You’re not wondering if the crew will show up. You’re not scrambling to find boxes at the last minute. You’re not worried about whether your furniture will fit through the doorway or if that antique piece will arrive in one piece.
Instead, you get a clear estimate upfront. We arrive on time with the right equipment. Your belongings are packed properly, loaded carefully, and delivered where they need to go.
The difference isn’t just about moving your stuff from point A to point B. It’s about having one less thing to stress over during what’s already a hectic time. Whether you’re relocating a 10,000 square foot estate or a small apartment, the process stays consistent: professional, efficient, and straightforward.
All Terrain Moving and Junk Removal was started by two brothers, Scott and Matt, who built this business on a simple principle: do the work right and treat people fairly. We’re licensed and insured for residential and commercial jobs across Long Island, including Suffolk County, Nassau County, and Queens County.
East Hampton isn’t like other towns. The properties here are high-value, the logistics can get complicated, and the expectations are higher. We’ve moved everything from pool tables and pianos to entire estates, and we understand what it takes to handle valuable possessions in this market.
You’re working with a family-run operation that’s been doing this long enough to know what actually matters: showing up when we say we will, handling your belongings with care, and getting the job done without drama.
First, you reach out for a free estimate. We’ll ask about what you’re moving, where it’s going, and any special items that need extra attention. No hidden fees, no surprises later.
Once you’re ready to book, we confirm your date and time. We show up with the right equipment—dollies, blankets, straps, and whatever else the job requires. If you need packing services, we handle that too. Everything gets wrapped, boxed, and labeled properly.
During the move, we load your belongings carefully and transport them to your new location. Heavy items like safes or specialty pieces get the attention they need. Once we arrive, we unload and place everything where you want it.
If you’re dealing with a long-distance move, the process includes packing, transport, and unpacking on the other end. If you need storage between locations, we can coordinate that too. The goal is simple: make your move as straightforward as possible so you can focus on everything else.

You get a full-service moving experience. That means residential and commercial moving, local and long-distance capabilities, packing services, and junk removal if you need to clear out items before or after the move. We handle specialty items—pianos, pool tables, fragile artwork, heavy safes—without issue.
In East Hampton, where 64.5% of homes are second residences, storage services become essential. If you’re between properties or need temporary space while renovating, we can help coordinate secure storage options. Same-day service is available for urgent situations, which matters when other moving companies cancel at the last minute or timelines shift unexpectedly.
The market here moves fast, especially during peak season from May through August when nearly half of all moves happen. Prices can climb, availability gets tight, and finding reliable movers becomes harder. We stay flexible and responsive because we know how quickly plans can change in this area.
Everything we do is licensed and insured. You’re not taking a risk on an unlicensed operation or a crew that doesn’t know how to handle high-value properties. Whether you’re moving into a multi-million dollar estate or relocating a small business, the level of care stays the same.
The average moving cost in East Hampton runs around $2,521, but that number shifts based on the size of your move, distance, and what services you need. Smaller moves might fall closer to $1,050, while larger estates or long-distance relocations can reach $5,636 or higher.
Several factors affect pricing. If you’re moving during peak season—May through August—expect higher rates because demand is up and availability is limited. The size of your home matters too. A small apartment takes less time and fewer crew members than a 5,000 square foot house with specialty items.
Distance plays a role as well. Local moves within East Hampton or to nearby towns cost less than long-distance moving companies charge for out-of-state relocations. Packing services, storage needs, and specialty item handling all add to the total.
The best way to know what your move will actually cost is to get a free estimate. We’ll ask about your specific situation and give you a clear number upfront—no vague ranges or surprise fees later.
Tipping isn’t required, but it’s common if you’re happy with the service. The standard range is 10-20% of your total moving cost, or $5 per mover per hour if you prefer to calculate it that way.
For a crew of four working a six-hour move, that could mean $120 to $240 total if you’re going by the hourly rate, or you might base it on a percentage of your final bill. If your move cost $2,500, a 15% tip would be $375 split among the crew.
