Brandon and David were great help in getting an extremely heavy gym equipment down the stairs in the basement. Thanks a lot. - Mona

Annur and Jaequan were professional and efficient. They were on time and they handled my exercise machine with care. I recommend them! Thank you for the service you provide! - Victoria

I had to move one object that was heavy and awkward. They were professional and efficient. I would hire them again tomorrow. - David

I had an amazing experience with David & Harry during my recent move from one apartment to another. From start to finish, their team was professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful. They went above and beyond to make the process smooth and stress-free. The movers arrived on time, handled all my belongings with great care, and worked efficiently without cutting any corners. They were respectful, upbeat, and made what’s usually a hectic experience feel surprisingly easy. No item was too big or too awkward — they carried everything with ease and treated my things as if they were their own. I couldn’t be happier with their service and would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and hardworking moving crew. Thank you so much for making my move a breeze! - Hussein

Excellent experience. Very friendly and great problem solvers for awkward, heavy piece of furniture. Worked fast and safely. Would highly recommend. - Kerryann

Absolute legends They ensured I got my delivery into where it needed to be and it was quite heavy and difficult Both were super polite, were cautious of not bumping into anything in the awkward hallway to get the over sized bench top into our apartment If they could be the two people that helped us with everything I the future, we should be so lucky - Jai

They were so great! They were professional and friendly and careful. They did a really difficult job of getting heavy awkward packages up stairs and organizing them. Five stars isn't enough. - Anne

very friendly and got the large items up two flights of stairs and around some awkward corners very quickly and efficiently ! - Abigail

Sadiki and Jeremy were amazing! The couch we got was very heavy, but they stayed positive and did the job incredibly well. We’re so grateful!! - Alice

John and Marcelo were super friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. They went above and beyond with an incredibly heavy product and delivered it safely. Great service, would highly recommend! - Klint

Diego and Carlos were extremely efficient and communicative and handled the dresser (an extremely heavy one) they picked up for me with a lot of care. Highly recommend them! Thank you guys again! - James

Five stars isn't enough! Huge shoutout to the two delivery guys who hauled a heavy sofa up to my 5th-floor apartment. They were fast, extremely careful with my walls and furniture, and maintained a great attitude the whole time. Absolute rockstars—thank you! - Niki

Very polite and courteous. Charles and Nery were extremely efficient with a heavy item going up a very narrow staircase. Thanks so much for your help! - Audrey

Raheem & Phillip were friendly and reassuring. They were completely on top of things! I was sure the furniture was too heavy, but they had it upstairs in minutes! - Erika

Amazing team!! They moved a very heavy dresser up stairs and were safe and controlled the entire time. Would recommend them to anyone - Piper

Emmanuel and Noel were incredible - easy to coordinate with, good at problem solving, and upbeat and positive throughout the move. They hauled a heavy sofa bed up 3 flights of stairs with a smile in 90 degree heat. Would hire them again in a heartbeat! - Elizabeth

Dmetry and Maksim were incredibly reliable and helpful! I had been struggling to get a heavy couch out of my home for months, and they got it done safely and efficiently in less than 30 minutes. I’m so grateful for their help and professionalism. I’ll definitely be using Lugg again in the future! - Tori

Jose and Travis were great! They happily moved my very heavy couch and worked very efficiently. My only suggestion would be to wrap any upholstered furniture in moving blankets to protect it in the future. - Deirdre

Both Bruno and Brett did a very nice job. My washing machine is a combo with dryer in one and its very heavy. They did not give up and did their best to get it moved to my new house. Going up and down the stairs was not easy but these two have teamwork. Thank you both for the hardwork! - Herbert

Incredible movers, super helpful with navigating a really heavy piece out of a difficult space!! Teamwork was excellent between them and helping me with moving the piece both out of the old space and into the new. I cannot recommend these guys highly enough. - Julian

