New York’s first and only cooperatively owned and operated moving company
We are Red Hook Transfer Co. – a new breed of moving company that combines progressive and socially responsible business practices with a deep appreciation of workmanship, craft, and tradition.
We specialize in the packing, safe handling and transportation of everything from regular household goods and furniture to high-end design pieces and priceless works of art.
We're also experts in all types of installation work – from assembling furniture and shelving to disconnecting and reconnecting any home or office technology; from hanging paintings in homes and offices, to setting up entire gallery exhibitions; from installing chandeliers and other specialty lighting, to mounting that big flat screen in your new apartment.
Collectively, our founding partners - aka our "worker-owners" - have decades of experience in every facet of the moving business - having specialized in art handling and high-end residential moving at New York’s storied auction houses and having overseen the most complex corporate relocations and furniture installations at the city’s oldest and most trusted commercial moving firms.
Moving with a mission.
In what has traditionally been a highly exploitative and unsustainable line of work, we are committed to setting a new standard for how workers are treated and compensated, while providing our clients with an unparalleled level of service.
Our worker co-operative model doesn't just mean that you're making the most socially responsible choice possible when it comes to hiring a mover or installer, but it also means you're getting the highest level of expertise and service at the most competitive prices in the industry.
It’s a win-win-win: Red Hook Transfer Co. is better for our customers, better for our workers and better for our community.
