Trusted Movers in Hoboken, NJ
Moving From Hoboken to the Pennsylvania or Delaware Suburbs
Hoboken packs a lot of people into a square mile. Most live in brownstone walk-ups with four or five flights and no elevator, or in waterfront high-rises with freight elevators, loading docks, and certificates of insurance, and almost nobody has a driveway. A lot of the Hoboken moves we plan are the next step: a couple or a young family leaving a one- or two-bedroom apartment for a house in the Pennsylvania or Delaware suburbs, with three times the space to fill.
Simple Moving Solutions focuses on Hoboken moves that cross state lines, to the Main Line, King of Prussia, Chester County, and Delaware. Our Wilmington headquarters is about two hours away, so we plan Hoboken moves as full-day jobs. We hold USDOT 4531853 and MC 1797073 for interstate moves. Every move comes with an itemized quote and trained, insured crews.

Why Hoboken Chooses Simple Moving
Walk-ups, high-rises, scarce parking, and moves to the suburbs shape most of our Hoboken jobs. Here is what you get with our crews.
Walk-Ups and High-Rises
Four flights with no elevator, or a freight elevator and loading dock: we plan the crew and time for both.
Parking Planned Ahead
Hoboken curb space is scarce. We plan where the truck will stand and help you arrange it with the city and your building.

Learn moreFrom a Hoboken Apartment to a House
Moving from a one- or two-bedroom apartment to a suburban house means more rooms than furniture. See what your current things will cover and what can wait.
A one-bedroom apartment usually furnishes a bedroom, a living room, and part of a kitchen. In a three- or four-bedroom house, expect the dining room, guest rooms, basement, and patio to be empty at first. Most people move what they have, then furnish the rest over time.
Moving Out of Hoboken
Walk-ups, high-rises, and Washington Street each move differently. Pick yours.
Brownstone walk-ups
Four- and five-story brownstones and row buildings on the numbered streets and Bloomfield, Garden, and Park.
Several flights with no elevator, narrow stairwells, and no driveway; plan for more crew and time.
Waterfront high-rises
Newer high-rise and mid-rise buildings along the Hudson and Sinatra Drive.
Freight elevator reservations, loading docks, certificates of insurance, and set move hours.
Washington Street
Apartments above shops on the main street.
Heavy foot and car traffic and very limited loading space; early starts help.
Northwest Hoboken
Newer condo buildings and converted lofts in the northwest part of the city.
Building rules and garage clearances; easier truck access than downtown.
Jersey City edge
Neighborhoods near the Jersey City line and the PATH stations.
Tight streets and busy commuter traffic near the stations.
When to Move From Hoboken
Parking, building windows, and lease turnover all shape a Hoboken moving day. Here is what we plan around.
Parking and permits
Curb space is scarce. Check with the city's parking office and your building about reserving space for the truck, and book early.
Building move windows
High-rises set move days, hours, and elevator times; month-end slots fill first.
Holiday weekends
Thanksgiving and summer holiday weekends are the heaviest on the Turnpike south. We avoid them.
Lease turnover
Many Hoboken leases end at month-end and in late summer. Book early for those dates.
Summer peak
June through August is peak moving season. Book four to six weeks ahead.
Winter moves
Winter dates are easier to book, and we bring floor protection for snow and slush.
