White Glove Movers - High-End Services | FlatRate Moving

YOUR MOVE. OUR RESPONSIBILITY.

Not the packing. Not the building logistics. Not the timing, the elevator reservation, the Certificate of Insurance, the truck, the crew, or what happens to your Basquiat while it is in transit.

FlatRate ELITE exists for one reason: to remove your move entirely from your life. You tell us where you are going. We handle everything else.

ELITE is not a premium version of standard moving. It is a completely different category of service built around one principle: the client does nothing.

From the moment you book, a dedicated personal move concierge takes ownership of every detail. They coordinate with your building, your architect, your designer, your security team if needed. They build the plan. They manage the crew. They document everything. They replicate your rooms exactly at the destination. And they do all of it quietly, discreetly, and on your schedule. Gratuity is included in your ELITE rate, so there are no additional decisions on move day. You are not a customer managing a vendor. You are a principal with a team.

FlatRate ELITE has moved heads of state, diplomats, corporate executives, celebrities, and government officials. Discretion is not a feature. It is the foundation.

A DEDICATED PERSONAL CONCIERGE

One person owns your move from booking to final placement. They are your single point of contact. You do not chase updates, coordinate logistics, or make decisions on move day. They do.

I loved your elite team.

I loved your elite team. They were extremely professional and did a great job putting my mind at ease. I have a lot of extremely expensive pieces that had to be moved and nothing was broken or damaged. I would definitely recommend the Elite crew to all of my friends. They are well worth the extra money.
