Bushwick’s mix of converted warehouse buildings, working artist studios, and older walk-ups means every load is different — a studio full of canvases and shelving units doesn’t move like a standard one-bedroom, and a lot of the loft buildings still load through a service entrance rather than a lobby. We ask what’s actually in the unit before quoting a crew size, not after the truck is already parked outside.
A studio move typically runs $525 to $725 flat, or hourly at $145/hr for two movers if the load is lighter than average. Artist studios with a lot of loose or oversized pieces often do better with a three-mover crew at $190/hr. $175 deposit, credited to the final invoice.
Bushwick Rates, Straight Up
Two movers on the clock is $145/hr, bump to three and it’s $190/hr, four runs $235/hr — skip the guessing and have Anthony or Marcus walk the place, then you get a written figure instead
Third-floor walk-up or a brownstone co-op that won’t let a truck near the block without a COI on file, doesn’t change how Bushwick jobs get handled — paperwork's sorted beforehand, basic coverage rides along free, and a fifth mover onward adds $50/hr.
