If you about to embark on a long distance move, then you have come to the right place. This new Alpha Moving and Storage blog article provides some of the most vital information you will require to make a careful and educated choice and find the perfect Jersey City mover for your long distance move.

Searching the Internet for a Local and Reliable Jersey City Mover

The first thing to consider is reputation. Only a reputable company will provide you with an estimate that will remain the same on the day of the move. There are plenty of shady companies that deliberately make their offers seem attractive, then increase the moving price under various pretexts. So be sure to contact the Better Business Bureau, ask for references and double check the licensing information.

Making Reputation and Price Comparisons

You should be aware of the face that comparing prices does not necessarily involve looking at the bottom line total on your estimate. What you should be comparing instead is the basic charge unit, the price per pound or cubic foot for long distance moves, and the price per hour for local move. Also, you should compare added services fees, such as prices for packing and packing supplies.

Receiving your Estimate and Communicating with your Estimator

Try to receive your estimate at least four weeks prior to your actual moving date. We recommend that you do not settle for a phone estimate, but ask the moving company to send a representative to your house and provide you with an on-location written quote. Regular communication with your estimator and mover is highly important. Be sure to update your estimator of any change and fluctuations, even ones that seem trivial. You never know what might make a difference and it is better to be safe than sorry.

    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.
