Alex Chaffolrd and his crew were on time and communicative, due to alleyway approach they were not able to park next to the loading dock but they were flexible and quick to come up with a solution. The crew was friendly and hard working. They put my furniture together carefully too. Overall great experience.

American Van Lines was by far the best moving company I’ve used. Upon contacting them, I was greeted an agent that was very helpful during the initial quoting process, and also not pushy to use them as a mover. Ivana kept me informed and updated as dates/times moved which was greatly appreciated. Jairo Caro was the driver who was very respectful, kind, and easy to communicate with. Jairo went above and beyond making sure my needs were taken care of. He used quality helpers both loading and unloading. I hope he can come back to Utah to pick up the rest of my furniture once my wife can get out of Utah permanently. I was also impressed with the car shipper (Montway Auto Transport) they used as well. They made my move much easier for sure!

## Average Cost To Move From North Dakota to New York

There's no one-size-fits-all price for a move. Your total will depend on your home size, where you're starting and
ending within North Dakota and New York, and add-ons like packing help or storage. On average, a
move on this route can cost anywhere from $3,488–$11,767,
and can take 4 - 15 days from pickup to delivery.

Here's a quick look at estimated costs based on home size:

| --------- | -------------- |

### Factors that Affect the Cost of Moving from North Dakota to New York

Moving costs aren't one-size-fits-all, and a few key details can make your total price go up or down. Here are the most common factors that affect how much your move will cost.

- **Timing of your move:** Prices tend to spike during peak moving season (especially summer), and moves booked on weekends or at the beginning or end of the month often cost more.
- **Professional vs. DIY:** Choosing between a DIY move and hiring a full-service mover such as American Van Lines can make a big difference in your overall cost and experience. DIY can cost less upfront, but you'll be on the hook for the packing, heavy lifting, and logistics, while AVL takes care of the hard work for you, making the move smoother, safer, and far less stressful.
- **Exact distance:** Longer moves generally come with higher quotes, and even small changes in mileage between your current home and your new one can affect the total cost.
- **Size of move:** The more rooms (and stuff) you're moving, the more labor, time, and truck space you'll need, which usually means a higher overall price.
