Our Story

Urban Flat Rate was founded by New Yorkers who were tired of seeing friends and family burned by hidden moving fees, vague hourly quotes, and crews that nickel-and-dimed every staircase, hallway, and parking spot.

We built the company around one simple promise: the price we quote is the price you pay. No fuel surcharges. No mystery line items. No "we ran into traffic, that'll be extra." Just a fair, flat rate built around your move.

Today, our crews move studios in Manhattan, brownstones in Brooklyn, offices in Midtown, and everything in between — across all five boroughs and beyond. We're proudly local, family-run at heart, and obsessed with treating every move like it's our own.
