Hear from Our Customers
You get a binding estimate before anything gets loaded. That number doesn’t change when the truck arrives in Tennessee or North Carolina or wherever you’re headed.
You stay in the loop the entire time. Most long distance moving companies load your stuff and you don’t hear a word until it shows up late or damaged. That doesn’t happen here. You’ll know where your belongings are and when they’re arriving.
Your things get packed and secured properly for highway driving. We’re not rushing through the loading process because we’ve got three other jobs that day. Everything gets padded, strapped, and documented before it leaves Amityville. If something does get damaged, we actually handle the claim instead of ignoring your calls.
All Terrain Moving and Junk Removal Inc. has been handling moves across Suffolk County, Nassau County, and Queens County for over a decade. We’re not a national franchise with different crews in every state. We’re a local company that handles long distance moves the right way.
Matthew and Scott Young run the business, and they’re still involved in operations. When you call, you’re talking to people who actually know what’s happening with your move. We’re licensed with USDOT Number 4149015, fully insured, and we’ve moved everything from studio apartments to 10,000 square foot homes out of Amityville.
The South Shore moving market is competitive, but we’ve built our reputation on doing what we say we’ll do. No last-minute cancellations. No phantom fees. No disappearing acts after we load the truck.
First, you get a binding estimate. We’ll assess what you’re moving, where it’s going, and give you a number that won’t change. No vague ranges or “estimated” costs that balloon at delivery.
Then we schedule your move. If you need storage between places because your lease dates don’t line up, we coordinate that too. A lot of Amityville residents moving out of state run into timing issues, and temporary storage solves that problem without scrambling at the last minute.
On moving day, our crew shows up with the right equipment. Professional dollies, straps, padding, and clean trucks. We document the condition of your belongings before loading, pack everything securely for long-haul transport, and load it properly so nothing shifts during highway driving.
During transit, you’ll get updates. You’re not left wondering if your stuff is sitting in a warehouse somewhere or still on the road. For moves under 500 miles, expect delivery within 2-5 days. Cross country moves typically take 7-14 days, and we’ll give you a guaranteed delivery window before we leave.
Ready to get started?
You’re not paying separately for basic necessities. Padding, straps, dollies, and professional equipment are part of the service. We handle specialty items like pianos, pool tables, and heavy safes without tacking on surprise charges.
A lot of Amityville residents are relocating to lower cost-of-living areas in the South. North Carolina and Tennessee are the top destinations right now, and we run those routes regularly. You’re not our first rodeo moving someone from Long Island to Charlotte or Nashville.
The moves happening out of Amityville right now are driven by people wanting more space and lower housing costs. If you’re buying a new home out of state, we’ll work with your closing dates. If you’re moving to be closer to family, we’ll coordinate timing around your schedule. And if you’re one of the 43% of recent movers who don’t factor job location into the decision anymore, we get it. Remote work changed the game.
We also handle the seasonal college student moves with nearly 55,000 students within 15 miles of Amityville. Summer and early fall are peak times, so if you’re moving during May through August, book early. Equipment breakdowns and scheduling conflicts are common during peak season, and we maintain our trucks specifically to avoid those delays.
It depends on how much you’re moving and how far it’s going. A studio apartment moving to North Carolina costs less than a four-bedroom house moving to California.
Here’s what matters: you need a binding estimate, not a lowball quote that gets inflated at delivery. The industry standard is quoting cheap to win the job, then adding 40-50% in hidden fees for stairs, heavy items, fuel, or “materials” that were never mentioned upfront.
We give you the real number before we start. That includes labor, transport, basic packing materials, and standard equipment. If you’ve got specialty items like a safe or piano, we’ll account for that in the estimate. No surprises when the truck shows up at your new place.
Moves under 500 miles typically arrive within 2-5 days. Cross country moves take 7-14 days, and we’ll give you a guaranteed delivery window.
The timeline depends on distance and logistics. If you’re moving to a neighboring state, it’s faster. If you’re going coast to coast, it takes longer. But you’ll know the window before we load the truck.
The bigger issue is communication during transit. Most long distance moving companies load your stuff and you don’t hear anything until it shows up. We keep you updated throughout the move so you’re not left guessing whether your belongings are still on schedule or sitting in a warehouse somewhere.
We document the condition of your belongings before loading and handle claims properly if damage occurs. You’re not getting the runaround or blamed for improper packing.
Most moving companies make damage claims nearly impossible to resolve. They either ignore you, make the process so difficult you give up, or claim you packed it wrong. We take responsibility when something goes wrong.
Everything gets padded and secured for highway transport. We’re not rushing through the loading process because we’ve got three other jobs that day. Proper packing prevents most damage, but if something does happen, we have full insurance coverage and we actually use it.
Yes. A lot of people moving out of Amityville run into timing issues where their lease ends before their new place is ready.
We coordinate storage services so your belongings have somewhere to go between places. This is especially common during peak moving season when everyone’s trying to move during the same summer window.
Storage solves the problem of being stuck between homes without scrambling for a last-minute solution. We handle the logistics so you’re not coordinating with multiple companies or renting a storage unit yourself and figuring out how to get everything there.
We offer same-day emergency service for situations exactly like that. Last-minute cancellations happen more than they should in this industry, and it leaves people in a terrible spot.
If you’re already committed to a moving date and another company bails, call us. We’ll do everything possible to accommodate you, even on short notice.
Peak season is when cancellations happen most frequently because companies overbook or their equipment breaks down. We maintain our trucks specifically to avoid those problems, and we don’t overcommit our schedule just to maximize bookings.
Yes. We’re registered with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration under USDOT Number 4149015, and we’re fully insured for residential and commercial jobs.
Interstate moving requires proper licensing that a lot of companies either don’t have or don’t maintain correctly. You can verify our credentials through the FMCSA database.
Insurance matters because long distance moves involve more risk than local moves. Your belongings are on the road for days or weeks, going through different weather and road conditions. Proper coverage protects you if something goes wrong, and proper licensing means we’re held to federal standards for safety and accountability.
