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.

    Alpha was fantastic! Leading up to the move, they communicated well and were very accommodating when we needed to change our move date, add additional items, … More etc. On the day of the move, the 4-man crew was prompt and worked quickly and diligently to disassemble and wrap furniture and load all our possessions onto their large truck with care. We had many heavy boxes and bins, several of which were located in a basement down a narrow staircase. The crew had a great attitude and asked questions when necessary. Compared to other moving companies, Alpha was more reasonably priced and well worth it. I would enthusiastically recommend Alpha for any local moving needs!
