A NJ based web search will provide you with dozens of results for various companies and services. The various offers that you will receive can often be confusing. Various terms and conditions and price range fluctuations may leave you at a loss as to how to prepare for your NJ based relocation and what moving company to choose.
Let’s take a look at a few of the preparations you can do in order to clarify the confusion and make the right selections.
Sorting out your Moving Offers
The best way to sort out moving offers is to limit them to about three or four, only from highly reputable service providers.
The criteria for a relocation company to receive an estimate from should include:
- A New Jersey based company with actual headquarters in your area.
- A company with a good reputation and positive BBB rating.
- A company that provides a written estimate in which the charge units, all terms and conditions and all possible extra costs are clearly detailed.
Making Informed Decisions
Once you have finished conducting research, you should combine your own personal decisions in order to provide companies with correct information and make informed decisions.
In order to receive a good estimate, you will need to provide your mover information about the following:
- Tell your mover whether you intend to do the packing yourself, or whether you would like it to do the packing for you.
- Prepare a complete inventory list, go room by room and mark down items that are to be taken, items that will be left behind or sold and items that will require packing. Try to estimate the number of boxes that will require packing for each room.

My husband and I have used Alpha for two moves—once from Manhattan to Jersey City and more recently from Jersey City to the Jersey Shore.
The first move … More was during Covid, but Alpha was super diligent and professional. The second move was on an incredibly hot and humid day, and our movers still worked so hard and fast.
For our second move, we also had to put our items in storage for a few weeks. Alpha made this super easy and had a thorough system for taking inventory of all our furniture and boxes.
I can't say enough about how great Alpha is. We would use them again and recommend them to anyone. Their office employees are very responsive and helpful, and the movers are extremely skilled and professional.
I've also found their prices to be much more reasonable than other companies in the area.
