Do I need to tip movers?

While tipping isn’t required, it’s still a nice gesture especially if the crew did a good job. Generally, you want to tip $10 per person, per hour, but you can always provide more especially if they needed to move a lot of heavy items, walk up flights of steps, and so on.

Should I keep some water on hand for the movers?

While it’s not a requirement, it’s always a nice gesture especially since the movers will be doing the heavy lifting. Cold bottles of water are always appreciated during the summer months.

Should I book further in advance during a summer move?

It’s not a bad idea! While you should still be able to book movers a month in advance, the earlier the better.

Does a summer move cost more than a regular move?

While some NJ movers might charge more for moving during peak season, you get the same prices regardless of when you move.
