Tribeca Moving Guide
Moving in Tribeca: Lofts, Fine Art, Costs & FAQs
Moving in Tribeca? Here's how loft buildings and strict co-ops handle movers, how we protect art and design pieces, and what your move will cost.
What’s it like to move in Tribeca?
Large lofts, valuable contents. Most Tribeca homes are in converted warehouse and loft buildings with big open rooms, oversized furniture and art collections, plus newer luxury condos with loading docks. Buildings tend to have formal contractor rules, and the cobblestone side streets near the Hudson add care to every carry.
ZIP codes we serve: 10007, 10013.
What should I know about my building’s move rules?
Tribeca co-ops and condos usually require a COI naming the building and managing agent, a reserved freight elevator or loading dock time, and sometimes a list of crew names in advance. Reserve your time with the building, send us its requirements, and we’ll meet them before move day.
Where will the moving truck park?
As close to your loading entrance as the street allows. NYC doesn’t issue parking permits for moving trucks, so our crew scouts your block before move day and plans around the narrow and cobblestone streets, using a loading dock when your building has one. You’ll never be asked to save a spot.
When is the best time to move in Tribeca?
A weekday morning. Many buildings allow moves only on weekdays, and morning starts avoid the afternoon traffic toward the Holland Tunnel. If your closing date might shift, book early and keep your plan flexible.
From a strict Tribeca co-op to rural Connecticut, art and all
We’ve been moving New Yorkers since 1999. Here’s one of the moves we’re proud of.
Tribeca (10013) · 2-bedroom co-op → Connecticut · 4-person crew · packing, oversized items, disassembly and reassembly
The challenge: Helen’s co-op has strict requirements for every contractor who enters, her art collection had to arrive without a scratch, and her move date changed several times, sometimes on short notice.
What we did: Her coordinator, Maxwell, rescheduled the move each time without complaint. Our four-person crew met the building’s contractor requirements, wrapped every piece of furniture and artwork for the long drive, and took apart the larger pieces. At her new home in Connecticut, they reassembled everything and placed each piece exactly where she wanted it.
The result: Everything, art included, arrived without any damage.
In her words: “All our furniture and art pieces were wrapped perfectly and arrived without any damage whatsoever. The team placed everything exactly where we wanted and couldn’t have been more careful.” — Helen S., Google review
Tip for your move: If your move date might shift, during a closing or a co-op approval, ask your mover upfront how they handle rescheduling. Flexibility matters as much as the price.
What’s included in every move?
One flat price covers the full job: every piece of furniture wrapped in moving blankets and stretch wrap, floors and doorways protected, beds and tables taken apart and put back together, and your building’s COI at no charge.
Do you offer packing, piano moving and storage?
Yes, and each is included in the same flat price when you add it.
- Packing: full, partial or just the fragile items. See Packing Services.
- Fine art, antiques and pianos: custom padding, crating and the right equipment. See Delicate Items.
- Storage: overnight on the truck, or climate-controlled storage at $0.75 per cubic foot per month when your new place isn’t ready. See Storage Solutions.
How much does it cost to move in Tribeca?
One flat price, confirmed after your video walk-through, and that’s what you pay. No hourly meter, no fuel surcharge, no move-day surprises.
| Home size | Crew and time | Flat-rate price |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 movers · 2–3 hours | $650 – $950 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 movers · 3–4 hours | $950 – $1,200 |
| 2 bedroom | 3 movers · 4–6 hours | $1,500 – $2,500 |
| 3 bedroom | 3–4 movers · 6–9 hours | Custom quote |
| 4+ bedroom / townhouse | 4 movers · full day | Custom quote |
In Tribeca, the biggest price factors are art and antiques that need crating, oversized loft furniture, and moves out of the city.
Why choose a boutique mover?
We cap our schedule at 15 moves a day and never overbook, so your crew is booked for your move alone. One coordinator handles your move from the first call to the last box, our crew members average more than 20 years with the company, and you get an arrival window plus a call about 30 minutes before the crew arrives.
Tribeca moving FAQs
How do you move fine art?
Piece by piece. Paintings, sculpture and framed works get custom padding or crating, and we plan how each one travels during the video walk-through. See Delicate Items.
My building requires crew names in advance. Can you provide them?
Yes. Send us your building’s contractor requirements and we’ll provide the COI, crew names and anything else management asks for before move day.
What if my closing date changes?
We reschedule with you, as often as needed, subject to availability. If you need to move out before you can move in, we can store your belongings in between.
What is your cancellation policy?
Cancel 72 or more hours before move day for a full deposit refund. Rescheduling is free with 48 hours’ notice, subject to availability.
