A lot has been said and written about the importance of securing a reputable and trustworthy moving company for both local and long distance moves. Most of the information you will find online and offline refers to the reputation and the practices of movers. While it is of the utmost importance to check the reputation, licensing information and history of the movers you are considering, it is no less important to check if they are local to your area.

Locating Local Movers in NJ

If you are looking to secure movers in NJ, it is important for you to be able to tell the difference between actual local companies and companies in remote locations that will not be appropriate for your relocation needs.

Some companies that advertise themselves as local movers in NJ actually come from out of state; some even pass through the area, to make deliveries, and will be undermanned and unable to provide you with quality service.

This is why it is important to request the physical address of the mover you are considering. If you are told that the main address is in another state and that the company has ‘branches’ in NJ, it is best that you request to pay a visit to the local headquarters in order to make sure that the company has actual trucks, manpower and facilities in your area.

The Importance of Securing a Local Mover

A local mover will be able to provide you with a precise schedule, be there on time to perform the pick up, be able to bring a fresh supply of packing materials, if necessary and provide you with more manpower if and when the need arises.

Additionally, local movers in NJ will be familiar with your neighborhood, with the parking arrangements and the local rules and regulations.

If you want to learn more about the local services that Alpha Moving and Storage provides in NJ, be sure to give us a call. A customer service representative will be delighted to provide you with all the information you need about our facilities in New Jersey and the local services we provide.

    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.
