Hear from Our Customers
When you’re moving out of state, the last thing you need is a company that subcontracts your belongings to someone else. You get our truck, our crew, and our full accountability from your driveway in North Great River to wherever you’re headed.
That means no handoffs. No confusion about who’s responsible if something goes wrong. You’re not dealing with a franchise slapping a local sticker on a national operation—you’re working with a family-owned business that’s been doing this for over 15 years.
We handle the packing, the loading, the transport, and the unload. If you need junk removal before or after, we do that too. You’re not coordinating three different companies while trying to close on a house, manage work, and keep your family on schedule. You make one call.
All Terrain Moving is a family-owned long distance moving company based on Long Island. We’ve spent over 15 years moving families across state lines, and we know what matters when you’re relocating from a community like North Great River—where median home values sit around $700K and you’ve got real assets to protect.
We’re licensed, bonded, and insured with full cargo coverage. That’s not standard in this industry, but it should be. If something breaks, we own it. We’re not the cheapest option, and that’s intentional—you’re paying for movers who show up on time, bring the right equipment, and treat your belongings like they’re ours.
North Great River residents are moving to places like Miami, Philadelphia, and Boston. We’ve made those runs hundreds of times. We know the routes, the timing, and how to coordinate around your closing dates and work schedules.
You call or email for a quote. We ask about your timeline, your destination, what you’re moving, and whether you need packing services. We give you transparent pricing—no fake lowball numbers that triple when we show up.
If you want us to pack, we bring the materials and handle it. If you’re packing yourself, we walk you through what you need and how to prep fragile items. Either way, we show up on moving day with dollies, straps, blankets, and tools for disassembly.
We load everything onto our truck. If you’ve got a piano, pool table, gun safe, or oversized furniture, we’ve got the equipment and the experience to move it safely. Then we drive your belongings to your new location—no transfers, no storage facilities unless you request it.
At delivery, we unload, reassemble what we took apart, and place everything where you want it. You’re not left with boxes in the garage and furniture in the wrong rooms. We finish the job.
Ready to get started?
You get a full-service long distance moving company that handles residential and commercial moves of any size. We’ve moved studio apartments and 10,000 square foot homes. The approach is the same—professional handling, proper equipment, and full accountability.
We provide all the equipment: dollies, straps, moving blankets, and disassembly tools. If you need packing services, we bring boxes, tape, bubble wrap, and packing paper. We pack room by room, label everything, and make sure fragile items are protected for the road.
North Great River has a high percentage of residents relocating out of state—about 30% of homebuyers in the area are searching to leave. That’s created a competitive moving market, which means you’re seeing a lot of companies that don’t actually do the work themselves. We do. It’s our team, our truck, and our insurance covering your belongings from pickup to delivery.
We also offer same-day availability when possible. If another company cancels or you’re in a bind with timing, we’ll do what we can to accommodate. That kind of flexibility matters when you’re juggling closing dates, inspections, and family logistics.
Long distance moving costs depend on the distance you’re traveling, the size of your home, and whether you need packing services. For an interstate move from North Great River to a place like Miami or Philadelphia, you’re typically looking at a few thousand dollars for a two-bedroom home, more for larger properties.
We price based on weight, mileage, and labor. If you’re moving from a $700K home in North Great River, you likely have more belongings and higher-value items than someone in a smaller apartment. That affects the quote. We don’t give fake lowball estimates that balloon later—we assess what you’re moving and give you honest numbers upfront.
Packing services add to the cost, but they also save you time and reduce the risk of damage. If you’re employed full-time, managing kids, and trying to close on a house, paying for professional packing might be worth it. We can also do partial packing—just the fragile stuff or just the kitchen—if you want to save money and handle the rest yourself.
Yes. Any company moving your belongings across state lines must be licensed by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration and have a USDOT number. That’s federal law. If a company can’t provide that number, don’t hire them.
We’re fully licensed, bonded, and insured. We also carry full cargo coverage, which means if something breaks during your move, we’re financially responsible. A lot of interstate moving companies only offer minimal liability coverage—something like 60 cents per pound per item. That’s not enough if your flat-screen TV or dining table gets damaged.
The moving industry has a problem with scam operators who quote low, show up on moving day, and then demand more money before they’ll load your truck. Some don’t show up at all. Checking licensing and insurance isn’t paranoia—it’s due diligence. You’re trusting someone with everything you own.
If you’re moving during peak season—May through September—book at least four to six weeks out. If you’re moving in the off-season, two to three weeks is usually enough. That said, we’ve accommodated same-day moves when other companies canceled or timelines shifted unexpectedly.
North Great River residents are often moving because of job relocations or housing market decisions. Sometimes your closing date gets moved up, or the buyer pushes for a faster timeline. If that happens, call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether we can make it work.
The earlier you book, the more flexibility you have with scheduling. If you wait until the last minute, you might get stuck with a company that’s not your first choice—or worse, a company that’s unlicensed and unreliable. We’ve picked up the pieces after other movers no-showed. It’s not a situation you want to be in.
We offer full-service packing, partial packing, or no packing—it’s your call. Full-service means we show up with all the materials and pack everything from your kitchen to your garage. Partial packing means we handle the fragile or complicated stuff—dishes, glassware, artwork, electronics—and you pack the rest.
If you’re packing yourself, we’ll walk you through how to do it properly. Most damage during long distance moves happens because items weren’t packed correctly, not because the movers were careless. You need the right boxes, the right amount of padding, and the right labeling system.
For families in North Great River moving to another state, packing services usually make sense. You’re busy, you’ve got valuable belongings, and you don’t want to spend two weeks wrapping dishes. We bring the boxes, the bubble wrap, the packing paper, and the experience to do it fast and right. If something breaks because we packed it wrong, that’s on us.
We carry full cargo coverage, which means if we damage something, we’re financially responsible for repair or replacement. That’s different from the basic liability coverage most moving companies offer, which only pays out 60 cents per pound. If your 50-pound TV breaks, basic coverage gets you $30. That doesn’t cut it.
Before we load the truck, we do a walkthrough and document the condition of your furniture and belongings. At delivery, we do another walkthrough. If something’s damaged, you report it immediately, and we handle the claim. We don’t fight you on it—we own our mistakes.
That said, the best way to avoid damage is to hire movers who know what they’re doing. We’ve been moving families for over 15 years. We’ve handled pianos, pool tables, antiques, and gun safes. We know how to secure loads for long drives and how to navigate tight staircases and doorways. Experience matters.
Yes. We move pianos, pool tables, safes, oversized furniture, and other specialty items that a lot of local movers won’t touch. We’ve got the equipment and the training to do it safely—piano dollies, lifting straps, custom padding, and the crew size to handle heavy or awkward items.
Moving a baby grand piano across state lines isn’t the same as moving a couch. It requires disassembly, proper padding, secure loading, and careful handling at delivery. Same with pool tables—you’ve got slate, felt, and precision leveling involved. If the mover doesn’t know what they’re doing, you’re paying for repairs or replacement on the other end.
North Great River homes tend to be larger and more valuable, which means you’re more likely to own specialty items. We’ve moved commercial equipment, fine art, antique furniture, and custom-built pieces. If it fits in the truck and it’s legal to transport, we’ll move it. If it doesn’t fit, we’ll figure out a solution.
