Hear from Our Customers
You’ve got enough to think about during a move. Packing, utilities, address changes, cleaning. The last thing you need is calling three different companies to figure out who’s moving your furniture and who’s taking that old couch you don’t want anymore.
Here’s what actually happens when you book with us. One crew shows up. We move what you’re keeping and remove what you’re not. Same day, same truck, same team. You’re not waiting around for a junk removal company to show up three days later while your old place sits half-empty and you’re still paying rent.
That’s the difference. We’re a full service moving company that gets both jobs done while you focus on what matters. Getting settled, not managing logistics.
All Terrain Moving and Junk Removal has been serving Patchogue and Suffolk County for over three years. We’re locally owned, which means we know the area. We know the traffic patterns, the building restrictions, the narrow staircases in older homes.
We’re licensed and insured because that’s not optional. You’re trusting us with your belongings, and we take that seriously. Our crews are trained to handle everything from standard furniture to pianos, safes, and pool tables. No job is too small or too complicated.
Patchogue has seen a lot of movement lately. People coming in from the five boroughs looking for more space. Long-time residents downsizing or relocating within Suffolk County. We’ve helped families, businesses, and everyone in between make those transitions without the usual headaches.
First, you call or reach out online. We ask about what you’re moving, where you’re going, and what you want removed. If you need same-day service, we’ll tell you if we can make it happen. No runaround.
Next, we give you a clear estimate. The average local move in Patchogue runs around $1,145 for full service, but your actual cost depends on what you’re moving and how much junk you need hauled. We don’t lowball you and then add fees later. What we quote is what you pay unless something changes on your end.
On moving day, our crew arrives with the right equipment. We protect your floors, wrap your furniture, and load everything carefully. If you’ve got items to remove, we handle that at the same time. One truck, one trip. Once we’re at your new place, we unload, place items where you want them, and haul away the junk.
You’re done. No follow-up appointments. No second crew to coordinate. You can start unpacking while we handle the disposal.

Every move includes professional loading and unloading with proper equipment. We bring dollies, straps, blankets, and whatever else is needed to protect your belongings. Our crews know how to navigate tight corners, stairs, and tricky doorways without damaging walls or furniture.
If you need packing services, we offer that too. Some people want to pack themselves to save money. Others would rather pay someone else to do it right. Both options work. We’ll pack your valuables, label boxes, and make sure fragile items are protected.
Here’s what makes us different as a local moving company in Patchogue: we also remove junk during the same visit. Old appliances, broken furniture, boxes of stuff you’ve been meaning to get rid of—we take it all. That’s not standard with most affordable moving companies. Usually, you’d need to hire a separate junk removal service, which means more money and more scheduling.
We serve Patchogue, Suffolk County, Nassau County, and parts of Queens. If you’re moving locally or need an estate cleanout, we can handle it. And if you’ve got specialty items like pianos or safes, we’ve moved those hundreds of times. We know what we’re doing.
The average full-service move in Patchogue costs around $1,145, but your actual price depends on how much you’re moving and how far you’re going. If you only need labor help without the truck, that typically runs closer to $442. Distance matters too—moving across town is cheaper than moving from Patchogue to Nassau County.
We give you an upfront estimate based on what you tell us. If you’ve got a one-bedroom apartment with standard furniture, that’s one price. If you’re moving a four-bedroom house with a piano and a pool table, that’s another. We don’t hit you with surprise fees unless something changes on your end, like adding extra stops or more items than you originally mentioned.
Junk removal is separate but can be bundled. If you’re moving and need us to haul away a couch, a mattress, and some old boxes, we’ll give you a combined rate that’s cheaper than hiring two companies. That’s one of the main reasons people call us instead of a standard moving company.
Yes, if we have availability. Same-day service depends on our schedule and how much notice you give us. If you call in the morning and need help that afternoon, there’s a chance we can make it work. If you call at 4 p.m. and need someone there by 5 p.m., that’s tougher.
We’ve had customers call us the night before their move because another company cancelled last minute. It happens more than you’d think. Some movers overbook or don’t show up, and suddenly you’re scrambling. If we can fit you in, we will. But the earlier you call, the better your chances.
Same-day service is especially useful if you’re dealing with an urgent situation—like a lease ending, a closing date that moved up, or a family emergency. We understand that not every move is planned weeks in advance. Sometimes life just happens, and you need someone reliable who can move fast.
Yes. We’ve moved pianos, safes, pool tables, and other heavy or awkward items more times than we can count. These aren’t things you want to handle yourself or trust to a crew that doesn’t know what they’re doing. A piano can weigh 500 to 1,200 pounds depending on the type. A safe can be even heavier. One wrong move and you’ve got a damaged floor, a broken item, or worse—an injury.
We use the right equipment. Dollies, straps, ramps, and sometimes extra hands depending on the item. We also know how to navigate stairs, tight hallways, and doorways that barely fit. If your piano needs to go up to a second floor, we’ll figure out the safest way to do it.
This is one area where experience really matters. A standard moving company might say they can handle it, but if they’ve only done it a few times, you’re taking a risk. We’ve done it enough to know what works and what doesn’t. If you’ve got a specialty item, let us know upfront so we can plan accordingly.
We cover Patchogue, Suffolk County, Nassau County, and parts of Queens. If you’re moving within Long Island or from one of the boroughs to Long Island, we can handle it. We’re familiar with the area, the traffic patterns, and the types of buildings you’ll find in each location.
Suffolk County includes towns like Brookhaven, Islip, and Smithtown. Nassau County covers areas like Hempstead, Oyster Bay, and North Hempstead. In Queens, we primarily serve neighborhoods close to Long Island, like Ditmars and surrounding areas. If you’re not sure whether we cover your location, just ask. We’ll tell you straight up.
Being local matters because we know what to expect. We know that traffic on the Long Island Expressway can add an hour to a move if we’re not careful. We know that some older buildings in Patchogue have narrow staircases and no elevators. We plan around those things so your move doesn’t take twice as long as it should.
That depends on how much risk you’re comfortable with. By law, moving companies provide basic liability coverage, which is typically 60 cents per pound per item. So if we damage a 30-pound item, you’d get $18. That’s not much if the item is worth $500.
You can purchase additional coverage if you want more protection. Some people do this for high-value items like antiques, electronics, or expensive furniture. Others skip it because they’re moving standard household goods and feel the risk is low. It’s your call.
Here’s what we recommend: if you’ve got items that would be expensive to replace, consider the extra coverage. If most of your stuff is Ikea furniture and everyday household items, you’re probably fine with the basic coverage. We take care with everything we move, but accidents can happen. A leg breaks off a table, a box gets dropped, a wall gets scuffed. Extra insurance gives you peace of mind if something goes wrong.
Two to four weeks is ideal, especially if you’re moving during the busy season. Most people move between May and September because the weather’s better and kids are out of school. If you’re moving during that window, book as early as you can. Weekends fill up fast, and if you wait until the last minute, you might not get your preferred date.
If you’re moving between October and April, you’ve got more flexibility. Fewer people move during the colder months, so availability is better. You can sometimes book a week out and still get the date you want. But again, the earlier you call, the better.
That said, we’ve handled plenty of last-minute moves. If you’re in a bind and need someone quickly, reach out anyway. We’ll do what we can to fit you in. Just know that the more notice you give us, the easier it is to plan around your schedule and make sure we’ve got the right crew and equipment ready for your move.
