Across the Hudson is our core route
Moves from New York City to the New Jersey side of the Hudson are the center of our work. Our trucks start in Brooklyn. We hold federal authority for interstate moves, U.S. DOT No. 967970 and MC-432549, plus a New Jersey public mover license (NJPM 000930) and a New York license (NYSDOT 34875). Our federal record shows active authority, a Satisfactory safety rating and registration since 2001.
Which crossing, from which borough
The usual crossings, by borough. Traffic can change them, so we pick the route for your date and hour.
| Starting from | Usual crossing | Handy for |
|---|---|---|
| Lower Manhattan | Holland Tunnel | Jersey City, Hoboken, Kearny, Harrison, Newark |
| Midtown | Lincoln Tunnel | Weehawken, Union City, West New York, North Bergen, Edgewater |
| Upper Manhattan and the Bronx | George Washington Bridge | Fort Lee, Englewood Cliffs, Palisades Park, Englewood |
| Brooklyn | Through lower Manhattan to the Holland Tunnel, or over the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge and Staten Island | Depends on the destination; the Staten Island route suits Newark and points south |
| Queens | Across Manhattan to a tunnel, or through the Bronx to the George Washington Bridge | Bergen County towns usually go by the bridge |
| Staten Island | Goethals Bridge, Bayonne Bridge or Outerbridge Crossing | Depends on the destination |
The New York end: building rules
Many city buildings want a COI, a booked elevator and set hours. We issue the COI and send it with your contract. See our high-rise moving page for what to ask.
The New Jersey end: towers or houses
Waterfront buildings have rules like Manhattan’s; inland homes have more stairs. Start with Jersey City or Fort Lee, or pick your town.
How your move runs
- Free estimate, seven days a week.
- A written estimate for the whole job, packing and crating on request.
- We send the COI with the contract. You book elevators at both ends.
- Moving day: load in the city, cross on the planned route, unload in New Jersey.
- Furniture goes back together, boxes to the rooms you name.
How pricing works: your rate and terms are in writing before moving day, and your final cost depends on how much you move. If you add items or services, we confirm the change in writing first.
NYC to New Jersey questions
Is a move from New York to New Jersey an interstate move?
It crosses a state line, but federal rules treat NYC and nearby New Jersey towns as one commercial zone.
Can you move me on a weekend?
Yes, if both buildings allow it.
My new place is not ready. Can you store my things?
Yes. We offer short- and long-term storage in affiliated self-storage facilities and deliver on a scheduled date.
