New Jersey has its fair share of moving and relocation companies. A simple online search will provide you with dozens, if not hundreds of results. But how many of the companies you chance to come across online are actually New Jersey movers you can rely on? This new Alpha Moving and Storage article will provide you with some answers.
Making Sure you are Dealing with a Reputable Company
“Of course we’re reputable!” That is the answer you can expect to get from just about any mover. But don’t expect the companies with a terrible Better Business Bureau record to come forward and share that information with you. As the consumer, you need to conduct careful research for yourself. Start by carefully checking the address and licensing information the moving company provides you. Make sure there are no outstanding violations of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration website.
Making Sure you Understand the Terms of your Estimate
Don’t just look at the bottom line price. You need to carefully look into the basic charge unit and the terms and conditions comprising the price. Unless you understand the terms and basic charge units of your estimate, the price of your move might increase on the day of the move. Ask your relocation consultant to go over the terms of the estimate with you and meticulously explain the price.
Making Sure you are Dealing with a Genuinely Local New Jersey Company
Last, but not least, be sure to choose only a local New Jersey company. Check the actual physical location of the relocation service provider. We even recommend that you pay its local offices a personal visit and check their storage facilities and equipment.
