About Our DC to New York Moving Company
AT Movers is a Washington DC to New York moving company that grew from one family‑owned 16‑ft truck to a fleet of six 26‑ft box trucks and two sprinter crews. We know the 225‑mile DC → NYC corridor by heart, scheduling pickups across the Capital Beltway and timing tunnel or bridge entries to dodge peak traffic. That route expertise lets us finish at least three full DC to NYC moves every week—on time and on budget. Learn more about us.
Licensed & Insured Interstate Movers DC to NY
We operate under USDOT #3455533 | MC #1126253 and carry $2 million liability coverage—true interstate movers DC to NY.
Expert Team & 24/7 Scheduling
All crew members are W‑2 employees who complete 80 hours of packing and rigging drills and pass annual background checks. They work around your timetable—early‑morning, late‑night, or weekend pickups. A studio run might leave DC at 7 a.m. and reach Midtown by 3 p.m.; an after‑work load can roll out at 6 p.m. for next‑day delivery.

What Affects the Final Cost?
The cost of moving from DC to New York is shaped by a combination of factors. Primarily, the distance of the move significantly impacts the cost, as longer distances typically entail higher prices. The volume and weight of the items being moved are also crucial, with larger or heavier loads requiring more resources and thus increasing the cost. The complexity of the move, including any special handling requirements for fragile or valuable items, can add to the price as well. Furthermore, the time of year can play a role, with peak moving seasons often carrying higher costs due to increased demand. Lastly, any additional services requested, such as packing and unpacking, will be factored into the final price.

Frequently Asked Questions
For people (we only move your belongings), the fastest and most reliable option is the Amtrak Northeast Regional—about 3 hours 30 minutes from Union Station to Penn Station. Buses such as Megabus or BoltBus take 4 – 5 hours but cost less, while flights run roughly 1 hour in the air plus airport time. Driving via I‑95 can be 4 – 5 hours with light traffic, but backups around Baltimore and the Turnpike often add time.
Mid‑week days—Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday—are usually 10‑15 % cheaper because demand is lower than on weekends or month‑end dates.
Booking 2 to 4 weeks in advance secures your preferred date for most moves. We can still handle urgent or same‑day DC to NYC moves when crews are available—just call us.
Moving industry guides suggest tipping 5 – 10 % of the total move cost or about $20 – $50 per mover for a full‑day long‑distance job. Adjust up if the crew handles heavy items, multiple flights of stairs, or bad weather.
