Peers Moving Co has served Mountain Lakes since 1888 — the borough famous for its historic “Hapgood” homes and its namesake lakes. These are not ordinary houses or ordinary moves, and they call for a crew that understands both.
Moving In and Around Mountain Lakes
- Historic Hapgood homes — the borough’s large, distinctive stucco-and-timber houses have unique layouts, grand staircases and original details worth protecting.
- Lakeside properties — homes along the lakes sometimes sit on narrow roads with limited access; we come prepared with the right trucks and equipment.
- Larger, established homes — more square footage means more to pack and move, which our full-service crews handle with care.
- Tight-knit community — reputation matters here, and ours has been earned over generations.
Care for Mountain Lakes’ Signature Homes
Moving a large historic home is a world away from a standard move. Original woodwork, wide staircases, antiques and generations of belongings all need experience and patience. After 137 years in Morris County, our crews bring exactly that — and we treat these one-of-a-kind homes accordingly.
In Mountain Lakes, the home itself is often part of the story. Preserving the character of a Hapgood house while getting your belongings safely from one place to the next is a balance we’ve spent generations perfecting.
Mountain Lakes Areas We Serve

Mountain Lakes Moving FAQs
Can you move a large historic home?
Yes — larger and older homes are a specialty. We bring extra crew, padding and the right equipment.
Can you reach homes on narrow lake roads?
We assess access ahead of time and position for the safest, most efficient load.
How much does a move in Mountain Lakes cost?
Local moves in Mountain Lakes 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 Mountain Lakes 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.
