Your furniture arrives intact. Your walls stay unmarked. Your timeline doesn’t get derailed by a crew that ghosts you the morning of your move.
You get a quote that doesn’t mysteriously double once the truck is loaded. The team that shows up knows how to handle a piano, a pool table, or that antique dresser your grandmother left you. We’re not learning on your dime.
When you’re coordinating a closing, managing work schedules, and trying to get your kids settled before school starts, the last thing you need is a moving company that treats your timeline like a suggestion. You need people who understand that in Center Moriches, where the median home costs over $550,000, you’re not just moving boxes—you’re protecting a significant investment. And you need it done without the runaround.
All Terrain Moving and Junk Removal isn’t a franchise with a rotating crew. We’re a family-owned moving service that’s been operating in Suffolk County since before the market boom that pushed home values past half a million dollars in this area.
We know the streets in Center Moriches. We know which developments have narrow driveways and which buildings require special equipment. We’ve moved families out of starter homes and retirees downsizing from properties they’ve owned for decades.
When 21,000 Long Island residents moved out last year and thousands more moved in from NYC, we handled both ends of that equation. Licensed, insured, and local—not a call center in another state telling you someone will “probably” show up.
You call or submit a request. We give you a free quote based on what you’re actually moving—not a ballpark number that changes later. If you need same-day service because another company bailed, we’ll tell you if we can make it happen.
On moving day, our crew shows up on time with the right equipment. We wrap your furniture, protect your floors, and load the truck like we’ve done this a few thousand times. Because we have.
If you’re moving locally within Center Moriches or across Suffolk County, it’s straightforward. Long distance moving companies charge differently, and we’ll walk you through what that looks like before you commit. If you need junk removal at the same time—old furniture, appliances, whatever you’re not taking—we handle that too. One crew, one bill, one less thing to coordinate.
Once everything’s loaded, we move it to your new place and unload where you want it. No surprises, no damage, no excuses.
Ready to get started?
You’re not just getting a truck and some muscle. You’re getting a crew that knows how to disassemble and reassemble furniture, handle specialty items like safes and pianos, and pack fragile belongings so they don’t turn into expensive insurance claims.
In Center Moriches, where 86% of residents own their homes and property values average $554,500, most moves involve more than loading boxes. You’ve got home offices, finished basements, outdoor furniture, and garage equipment. We’ve moved 10,000-square-foot homes and single-bedroom apartments. The approach is the same: treat your belongings like they matter.
If you’re between homes or renovating, storage services are available. If you’re clearing out before listing your property—and the Long Island market saw an 11% jump in NYC buyers last year—we’ll remove what you don’t need and move what you’re keeping. That’s the advantage of a moving company that also handles junk removal. You’re not coordinating two separate crews on two separate schedules.
Local moves within Center Moriches or nearby Suffolk County towns usually run by the hour. That rate depends on how many movers you need and how much stuff you’re moving. A one-bedroom apartment takes less time than a four-bedroom house with a full basement and garage.
Long distance moving companies calculate differently—usually by weight and mileage. If you’re moving out of state, which a lot of Long Island residents are doing given the 21,000 who left last year, expect a binding estimate based on an inventory of your belongings.
We give you a free quote upfront. No hidden fees for stairs, heavy items, or “extra time” that wasn’t discussed. You’ll know what you’re paying before we show up with a truck. If the scope changes—maybe you forgot about the treadmill in the basement—we’ll talk about it before it affects your bill.
Yes, if we have availability. Same-day requests usually come from two situations: another moving company cancelled last minute, or your closing date moved up and you’re scrambling.
We keep our schedule flexible enough to accommodate emergencies, but it depends on the day and the size of the move. A small apartment? Much easier to fit in than a full house. Call as early as possible, and we’ll tell you straight whether we can make it work.
Same-day moving service doesn’t mean rushed or sloppy. It means we have the crew and equipment ready to go when you need it. If we can’t do it, we’ll tell you that too—not string you along and cancel two hours before you’re supposed to be out of your house.
Yes. Pianos, pool tables, safes, gun safes, hot tubs, exercise equipment—we’ve moved all of it. These aren’t items you hand off to a crew that’s never dealt with them before.
A piano isn’t just heavy. It’s expensive, fragile, and requires specific equipment and technique to move without damaging the instrument or your floors. Pool tables need to be disassembled, moved, and reassembled correctly or they won’t play right. Safes can weigh 1,000 pounds and need to go down narrow staircases.
We bring the right equipment and the experience to handle specialty moves. That’s part of why we’ve been doing this for 15 years in Suffolk County. If you’ve got something that makes you nervous about moving day, mention it when you call. We’ll walk you through how we handle it and what it costs.
We’re licensed and insured, which matters more than most people realize until something goes wrong. Our crew protects your floors, wraps your furniture, and takes the time to do it right.
That said, if damage happens, you’re covered. We carry liability insurance for your belongings and your property. That means if one of our movers puts a scratch in your hardwood or dings a doorframe, it gets handled. You’re not stuck filing claims with a company that suddenly stops returning calls.
Most damage happens because crews rush, don’t use proper equipment, or aren’t trained to handle residential moves. We’ve been doing this long enough to know where problems happen—tight corners, narrow staircases, heavy items without dollies—and we plan for them. You’re not a training exercise.
We offer both. Some people want to pack their own belongings to save money. Others don’t have the time, the materials, or the patience to wrap every dish and box every book.
If you want us to handle packing, we bring the supplies—boxes, tape, bubble wrap, packing paper—and we pack your belongings properly. Fragile items get wrapped individually. Boxes get labeled. Nothing gets thrown in loose and hoped for the best.
Packing services cost extra, but it’s often worth it if you’re moving a full house, you’re on a tight timeline, or you’ve got valuable items you don’t want to risk packing yourself. We can also do partial packing—maybe just the kitchen and fragile items—and you handle the rest. It’s flexible based on what you actually need, not a one-size-fits-all package.
Two to four weeks is ideal, especially if you’re moving during peak season between May and August. That’s when everyone’s moving—families trying to get settled before school starts, people closing on homes during the busy real estate season.
If you’re moving in the fall or winter, you’ve got more flexibility. We can often accommodate moves with less notice. But if your closing date is set and you know when you’re moving, book as soon as you can. It locks in your date and gives you one less thing to worry about.
If you’re in a bind and need movers faster than that, call anyway. We handle last-minute requests when we can, and if we’re booked, we’ll tell you immediately so you’re not waiting around hoping for a callback. You’ve got enough to coordinate without a moving company leaving you guessing.
