What To Expect
Housing in Manhattan and much of Brooklyn is dense and apartment-based, so measuring doorways, stairwells, and lift sizes in advance matters more here than almost anywhere else in the US. Many buildings also require a certificate of insurance from your mover before they’ll allow a delivery — we can provide this as part of your move.