Consider the conditions too. Moving in East Hampton during summer heat is physically demanding work. If your crew is hauling heavy furniture up stairs in 90-degree weather, that’s worth acknowledging. Also, keep water and refreshments available—it’s a small gesture that makes a real difference during a long day.
If something goes wrong or the service isn’t what you expected, you’re not obligated to tip. But if we show up on time, work hard, and take care of your belongings, tipping is a good way to show appreciation for that effort.
Yes, we offer same-day moving service for urgent situations. If another company cancels last-minute or your timeline suddenly changes, we’ll do everything we can to accommodate you.
Same-day moves require availability, so the earlier you call, the better your chances. We keep our schedule flexible specifically for these situations because we know how stressful it is when plans fall apart. Whether you’re dealing with a closing date that moved up, a lease that’s ending sooner than expected, or any other time-sensitive scenario, reach out and we’ll tell you honestly whether we can make it work.
Keep in mind that same-day requests during peak moving season—especially May through August—are harder to fulfill because demand is higher. But even during busy periods, we prioritize emergency moves when possible.
The process is the same as a scheduled move: we’ll ask about what you’re moving, where it’s going, and what services you need. The difference is we’re working on a compressed timeline, so having everything ready to go helps us move faster and get you settled quicker.
Valuable and fragile items get extra attention from start to finish. We use specialized packing materials—heavy-duty boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, and custom crating when necessary—to protect delicate pieces during transport.
Before we move anything, we’ll assess what you have and determine the best approach. Large paintings or framed artwork get wrapped and padded separately. Antiques are handled with care and secured properly in the truck so they don’t shift during transit. Glass items, chandeliers, and other breakables are packed individually and clearly labeled.
Our crew is trained to handle high-value items, which matters in East Hampton where many homes contain expensive furnishings, art collections, and heirloom pieces. We’re also fully insured, so if something does go wrong despite our precautions, you’re covered.
If you’re particularly concerned about specific items, let us know during the estimate. We can discuss additional protective measures or special handling procedures. The goal is to make sure everything arrives in the same condition it left, whether it’s a family heirloom or a piece you just invested in.
Yes, we can coordinate storage services if you need temporary space between moves. This comes up often in East Hampton, especially with second-home owners who are transitioning between properties or dealing with renovation timelines that don’t line up perfectly.
Storage needs vary. Some people need short-term space for a few weeks while closing on a new property. Others need longer-term storage during major renovations or while spending extended time elsewhere. We work with secure storage facilities that can accommodate both situations.
The process is straightforward. We pack and load your belongings, transport them to the storage facility, and then deliver them to your new location when you’re ready. Everything stays protected during the storage period, and you don’t have to worry about coordinating multiple companies or moving things twice.
If you’re not sure whether you need storage services, mention it during your estimate. We can talk through your timeline and help you figure out the most efficient approach. Sometimes storage makes sense. Other times, timing the move differently is simpler and more cost-effective.
Fall and winter are typically the best times to move in East Hampton if you want lower prices and better availability. Peak moving season runs from May through August, when 45% of all moves happen. During those months, rates go up, schedules fill quickly, and you’ll have fewer options for preferred moving dates.
Spring is the second busiest period, accounting for about 27.6% of annual moves. If you’re planning a spring or summer move, book as early as possible—ideally several weeks in advance—to secure your date and avoid premium pricing.
Off-season moves in fall and winter offer more flexibility. Crews are less booked, rates are often lower, and you’ll have an easier time scheduling around your preferred timeline. The weather in East Hampton during these months is manageable for moving, and you won’t be competing with the rush of people relocating during peak season.
That said, sometimes your move date isn’t flexible. If you’re tied to a closing date, lease expiration, or work schedule, don’t stress about timing. We work year-round and can handle moves during any season. The key is reaching out early so we can plan accordingly and give you the best possible service regardless of when you need to move.
