Just north of the city, Westchester County offers leafy suburbs, great schools, and a short Metro-North commute — making it one of the most popular landing spots for families leaving NYC. If you’re moving to Westchester, here’s what to expect on costs, timing, and logistics, from Two Guys And a Truck NYC.
Popular Westchester Towns
- Yonkers & New Rochelle — closest to the city, with easy access
- White Plains — a busy hub with shopping and transit
- Scarsdale, Rye & Bronxville — sought-after school districts and quiet streets
What Affects Your Moving Cost
- How much you’re moving — suburban homes usually mean more than a city apartment
- Access at both ends — walk-ups in the city vs. a longer carry into a house
- Drive time from your NYC neighborhood to your Westchester town
- Packing help if you want the crew to handle it
Tips for a Smooth Westchester Move
- Start early to avoid parkway congestion.
- Declutter before you pack — don’t pay to move what you won’t use.
- Measure the new home’s entryways for big furniture.
- Set up utilities and confirm your move-in date ahead of time.
