You’re not looking for the cheapest quote. You’re looking for the move that doesn’t turn into a nightmare halfway through.
That means a crew that shows up on time, knows how to navigate narrow West Hills driveways without scraping your landscaping, and doesn’t suddenly triple the price when the truck arrives. It means your grandmother’s china cabinet doesn’t show up in pieces. It means someone answers the phone when you call with a question about timing or access.
We’ve done this for over 15 years on Long Island. We know the HOA rules, the parking restrictions, the timing crunch when closings don’t line up. We’re licensed and insured, which sounds basic until you realize how many movers operating around here aren’t.
When the move is done, your stuff is where it’s supposed to be, intact, and you didn’t spend the day wondering if you made a huge mistake.
All Terrain Moving and Junk Removal Inc. has been serving West Hills and the surrounding Long Island area for over 15 years. We’re not a national franchise with rotating crews who’ve never seen your neighborhood before.
We’re based in Islandia. We know West Hills has homes worth over a million dollars with furnishings that match. We know you can’t just back a truck up anywhere and start loading. We’ve moved pianos down those staircases, navigated those tight corners, and coordinated with real estate attorneys when timing gets messy.
You can verify our license and insurance before we touch a single box. Our crews are trained, our equipment is maintained, and we show up when we say we will. That’s not marketing talk—it’s how we’ve stayed in business this long in a market where word travels fast.
First, you call or contact us for a free estimate. We ask real questions about what you’re moving, where it’s going, and what complications might exist—narrow driveways, stairs, specialty items like safes or pool tables. You get an upfront price, not a lowball number that magically increases on moving day.
When you book, we confirm your date and give you a realistic time window. If you need packing services, we bring the materials and handle it. If you’re packing yourself, we can walk you through what actually protects your stuff versus what just makes you feel better.
On moving day, the crew shows up in the window we gave you. They walk through with you, note any existing damage to furniture, and start loading with the right equipment for the job. Specialty items get handled properly—pianos get dollies and padding, not hope and adrenaline.
During the move, you can reach us if something changes. At the destination, we unload, place items where you want them, and do a final walkthrough. If something’s wrong, you address it then—not three days later when we’re impossible to reach.
That’s it. No drama, no surprises, no wondering if your stuff is going to show up.

Our full service moving company handles residential moves, commercial relocations, long distance moving, packing, junk removal, and storage coordination. You’re not calling five different companies to get one job done.
For West Hills specifically, we account for the local challenges. Many homes here have valuable antiques, artwork, and furniture that require specialty handling. We’ve got the equipment and experience for pianos, gun safes, pool tables—items that get damaged when movers try to wing it. We know which streets have parking restrictions and when you need permits. We’ve coordinated enough closing-day moves to know your attorney’s probably going to call at 2 PM and push everything back an hour.
Pricing is straightforward. You get a free estimate based on real information about your move. We’re not the cheapest option, and that’s intentional. The cheapest quote usually comes from someone who’s either unlicensed, underinsured, or planning to hit you with fees once your belongings are on the truck.
We’re licensed by New York State and fully insured. That costs money to maintain, but it means you have recourse if something goes wrong. Our crews are trained and experienced, not day laborers hired that morning. We use proper equipment, not blankets and hope.
If you need same-day or emergency service because timing got complicated, we can usually make it work. If you’re downsizing and need junk removal along with the move, we handle both. You’re paying for a local moving company that’s been doing this long enough to know what actually matters.
Most local moves in West Hills run between $800 and $3,500 depending on the size of your home, how much you’re moving, and what specialty items are involved. A two-bedroom apartment is different from a four-bedroom house with a piano and a gun safe.
We give you a free estimate upfront based on real information. That means we ask about stairs, long carries, narrow access, specialty items, and packing needs. The estimate you get is what you pay unless something significant changes that you didn’t tell us about.
If someone quotes you substantially less, ask what’s not included. Ask if they’re licensed and insured. Ask what happens if something breaks. The cheapest quote often becomes the most expensive move once hidden fees, damages, and headaches get factored in.
For spring and summer moves or weekend moves, booking 2-4 weeks ahead is smart. West Hills is a busy area, and good movers fill up fast during peak season.
If your closing date just got moved up or you need same-day service, call us anyway. We keep some flexibility in the schedule for emergencies and last-minute situations. We can’t always accommodate it, but we can usually figure something out.
Off-peak times—fall, winter, weekdays—give you more flexibility. You’ll often get better availability and sometimes better pricing because we’re not slammed. If your timeline allows it, moving on a Tuesday in October is a lot easier than moving on a Saturday in June.
Yes. We’re fully licensed by New York State and carry both liability coverage and workers’ compensation insurance. You can verify our credentials before you book.
This matters more than most people realize. A lot of movers operating on Long Island aren’t properly licensed or insured. They offer cheap rates because they’re cutting corners on the legal requirements. If they damage your property or someone gets hurt, you have limited or no recourse.
When you hire a licensed and insured moving company, you’re protected. If something breaks, there’s a claims process. If someone gets injured on your property, their medical bills don’t become your problem. It costs more to operate this way, which is why our prices aren’t the lowest—but it’s also why you can sleep at night after booking us.
Yes. We move pianos, gun safes, pool tables, antiques, artwork, and other high-value or difficult items regularly. We’ve got the equipment and the experience to do it without damage.
Pianos require specific dollies, padding, and knowledge about weight distribution and stairway angles. Safes need different equipment depending on size and weight—some need machinery, not just muscle. Pool tables have to be disassembled and reassembled correctly or they won’t play right afterward.
If you’ve got specialty items, mention them when you request an estimate. We’ll ask the right questions about dimensions, weight, access, and stairs so we can bring the right equipment and crew. These items get priced separately because they require extra time, tools, and expertise—but at least you know the cost upfront instead of discovering it on moving day.
We do a walkthrough before loading and note any existing damage to your furniture. We use proper packing materials and equipment to protect your belongings during transport. Our crews are trained to handle items correctly, and we’ve been doing this long enough to know what causes damage and how to prevent it.
If something does get damaged despite our precautions, we address it immediately. You note it during the final walkthrough at your destination, and we start the claims process. Because we’re licensed and insured, there’s a formal procedure for handling damages—not just a shrug and a “sorry.”
This is another reason to hire a legitimate local moving company instead of the cheapest option. Unlicensed movers have no accountability. If they break something, your only recourse is arguing with someone who’s already got your money and no incentive to make it right.
We offer full packing services if you want them. We bring the materials—boxes, tape, padding, specialty containers for fragile items—and our crew packs everything properly. This is especially helpful if you’re short on time, dealing with a lot of fragile items, or just don’t want to spend weeks packing.
If you prefer to pack yourself, that’s fine too. We can provide guidance on what actually protects your belongings versus what just makes you feel productive. Most people underestimate how much padding fragile items need and overestimate how sturdy their boxes are.
We also handle junk removal if you’re downsizing or clearing out items you don’t want to move. A lot of West Hills residents are moving to smaller places or dealing with estate situations where half the stuff needs to go. We can coordinate the whole thing—pack what you’re keeping, remove what you’re not, and move everything to the new location in one process instead of three separate projects.