10 STARS!!! Cannot say enough about Orandae. He was tasked with loading an impossibly heavy wardrobe (which was described - inaccurately - to me as "very light"). He was so incredibly kind and patient, and somehow never stopped smiling. He helped troubleshoot setting the wardrobe up (it came in multiple pieces) and even spent his time helping us level it to make sure it wouldn't tip over. DEFINITELY went above and beyond, and on his way out the door wished me a happy Mother's Day. I hope Lugg recognizes him - what a great guy. Start to finish the best service I could have hoped for. - Cary

Theodore and Garfield are amazing. They had to deal with a very heavy piece of furniture and an annoying situation with our dresser drawers. They were very helpful with advice and handled the whole move like total pros. They are the best - schuyler

We had a very very heavy item and 5 flights of stairs. Both men were super understanding and dealt with it, no questions asked. It was a huge relief for us to get this item and to have such good support. Thanks! - Francesca

These guys managed to get a HEAVY couch up to the top floor of a 4 story walk up. I’m grateful they used moving blankets and plastic in the rain. Thank you! - Phoebe

Lugg movers handle gym and fitness equipment between homes, apartments, storage units and commercial gyms, and the thing worth checking before you book is what the heaviest single piece weighs, because that decides how many movers you need. Lugg's weight limit is 125 pounds per Lugger, or 250 pounds per item on any vehicle that comes with two Luggers: Pickup, Van, XL, Box or Box+. Lugg is an on-demand moving and delivery platform where you book local movers for gym, fitness and exercise equipment in Manhattan, with a truck and the muscle to load it, for pieces that are too heavy and too awkward to shift alone.
The only number that matters is the heaviest single piece. Under 125 pounds one Lugger can carry it, so any Lugg works, including a Lite. Between 125 and 250 pounds you need a vehicle that comes with two Luggers. Over 250, book a second Lugg for the same day and time with the same two addresses, and both crews arrive together.
| Piece | Typical weight |
|---|---|
| Mats, bands, kettlebells | 5-50 lb each |
| Adjustable bench | 40-70 lb |
| Olympic barbell | 45 lb, about 7 ft long |
| Plates | 2.5-45 lb each |
| Spin or exercise bike | 100-140 lb |
| Elliptical | 150-250 lb |
| Power rack or squat rack | 200-400 lb |
| Cable machine or functional trainer | 400-700 lb with the stacks in |
A rack, a bench and a full set of plates going to the same address is still one job, because the limit is per item and not per load. Three things are worth doing before the crew arrives: box the small plates and leave the 45s stacked to be carried singly, take the bar and any long attachments off the rack, and measure the narrowest turn on the route rather than the doorway.
Cable machines and functional trainers are the ones to plan around. The stacks, pulleys and cables are a torque-specific rebuild, cable tension has to be set correctly for the machine to work safely, and the warranty on most of them is sensitive to who did the work. Book the manufacturer's technician for the teardown and the rebuild, and book Lugg for the transport in between. The same goes for anything still under warranty that you'd rather not open up.
Whatever does come apart, bag the bolts and tape the bag to the frame they came off, so nothing arrives as a pile of parts with the hardware missing.
The truck and crew size you pick sets the base fare and factors in the distance between your addresses, then labor runs by the minute once the crew arrives at each location, with no hourly minimums. Lugg movers carry equipment up stairs, into elevators and down long hallways. Enter both addresses and you'll see the estimate before anything is confirmed. Up to five stops fit on one booking, so clearing a rack out to a storage unit and dropping the plates somewhere else is one job, and moving equipment from one room to another in the same building is a booking like any other. If you're replacing equipment rather than relocating it, the old machine can ride along as an extra stop to a recycling center or donation site you choose.
Lugg movers deliver all types of home gym and fitness equipment in Manhattan, from cardio machines to strength training gear and accessories.
That includes treadmills, ellipticals, exercise bikes (including Peloton and smart bikes), rowing machines, pilates reformers, weight benches, squat racks, compact cable machines, adjustable dumbbells, plates, kettlebells, boxed gym accessories, and more.
