Peers Moving Co has been moving Morris Township households since 1888 — the older homes off Washington Valley Road, the properties around Convent Station, and everything in the ring of neighbourhoods that wraps around Morristown without being in it.
Moving In and Around Morris Township
Morris Township confuses almost everyone, including some movers. The mailing address usually says Morristown, but the township is its own municipality wrapped around the town, and the housing stock is noticeably different: bigger lots, longer driveways, older homes, and a lot of properties that have been added to over the decades.
- Larger older homes. Narrow back staircases, third-floor rooms, and attics that were never meant to have furniture carried out of them.
- Long driveways and tree cover. Some properties cannot take a full-size truck to the door, which changes the carry distance and therefore the time.
- Convent Station and the commuter belt. Households moving for a job change, often on a tight closing timeline.
- Estate and downsizing moves. Multi-generation homes where a good deal of the work is deciding what goes, what stores, and what stays behind.

Why a Local Morris Township Crew Matters
Older houses reward crews who have been in them before. Knowing to check whether a bannister comes off, whether a piece will make the turn at a half-landing, or whether the truck needs to stay at the end of the drive and everything gets carried — those calls get made in the first ten minutes by someone who has done it, and they set the tone for the whole day.
We have been working these streets since 1888, from our shop in Dover about twenty minutes west.
Morris Township Moving FAQs
Is Morris Township the same as Morristown?
No. They are separate municipalities, though township addresses usually read as Morristown. We serve both — see our Morristown movers page if you are in the town itself.
Can you move large or antique furniture from an older home?
Yes. Older homes and heavy pieces are routine work for us. Mention anything oversized, antique, or awkward when you call so we bring the right crew and equipment.
My driveway is long and narrow — is that a problem?
Not a problem, but tell us in advance. It affects how close the truck can get and therefore the carry, which affects the estimate. We would rather plan for it than find out on the day.
Do you help with estate or downsizing moves?
Yes, and we try to do it at the pace the family needs. Our downsizing services page explains how those moves usually go.
How much does a move in Morris Township cost?
Local moves in Morris Township are usually hourly with a two-hour minimum. The total depends on how much you are moving, access at both homes and how much is packed when we arrive. You get a written estimate that states the basis before you agree, with no deposit to hold your date. Our guide to what a move costs explains how the number is built.
How far ahead should I book a Morris Township move?
Two to four weeks ahead is usually enough for a weekday move. Summer, month-end and closing-day dates fill faster, so book earlier for those. Call (973) 366-2898 and we will tell you what is open.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Peers Moving Co Inc is licensed in New Jersey (NJ #39PC00002200), with US DOT #43124 and MC #81955, and fully insured. We have been moving Morris County families since 1888.
