NYC to Pennsylvania movers with a flat price, guaranteed to the door

A Pennsylvania move starts on your New York stairs and finishes at a rowhouse doorway in Philadelphia or a driveway somewhere past Harrisburg. The price covering all of it is guaranteed before anything leaves your apartment.

Step 1 of 4: Move

Step 1: Move

First, the move itself

Where you're leaving and where you're landing.

Street address is best, but a neighborhood works.

Even just the borough is fine if you're not sure yet.

NYC to Pennsylvania

One crew from door to door

Everything that can hold up moving morning sits in your New York management office rather than anywhere in Pennsylvania. The certificate of insurance reaches that office from our desk, and where the building keeps a freight elevator, the booking goes in under our name. Where the truck will sit on your block is settled before the morning comes. If a call suits you better than a form, dial (212) 203-3171.

One crew keeps your move from the first stair of the day to the last hallway in the new place, with no handover to a second company somewhere on the turnpike. Everything is padded up and strapped tight for the miles in between, and the day your things arrive is settled together before anything is booked.

Inside the price

Everything a Pennsylvania booking carries with it

Everything on this list rides along on every Pennsylvania booking, already counted in the one price we shake on before the load-out.

  • The flat price locked in before loading morning
  • The COI handled between us and your building's management
  • A freight elevator slot reserved ahead of time
  • Loading-day parking on your block scouted early
  • Furniture wrapped and strapped for the turnpike miles
  • Floor runners and door-frame padding down before the first carry
  • Each box named for its landing room in Pennsylvania
  • The same crew from your old stairs to your new ones

One flat price, locked in before moving day

Your quote is a guaranteed flat fee for the whole job. If moving day runs long, you still pay the number you agreed.

Flat-fee pricing

How we price a move to Pennsylvania

What the truck will carry
a Greenpoint one-bedroom takes up far less truck than a family home bound for the Main Line.
Which end of the state
Philadelphia sits under a hundred miles from the city while Pittsburgh waits at the far end of the turnpike, and the mileage is priced as it really is.
Access at the two addresses
a walk-up load-out in Manhattan and a narrow rowhouse staircase in Philadelphia both go into the price, because the carrying is half the job.
The block you're loading from
no loading zone on your street simply means the truck's place at the curb is arranged days before pickup morning.
Help with the boxes
hand us a few fragile cupboards to pack or every room in the place, and either way it joins the price.

Lock the price before you cross the Hudson

Tell us what is coming out of the apartment and which corner of Pennsylvania it points to, and we'll answer with one guaranteed price for the whole job.

Add-on

Packing that holds for the whole ride

Cartons get filled to the top and taped shut, with paper wherever two things would otherwise touch, so nothing has room to shift once the turnpike starts. Whatever share of the packing you pass to us is priced into the quote alongside the drive.

Packing services

Storage, picked up and brought back

If the new place isn’t ready yet, we arrange the storage and load your things in ourselves, still wrapped from the move. When you have the keys, we bring it all back.

Pennsylvania moving FAQs

Is the price really guaranteed the whole way to Pennsylvania?

It is. Your answers about the two homes and everything travelling between them give the price its shape, mileage included, and once you accept it the number holds whatever the turnpike does that day.

Whose license covers the interstate part of the move?

Ours. Keepsake is licensed for interstate moving in its own right, so the company you book is the one that actually drives your things over the state line and up to the new door. The paperwork behind that is all laid out on our licenses page.

How soon after pickup will everything reach Pennsylvania?

Philadelphia and Pittsburgh sit at opposite ends of the state, so the delivery day is worked out from your new address and your dates while the quote is built, and it goes down on paper before anything is confirmed.

Do you offer packing for Pennsylvania moves?

Yes, in whatever share suits you. Hand us nothing but the glassware, or have every room wrapped and boxed before loading day, and the packing is folded into the same guaranteed total either way.

What if my Philadelphia closing lands after my lease here ends?

We arrange storage in the middle for exactly this situation. The crew loads you out when your lease says you have to go, everything waits safely in between, and it carries on to Pennsylvania when the keys are finally yours. Put the two dates in front of us at the start and the storage is built into the one price.

How much notice does a Pennsylvania move need?

A few weeks in hand makes it comfortable, mostly so the COI is not being chased through your management office at the last minute. If your date is closer than that, tell us who signs the certificate at your building, because that signature is usually the slowest part.
