Dylan was so friendly and thoughtful! Thanks to him and his team, our move went seamlessly without any hassle. Wishing you all good health and continued success!
Moses and his crew were wonderful. I was amazed at the way they packed and quickly moved items out. When they got to the new apartment, boxes and packages were organized neatly and items reassembled. I would highly recommend them. Thanks again guys.
Josh and Crew did my move. I have never used a moving company in the past, it was so quick and painless. They took care to wrap and pack items, were respectful and so quick!
I had a fantastic experience with Optimum Moving from start to finish! The planning process was easy, straightforward, and tailored to exactly what I needed. On moving day, Hugo, Chris, and Gio were wonderful. They were efficient, careful, and made sure everything was secure and well taken care of throughout the…
This is the second time I’ve used Optimum Moving LLC, and once again they were great! The team was professional, friendly, efficient, and took great care of everything. Moving can be stressful, but they made the entire process easy from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. Highly recommend!
Josh and his crew were great! This was our second time using Optimum and they were just as good this time. Josh’s crew was extremely fast, very detail oriented, and communicated clearly. No hidden fees day of, and they accommodated all of our requests. Highly recommend!
Exceptional Speed, Unmatched Quality — My Go-To Movers! As a Realtor, my reputation depends heavily on the service providers I recommend to my clients, and Optimum Moving delivers 100% every single time. I don't just refer them to home buyers and sellers—I trust them completely with my own personal moves, too.…
I have had a crazy 2 yrs. with moving between Bergen and Ocean Counties. Optimum moved me 4 times within that time frame!!! Plus, I stored most of my belongings with them while I tried starting a new life in the Toms River area, which unfortunately did not work out. So back I came to Bergen County and am rebuilding…
This is a 5-star company. Worth every penny! They had an entire 4-bedroom house packed up and on the truck in under 3 and a half hours. They are incredibly efficient, courteous and fast! Part 2 of moving our house from storage to our new house was a great success! Josh and his crew are incredibly fast and…
The experience was great from beginning to end, from Carlos to Nate and his team of 2! They were professional they knew what they were doing, and they moved us along smoothly with no issues! I would recommend them! The price was reasonable and fair!
Needed to change my move because the closing changed. Justin helped facilitate that. Movers were the best, very quick & very easy to work with . Quick but not rushing. Driver Ed very helpful as well. Moving is awful but the communication & on time driver & movers made it less stressful.
Couldn’t recommend them enough. Great communication, friendly service, professional, and quick. Worth every penny.
Efficient, thoughtful with our stuff, and sooo kind and helpful. Thank you!
Optimum Moving did a great job with my local move. Having someone came out to my apartment to assess and give me a quote beforehand was great so there were no surprise extra charges. They also did a great job disassembling and packing some of my larger furniture. They were very professional all around. I'd use…
They were early, moved quickly & carefully, and helped us organize any miscellaneous items that weren’t packed efficiently. I highly recommend this moving company to anyone moving in the area. They took all the stress away from moving.
We had an excellent experience with Optimum Moving from start to finish. Bert was fantastic to work with from the very beginning—he provided our quote, answered all of our questions, and made the entire booking process easy and stress-free. On moving day, Carlos and his team were absolutely outstanding. They…
Josh and crew are fantastic. This is the second time I’ve used them and will recommend them to anyone I know who needs movers. Couldn’t be happier with the service and professional manner that they work.
We were moving from a two bed two bath apartment into our forever home. Optimum moving used a crew of 4 to ensure our large pieces of furniture and boxes were protected, loaded everything into the truck, and then drove it over to our new home. They worked very efficiently and were very mindful while placing our…
Moving with Optimum will definitely gave you the best peace of mind… priceless for me!!! They have an amazing service and very good prices! I’ll definitely do it again 🙌🙌🙌
We moved with these guys three times: once unpacking a pod and two local jersey moves. They're fast, they're careful, and they're nice folks. Strongly recommended!
Reasonable flat-rate pricing, no surprises, efficient and competent. I was prepared for a very stressful day two days (1 day to pack and 1 day to load and unload) but everything was super smooth and expertly handled. I would absolutely recommend them; it was as close to easy as you can get when moving your entire life from point A to point B.
Josh and crew were the best! They were so careful with all our stuff and our house. Josh and crew went well above and beyond what I would expect. Can not recommend more highly
Hired Josh and the crew for a move. They were punctual, courteous, and very thorough. No hidden costs, no bs, always 100% professional. Thank you Gents for all your help!
We love Optimum Moving. This is the 3rd time we've used these movers and will be the only company we use going forward. Quick, efficient, great price, and overall so easy to work with. Not much more you can ask for!
