We had such an amazing experience with Roadway! We moved during thanksgiving weekend and we could have not done it without the best crew making everything such a pleasant and smooth experience for us. We traded the high-rise life to a three floor walk up brownstone life and Roadway took such good care of our stuff! Thank you guys for making our move stress-free!

So glad I chose Roadway for my recent move! It was the best moving experience in my 10+ years in NYC. From getting a quote to actual move, everything was so smooth and stress free! They are super responsive and follow up with you multiple times prior to the move to make sure you have everything you need. The movers were on time and seriously super fast in moving things while being very careful with every item. The entire move from my fidi apartment to midtown took half the time compared to my last move..! Seriously, roadway’s the best!

Roadway is the absolute BEST moving company in the NY area. This is my second time using them in 2 years. We have a little one, and were leaving our apartment in the city to move to the burbs. Without any time to pack ourselves, we enlisted the help of our Roadway team. They were on time, professional, and managed to be INCREDIBLY efficient while also taking great care of our belongings. They brought a team of 6 rockstars, and made our move seamless and stress free. We probably wont have to move anytime soon, but if we do, we know who to call!

Roadway Moving made it so easy for me to move all of my furniture from my home in Florida to my new apartment in New York. The movers handled all of my belongings with care and even wrapped and protected my furniture to ensure no damage happened during the moving process. As a first time mover, this was such a breeze and made it so seamless to get my things across the country. I recommend Roadway to anyone who is looking for a kind staff, great price and extremely professional service.

I LOVED my movers. They were the nicest, most helpful, most communicative team I’ve ever worked with and I moved 7 times in 11 years so you could say I’m somewhat of a pro. Roadway keeps you closely posted on the whereabouts of your things and the ETA they will arrive. I used them to move all the way from NYC to MIA and it was easy breezy. I highly recommend them for other people interested in a seamless transition to a new city or just a new apartment. Pedro & Edwin in the pic are the best!!!

We just used Roadway Moving to fully pack our NYC apartment for our move across the country. It was so amazing! A crew of 5 super friendly guys showed up right on time and assessed what we had. Very quickly, they had everything packed securely and well organized. You’ll get a bunch of barcodes on each box that identify that it’s your stuff. Quick and easy! Now we are heading west and will meet them out there! I would highly recommend this service, especially the full pack. It is so worth it!

This was my 3rd NYC move and my 12th overall move and I have never had such an easy experience. I was absolutely blown away by the responsiveness, professionalism, and careful work done by Roadway Moving. They moved my 1BR apartment in NYC with ease. They were early, efficient, and fast/hard workers. The men who completed my move were thoroughly kind, friendly, and respectful! And Roadway even called during my move to check-in and make sure it went smoothly. The whole team was attentive and helpful and I couldn’t have asked for a better moving team.
