We were in a unique situation where our previous movers ran out of time and had to leave after unloading all of our stuff at the new apartment. Thankfully, Never Tired Movers was available for the same day. Given our weird situation, I had to call them a few times to change the number of movers and such. They were very understanding about the whole situation. The whole thing went very smoothly and everyone was very kind! I would highly recommend them.

Real Advice from Queens Movers

We asked local movers about what you should know about moving in Queens. (They’re really nice!)

"Best advice we can give is to find movers who will work you THROUGH your move. Not guys who are looking to be done with you. Moving in NYC has ALOT of variables. And it is a great resource to find a company like ours who will commit to helping you FINISH your move completely!"

Just-IN Time Movers Profile Image - Just-IN Time Movers

"When driving in NYC, take expressways and not parkways. If you are driving a commercial truck then parkways are prohibited and can result in a ticket and fine. "

Teleport Movers - NY Profile Image - Teleport Movers - NY

"If you are moving into Manhattan or Brooklyn, please check with your building management on their guidelines. Some only want professional movers, others will allow you to move items yourself, and most require a Certificate Of Insurance (COI) to be produced by the mover."

Major Neighborhoods in Queens

Across the East River from Manhattan lies Queens, the largest borough in New York. It's popular with professionals and families alike, partly because it's home to many of the city's biggest attractions, like Citi Field where the Mets play. Or the famous Flushing Meadows Corona Park, which hosts the annual U.S. Open tennis tournament. But the neighborhood isn't just sightseeing — Queens is named one of the most diverse areas in the world. It has dozens of different neighborhoods and cultures (and all the food and art that come with it!). If you’re planning to join one of these communities, or are here to attend St. John’s University, check out our list of movers in Queens to find a professional familiar with this busy part of the Big Apple.

Astoria

Astoria is a community-centric neighborhood where you're absolutely spoiled for choice when it comes to dining. There are a ton of great Greek, Italian, and Mexican restaurants, along with a part of Steinway Street called Little Egypt that features cultural shops and eateries. If you're a fan of craft beer, then the family-run Bier & Cheese Collective will quickly become a favorite. Astoria Park features the oldest and largest city pool in the Big Apple for those muggy New York summers. But the best part of the neighborhood might be how you don't need the subway to head over to Manhattan. Just take the N.Y.C. Ferry for a nice ride across the East River! Before you move in, check out our list of movers in Queens, New York, to find a professional familiar with the area.

Long Island City

Long Island City is a former industrial center now filled with modern high-rises and plenty of amenities. Art aficionados will especially love living here thanks to its many amazing galleries and MoMA PS1, which offers ever-changing modern art exhibits. Locals and visitors alike love to hang out at Gantry Plaza State Park, a green space with unparalleled views of the Manhattan skyline. And you really can't beat the neighborhood's fresh food! Visit LIC Market for a farm-to-table menu or Hibinio to try their sushi and tofu made in-house.

The two movers arrived on time (actually a little bit early). They were contracted for 2 hours, but they completed everything I asked them to do in about an hour. They were respectful and even adjusted the way they loaded the pod based on my feedback along the way. I will definitely plan to use them again when I need to unload!

Courtney and Eric were a tremendous help and were very efficient and careful with our things. They arrived early and worked very hard to get everything moved in a third of the time we booked. I highly recommend using promove for your moving needs!

Leo and Kev were wonderful helpers. They were caught in traffic but kept me totally informed about when they would arrive. Once they came, they were very professional, polite and got the job done quickly and efficiently. I would definitely recommend them to other people that need helpers. They were in good moods and were pleasant the whole time with the help that we needed.

Excellent team. We could not have done this move with out them. They even helped with some wrapping and preparing for transport that they were not originally asked to do.

My first time moving, and was surprised on the efficiency, and collaboration shown by movers Seth and Mohammed, who showed professionalism and care on objects been moved, and not flinching at all when we had forgotten to mention another piece also going into the pod. Hope everyone that hires On-Time Movers receives the same courtesy and professionalism that we did.
