Moving in Manhattan: walk-ups, doorman buildings, COI paperwork, tight loading windows

Moving in Manhattan means planning around the building as much as the boxes. Doorman buildings on the Upper East Side and Upper West Side often book the service elevator in set time slots. Many ask your mover for a certificate of insurance (COI) before move day.

Older walk-ups in the East Village, Lower East Side and Hell's Kitchen can mean four or five flights of stairs. Street parking for a truck is hard to find, so movers often plan where to stop well in advance. Weekday mornings tend to be calmer than the end of the month, when leases turn over.
