Hear from Our Customers
You get a crew that shows up on time with the right equipment. Your belongings are loaded, transported, and unloaded without the last-minute price hikes or finger-pointing that comes with hiring a broker who farms out your move to whoever’s available.
We’re the actual moving company doing your job. That means one point of contact, one crew, one truck, and one price that doesn’t change after your couch is already loaded.
You also get someone who picks up the phone when you call. Moving long distance is stressful enough without wondering where your stuff is or when it’ll actually arrive. We keep you updated, stick to the timeline we give you, and handle your belongings like they matter—because to you, they do.
All Terrain Moving and Junk Removal Inc. is a family-owned business that’s been serving Long Island since before “same-day service” became a marketing gimmick. We’ve moved families from Islip to North Carolina, Florida, Texas, and everywhere in between.
We’re licensed, insured, and we actually own our trucks. That matters more than you’d think. A lot of companies you find online are brokers—they take your deposit, sell your move to the lowest bidder, then disappear when things go wrong.
Islip has a median household income over $120,000, which means you’re not looking for the cheapest option. You’re looking for someone reliable who won’t waste your time or damage your stuff. That’s what we do, and we’ve built our reputation on it across Suffolk County.
First, you reach out for a quote. We’ll ask about your timeline, what you’re moving, and where you’re going. Then we give you a transparent estimate—not a lowball number designed to get you on the hook.
Once you book, we schedule your move and confirm everything in writing. No surprises. On moving day, our crew arrives with the truck, equipment, and packing materials if you need them. We load everything carefully, secure it for the long haul, and hit the road.
During transit, you’re not left guessing. We keep you updated on timing and arrival windows. When we get to your new place, we unload, place your furniture where you want it, and make sure everything arrived intact. Then we’re done. You don’t pay until the job’s finished and you’re satisfied.
Ready to get started?
You get a full-service long distance moving company that handles packing, loading, transport, unloading, and even specialty items like pianos, pool tables, and safes. If you’re short on time or just don’t want to deal with wrapping every dish you own, we’ll pack it for you.
We also offer flexible scheduling, including same-day availability when other companies cancel or can’t fit you in. That’s not something brokers can pull off—it requires having your own crew and equipment ready to go.
For Islip residents moving out of state, the most common routes we run are south to the Carolinas and Florida, and west toward Texas and Arizona. Remote work has made long distance moves more common, and people are chasing lower cost of living without sacrificing quality of life. We’ve seen it firsthand over the last few years—families leaving Long Island for space, affordability, and a change of pace.
We’re also eco-conscious. Anything you don’t want to take with you, we’ll donate or recycle instead of tossing it in a landfill. It’s a small thing, but it matters to a lot of people in Suffolk County who care about where their stuff ends up.
It depends on how much you’re moving and how far you’re going. A mid-sized home moving 500 miles usually runs between $3,400 and $7,500. Cross-country moves over 2,500 miles can range from $10,000 to $17,000 or more.
We don’t give you a lowball estimate to win your business, then jack up the price once your stuff is on the truck. That’s a common tactic with brokers, and it’s why people end up paying double what they were quoted.
When we give you a price, it’s based on an honest assessment of your inventory, distance, and any additional services like packing or handling specialty items. If something changes on your end, we’ll adjust the quote before the move—not after.
A broker doesn’t actually move your stuff. They take your deposit, then sell your move to a third-party carrier—often the one willing to do it for the least amount of money. That’s where the problems start: price changes, poor communication, delayed deliveries, and damaged items.
We’re a direct carrier. That means we own the trucks, employ the crew, and handle your move from start to finish. You’re not dealing with a middleman who disappears when something goes wrong.
It also means we have control over the timeline and quality. If we say we’ll be there Tuesday, we’ll be there Tuesday. If something breaks, we’re the ones who fix it. You’re not stuck trying to figure out who’s responsible while your belongings sit in a warehouse somewhere.
Yes. We’ve moved pianos, pool tables, gun safes, antique furniture, and just about everything else you can think of. These items require different equipment and handling than your average couch, and we come prepared.
Pianos, for example, need to be properly wrapped, secured, and sometimes disassembled depending on the model. Pool tables have to be broken down, slate protected, and reassembled at your new place. We’ve done it hundreds of times.
If you have something fragile, valuable, or awkward to move, let us know upfront. We’ll factor it into the estimate and make sure we bring the right tools and crew to handle it safely.
It depends on the distance. A move from Islip to North Carolina might take two to three days. A cross-country haul to California could take a week or more, depending on the route and any stops along the way.
We give you a realistic delivery window when you book, and we stick to it. You won’t be left waiting around for days wondering when your stuff will show up.
One thing to keep in mind: consolidated moves—where your belongings share truck space with other customers—can take longer because of multiple stops. If you need a faster timeline, we can discuss dedicated truck options where your move is the only one on board.
Yes. If you don’t have the time or energy to pack everything yourself, we’ll handle it. We bring the boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap, and tape, and we’ll pack your entire home if that’s what you need.
Packing services aren’t just about convenience—they also reduce the risk of damage. We know how to wrap dishes, protect electronics, and secure fragile items so they survive a long haul across state lines.
You can also do a hybrid approach: pack the easy stuff yourself and let us handle the kitchen, glassware, and anything breakable. We’re flexible. Just let us know what you want, and we’ll build the estimate around it.
Yes. We’re fully licensed and insured to handle long distance and interstate moving. That’s not a given in this industry—plenty of companies operate without proper credentials, and you don’t find out until something goes wrong.
Being licensed means we’re held to federal and state regulations for how we conduct business, how we handle your belongings, and how we resolve disputes. Being insured means if something gets damaged, you’re covered.
Always ask for proof of licensing and insurance before you hire any long distance moving company. If they hesitate or can’t produce documentation, that’s a red flag. We’ll show you ours upfront because we have nothing to hide.
