Yes, most moving companies charge an extra fee if your movers have to carry your furniture up and down several flights of stairs. Stair fees depend on a lot of factors like how much stuff you have and how many flights of stairs are in your building, and every company handles these fees differently. Many moving customers don’t expect these fees to show up on their final bill, either, which can lead to some nasty surprises if you live in one of Brooklyn’s high-rise apartments. Before hiring your movers, ask them about their stair fees and be upfront with them about how many stairs are in the building you’re moving into and the building you’re moving out of. That way, both you and your movers know exactly what to expect.
