Moving long distance from New Jersey is one of Alpha Moving and Storage’s specialties. Alpha has been moving customers from everywhere in New Jersey to anywhere in the continental US for years. In this series of blog posts, we will take a look at how long distance moving from New Jersey is done and why it is important to select a local company, such as Alpha Moving and Storage as your mover.
The Basics of Moving Long distance from New Jersey
Moving long distance from New Jersey is charged according to the volume of your shipment. Once you finish compiling an inventory list and decide what you would like to move, the Alpha Moving and Storage estimator will be able to determine the estimated amount of weight or volume of your move.
On the day of your move, the truck will be weighed before and after it is loaded in order to determine the actual weight of the shipment. Alternatively, moving companies will measure the amount of actual cubic feet you have on the truck.
An Alpha Moving and Storage relocation consultant will provide you with a set rate per pound or a set rate per cubic foot before your move.
Long Distance Deliveries from New Jersey to other States
Deliveries of long distance shipments are done with 50’ tractor trailers. This is why several shipments are combined to fill a single trailer. This is also why is it so important to deduce the volume of each individual shipment. In order for your estimate to be accurate, try to determine your exact inventory list a few weeks before your actual moving date and report any changes and additions to your long distance relocation consultant.
Combining several shipments in a single trailer allows moving companies to lower the costs for performing long distance moves.
