Netcong is small, densely built and sits where several major roads meet, which makes it easy for us to reach and occasionally awkward to park in. It is a borough of older homes, apartments above storefronts and a lot of shared driveways.
We have been moving people in and out of this stretch of Morris County for well over a century, back when the railroad rather than the interstate was the reason the town was busy.
What Moving In Netcong Usually Involves
Compact borough streets
Short blocks and limited curbside space. Truck placement is worth thinking about the day before rather than the morning of.
Apartments and above-shop units
Stairs, shared entrances and sometimes no interior loading route at all.
Near Lake Musconetcong
Lakeside properties bring their own access quirks: seasonal roads, tighter lanes and slopes down toward the water.
If your unit is above a storefront or shares an entrance, say so. It changes the crew size more than the amount of furniture usually does.
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 Netcong 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 Netcong 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 Netcong?
Yes, all of Netcong 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 Netcong
Older borough homes
Close-set houses on short blocks, many with narrow interior stairs and small landings.
Apartments and above-shop units
Shared entrances, exterior stairs and occasionally no interior loading route at all. These need the crew sized for stairs rather than volume.
Properties toward the water
Lakeside and near-lake lots bring slopes, steps down from the road and less turning space.
Moving Day In Netcong
Netcong is compact, which is mostly good news and occasionally the whole problem. Short blocks mean limited curbside space, so truck placement is worth thinking about the day before. Where several buildings share a driveway or an entrance, let your neighbors know the date so nobody is boxed in when we arrive.
Being Based In Dover
We are a short run from Dover, and this stretch of the county is ground we have covered for well over a century, back when the railroad rather than the interstate was the reason the town was busy. It means we already know which streets take a full-size truck comfortably and which do not.
My apartment is above a shop. Does that change the price?
It changes the crew and the time, which is what drives the price. Stairs and a shared entrance matter more than the number of rooms, so describe them when you call.
Do you serve the lakeside properties too?
Yes. Those tend to involve slopes and steps down from the road, so the more you can tell us about the approach the more accurate the estimate.
