You don’t have to spend three weekends wrapping dishes or hunting down boxes that actually fit your stuff. When you hire professional packing services in Bay Shore, NY, you get a trained crew that shows up with the right materials and finishes in hours what would take you days.
Your glassware gets wrapped properly. Your mirrors don’t crack in transit. Your grandmother’s china makes it to the new house in one piece.
Everything gets labeled by room and contents so you’re not opening 40 boxes to find your coffee maker. You’re not guessing whether that box marked “kitchen stuff” has plates or cleaning supplies. You know where things are because someone who does this for a living packed it with a system.
And you get your time back. Time to handle the other parts of moving that actually need your attention—like coordinating with the landlord, setting up utilities, or just keeping your sanity intact during a stressful process.
All Terrain Moving and Junk Removal Inc. is a family-owned business that’s been handling moves across Long Island since 2010. We’re not a national franchise with rotating crews—we’re local, and we’ve packed everything from studio apartments in downtown Bay Shore to waterfront homes along the Great South Bay.
We know the area. We know how to navigate the parking restrictions near Main Street during peak hours. We know that moving season in Bay Shore means tight schedules and even tighter driveways.
Our crews are trained specifically on packing—not just moving. That means they know the difference between wrapping a flat-screen TV and packing a lamp with a fragile shade. They know how to pack a kitchen so nothing shifts in the truck. And they work fast without cutting corners, because we’ve done this thousands of times.
First, you tell us what needs packing. That could be your entire house, just the kitchen and fragile items, or specific rooms you don’t have time to handle. We’ll give you a clear quote based on what you actually need—no upselling, no surprises.
On packing day, our crew shows up with all the materials: boxes in multiple sizes, bubble wrap, packing paper, tape, and custom crating materials if you’ve got oversized or valuable items like artwork or mirrors. We bring everything, so you don’t have to make runs to the store or wonder if you bought enough supplies.
We pack room by room. Fragile items get extra protection. Heavy items go in smaller boxes so they’re actually liftable. Everything gets labeled with the room and a quick description of contents. If you’re doing a full pack, we can usually finish a typical home in one day.
Once everything’s packed, it’s ready to load. If we’re handling your move too, we go straight into loading the truck. If you’re using another company or moving yourself, everything’s boxed, labeled, and ready to go when you are.

You get a trained crew that knows how to pack efficiently and safely. These aren’t general laborers—they’re people who’ve been trained on proper packing techniques for everything from everyday household items to high-value fragile pieces.
All packing materials are included: boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, tape, and specialty materials for items that need custom protection. We use high-quality boxes that won’t collapse under weight, and we bring enough supplies to finish the job without running out halfway through.
For residential packing in Bay Shore, NY, we handle kitchens, closets, garages, basements—whatever needs to be packed. For commercial packing, we work around your business hours and pack offices, retail inventory, or equipment with minimal disruption to your operations.
Bay Shore’s mix of historic homes and modern developments means we see a lot of variety in what needs packing. Older homes often have more fragile architectural details and antiques. Waterfront properties tend to have more high-value items that need careful handling. We adjust our approach based on what you actually own, not a one-size-fits-all method.
Packing costs depend on how much you need packed and how long it takes. Most companies charge either by the hour or by the volume of items. For a typical three-bedroom home in Bay Shore, full packing usually runs between $800 and $1,500, depending on how much stuff you have and how many fragile items need extra care.
Hourly rates for professional packing services on Long Island typically range from $100 to $200 per hour for a two-person crew, and that includes all materials. If you only need specific rooms packed—like the kitchen or a home office—you’re looking at a smaller job that might take a few hours instead of a full day.
The cost also depends on what you own. If you’ve got a lot of china, glassware, artwork, or antiques, that takes more time and specialized materials. If most of your stuff is clothing, books, and everyday items, it goes faster. We’ll give you an upfront quote after talking through what needs packing, so you know what to expect before we start.
No. When you hire professional packing services, all materials are included in the cost. We bring boxes in multiple sizes, bubble wrap, packing paper, tape, and any specialty materials needed for fragile or oversized items.
You don’t have to guess how many boxes you need or make multiple trips to the store. You don’t have to figure out whether you need small boxes for books or large boxes for linens. We bring what’s needed based on the size of your home and the type of items you’re moving.
If you have items that need custom crating—like large mirrors, chandeliers, or fine art—we handle that too. We build crates on-site if necessary to make sure high-value or fragile pieces are protected during the move. All of that is part of the packing service, so you’re not scrambling to figure out how to safely pack a 6-foot mirror or a glass dining table.
For a typical three-bedroom home, a professional crew can usually finish packing in one day—somewhere between 6 and 8 hours. Smaller homes or apartments take less time. Larger homes or homes with a lot of fragile items take longer.
The timeline depends on how much you own and how much of it needs careful handling. A minimalist apartment with mostly clothing and books packs faster than a family home with a full kitchen, multiple bathrooms, a garage full of tools, and a basement full of storage.
If you’re doing a partial pack—just the kitchen, fragile items, or specific rooms—that usually takes a few hours instead of a full day. We can also work around your schedule. If you need packing done over two days instead of one, or if you need us to pack certain rooms while leaving others for you to handle, we can adjust the timeline to fit your move.
Yes, if it’s packed correctly. That’s the whole point of hiring professionals—your stuff is significantly safer when it’s packed by people who know what they’re doing. Dishes get wrapped individually and cushioned properly. Glassware goes in divided boxes with padding between each piece. Electronics get protected from impact and static.
The most common cause of damage during a move isn’t the moving itself—it’s poor packing. Items shift in boxes that are too big. Fragile items break because they weren’t wrapped with enough protection. Heavy items go in boxes that can’t support the weight and the bottom gives out mid-carry.
Professional packing eliminates most of that risk. We use the right box sizes for the right items. We pack boxes so nothing shifts during transport. We label fragile boxes clearly so they’re handled appropriately during loading and unloading. For high-value items like antiques or artwork, we use custom crating and extra padding to make sure they arrive in the same condition they left.
Yes. You don’t have to hire us to pack your entire house. A lot of people in Bay Shore choose partial packing—they handle the easy stuff like clothing and linens, and they hire us to pack the kitchen, fragile items, or anything that makes them nervous.
Kitchens are one of the most common partial packing requests because they take forever to pack on your own and there’s a lot that can break. Dishes, glassware, small appliances, pantry items—it’s tedious and time-consuming. We can knock out a full kitchen in a few hours with proper materials and technique.
Fragile items are the other big one. If you’ve got china, crystal, artwork, mirrors, or antiques, those are worth packing professionally. It’s not just about speed—it’s about making sure expensive or sentimental items don’t get damaged because they weren’t packed correctly. We’ll pack whatever you need and leave the rest for you to handle.
We offer same-day service when our schedule allows. If you’re in a time crunch—maybe your move got moved up or you’re behind on packing—call us and we’ll do our best to fit you in.
Bay Shore’s location in central Suffolk County means we’re usually in the area and can often accommodate last-minute requests, especially during the off-season. During peak moving months—May through September—our schedule fills up faster, so same-day availability is less predictable.
Even if we can’t do same-day, we can usually get to you within a day or two. Moving timelines shift all the time, and we’re used to working with short notice. If you need packing done fast, reach out and we’ll tell you honestly what we can do and when we can do it.
