Finding a New Jersey Moving Company

Selecting your New Jersey movers may be a difficult task. A simple online search will yield dozens of moving company results, most of them involving unfamiliar names.

You go over the website offers and discover that all of them promise amazing prices, fantastic service, and a personal treatment. So how can you tell the difference between the good ones and the bad ones?

The simple answer has to do with objective research. It is your responsibility, as a customer, to check licenses, actual location and reputation.

Checking Your New Jersey Movers

The first thing you want to do is differentiate between actual movers with a local headquarters in your area and brokers and index websites.

Brokers will provide you with an estimate over the phone. Once they schedule your move, they will transfer it to a moving company of which, most of the time, you know nothing about. This is definitely something that you should try to avoid.

  • Ask the movers to provide you with their license numbers and physical location. This is something that will allow you to make sure that you are dealing with an actual mover.
  • Ask for references. Good companies will always be able to provide you with some solid references.
  • references.
    Make sure that the mover is located in your immediate area and not on the other end of the country. Local movers will have much more control over the relocation process and will be able to provide you with a much better service.
  • Check and double check the estimate that the moving company is providing you. Make sure you understand all the terms and conditions and read all the ‘fine print’ before signing. The estimate terms should be clearly defined and understandable. If something is unclear, be sure to get back to your sales representative for clarifications.

    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!
