Experienced Apartment Movers Who Know Your Building

Apartment moves are rarely simple. Navigating elevators, strict parking restrictions, loading docks, and specific time windows can make the move feel complicated. When moving into a new apartment, you need a local team with the experience to anticipate these challenges before the truck ever arrives.

Whether you are leaving a luxury high-rise, settling into a cooperative (co-op), or navigating a narrow walk-up, Slattery Moving & Storage has the local building experience you need. We know that securing your Certificate of Insurance (COI), respecting homeowner’s association (HOA) rules, and maintaining clear communication matter just as much as carrying boxes.

Getting Your Guaranteed Quote is Simple

If you are a renter or buyer trying to budget for a move, vague hourly estimates with a jump in price when the crew arrives are the last thing you need. We review your inventory, assess the stairs or elevator situation, and provide a single flat-rate price.

Your Move Manager helps coordinate Certificate of Insurance requirements, approved moving hours, and elevator reservations directly with property management, preventing delays or building conflicts.

Our experienced crews know how to work efficiently through narrow hallways, walk-ups, loading areas, and limited parking conditions.

Complete Property Protection

We arrive prepared with blue floor runners, wall and doorway shields, and elevator padding to protect the building’s common areas and your belongings.

We safely take apart large items like bed frames and dining tables to get them through narrow doorways, then fully rebuild them at your new address.

Additional Relocation Support

Moved interstate (NY-> FL) and everything went great. It involved use of their storage facility for ~ 2 months and I'm very happy with the outcome. No changes in the quoted cost. Easy to reach by phone. I made the right decision to use Slattery.

They were an amazing team from customer service, to movers. What I really liked was that there was a video call to see what you are taking on your move. Although I did not use the junk removal service , that was an option I was going to use. The movers were fast , professional and kind. They took care of our items like it was there’s. Just an great experience overall. I had recommendations from Facebook groups and my realtor in which we purchased our home. Moved from Tarrytown, Ny to Suffern, Ny.

Slattery Moving has done a wonderful job of moving all my stuff from New York all the way to Florida. They kept all the things safe and was very well organized with everything. I recommend this moving company to anyone those who are moving especially long distance. They have a good size truck that can fit any of your things. Chris was very responsive with all my communications and they were prompt with everything and delivered all my stuff on time as well as picked up my stuff on time. Very professional with everything. I definitely recommend.

Slattery was booked for my move date, but one of the owners still opted to stay on the phone with me for 30 minutes to provide expert advice on how to choose a mover. Very knowledgeable, experienced, and caring…and his insight was also very helpful!

Frequently Asked Questions About Apartment & High-Rise Moving

Do you provide Certificates of Insurance (COI) for apartment buildings?

Yes. Slattery Moving & Storage is fully licensed and insured. Your dedicated Move Manager will work directly with your building’s management company to provide the required Certificate of Insurance (COI) well before moving day, ensuring there are no delays or access issues.

Absolutely. Reserving a service elevator is critical for high-rise and mid-rise moves. While you must request the time slot from your building management, your Move Manager will help you determine how much time to book based on your inventory, ensuring the schedule aligns perfectly with our arrival.

We are highly experienced in working within strict time windows set by property managers. We plan our arrival and crew size accordingly so that your move is completed efficiently within the approved building moving hours, preventing any fines or conflicts with your landlord or HOA.

Walk-ups and narrow staircases require more time and physical effort, which is factored into your initial estimate. Because we provide a Guaranteed Quote based on the specific details of your move, you will know the exact cost upfront. There are no surprise fees added on moving day just because we encounter stairs.

We review the parking situation and loading dock instructions during the quoting process. If your building has a dedicated loading dock, low clearance limits, or requires street parking permits, we plan our truck size and staging strategy in advance so moving day runs efficiently.

Protecting the building’s common areas is essential to getting your security deposit back and keeping property managers happy. Our crews lay down blue floor runners and use wall protection, doorway shields, and elevator padding to prevent scuffs, scratches, and damage during the move.

Yes. Moving into a luxury high-rise or a doorman building requires a high level of professionalism and strict adherence to building protocols. Our uniformed crews are trained to operate cleanly and quietly, respecting the building staff and other residents while moving your belongings.

Yes. Your Move Manager will help address and coordinate the necessary requirements with your property management, including loading instructions, COIs, and specific move-in/move-out procedures, so you don’t have to navigate the red tape alone.

Ready to Move Forward with Confidence?

Don’t let tight stairwells, elevator rules, or moving-day surprises overwhelm you. Choose the trusted community mover that brings preparation, clear pricing, and careful protection to every job.
