It is important to remember
that moving is a seasonal
business with peak months
being May to September. If
you are planning a move
during these months, we
recommend making your
reservation at least 4-6
weeks in advance. Also, the
beginning and ending days of
each month are especially
busy, so please plan
accordingly.
Where are you
located?
We are conveniently located
in Fair Lawn, NJ. Our large
fleet of state of the art
trucks and equipment will
provide exceptional long
distance service to 48 states
and local moves within the
metropolitan areas.
Why do moving
companies put more than one
household shipment on a
trailer in a long distance
move?
We do this for
efficiency and to keep our
customer's cost at a minimum.
We do have direct shipments
available, but most customers
choose to have their items
transported in this manner
because it is more
affordable.
What is
partial packing?
Partial packing is the
packing, wrapping or crating
of glass tops, all sizes of
TV sets, pictures, mirrors,
glass items, lamps, china
cabinets, and all upholstered
furniture. What is full
packing?
Full packing is when our
moving staff arrives at your
residence and packs
everything rather than the
customer.
Do you charge
for packing
materials?
Yes. Only on materials that
are requested or used by your
moving team (boxes, packing
paper, tape, etc) will be
charged additionally.
Will packing
materials be on the truck if
I need them?
Yes, our crews come fully
prepared and have these items
on hand. If you might need
something, it will be
available.
Can we help
the movers?
For insurance reasons,
customers are not allowed on
the truck, so the best way to
help is to be prepared
beforehand. We recommend that
our customers have all their
packing completed, boxes
labeled, and ready for
transportation. This will
allow our moving crew to do
their job efficiently.
What is
valuation
protection?
It is the maximum protection
a moving company will be
liable for if an item is
damaged during transit.
$.60/lb per item for long
distance moves.
What does
$.60/lb per item
mean?
If you have an item damaged
and it has to be replaced, it
will be replaced at a value
determined by taking the
weight of the item and
multiplied by $.60/lb.
Why should I
purchase insurance instead of
valuation?
Valuation is the
predetermined limit of
liability as stated on the
moving contract. Please
contact our office for more
information regarding
insuring your valuable
items.
Does my homeowners policy
cover my items for a
move?
Most
homeowner’s policies do
not provide coverage. Call
your insurance company to see
if they can supply you with
coverage for a special
premium. Make sure the policy
includes coverage while your
goods are in the moving
company’s possession
and not just while the movers
are in your residence.
What if I
need something
hoisted?
Since we do not provide that
service, you will have to
contact a hoisting
specialist. We recommend that
our customers make the
arrangements at a time when
it will not interfere with
our moving service.
Does your
moving company transport
plants?
It is forbidden by law for
moving companies to transport
plants across state lines. On
local moves Federal
Regulations will allow a
mover to transport plants if
the trip is fewer than 15
miles. However, we cannot
guarantee their safety. In
general, we recommend that
you make arrangements to
transport your plants.
What are
additional
services?
ANJ service that is provided,
in addition to the line haul
is typically an additional
service. These can include
crating, packing, unpacking,
appliance services, special
handling, stairs, long
carries or shuttle service if
access to your residence is
limited and a second smaller
truck is necessary. Your
moving consultant can fully
explain the range of services
and charges during your
moving
consultation.
