Hear from Our Customers
You’re not dealing with scratched floors or mystery charges at the end. Your furniture fits through doorways that weren’t built for modern couches. Your landlord gets their keys back on time, and you’re not scrambling to find another crew because someone canceled last minute.
That’s what happens when your moving company actually knows Stony Brook properties. The narrow staircases in older homes near campus. The tight hallways in apartment complexes along Route 25A. The university move-in schedules that don’t leave room for delays.
You get a price before anything gets loaded. You get crews who’ve done this hundreds of times in Suffolk County. And if you need it done today, there’s a real chance we can make that happen.
All Terrain Moving started because people around here needed a moving company that didn’t cancel, didn’t charge by the hour just to drag things out, and didn’t treat every job like it was their first time handling furniture.
Matt runs the operation. He’s the one you’ll talk to, and he’s the one who makes sure your schedule gets respected. We’re licensed and insured across Suffolk County, which matters more than most people think until something goes wrong.
We’ve moved students out of dorms during finals week. We’ve cleared estates on the North Shore. We’ve helped families downsize from 10,000-square-foot homes and college kids move a couch across town. Stony Brook and the surrounding area isn’t new to us.
You call or message with what you need moved and where it’s going. We ask a few questions about stairs, elevators, parking, and what you’re moving. Then we give you an estimate based on truck space, not hours.
If the timeline works, we confirm a day and window. Sometimes that’s same-day if our schedule allows. Most times it’s within 24 to 48 hours.
When we show up, we walk through everything with you before loading a single item. You see the truck, you see how much space your stuff will take, and you know the final price before we start. No surprises at the end.
We load, transport, and unload. If something needs extra care, we handle it that way. If you’re working around a landlord’s deadline or a closing date, we work around that too. Once everything’s where it needs to be, you’re done.

You’re getting a full-service moving company that handles residential and commercial jobs across Stony Brook, Suffolk County, Nassau County, and Queens. That means apartments, houses, dorm rooms, offices, and storage unit cleanouts.
Most residential moves in this area run between $150 and $500 depending on volume. You’re not paying hourly, so there’s no incentive to move slow. Pricing is based on how much truck space you use, and we confirm that number on-site before anything gets touched.
We also handle junk removal if you’re clearing out before a move or after. Items get sorted for donation when possible, recycled properly, and disposed of in compliance with Suffolk County regulations. That matters here because the fines for improper dumping aren’t small.
If you’re near Stony Brook University, we already know the move-in calendar, the parking restrictions, and which buildings have loading docks. If you’re in one of the older residential neighborhoods with tight spaces and tricky layouts, we’ve been there too. Long Island properties have their quirks, and we’ve seen most of them.
Yes, when our schedule allows. Same-day availability isn’t guaranteed, but it happens more often than you’d think, especially for smaller moves or junk removal jobs.
If you’re dealing with a last-minute landlord deadline, a closing that moved up, or another company that bailed, call us as early in the day as possible. We’ll tell you straight whether we can fit it in or not.
Most moves get scheduled within 24 to 48 hours. But if you’re in a bind and we have a crew available, we’ll make it work. That’s one of the advantages of being local and family-owned—we can move faster than the bigger companies.
We price based on truck space, not time. That means you’re paying for volume, and we’re not dragging out the job to run up an hourly bill.
Most residential moves in Stony Brook fall between $150 and $500. Smaller jobs—like a few pieces of furniture or a studio apartment—land on the lower end. Larger homes or full-house moves with more stuff push toward the higher end or beyond, depending on what’s involved.
When we arrive, we walk through everything with you and confirm the price before loading. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying before anything leaves the property. No surprise fees, no hidden charges for stairs or mileage within our service area.
We deal with that constantly. Long Island homes, especially the ones built in the 1950s and earlier, weren’t designed with king-size mattresses and sectional couches in mind.
Our crews know how to angle furniture, remove door frames when necessary, and protect walls while maneuvering through tight spaces. We’ve moved entire households out of walk-ups with staircases that barely fit a person, let alone a dresser.
If something truly won’t fit, we’ll tell you before we waste your time trying. But nine times out of ten, it’s just a matter of experience and patience. We’ve handled enough Stony Brook properties to know what works.
We can do either. If you want to pack yourself, that’s fine—just make sure boxes are sealed and ready to go. If you’d rather have us handle it, we can pack fragile items, wrap furniture, and get everything load-ready.
Packing services add to the overall cost, but they also save you time and reduce the risk of damage during transport. We bring the materials and know how to pack things so they don’t shift or break in the truck.
For most people, a hybrid approach works best: you pack personal items and clothes, we handle the furniture, electronics, and anything breakable. We can talk through what makes sense for your situation when you call.
Yes. We’re fully licensed and insured to operate in Suffolk County, Nassau County, and Queens. That’s not just a formality—it protects you if something goes wrong.
Insurance covers damage to your property or belongings during the move. Licensing means we’re operating legally and following local regulations, including proper disposal standards for junk removal.
A lot of people don’t think to ask about this until after they’ve hired someone. But if a company isn’t insured and they put a hole in your wall or drop something valuable, you’re stuck with the bill. We carry the coverage so you don’t have to worry about that.
We cover Stony Brook and the surrounding areas throughout Suffolk County, Nassau County, and parts of Queens. That includes Port Jefferson, Setauket, Lake Grove, Centereach, Smithtown, and most towns along the North Shore.
If you’re near Stony Brook University or anywhere within a reasonable distance, we’ve probably worked there before. Our crews are familiar with the area, the traffic patterns, and the types of properties you’ll find around here.
If you’re not sure whether we service your specific location, just ask. We’ll let you know right away if it’s within our range or if we’d need to adjust pricing for distance.
