What’s included
Everything a full-service home move needs
These come standard on every Goman’s home move, whether it’s a one-bedroom apartment or a five-bedroom colonial.
Home protection
Floor runners, door-jamb pads and banister covers go down before the first piece of furniture moves.
Blanket-wrapped furniture
Every piece is padded and wrapped in the room it came from, so it arrives the way it left.
Disassembly & reassembly
Bed frames, tables and sectionals are taken apart, labeled and put back together at your new home.
Wardrobe cartons
Hanging clothes go straight from your closet into wardrobe boxes and arrive ready to hang.
Room-by-room placement
Tell us where things go and we’ll put them there, right down to which wall the dresser sits on.
Our own crews
Goman’s movers and Goman’s trucks, never day labor. The people who load your home are the people who unload it.
Houses, apartments & everything between
Stairs, tight turns and walk-ups
North Jersey homes weren’t built with moving day in mind. Narrow staircases, third-floor walk-ups, split-levels with tight landings and condos with elevator rules are part of our week, every week.
When something won’t fit through the door, we figure it out, whether that means removing a door, taking a piece apart or bringing a dresser out through a window. You won’t hear “we can’t” until we’ve tried everything.
Elevator and loading-dock times coordinated with your building
Certificates of insurance sent to your building or HOA
Extra care for armoires, hutches and solid-wood pieces

FAQ
Questions, answered
How much does a local move cost?
It depends on how much you’re moving, the distance, and access at both homes, such as stairs, elevators and long walks to the truck. After a quick walkthrough we give you a written estimate so you know what to expect before you book.
How far ahead should I book?
Two to four weeks is usually enough. Month-end dates and summer weekends book up first, so call early if your date is fixed. In a pinch? Call anyway – we’ve helped plenty of families on short notice.
What should I pack myself?
Keep jewelry, important papers, medications and valuables with you. We can pack everything else, or just the kitchen and the breakables.
Will you take apart and reassemble furniture?
Yes. Beds, tables and most furniture that comes apart are disassembled, labeled and put back together at your new home.
What if my closing date changes?
It happens all the time. We can bring your belongings to our Fairfield warehouse and deliver them as soon as you have the keys.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Goman’s is licensed and insured, and we’ll walk you through your coverage options before moving day.
