Moving Companies in Rye, NY
Keeping Rye moving costs at the low end
Westchester County local moves are billed by the hour, while interstate moves run on weight and mileage. A local move averages $1,400; a 1,000-mile long-distance move averages $5,450. Typical local figures are $400–$800 for a studio or one-bedroom and $1,100–$2,500 for a 2–3 bedroom home. Long-distance jobs often span $2,200–$10,500+.
Hourly labor is the negotiable part. For loading or unloading only, helpers run $85–$115 per hour per helper; Rye labor-only jobs typically total $365.34–$734.69. Parking is the main hidden lever in Rye—tight streets, commercial vehicle rules, and permit requirements can push the truck blocks away and add paid walking time. Ask who handles Rye Police Department street reservations before booking.
Fees to pin down first
- Require a visual walkthrough; phone-only estimates often turn into "more volume" price hikes on moving day.
- Confirm NYSDOT licensing for moves staying inside New York State.
- Get written accessorial rates for stairs, long carries, pianos or safes, and furniture disassembly.
- For interstate moves, request a written binding or non-binding estimate and ask about consolidated loads.
Standard liability is usually $0.60 per pound per article—a 30-pound $2,000 television would yield $18. Compare Full Value Protection or your own homeowners/renters policy instead.
The bottom of every local range means fewer crew hours: clear the path, reserve parking, and use labor-only crews when you only need loading. Then choose among the directory below.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Westchester County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 12% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
