The Complete Guide for Moving Long Distance from New Jersey – Part 2

Self-packing should begin as early as possible, preferably at least two weeks before the actual moving date.

Try to notify Alpha Moving and Storage about any restrictions, elevator hours, access difficulties etc. The more precise you are with the information you provide your mover, the better.

Reducing Costs for your Long Distance Move from New Jersey

Because fees for moving long distance are all about volume, reducing costs has to do first and foremost with reducing the inventory. This is why it is so important to create an inventory list as soon as at least six weeks prior to your long distance move from New Jersey. This list should include all the items in your house. You need to go room by room and write everything down, even items you are still not sure whether you will be moving or not. It’s always better to sort out and take off items from your list than discover that you’d forgotten a few pieces. Go over the list and try to get rid of all the items that you don’t really need.

    My experience using Alpha Moving and Storage was excellent. The crew was courteous and professional. They took their time to ensure that everything was … More covered and packaged before the move so there was no damage. They made sure everything was positioned correctly in our house, and even helped to move a few pieces of furniture that were not part of the original move. I would highly recommend

    I recently hired Alpha Moving to help a family member move from a 3rd-floor walk-up in Brooklyn to New Jersey, and I couldn't be more impressed with … More their service. The team was punctual, professional, and showed exceptional care for both the Brooklyn apartment and the New Jersey home. They took extra precautions to protect the walls and floors, which we really appreciated. Communication was excellent before, during, and after the move, making the entire process much less stressful. I highly recommend Alpha Moving to both family and clients—they’re reliable, professional, and offer very reasonable pricing..
