What drives the price of a move to The Bronx:
How many rooms / cubic feet — the single biggest driver of your price.
Local moves are priced per volume; long-distance adds mileage and freight.
Full packing, bulky items and storage add to the base transport cost.
Across the Bronx, a 2-bedroom move usually lands between $2,225 and $2,675 locally, or $4,550 to $5,450 heading long-distance. A 1-bedroom in a walk-up tends to run $1,675 to $2,000 nearby. The borough's pre-war apartments, dense blocks, and stretches of public housing shape most of the cost here, and crews price local jobs by the hours they spend on your building, not by the miles.
Local Bronx moves ride on crew hours, so stairs, long hallway carries, and elevator wait times drive the meter more than distance does. Long-distance road moves switch to weight plus mileage instead. Tight parking, building COI paperwork, and reserved-elevator windows all add labor time. Summers here are hot and humid and winters bring snow and nor'easters, so the calendar you choose swings the final number as much as your apartment size.
