renters, and small businesses moving one to five bedrooms (or a comparable office) anywhere inside New York. Single-day and two-day moves are our specialty. We're not a broker — every crew that shows up works for 845 Move Now.
Our transparent rate includes the truck, two uniformed movers, pads, shrink wrap, and basic liability coverage. No fuel surcharges. No stair fees. No weekend premiums. Transparent estimate before the truck leaves our yard, and the final invoice matches what we quoted.
Every move is staffed by our own W-2 movers. No third-party dispatch, no day-of truck swaps, no surprise handoffs to a company you’ve never heard of.
Predictable flat rates for longer runs across New York State. Transparent hourly billing for local moves — rounded to the quarter-hour, never inflated.
Fully authorized intrastate carrier in New York, federally registered, and backed by a $1M liability policy. We’ll show you the numbers before you book.
If your move starts and ends inside New York State, we handle it. Below are the regions our intrastate movers work in most often — but any ZIP inside NY is fair game. Pair it with our packing services, local moves, or cross-country relocations if you're heading out of state. Moving somewhere not listed? Call us. If it's in New York, we'll quote it.

Pick your home size and rough route. We’ll show you a ballpark range based on how we actually quote moves — roundtrip from our New Paltz hub, two movers on the truck, billed hourly or at a flat rate depending on the move. Tight, honest, no “call for pricing.”
Most New York intrastate movers will not give you a real price until you are on the phone for twenty minutes. We think the opposite.
Tight, public ballparks up front mean fewer surprises later. The estimator below reflects how real New York intrastate movers build a quote — hourly or flat-rate, rounded to a realistic range.
An intrastate move shouldn’t be mysterious. Here’s exactly how it goes when you book with us — refined across years of running moves the Freedman way.
You reach out. We ask the questions a real mover asks — bedrooms, flights of stairs, parking, the couch that never fits through the door. Usually ten minutes on the phone, sometimes a free video walkthrough for larger homes.
You get it in writing, itemized. A flat rate for longer runs, an honest hourly range for local moves, and a cap on what the bill can reach. No estimates that mysteriously double on move day.
A small deposit holds the date and the truck. If you ordered packing, we show up the day before with boxes, paper, tape, and a plan. If you’re packing yourself, we drop materials at cost.
Same crew start to finish — uniformed, on time, pads and runners down before they touch a piece of furniture. Point-to-point transport, usually same-day delivery anywhere within the Hudson Valley, next-day for most of New York State.
We unload, reassemble anything we disassembled, and don’t leave until you’ve walked the rooms and signed off. Balance due only after you approve the work. That’s the whole thing.
A common industry trick: quote low, then charge for every pad, every mattress bag, every flight of stairs. That’s not how we run. Here’s what’s already built into the number on your quote.
Full-service load and unload
A dedicated crew handles every lift, from curb to the exact room you want the box in.
Furniture disassembly & reassembly
Beds, tables, and desks come apart at origin and go back together at destination. Hardware stays bagged and labeled.
Pads, blankets, shrink-wrap, mattress bags
Unlimited protection, included. No pad rental fees. Your mattresses don’t ride naked.
Cargo & liability insurance
Standard coverage on every New York intrastate job. $1M general liability policy on every crew.
Stairs, walk-ups, and long carries
No surprise fees for flights of stairs, no “long carry” charge because the truck couldn’t park at the door.
Same-day delivery (most Hudson Valley moves)
Point-to-point transport. One- to two-day delivery on longer runs across New York State.
W-2 uniformed crew
Background-checked, full-time movers who actually work here. No day hires, no subcontractors.
Photo inventory
Every piece documented before the truck closes. Peace of mind for claims that almost never happen.
Certificates of insurance
Free COI for any NYC doorman building, HOA, or co-op that needs one. Usually delivered within 24 hours.
A written, itemized bill
You sign off before we leave. The total you saw on the quote is the total you pay.
Every legitimate New York intrastate moving company is required to hold active NYSDOT authority. You can verify us in 30 seconds — here are the numbers and the links.
These are customers of ours — not testimonials we wrote for ourselves. Every review on Google, Yelp, and the BBB is public and verifiable. We’ve earned our 4.8 average one move at a time.
Moved from Poughkeepsie to Buffalo — 380 miles across the state. The flat-rate quote was exactly what showed on the invoice. Zero surprises, furniture arrived unscratched, and the crew finished faster than promised.
We booked the hourly rate for our Kingston-to-Albany move and it saved us hundreds vs. a flat quote for a shorter run. Licensed, insured, and communicated the whole way. Best New York intrastate movers we’ve used.
Brooklyn to Ithaca with a piano, an aquarium, and a 3-bedroom of stuff. They crated the piano, packed the glass, and delivered 2 days later exactly as quoted. Professional from call to final walkthrough.
Tell us where you're moving from, where you're headed, and when. We'll send back a written flat-rate estimate the same day — no deposit, no pressure, no broker handoff. Every move is handled by our own NYSDOT-licensed W-2 crew. Need related services? Browse our commercial moving services, school & university movers, or full Hudson Valley service area.

