West Point moving facts
Base access
West Point is an active U.S. military reservation in Orange County, within the Hudson Valley. Civilian moving crews cannot assume gate entry. Base clearance, visitor passes, or sponsorship must be arranged before moving day.
Terrain constraints
The surrounding terrain is steep and winding. Narrow historic roads and older homes with tight stairwells can limit access. A 26-foot moving truck may not clear every driveway or street.
Estimates and coverage
A binding or not-to-exceed estimate holds the final price unless extra items or services are added. A non-binding estimate can still change after belongings are loaded. Vague ballpark quotes leave final charges open.
Basic carrier liability is often $0.60 per pound per item. Standard liability rarely covers actual replacement value. Full-value protection covers antiques and high-value loads.
Local pricing
Labor-only moving help in West Point typically runs from $339.56 to $739.66. Peak pricing runs from May through September, on weekends, and at month-end. Mid-week and mid-month dates usually cost less. Demand drops from October through March. Local move pricing depends on hourly rates, minimums, and travel time.

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 Orange County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 28% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
