Jersey City is towers and brownstones side by side: the freight-elevator high-rises of Newport, Exchange Place, and Journal Square, and the walk-up brownstones of downtown and the Heights. It’s a PATH ride from Manhattan, and our crews cross constantly, so your Jersey City move runs on time whichever building you’re in.
Jersey City is two kinds of move stacked in one city. The waterfront and Journal Square run new freight-elevator towers where a reserved window and a COI decide the day. Downtown, Van Vorst, and the Heights are brownstones and walk-ups where stoop stairs and one-way parking set the pace. Since 2013 we’ve moved both, and a big share are people moving between Jersey City and the five boroughs. The crews who get it right book the tower freight, count the brownstone flights, and plan the truck spot before they arrive.
A crew sized to the home, blankets in the price, and access handled ahead. Towers get their freight window and COI; brownstones get their stoop and stairs counted; every job gets the truck spot planned on a tight downtown block.
We handle the access first, because a freight window or a tight downtown block is what runs a Jersey City move late. Four steps, no surprises.
Jersey City puts a freight-elevator tower and a brownstone stoop on the same block, and a mover has to switch between them. The waterfront runs tight freight windows; downtown runs tight one-way streets.
Our movers are in-house W-2 staff who work Jersey City and Manhattan both, so a Newport tower, an Exchange Place high-rise, and a downtown brownstone are all everyday jobs. We book the freight and file the COI, count the stoop and parlor stairs, and plan the truck spot on streets where parking a rig is the hard part. Because we’re PATH-close and NYC-based, the crew that loads here is the same crew that unloads across the river. Since 2013 that range keeps our Jersey City moves on schedule.
