A simple online search for finding the perfect movers in NJ will give you dozens of results. But will such a simple search really lead you to finding the perfect movers in NJ? The answer depends on the knowledge you have about the moving industry, the research you do and just how well you compare the moving estimates.

Finding the Perfect Movers in NJ – Selecting Moving and Relocation Companies

It’s important to understand there are several types of service providers that will show up in each internet search. Some of the services will be brokers. Brokers are not movers, they will simply pass on your information to several moving companies. Other moving companies do not have a local branch in your area, but still do pickups when their truck passes through to do long distance deliveries.

The best way to select moving service providers to get estimates from is to check that you are dealing with actual movers with a branch in your immediate area.

Finding the Perfect Movers in NJ – Checking Reputation

Once you have verified the location of the moving service provider, it’s time to check its reputation. Check the Better Business Bureau website to begin with. After checking with the Better Business Bureau, make sure that the company has all the necessary valid moving licenses.

Finding the Perfect Movers in NJ – Comparing your Estimates

Once you’ve received between three to six estimates, compare the basic charge units offered you, as well as all the possible extra charges. Don’t make the mistake of looking only at the bottom line price of the estimate. Comparing prices per hour for local moves and rates per pound or per cubic foot for long distance moves will help you to get a real sense of just how expensive or inexpensive each estimate is.

    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.