Lugg's weight limit is 125 lbs per Lugger, or 250 lbs per item on any vehicle that comes with two Luggers: Pickup, Van, XL, Box or Box+. Anything heavier needs more Luggers on the job, so book a second Lugg for the same time window. There's no limit on how many items you move, and size comes down to which vehicle you choose.
Yes, Lugg can pick up your gym equipment from stores like Dick's Sporting Goods, Best Buy, or local fitness retailers, as well as warehouses and marketplace sellers in Manhattan. Once your crew is en route, you can also call and text directly to relay any additional or last-minute details.
Tip: Upload a photo or receipt during booking so we grab the correct model and accessories. For marketplace pickups, add the seller's number as an "Additional Contact" so the crew can coordinate directly.
Yes, you can load as much as safely fits into your chosen truck, from a pickup to a box truck.
Need multiple stops? Lugg supports up to 5 pickups or drop-offs per Lugg, so you can coordinate multi-location gym setups in one booking.
Yes, Lugg can pick up your new gym equipment and then haul away the old one to a recycling facility or donate it to a local charity, including donation centers like Goodwill or Habitat ReStore near Manhattan. Just add an extra stop when booking your move. If your new gym equipment is coming from a partner store, that extra stop means your Lugg is priced as a standard Lugg, with labor billed by the minute at every stop.
Tip: Donation and disposal centers vary widely in what they accept, so we recommend calling ahead to confirm they can take your gym equipment, along with their hours and any potential fees.
Yes, Lugg serves commercial gyms, fitness studios, and offices with flexible delivery scheduling and larger truck options (Van, XL, or Box). Ideal for fitness studios, apartment gyms, or corporate wellness centers needing professional delivery or relocation in Manhattan.
Yes, with Lugg you can book on-demand, same-day, and next-day gym equipment moves. Movers and a truck can arrive within the hour, or you can schedule up to 60 days in advance for a time that works best for you.
Pick the truck that fits what you're moving. Almost every option is a two-Lugger booking, so crew size isn't usually the decision — the Lugg Lite is the exception.
Tip: Pickup trucks carry a tarp for light rain, but book an enclosed truck — Van, XL, Box or Box+ — if heavier rain is forecast. When in doubt, size up.
Not all box trucks have a lift gate. If your gym equipment move needs one, say so in the 'What are you moving?' field when booking and Lugg will do its best to accommodate.
Yes, Luggers in Manhattan are experienced with walk-ups and tight spaces. Your Lugg crew will carefully bring your furniture to or from your room of choice, exactly where you want it.
Heavy gym equipment notice: Please confirm stairs are wide enough to accommodate safe placement, as Luggers can't hoist appliances or use ladders.
Clear a 3–4 ft path around it, unplug it, and take off anything loose, like weight plates, a screen or tablet, or a water bottle. If it folds, fold it and lock it in place. Measure the doorways and stairwells at both ends so you know it will fit, and reserve an elevator or loading dock if your building requires it.
If your gym equipment has to be taken apart to fit through a doorway or into the truck, book the manufacturer's or a certified technician to do that before the move and to put it back together after. Treadmills, exercise bikes, rowers, ellipticals and cable machines can need specific tools and torque settings, and the wrong teardown can void a warranty. Once it's ready, Lugg movers carry it in one piece or in the pieces it's already in.
Yes, every Lugg move comes with moving equipment: straps, dollies, moving blankets and stretch wrap to protect your gym equipment in transit and while it's placed in your home. Luggers also carry basic hand tools, like a screwdriver with bits or a drill, and an Allen key or hex wrench.
Luggers move heavy exercise equipment through tight spaces, stairs and doorways every day, but they aren't trained exercise-equipment technicians, so assembly and disassembly should be handled by the manufacturer's or a certified technician.
We always recommend inspecting your gym equipment upon arrival. In the rare event that damage occurs to your item(s) or your property in Manhattan, our Support Team will promptly review the issue, coordinate any necessary repairs or replacements, and work with you to make things right.
To file a damage claim, get in touch through our contact page or use live chat. We'll guide you through the next steps and may ask you to hold the item while we review and resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
