Cost Analysis

Moving from Washington, D.C. to New York is a relatively simple and affordable move with American National Movers. This is because the mileage is low (roughly 225 miles) and the haul can generally be packed, shipped, and delivered in one day with our same day moving team. However, cost factors such as dedicated shipping, large homes, and specialized packing may drive up your out of state moving costs. You can calculate an accurate estimate using our moving cost calculator.

Choosing The Right Shipping Option

We offer two long distance moving options for the D.C. to New York route. These options were designed to attract both budget-conscious and high-end buyers:

Shared Load & Piggy Back Moving

With shared load moving, you share a truck with other customers along the I-95 corridor. This results in an economical price in exchange for your flexibility with delivery. In most cases, that means a 2-3 day delivery window instead of same-day delivery. Read our complete shared load moving guide for details.

Dedicated Truck Service

With a dedicated truck service, your household goods are the only items being shipped in the vehicle. This option is ideal for fragile, high-value, and time-sensitive shipments. Being that your items are exclusive to the vehicle, this will result in a guaranteed delivery date and direct shipping in exchange for a higher rate. See our comparison on dedicated truck vs shared load moving.
