Lincoln Park sits at the eastern edge of Morris County near where the Pompton and Passaic rivers meet, and it has a broader mix of housing than most of the towns we serve: single-family streets, townhouse developments and a good number of condominium complexes.
That mix matters because condo and townhouse moves have paperwork attached. Many complexes want a certificate of insurance and will restrict moving hours, and those are the things that delay a move at the door.
What Moving In Lincoln Park Usually Involves
Condo and townhouse complexes
Management rules, reserved parking and sometimes a certificate of insurance. Ask early, because approval is rarely instant.
Low-lying streets
Properties near the rivers sometimes have raised entrances or exterior steps that add carry time.
Longer run from Dover
Further east than most of our work, which shows up as travel time. Being packed and ready matters more here.
If you are in a managed complex, request their moving requirements as soon as you have a date. See our certificate of insurance page for exactly what to ask for.
What We Move
Everything we do locally is covered on our local moving page, and if you are leaving New Jersey entirely see long-distance moving. For pianos, safes, pool tables and antiques, see specialty moving.
Why Lincoln Park Families Call Us
We are a sixth-generation family moving company based at 76 N Sussex St in Dover, and we have been doing this since 1888. We are licensed and insured in New Jersey — NJ #39PC00002200, US DOT #43124 and MC #81955 — and when you call, you get Tim, Sheila or Tony rather than a call center.
How much does a move in Lincoln Park cost?
It depends on volume, access and how ready you are when the truck arrives. We will not invent a number before we know what you own. Our guide to what a move costs explains exactly how the figure is built and how to spot a lowball estimate.
Do you serve all of Lincoln Park?
Yes, all of Lincoln Park and the surrounding Morris County area. We are based in Dover, so most of this region is a short run for our trucks.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. NJ #39PC00002200, US DOT #43124 and MC #81955. Ask any mover for these and check them.
Can you move a piano or a safe?
Yes. Both need flagging at estimate time so the right crew and equipment come. See piano moving and gun safe moving.
How far ahead should I book?
As early as you have a date, particularly for month-end or summer. Mid-week and mid-month moves are easier to schedule and easier to price.

The Homes We Move In Lincoln Park
Condominium complexes
Management rules, reserved loading areas, restricted hours and often a certificate of insurance requirement.
Townhouse developments
Stairs on every floor and shared parking. The internal layout usually matters more than the total square footage.
Single-family streets
Generally straightforward, though properties nearer the rivers sometimes have raised entrances or exterior steps.
Moving Day In Lincoln Park
More of our Lincoln Park work involves a management office than in any of the surrounding towns, and that is the thing that decides whether your move happens on schedule. Elevator bookings and certificate approvals are not instant, and at month end they are the bottleneck. Get the building requirements in writing as soon as you have a date.
Being Based In Dover
Lincoln Park sits at the eastern edge of Morris County, which makes it a longer run from Dover than most of our work. That shows up as travel time, so being genuinely packed and ready when the truck arrives is worth more here than it is closer to our shop.
My condo association is asking for insurance paperwork. Can you provide it?
Yes. Send us their exact requirements and we will get a certificate issued. See our certificate of insurance page for what to ask them for.
Are there restrictions on moving hours in these complexes?
Frequently, yes. Many buildings allow moving only on certain days and between set hours. Ask the office when you book the date, not the week of.
