Moving day doesn’t have to wreck your schedule or your nerves. When the truck pulls up on time, the crew knows what they’re doing, and your furniture arrives without a scratch, that’s when you realize you made the right call.
You’re not dealing with last-minute cancellations or surprise fees. The piano gets moved without damaging your floors. The boxes end up in the right rooms. And you’re not spending your weekend icing your back because you tried to move a couch down a narrow staircase.
That’s what happens when local movers in Commack, NY actually know the area and have done this a few thousand times. You get your time back. Your stuff stays intact. And moving becomes just another task you checked off, not a disaster you survived.
All Terrain Moving and Junk Removal Inc. has been handling moves across Commack and Suffolk County for over 15 years. We’re licensed, insured, and we’ve navigated every tight corner and traffic pattern Long Island can throw at us.
We’re not a national chain with rotating crews. We’re a family-owned moving service that shows up when we say we will, treats your home like it matters, and doesn’t disappear when something needs fixing. Commack residents deal with unique challenges—narrow doorways in older homes, LIE traffic that can derail a schedule, and the need for movers who won’t gouge you during peak season.
We’ve built our reputation here by doing what we say and showing up ready to work. No runarounds. No excuses.
First, we give you an upfront estimate. No hidden fees, no surprise charges when we show up. You’ll know what you’re paying before we load a single box.
On moving day, our crew arrives on time with the right equipment—dollies, straps, padding, and whatever else it takes to move heavy furniture without wrecking your walls or floors. We wrap what needs wrapping, disassemble what needs disassembling, and load the truck in an order that makes sense for unloading.
During transport, your belongings are secured and insured. If we’re moving you across town or across state lines, the same care applies. Once we arrive, we unload everything into the rooms you specify, reassemble furniture, and make sure nothing’s damaged or missing.
If you need packing services before the move or junk removal after, we handle that too. One call covers everything. That’s the point.
Ready to get started?
You’re getting a full-service moving company in Commack, NY that handles local moves, long distance moving, packing, storage services, and junk removal. If you’re downsizing and need to offload furniture, we take care of that. If you need boxes packed professionally because you don’t have time, we do that too.
We move specialty items—pianos, pool tables, safes, antiques—without the drama. Commack homes often have valuable belongings that require more than a guy with a truck and some hope. We use proper equipment and techniques, and everything’s fully insured.
Storage near you is available if your move-in date doesn’t line up with your move-out date. We offer flexible short-term and long-term storage solutions so your belongings stay safe until you’re ready. And if you’re in a bind and need same-day service, we’ll do everything we can to fit you in. Good movers in Suffolk County book up fast, especially during peak season from April through October, but we’ve built our schedule to handle urgent requests when others can’t.
Most local moves in Commack run between $400 and $1,200 depending on the size of your home and how much you’re moving. A small apartment or condo usually sits on the lower end. A larger single-family home with a basement, attic, and garage will cost more.
Hourly rates for moving companies in Commack typically range from $100 to $200 per hour for a two-person crew. If you need more movers or a bigger truck, expect that rate to increase. Long distance moving companies charge differently—usually based on weight and mileage, so a move from Commack to another state could run anywhere from $2,000 to $5,000 or more.
The best way to avoid surprises is to get an upfront estimate. We’ll ask about the size of your home, what you’re moving, and any specialty items like pianos or safes. Then we give you a clear number before we start. No hidden fees, no padding the bill once we show up.
If you’re moving during peak season—April through October—book at least two to four weeks out. Weekends and end-of-month dates fill up first because that’s when most leases end and closings happen. If you wait until the week before, you might get stuck with whoever’s left or pay a premium for last-minute availability.
During the off-season, you have more flexibility. Winter months are slower for moving companies, so you can often book with one to two weeks’ notice and still get your preferred date. That said, if you know your moving date, there’s no downside to booking early.
We also offer same-day and emergency moving services when possible. If another company cancels on you or something comes up last minute, call us. We’ll do what we can to fit you in, but availability isn’t guaranteed during busy periods.
No. If you don’t have time to pack or you’d rather leave it to professionals, we offer full packing services. We bring the boxes, tape, padding, and everything else needed to pack your home efficiently and safely.
Some people prefer to pack personal items themselves—clothes, documents, valuables—and let us handle the kitchen, garage, and bulky items. That’s fine too. Just make sure anything you’re packing yourself is sealed and labeled before we arrive so we can load it without delays.
If you’re doing your own packing, don’t overfill boxes. A box that’s too heavy will break or become impossible to carry safely. Keep heavy items like books in small boxes and lighter items like linens in larger ones. And if you’re moving anything fragile—dishes, glassware, electronics—use plenty of padding. We can provide packing materials if you need them.
Yes. All Terrain Moving and Junk Removal Inc. is fully licensed and insured. If something gets damaged during the move, we’re covered. That said, we take every precaution to make sure nothing gets damaged in the first place—furniture padding, secure loading, careful handling of fragile items.
Most moving companies are required to offer basic liability coverage, which is typically around 60 cents per pound per item. That’s not much if a piece of furniture gets damaged. If you want more comprehensive coverage, you can purchase additional moving insurance through a third-party provider or check if your homeowner’s or renter’s insurance covers moving damages.
We recommend taking photos of valuable items before the move. If something does get damaged, it makes the claims process easier. But in 15 years of moving families across Commack and Long Island, our track record speaks for itself. We treat your belongings like they’re ours.
We handle that regularly. Commack homes, especially older ones, often have narrow doorways, tight staircases, and driveways that don’t fit a full-size moving truck. We’ve moved furniture up three flights of stairs, navigated tight corners, and figured out how to get a couch through a doorway that looked impossible.
If access is tricky, let us know during the estimate. We’ll plan accordingly—whether that means using a smaller truck, bringing extra equipment, or scheduling additional crew members. Sometimes we need to disassemble furniture to get it through a narrow hallway or remove a door temporarily to create more space.
Long Island’s streets aren’t always built for big trucks, so we’re used to working in tight spaces. If parking is limited or we need a permit for street parking, we’ll handle that too. The key is communication upfront so there are no surprises on moving day.
Yes. We move pianos, pool tables, safes, antiques, and other specialty items regularly. These aren’t things you can just toss in the truck and hope for the best. They require proper equipment, technique, and experience.
Pianos are heavy and delicate. We use piano dollies, padding, and straps to move them safely without damaging the instrument or your floors. Pool tables need to be disassembled, moved carefully, and reassembled at the new location. Safes can weigh hundreds of pounds and require specialized equipment to move without injury or property damage.
If you have specialty items, mention them when you call for an estimate. We’ll factor in the extra time and equipment needed. Some moving companies charge extra for specialty items, and we’re upfront about that. But we’ve been doing this long enough that very few items surprise us. If it fits through a door, we can move it.
