Company History

MoveEast.com operates as California New York Express Movers, commonly abbreviated to “CA-NY Express.” According to the company, it was founded in 1995 as a Los Angeles-based moving company. In 1997, it states that it merged with San Francisco long-distance movers and New York long-distance movers to form a single operation spanning both coasts.

The company describes itself today as a mid-sized, privately owned moving company. Its defining characteristic is a deliberate specialization: rather than serving all routes nationwide, it focuses solely on the corridor between California and the New York tri-state area.

Company Structure

MoveEast states that it operates as “one company from start to finish, no subcontractors.” In the moving industry, this is a meaningful distinction — many long-distance “movers” are actually brokers who sell jobs to third-party carriers. A company that handles a move end-to-end with its own crews and equipment retains more control over service quality and accountability.

Why this matters: Our editorial guide on choosing a long-distance mover explains the difference between carriers and brokers, and why it affects your move.
