Moving in Arden Heights
What a Drennan move looks like in Arden Heights.
Arden Heights, Woodrow and Greenridge are the deep-south-shore developments where Staten Island families do most of their growing up. Split-levels, hi-ranches and townhouse rows, almost all of them with a finished basement that nobody has fully emptied since the day they moved in.
Hi-ranches are their own sport: a half-flight up, a half-flight down, and a front landing too small to turn a queen box spring. We bring a door-removal kit and a split box spring plan before you have to ask. Arden Avenue and the Woodrow loops are wide enough for our trailer, so most long-distance loads here go direct with no shuttle charge. And because the Greenridge blocks flood their curbs after heavy rain, we bring plywood and floor runners rather than track your driveway across a new carpet.
Neighborhoods we work in regularly around Arden Heights: Woodrow, Rossville, Greenridge, Arden Avenue. If your street is not on that list, it is still ours — call Bill at (718) 317-5100 and he will tell you exactly how we would run it.

Arden Heights moving questions
Costs, timing and storage in Arden Heights.
How much does a mover cost in Arden Heights?
+
Most local Arden Heights moves are flat-rate. A one-bedroom apartment typically starts around $600, a two-bedroom home runs roughly $900–$1,400, and a three- to four-bedroom house is usually $1,600–$2,800 depending on stairs, packing and how much is in the basement or garage. You get the exact number in writing before moving day — no hourly meter, no surprise fuel or stair charges.
How far in advance should I book a move in Arden Heights?
+
Two to three weeks is comfortable, and end-of-month and Saturday dates in Arden Heights go first. That said, we are 10 minutes up Arthur Kill Road, so short-notice and same-week jobs are often possible — call Bill at (718) 317-5100 and he will tell you straight whether a crew is free.
Do you move out of Arden Heights long distance?
+
Yes. We are a Wheaton World Wide Moving agent (USDOT 070719), so we move Arden Heights families anywhere in the lower 48 — the Carolinas, Florida, Texas and the Southwest are our most common runs. The same crew that loads your house is the crew that unloads it. No broker hand-off.
Can you store my belongings between closings?
+
We have climate-controlled, alarmed and inventoried storage at our own warehouse at 16 Brienna Court, Staten Island — about 10 minutes from Arden Heights. Short-term holds between closings are routine, and redelivery is on your timeline.
Do you offer same-day or short-notice moving in Arden Heights?
+
Often, yes. Because our trucks and crews are based 10 minutes up Arthur Kill Road, we can sometimes cover a same-week or next-day Arden Heights job when a closing moves or a landlord changes the date. Midweek is easiest; end-of-month Fridays and Saturdays are the hardest. One phone call to (718) 317-5100 gets you a straight yes or no, not a callback.
Are you licensed and insured for moves in Arden Heights, NY?
+
Yes — Joseph F. Drennan & Sons Inc. has operated under USDOT 070719 since 1952 and is an agent for Wheaton World Wide Moving. We carry cargo, liability and workers' compensation coverage, we file certificates of insurance directly with Arden Heights buildings and condo associations that require them, and full-value protection is available on any move instead of the bare-minimum per-pound coverage.