An intrastate move is any relocation that starts and ends inside New York State — Poughkeepsie to Buffalo, NYC to Albany, or Kingston to Rochester. It’s different from a local move (typically under 50 miles) and from an interstate move that crosses state lines.
New York intrastate movers must hold active NYSDOT authority. 845 Move Now maintains that authority along with full FMCSA registration.
Intrastate moves can be billed two ways: on an hourly rate (best for shorter, straightforward runs under ~100 miles) or as a flat-rate quote (best for longer runs across the state or moves with lots of variables).
Your final number depends on home size, mileage, stair access, and add-ons like packing or crating. Call (845) 668-3669 for a free 60-second quote.
Hourly pricing varies by truck size, crew size, season, and region. NYC and Long Island rates run higher than Hudson Valley or Upstate rates because of parking, high-rise access, and traffic.
Our quote includes the truck, fuel, liability coverage, moving equipment (dollies, blankets, straps), and a uniformed W-2 crew. Ask for a written estimate before booking any NY intrastate mover.
Yes, a secure deposit reserves your date, crew, and truck. The balance is due after your NY intrastate move is completed and you sign off. We never ask for cash, and you’ll never be surprised at delivery.
For shorter NY intrastate moves (under ~100 miles with a straightforward scope), hourly pricing usually comes out cheaper. You pay only for the time the crew actually works.
For longer runs, tight-timing moves, or jobs with many variables, a flat-rate quote gives you a guaranteed price and zero surprises. We’ll tell you honestly which model fits your move.
A binding estimate locks in a fixed price based on a detailed inventory — best when your inventory is stable and you want zero surprises. A non-binding estimate gives a projected range that’s recalculated on move day if your inventory grows or shrinks.
We offer both. Most NY intrastate customers choose binding flat-rate for peace of mind.
No. Local, intrastate, interstate, and international moving services provided by household movers are not subject to New York State sales tax under Tax Bulletin ST-605. Specialty services like storage may have different rules.
Most New York intrastate moves deliver in 1–2 days from pickup. We run point-to-point — your goods stay on one truck with the same crew from origin to destination. No warehouse transfers, no shared loads, no waiting on other customers.
Yes. 845 Move Now carries active NYSDOT authority T-40175 (required for all intrastate moves in New York), USDOT registration 4159312, $1 million general liability coverage, workers’ compensation, and cargo coverage on every move. Certificates available on request.
Ask for the company’s NYSDOT certificate number and USDOT number, then look them up directly on the FMCSA SAFER database and the NYS DOT Motor Carrier Search. Any legitimate New York intrastate mover will hand over those numbers without hesitation.
Yes. Full-service packing is available as an add-on — our crew brings unlimited boxes, paper, bubble wrap, and tape, then wraps and labels every room. Partial packing (kitchens, art, electronics only) and unpacking on the other end are also available.
Our New York intrastate movers cover the entire Empire State: the Hudson Valley (our home base in New Paltz), NYC, Long Island, Westchester, the Capital Region, Central NY, Western NY, and the North Country. If it starts and ends in New York, we move it.
Yes. Our New York intrastate movers handle pianos (upright and grand), pool tables, gun safes, grandfather clocks, fine art, and antiques. Specialty pieces are quoted individually — we bring the right equipment and crew size for the job.
Every NY intrastate move includes standard cargo coverage at no extra charge. Full-value replacement coverage is available as an upgrade. If something is damaged, you file a claim with photos and we handle it directly — no third-party adjuster runaround.
No. Federal regulations (49 CFR 375.403) and NYSDOT rules prohibit a carrier from refusing delivery because of a price dispute. If any mover tries this, report them to NYSDOT and FMCSA immediately. We never operate that way — your price is the price.
Book 3–4 weeks ahead during peak season (May through September) and 1–2 weeks ahead in off-peak months. Longer New York intrastate routes and weekend dates fill first. For last-minute moves, call (845) 668-3669 — we often have flexibility within 72 hours.
For small moves under one bedroom, a portable container (PODS, U-Pack) plus help loading is typically the cheapest option. For full households, a licensed New York intrastate mover at a transparent hourly rate is usually a better value.
Avoid the cheapest quote you find — unlicensed movers have no recourse if anything goes wrong. Always verify NYSDOT authority first.
Yes. Most NYC apartment and condo buildings require a Certificate of Insurance naming the building management as additional insured. We issue COIs at no charge — just send us the building’s requirements when you book and we handle the paperwork.
Yes. On long New York intrastate runs, your dedicated coordinator sends progress updates at pickup, en route, and at delivery. Short runs don’t need tracking — the same crew stays with your truck the entire move.
Three things. First, we own our trucks and employ full-time W-2 crews — no day-hire labor, no shared loads, no subcontractors.
Second, we’re actively licensed: NYSDOT authorized, USDOT registered, and $1M liability insured with all paperwork available on request. Third, our pricing is transparent — hourly or flat-rate, quoted in writing before we load a single box.
