Los Angeles and New York are two large cities in the United States that attract the attention of lots of visitors every year. People prefer to move to this popular destination, namely from New York to LA, for a number of reasons. Los Angeles is the city of Angels that offers not only great weather suitable for diverse recreational activities but also many other benefits, including economic, educational, and cultural. There’s a huge movie industry with Hollywood stars and a happy multicultural community. These factors make the city very attractive to our customers, who have a huge desire to make the transition from the Big Apple to the City of Angels.
As you move forward, you understand that you need to do a lot of preparation for your move, such as changing utility services, preparing for a flight, booking movers, and packing your belongings. We understand the stress that long-distance moving can produce is inevitable. However, we’re here to help you and your family to move safely and quickly. Are you looking for professional movers from New York to LA? Welcome! Our movers are the best!
The whole process
The moving process from New York City to Los Angeles with our moving company is straightforward. First, you need to register on our website. The Born To Move representative will call you, and you will need to provide them with a list of your items, the desired date of the move, and the desired delivery date. After that, we can provide you with a flat rate for your move, which will include all the information we discussed over the phone. Once you agree on the price, you just need to book a move online. You can do so through our website, without making a call to our representative to schedule the process of your move. There is no deposit required if you choose to hire our moving company.
How much does it cost to move from New York to Los Angeles?
- Born to Move charges $8,000 to move a one-bedroom apartment from New York City to Los Angeles.
- $9,000 is charged for a two-bedroom apartment to move to Los Angeles.
- $10,000 or more if you need to move into a three-bedroom house or apartment.
Whatโs included in the flat price?
At Born To Move, we always offer a flat rate for moving from New York to Los Angeles. That’s why our moving company includes all necessary expenses, such as workers’ payment, truck fees, and fuel taxes, for both directions. You will get the full package when you register with us, and you won’t have to worry about any additional costs. This approach makes it an excellent option for those looking for a white-glove delivery service to Los Angeles. All flat rates are based on the quantity of items and the speed of delivery you require. If you have any questions or have less inventory, please contact one of our representatives to clarify your flat price and moving details.
How soon can you deliver the stuff to Los Angeles from New York City?
It will take about 4 days to deliver your belongings. This fact means we will have 4 days to transport all the items that you prepared for moving from your house in New York to your new home in LA. The distance between these two cities is about 3,000 miles. So, we’ll need to drive a long way to get your things to the required point. That’s why our moving provider always offers guaranteed delivery on the day you requested.
Moving and storage
Are you moving to a storage facility? Born To Move can help you find a storage facility in New York or Brooklyn, or if you want storage in Los Angeles, just let us know. We can accommodate your storage needs to a great extent. If you prefer, you can also get storage on your own, and we will move your stuff to the storage facility according to your request.
If you choose to store your belongings in our facility, there will be additional monthly fees for storage and a shuttle fee for moving your items from your apartment to the storage facility. These fees will be added to your monthly rate.
- For a studio apartment, storage fees are $150/month.
- One-bedroom apartments cost $250/month.
- Youโll pay $350 per month for a two-bedroom apartment.
- Three-bedroom apartments cost $450/month.
The shuttle fee is based on an hourly rate and the date youโll request to move into the facility.
Payment methods
At our moving company, we accept credit cards subject to a 3% processing fee, certified checks, or cash. You will need to pay the driver 50% when they finish loading and another 50% when they complete unloading.
How to pack for a cross-country move from New York to Los Angeles by yourself?
We advise you to pack as much of your stuff as possible. Why? The only reason is that the truck is always shaking when it’s driving 3,000 miles. Well-packed and wrapped furniture and boxes cannot get damaged. That’s why we ask our customers to label their boxes with the room number they were taken from. When they arrive in LA, our movers will make no mistake during unloading. So, they know exactly where to place your stuff. The second thing is about the degree of the movers’ responsibility. When they take the furniture item to wrap it with care, these smart guys have to cover every surface of it. So, good covering will help to avoid any dents or scratches on the surface. In the end, you won’t have to file any moving claims when using the services of our moving company, namely moving from NYC to LA. If you pack by yourself, just pack your items as usual, the way you would pack for any local or long-distance move! Please label all fragile boxes!
Before your big moving day
All you have to do is choose whether to use the Born To Move packing service or not use it. If you choose not to use the service, you will need to pack the boxes yourself. In most cases, customers pack their boxes separately, and this is also the case when we move your stuff interstate. However, if you wish our professional movers from New York will pack your boxes for you. They’ll be quick and accurate to complete this task in a proper way. You can also sign up for packing assistance with our moving company, and our professional movers and packers will do the packing work either on the same day or on the next day, depending on how much stuff you need to be packed. The cost of packing services is $140 per hour, plus the cost of boxes, tape, and packing paper used by our movers. You can provide your own packing supplies if you wish.
What to expect on your moving day?
Our movers from New York to Los Angeles will call when they’re on their way to your house. The second call is when they arrive, so open the door and let them in. Show them which things you’ve taken, what’s staying, and what stuff you’ll take yourself. Show them where the fragile items are kept, so they know what to be careful with. After that, enjoy, relax, and see how we’re doing our best to help move your stuff. After loading everything into the truck (including boxes), you’ll have to pay the driver half of the initial flat rate you were quoted by our company. We’ll check the number of items you need to be moved, and if there’s a significant difference from what you told us (more than 10%), there will be an additional charge, but it will only be a small amount, around $100-$600.
What to expect in the next four days while your belongings are being transported?
There is absolutely nothing to worry about. Our experienced movers will drive the truck from New York straight to Los Angeles for four days. Make sure to tell them when and where to deliver your items. They will arrive on the exact day and time that you need. You can also contact the movers anytime you wish to check the status of the delivery. You will have live GPS tracking if you require it.
What to expect when movers arrive at your place?
Please expect a call from the driver on the morning of the delivery date. They will give you an arrival time, and all you need to do is wait for the moving company to arrive at your house. Once they arrive at your destination, show them the location of your belongings and which rooms they should be placed in. If you have labeled the boxes, simply tell the movers and show them exactly where you want the items to be stored. You can also tell them where to place the furniture before bringing in any large items. Once our New York to Los Angeles movers have assembled your furniture, please double-check the truck for any small items that may have been left behind. After that, please sign the contract, and the movers can begin driving back to New York from Los Angeles.
Post-move procedures
