The Challenges of Moving to Washington Heights:

One real challenge of moving to Washington Heights is coordinating truck access and parking in a hilly high density neighborhood with strict doorman building rules limited curb space on narrow streets and heavy weekday traffic along Broadway and St Nicholas Avenue especially near the A train at 181st Street 175th Street 168th Street and 145th Street where loading docks often require fifteen to thirty minute windows and many buildings mandate Certificates of Insurance. The combination of commercial loading restrictions, alternate side parking rules and constant pedestrian commuter flow from the 1 train at 181st Street 168th Street and 157th Street and the M2 M3 M4 M5 M100 and Bx7 buses can make large truck maneuvering tricky and time consuming. We help solve that by planning the truck position building approvals and route ahead of time, prioritizing freight elevators and loading docks whenever possible, scheduling moves during off peak hours to avoid Upper Manhattan congestion and keeping the entire process efficient so you never block traffic or violate building policies in this vibrant Manhattan neighborhood.
