You’re not looking for the cheapest option. You’re looking for the one that doesn’t damage your piano, doesn’t ghost you after taking a deposit, and doesn’t turn a stressful day into a nightmare.
When you work with movers who know what we’re doing, your belongings arrive intact. Your walls stay scuff-free. Your schedule doesn’t get derailed by no-shows or last-minute price hikes.
You get transparency from the estimate through the final box. You get guys who know how to navigate tight hallways and multiple flights of stairs without excuses. And you get it done on your timeline—even if that means same-day service because your last company bailed.
That’s what moving service should look like in Wheatley Heights. No drama. No surprises. Just professionals who treat your $500K+ home and everything in it with the care it deserves.
All Terrain Moving and Junk Removal Inc. is owner-operated, licensed, and insured. Scott and Matt run the operation, and we’re the ones you’ll talk to when you call—not a call center three states away.
We’ve moved everything from studio apartments to 10,000 square foot homes across Suffolk County, Nassau County, and Queens. We know Long Island traffic. We know building access challenges. We know what it takes to move a baby grand down a narrow staircase without scratching the finish or the walls.
Wheatley Heights has some of the highest property values on Long Island, and homeowners here expect more than a guy with a truck. You expect professionals who communicate, show up on time, and don’t hold your belongings hostage for extra fees. That’s baseline for us, not a selling point.
You call or submit a request. We ask about the size of your home, what you’re moving, any specialty items like pool tables or safes, and your timeline. If you need same-day service, we’ll tell you straight up if we can make it happen.
We give you a clear estimate based on what you told us—no hidden fees, no bait-and-switch pricing. If something changes on moving day, we talk about it before we do anything. You’re not getting surprised with a bill that’s double the quote.
On moving day, we show up on time with the right equipment. We protect your floors, wrap your furniture, and handle fragile items the way they need to be handled. If you’re moving long distance or need storage services, we coordinate that too.
Everything gets loaded, transported, and unloaded where you want it. We don’t disappear halfway through the job, and we don’t rush through it just to get to the next one. When we’re done, your stuff is where it’s supposed to be—in the same condition it started.

We move residential and commercial. Small apartments, large estates, office relocations—if it needs to go from point A to point B, we handle it.
Specialty items are part of the job, not an upcharge surprise. Pianos, pool tables, gun safes, antiques, artwork—we’ve moved all of it. We know how to disassemble what needs disassembling and reassemble it correctly on the other end.
Packing services are available if you don’t have the time or don’t want the hassle. We bring the materials, pack everything properly, and label it so you’re not digging through mystery boxes for a week. For Wheatley Heights homeowners with long commutes—some of you are spending over an hour each way—the last thing you want is to spend your evenings packing.
We also offer junk removal and cleanout services. Moving out of a home and need to clear decades of accumulated stuff? We handle that too. One call, one company, less coordination headache for you.
Storage solutions are available for long-distance moves or if your new place isn’t ready yet. We work with secure facilities and can coordinate the logistics so you’re not stuck between leases with nowhere to put your belongings.
Cost depends on the size of your move, distance, and what you’re moving. Local moving companies in Wheatley Heights typically charge by the hour for local moves, with rates varying based on crew size and truck needs.
For a typical three-bedroom home, you’re looking at a full day with a crew of three to four movers. Specialty items like pianos or safes may require additional equipment or labor. Long distance moving companies price differently—usually by weight and mileage.
We give you a clear estimate upfront based on what you tell us. If you’re comparing quotes, make sure you’re comparing apples to apples. Some companies lowball the estimate and then hit you with fees on moving day. We don’t do that. What we quote is what you pay, unless something major changes that we discuss with you first.
Yes. We’ve moved baby grands, uprights, pool tables, gun safes, and oversized furniture through tight spaces, down stairs, and into homes with challenging layouts.
Specialty items require the right equipment and experience. A piano isn’t just heavy—it’s delicate and expensive. You can’t just strap it to a dolly and hope for the best. We use piano boards, heavy-duty straps, and proper padding. We know how to distribute weight and navigate corners without damaging the instrument or your walls.
Same goes for pool tables. They need to be disassembled correctly, moved carefully, and reassembled with precision or they won’t play right. If you’ve invested in high-end items, you want movers who’ve done this before—not guys learning on your dime.
We do when our schedule allows. If another company cancels on you last minute—and it happens more than it should—call us. We’ve helped plenty of people who got left hanging by unreliable movers.
Same-day service depends on crew availability and the size of your move. A one-bedroom apartment? Much easier to fit in than a four-bedroom house. But we’ll tell you straight up whether we can make it work.
Long Island has a tight housing market with low vacancy rates, and moves often need to happen on specific dates because of closing schedules or lease terms. We get that. If we can help you avoid a nightmare scenario where you’re stuck between properties with nowhere to go, we will.
If you’re packing yourself, have everything boxed and ready to go before we arrive. Label boxes by room so we know where they go in the new place. Disassemble any furniture you’re comfortable taking apart—beds, tables, anything modular.
Clear a path. If we’re navigating tight hallways or stairs, make sure there’s nothing in the way. In Wheatley Heights, many homes have long driveways and multiple entry points—let us know the best access route when we arrive.
If you have items that need special care, point them out. We’ll handle everything carefully, but if something is particularly fragile or valuable, we want to know upfront so we can take extra precautions.
Make sure parking is accessible. Some neighborhoods have narrow streets or limited parking near the entrance. If we need a permit or special access, handle that ahead of time so we’re not wasting your time on moving day dealing with logistics.
Check that we’re licensed and insured. Any legitimate moving service will have both and won’t hesitate to provide proof. If a company dodges that question or gives you a runaround, walk away.
Read reviews, but read them critically. Look for patterns. If multiple people mention the same problem—surprise fees, damaged items, no-shows—that’s a red flag. One bad review might be an outlier. Ten bad reviews with the same complaint? That’s who they are.
Get everything in writing. A verbal estimate means nothing if the price doubles on moving day. Legitimate local movers will give you a written quote that outlines what’s included, how they charge, and what could cause the price to change.
Ask questions. How long have they been in business? Do they handle specialty items? What happens if something gets damaged? If they’re vague or evasive, that’s a problem. We’ve been doing this long enough to answer any question you throw at us, and we’re happy to do it.
Yes. We work with secure storage facilities and can coordinate short-term or long-term storage if there’s a gap between when you move out and when you can move in.
This happens a lot with long distance moving companies where timing doesn’t line up perfectly. Maybe your closing date got pushed back, or your new place needs work before you can move in. We’ll store your belongings safely and deliver them when you’re ready.
Storage near Wheatley Heights is accessible, and we handle the logistics. You’re not renting a unit, moving everything yourself, and then hiring movers again later. We take it from your old place, store it, and deliver it to your new place when the time comes. One company, one process, less hassle for you.
