Small moves in Brooklyn by electric cargo bike

What people move with us

Our small moves are the jobs that are too big for a rideshare and too small for a moving truck. Typical jobs include:

• A couch, desk, bookshelf or chair you just bought or sold.
• Ten or so moving boxes between apartments.
• A studio or dorm move.
• Storage-unit runs.
• Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist pickups.
• Artwork and gallery pieces.

We have a 100% electric pedal-assist fleet with two bikes. The enclosed Venture suits boxes and bags. The Flatbed suits furniture and awkward items. See the fleet page for exact sizes.

What fits

The Venture has a 13 ft³ enclosed box (34 × 21 × 34 in) and carries standard packages up to 400 lb per trip. A top box adds about 2 ft³. The Flatbed is a custom-built open trike with a 16 ft² load area, a 5 ft × 38 in bed, 50 in of usable deck and side rails. It is built for pallets, kegs, lumber, flower crates and furniture.

If you are not sure, send us the dimensions and a photo. We will tell you which bike takes it before you book.

How it works

1. Book online. Enter the pickup address, drop-off address and the time you want.
2. We pick the bike. We match your load to the Venture or the Flatbed.
3. We pick up and deliver. A rider collects the items and rides them to the new address.
4. You track it. You get a live tracking link and proof of delivery.

Book in the morning and your move can happen the same day. For a larger job, such as a full studio, call us on +1 (917) 409-6033 and we will work out a plan with you.

Loading help and stairs

Tell us about stairs, elevators and anything heavy when you book. We will confirm how the load gets from the door to the bike and back before the day of the move.

Why a cargo bike beats a van in Brooklyn

• No parking. A bike stops at the door. You do not wait for a double-parked van or circle the block.
• No tolls or gas. There is no fuel to buy and no bridge or tunnel to pay for.
• No license needed. You do not need to rent a van or drive one. We ride it.
• Zero emissions. The fleet is electric pedal-assist.

For a long list of furniture and a full apartment, a moving truck is still the right tool. For everything smaller, a bike is usually quicker and simpler. Our guide to cargo bike versus van in NYC goes into the factors.
