There are several pointers to remember when relocating to the Empire State. There are things to learn before contacting the best Boston to New York Movers. Here are some must-know tips when you’re about to move house to this busting city!
Cost of living
New York City is dubbed as the most expensive place to live in the country. However, the metropolis is teeming with work opportunities no matter what the status of your life is. Houses can easily cost by the thousands, which is why residents opt to have roommates to split the monthly expenses.
You might have heard about the city’s awful traffic situation, but there are many alternatives to it. You can take the subway or opt for a car-pooling ride. Plenty of residents choose to walk to combat traffic and get to their destination in time. Be sure to invest in a good pair of shoes and learn to walk at a fast pace once you’re in New York!
Here’s a bonus: you can save money by hiring Boston to NY movers with affordable rates. You’ll get value-worthy services from our team who knows how to properly care for customers.
Apartments
Patience is key when searching for an apartment to live in. Before you sign a lease, you might pay a ‘broker’s fee’, which is about 10-15% of the annual rent. Some apartments may also require the first month’s rent plus a security deposit upfront.
The secret to finding a house in New York is to compromise. It’s difficult (but not impossible) to find an apartment that checks all your preferences. You can make a list of the non-negotiables and conditions you can accept. That way, you will find an abode that may not be perfect but is good enough as you start a new life in NY.
Once you find the perfect house, you can reach out to the best Boston to New York movers today. The Stairhopper Movers team can provide an outstanding moving house experience for you!
Day-to-day life
The highs and lows of living in New York is evident as you live your life from day to day. The city has unmatched energy, and it offers the best of everything. That said, NY is extremely fast paced, so you need to keep up so that you won’t miss any opportunity.
If you are a student at New York University, Cornell University or Columbia University, the first thing to do is figure out the subway. The same is true if you work in the Central Business Districts such as Midtown Manhattan and Lower Manhattan. NY is essentially a big grid, which means that you can never truly get lost in the city.
If you are willing to splurge, you can catch breathtaking Broadway shows and do an international food tour within NY. From the Jewish Katz’s Deli to the Ukrainian Veselka, you’ll get a taste of different cuisines without leaving the metro!

Read all reviews on Google - “EXCELLENT”
We used Stairhoppers for a move from Boston to Virginia and couldn't be more happy with the experience. In addition to the flat rate for the move and delivery, we also used them for packing and unpacking services. The moving day happened to be during a Nor'Easter and the crew was very careful to wrap all of our items with extra blankets so nothing got wet. Overall I highly recommend Stairhoppers.
- “HIGHLY RECOMMENDED”
Stairhoppers helped us move from Boston to CT - they were incredibly efficient and took great care of our belongings throughout the move. They were also very reasonably priced. The Stairhoppers crew made our move so easy - we barely had to lift a finger. Highly recommend. Thank you Stairhoppers!
- “WOULD RECOMMEND”
Hired for an interstate move during one of the busiest weekends in the area for movers, and the price was reasonable and a good value for services rendered. Friendly movers, efficient loading, easy logistical process from start to finish, very responsive to questions, lots of helpful confirmation messages, and took good care of items.
- “WOULD RECOMMEND”
I moved from Boston to Chicago with Stairhopper and they made the process stress free! I didn't pack a single thing, they did it all for me, and even brought boxes and moving supplies. They assembled my new furniture in Chicago and were very thoughtful when assembling and moving to avoid damage. Would recommend!
- “AMAZING”
Recently moved from the Boston area to North Carolina and the team from Stairhopper Movers was impeccable. Nothing was damaged, they were extremely communicative and prompt, and super efficient with how they worked. They were very careful with our belongings and did an amazing job. Would definitely recommend them for local or long distance moves.
- “SEAMLESS”
We used Stairhopper Movers to move from Massachusetts to North Carolina. The team that loaded our items was quick and very professional! They kept us updated about arrival times and quickly unloaded everything into a storage unit for us. They took great care with delicate items and were very friendly. We will be recommending them to everyone we know that are moving!
- “FIVE STARS”
Cross-country move from Boston to Wisconsin with 2 weeks of storage in between. Stairhopper handled it like pros, tailoring my dates and times to my schedule, and making sure I understood every step of the process. Prices were comparable to other companies in the area and the movers were quick and professional.
- “FANTASTIC”
I moved from Massachusetts to Florida last month and after doing a lot of comparison shopping and research on movers I decided to hire Stairhopper for the move. They absolutely lived up to their reputation and did a fantastic job. They got all my stuff down to Florida in two days, all in one piece with no damage, and they charged me exactly what they quoted.
- “THE BEST”
This year, I moved from New York to Boston. I decided to hire movers for the first time, and WOW am I glad I did. I can't say enough about how excellent Stairhopper movers is. Their customer service is absolutely unmatched. A representative called me within 30 minutes of submitting the form, and the movers (Selvin and Orlando) showed up right on time, professional, friendly, and EXTREMELY FAST AND STRONG. I can't recommend this company enough.

Learn moreLong Distance Moving FAQs
Can you move me between different cities or states?
Yes. Long-distance and interstate moving are among our specialties, and we provide moving services throughout the contiguous United States. Unlike many moving companies that combine shipments, we use dedicated trucks whenever possible, meaning your belongings travel directly from your old home to your new one. You’ll receive an upfront, flat-rate, all-inclusive quote with no hidden fees, so you’ll know exactly what to expect from start to finish.
How can I get a quote for my long-distance move?
Getting a quote is easy and completely free. Call us at (857) 928-0876 or complete our online Free Moving Estimate form. To provide the most accurate quote, we’ll ask for your pickup and delivery locations, move date, inventory, access details, and any specialty items you may have.
How long does a long-distance move take?
Delivery times vary depending on the distance, route, weather, and scheduling requirements. During your estimate, your move coordinator will provide an expected delivery window based on your specific move. Because we use dedicated trucks whenever possible, your belongings are transported directly to your destination without unnecessary delays caused by combining multiple shipments.
Do you use shared trucks for long-distance moves?
No. We strive to provide dedicated trucks for long-distance moves whenever possible. This means your belongings are not mixed with another customer’s shipment, helping reduce handling, minimize delays, and provide faster, more reliable delivery.
Do I need to pay a deposit to reserve my move?
Yes. A deposit is required to reserve your moving date and secure your crew. Please note that deposits are non-refundable. If you cancel your move, the deposit cannot be refunded or transferred to a different reservation. We recommend booking only once you’re confident in your moving date.
What payment methods do you accept, and when is payment due?
Your deposit is collected when you book your move, and the remaining balance is typically due upon completion of the move once everything has been delivered and placed in your new home. Your move coordinator will review all payment details with you before moving day so there are no surprises.
