If you are moving to New York City, you may have difficulty choosing which among the hundreds of New York moving companies you'll hire for the move. Although price will always be a concern, you also need to look at reliability.

Moving companies New York City are often the target of consumer complaints to the city's business bureau, and experts in the New York City moving industry would admit that in about a third of such moves, claims are filed against the mover. It is good to get as much information as possible about movers New York City before you move.

Pricing is done in various ways. What is important is for you to ascertain what circumstances will increase the actual cost higher than their quoted estimate. You should try calling as many companies as possible so that you'll have a feel for the going rates. Bear in mind that scammers are likely to submit lower bids just to get your business.

When moving to New York City, you must verify if the mover has a New York license. Most complaints from consumers have been about companies that don't have licenses. If you are moving to New York City from another state, you should confirm whether the van line you hire possesses the necessary license and insurance for interstate transport.

You will need insurance, but your homeowner's (or renter's) insurance policy may not cover the move; and, moving companies accept very little liability for items lost or damaged. Your mover may offer insurance for an added charge, so consider getting a policy that gives full replacement cost.

You may want the moving company to handle the packing of your belongings. It may cost a little more to have them pack, but if you bought insurance from the mover, your items will be covered only if they do the packing.
