Trumansburg sits at the north end of Cayuga Lake, close enough to Taughannock Falls that plenty of new residents mention the waterfall before they mention the house. The village’s historic downtown gives way quickly to lakefront-adjacent properties and seasonal roads, so our crews plan Trumansburg jobs around both a compact Main Street and a longer lakeside driveway in the same week, sometimes on the same day.
Hicks Moving and Storage runs this corner of the county alongside our Lansing routes, since both towns sit along the same stretch of Cayuga Lake. A move here might mean a full household relocation into a lake-adjacent home, or it might mean a short-term situation while a closing gets sorted out; either way, our short-term storage option keeps belongings safe without forcing a rushed second move, and our crew is licensed and insured throughout every job we take on, from a village apartment to a full lakeside household.
Every Trumansburg quote is flat-rate with company-owned trucks only, and free furniture wrapping included as standard. No deposit is needed, and text or call updates keep you posted the day of the move. Request a free quote today.

Our Services
The one-bedroom off Collegetown gets the same movers and the same equipment as the farmhouse packing up for Rochester. We don't farm the small jobs out to a lesser crew. Whichever of the nine services you book, it stays ours the whole way, never resold to some truck down the road.
Our Range Of Services IncludesLocal Dryden Moves
Farmhouses off Peruville Road, student rentals near Cornell, ranch homes in Varna. Our crew has hauled through every kind of Tompkins County move, usually wrapped up before dark.
Learn More →Long-Distance Moves from Dryden
When a Cornell postdoc's contract ends and the next one starts in Rochester or Albany, the load doesn't get handed to a subcontractor at the county line, the crew that packs it drives it.
Learn More →Tompkins County Home Moves
Farmhouses outside Dryden and starter homes in Lansing both get worked the same way, one crew, one truck, and a price we settle on before anybody starts carrying boxes out the door.
Learn More →Ithaca-Area Apartment & Rental Moves
Narrow stairwells in the older Collegetown buildings and tight turnaround dates tied to the Ithaca lease cycle both call for a different plan than a house move, so we plan around both.
Learn More →Full-Service Packing for Tompkins County Homes
Give us the day and we'll pack the whole house (kitchen, root cellar, the barn full of boxes nobody's opened in years) with padded wrap and dish-pack cartons built for rural roads, not just a driveway.
Learn More →Short-Term Storage Between Leases
Leases in Ithaca rarely line up perfectly with a closing date, so when there's a gap, we hold your load in a heated space instead of a storage pod freezing shut in a Finger Lakes winter.
Learn More →Piano Moving Across Tompkins County
Uprights and baby grands out of old farmhouses and newer Ithaca builds alike. Our crew straps it, ramps it, and gets it down the stairs without marking the piano or the floor.
Learn More →Loading & Unloading Help in Dryden
Rented your own truck and don't want to blow a disc lifting a dresser alone? Two of our guys show up, load or unload it, and let you handle the driving.

Downsizing out of a longtime Tompkins County farmhouse into somewhere smaller takes patience as much as muscle. We work at your pace and label everything by room.

Every job we run in Dryden moves through the same four stages, and not one of them ends in a moving-day surprise. Here is what each stage looks like up close.
Aisha Sizes Up The Job
She would rather see the place than guess at it, so a walkthrough, in your home or over video, is where the figure starts. A gravel driveway too tight for the big truck, a hayloft still stacked with boxes, an old upright wedged into a back bedroom: all of it lands in the quote before you commit to anything.
Nancy Squares Away The Paperwork
Before the truck ever leaves the yard she has handled the valuation coverage and any certificate of insurance an Ithaca building manager needs, with the flat price down in writing beside it. Nothing about the cost gets renegotiated once the ramp is down.
Todd Or Wyatt Takes The Crew Out
A run around Tompkins County goes out under Todd; anything crossing state lines rides with Wyatt. Whichever it is, every piece is padded before it leaves the room, and the crew reads a steep dirt driveway or a narrow Collegetown stairwell rather than muscling straight through it.
We Leave It Set Up, Not Stacked
You aren't left staring at a wall of boxes when we pull out. The used wrap and broken-down cardboard ride off on the truck, every carton has already been carried to whatever room its label calls for, and the beds are stood back up and ready to make. What's waiting for you is a house you can start living in.
The Reasons People Hire Us Twice
A Crew Chief Who Knows You By Name
There's no rotating cast of foremen here. Todd has the local crew, and after years on these back roads he can usually tell from the driveway alone whether the big truck fits or whether it's going to take a shuttle. Wyatt owns the long-distance runs. He put in seven years behind a CDL freight rig before this, so a day of interstate miles doesn't faze him. Either way, you know exactly who's running your move well before it starts.
A Lake-Effect Squall Won't Bump Your Date
Winter around here isn't something we scramble to react to. The squalls that blow off the Finger Lakes and the mud that swallows a farm lane every spring thaw are both penciled into the calendar long before your date comes up, so a rough forecast never costs you your slot. Salt and traction mats ride in every truck for an iced-over set of farmhouse steps, and when a storm pushes your closing back, we shift with it and keep the booking.
The Same Truck The Whole Way
There is no depot swap on a long-distance job with us, no second driver picking up where the first left off. Wyatt runs the whole lane himself: loading in Dryden, driving the miles, and carrying the last box inside at the destination, be it Syracuse a couple hours off or Albany at the end of a long day. Nobody but the crew that packed you ever lays a hand on your things.

Reviews From Our Customers
“Todd's crew moved us from a Lansing farmhouse to a place two miles up the road in under five hours and didn't scratch a single doorframe on either end.”
“Needed a Rochester move with only two weeks' notice for a new job. Aisha quoted it over the phone in one call, and the same truck that loaded here in Dryden unloaded there two days later, no swap, no surprises.”
“Moved out of a Collegetown walk-up right at the end of the lease cycle, busiest week of the year for them, but the crew still showed up on time and got my couch down the narrow stairs without a scratch.”
