Step 1 of 4: Move

Step 1: Move

First, the move itself

Start with the pickup and destination.

Street address is best, but a neighborhood works.

Even just the borough is fine if you're not sure yet.

Planning your move

From the city apartment to the New Jersey address

A move to Jersey City or Hoboken might mean another apartment. A move to a house may mean deciding which furniture belongs in rooms you have never had before. Start with what you are taking and where it needs to go; we can review the contents in a free video or in-person survey.

Include any furniture being collected from a second home or delivered somewhere else. If the move depends on a closing date, tell us what is confirmed and what is still tentative. We will review the destination and available schedule before you book.

Keepsake holds federal interstate moving authority, which you can check on our licenses page. Crossing into New Jersey is an interstate move even when the destination feels close.

Packing and preparation

Packing for the New Jersey home

Label boxes for the new home rather than the room they came from. If the former living room furniture is heading to a den, that is the useful label. Tell us about stairs, entrances and any furniture you would like us to look at during the survey.

We can add packing for selected rooms or the whole apartment. If the house closing and apartment handover do not line up, we can also arrange storage while you wait.
