I have a high roof Sprinter van. I charge a two hour minimum. I have 11 years of experience moving in NYC. Dollies, blankets and all other necessary equipment provided. This listing is for one mover. The van typically fits a larger studio apartment or a medium one bedroom. Additional Taskers available for $50-60/hr each. For medium to large residential moves, I require another Tasker to assist to ensure the move is completed safely. The box truck is only available during the summer.
