What to Know About Rabbit Moving & Storage
Rabbit Moving & Storage has built a loyal following in Brooklyn and Queens through honest pricing and reliable crew work. They're particularly well-suited for apartment moves in walk-up buildings, where their experienced teams navigate tight staircases efficiently. Pricing is competitive for the outer boroughs, though their hourly model means your final bill depends on how quickly the crew works — a variable that's hard to control. Their storage options exist but aren't their strongest offering. For straightforward local moves, Rabbit is a solid mid-tier choice. However, they lack the infrastructure for complex moves involving specialty items or long-distance logistics. The hourly billing model is their biggest weakness — customers report stress about the clock ticking during moves. Movd's flat-fee approach eliminates this anxiety entirely, giving you a locked-in price before the truck arrives. For Brooklyn and Queens renters who want predictability, Movd's real-time crew matching often surfaces crews just as close and capable as Rabbit's, but with guaranteed pricing. When booking through Movd, you'll see Rabbit Moving & Storage alongside 12 other DOT-licensed movers. Compare prices, availability, and choose the best option for your specific move.

Why NYC Movers Choose Flat-Fee Packages Over Hourly Rates

"Moving a piano in NYC is no joke, but the crew handled it like pros. The flat price was clear before we booked, and there were no add-ons after the fact. Saved about 25% versus other quotes."
Emily L.
Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan • Piano move
"Fourth-floor brownstone walk-up and I was braced for a stair fee. Nope — stairs were already in the flat rate, and there was no overage on move day. Exactly what they quoted."
Marcus B.
Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn • Walk-up move
"Our flat rate was locked in up front and came in about 30% under our DIY estimate. Nothing was damaged, and the digital inventory tool kept us organized the whole way. Zero surprise fees on move day."