I am not one that usually writes reviews but after my excellent experience with Optimum Moving l felt the need to write one. They made our moving experience easy and stress free. They came out to the house to give a accurate quote which was very reasonable. The quote they gave is what they charged after the move…
We had a fantastic experience with Optimum! They arrived early, packed up the apartment completely and quickly, and upon arrival they unpacked, everything in the right room and took everything away cleanly. Never had a better experience than with them and I would recommend them highly without reservation. The best…
Optimum is absolutely amazing. In what I thought would be a difficult move, the team came in and exceeded my expectations. The crew was friendly, fast & very efficient. If you’re planning a move, definitely use Optimum Moving!!!
Optimum moving did an absolutely excellent job doing my move into a unit, and I know with the utmost of certainty & confidence that they’ll do an amazing job when they move my stuff into my new apartment in August. The team was incredible, professional, and were very quick. I would highly recommend them to anybody who is in need of a move.
This was our second time using Optimum, and they've done it again!! Exceeded every expectation. The crew arrived right on time, and I'll be honest: we weren't totally ready for them. Rather than making us feel bad about it, they immediately jumped in, offered to help us finish packing, and even gave us some great…
I would give 10 stars if i could! This company made moving so simple and stress free! The guys that came to move me out of my place were quick and efficient and took great care of all of the stuff in my place. Jesus, Rofino and Wilmur were great guys and really cared about the work they did!
Carlos and crew did a fantastic job moving us in and out. The move was quick, careful, and efficient. The team is very nice and hardworking.
Highly recommend Optimum moving. Accurate upfront estimates and great service on the day of the move. Josh and crew were great to work with. They took good care of all the furniture and items. Everything was packed well and organized. The team was efficient and handled the move just the way we would’ve wanted.
Josh and Crew were amazing ! Highly recommend them for moving services !
Optimum moving is greater than top notch. Their teams both with Edgar and Moses on two separate moves were prompt, communicative and supportive in my directions throughout the move. The teams were quick and made fast work of packing up our entire house and moving it again QUICKLY into our storage unit. They went…
Excellent experience with Optimum Moving today! Team leader Jesus and his two team members, Trufino and Eduardo, were outstanding from start to finish. They were professional, hardworking, careful with all of our belongings, and worked very efficiently the whole time. Jesus did a great job leading the team and…
I recently moved my entire 3 bedroom home into storage in preparation for an addition and Optimum was fantastic. I would highly recommend them as it was a no BS experience, the best price, and excellent communication from start to finish. I spoke with Bert several times before my move and he was super flexible and…
Carlos and crew did a wonderful job! I knew where certain big furniture would go, but the crew was very patient with me as I decided where other small items would be placed. They were very calm and funny, and made the day run smoothly. Thank you to everyone for making this day not a stressful one, but an enjoyable one.
Josh and crew did an amazing job. They had a plan right from the start and explained all aspects of the move and what to expect. All were pleasant, efficient and extremely hard workers. What is usually a very stressful situation was pleasant and cheerful! Five stars all the way for these awesome gentlemen!!!
I work in Property Management and have experienced and watched over a 1,000 moves and nothing compared to the amazing experience I had with my own move with Optimum! The movers were professional and kind and took exceptional care of my items. I could not recommend them enough!
Very professional, quick, and took care
Great experience from the quote until the end. The team was amazing; attention to detail, cared for our things and they worked very quickly. I would recommend this team to anyone in need of a reliable moving crew.
Josh and crew were a pleasure to work with. They were extremely reliable and handled our things with care. They made the entire process seamless and efficient.
Optimum moving provided an incredible all around moving experience! From meeting with Dylan at my condo to assess my furniture/belongings to get a quote to moving day with Edgar and his team. They arrived 30 minutes early on moving day and after a quick walk through, they got started right away. Moving quickly but…
Optimum was incredible. Helped make the move as easy as possible. Josh and crew worked tirelessly to move our entire apartment and storage unit in 1 day! Highly recommend!
Optimum moving was incredible! They worked with us to make the process as easy and smooth as possible. Their speed, capability, and efficiency is unmatched! Josh and the rest of the crew are the absolute best movers!!
This was my second time using Optimum Moving- once for my home and this time for my office- and each time they have exceeded expectations! From booking with Dylan to moving day with Jesus and his incredible crew- it could not have gone any smoother. Great communication and service! I will highly recommend them to all of my family, friends and patients!
efficient-on time-professional-took very good care of my furniture-friendly-easy to work with-very reasonable priced-why go anywhere else!!
Great experience! The crew handled my furniture with care, and my sales contact ensured COI requirements were met with the HOA. Highly recommend.
Josh and crew did an excellent job moving us to our new home in NJ. They were incredibly fast and efficient and I could hardly keep up with their pace. The guys were kind, helpful, and went above the responsibilities in our contract to deliver a great experience for our family. I’ll be sure to recommend them in the future.
Josh and crew were absolutely AMAZING! They were polite, professional and super hardworking! They did full packing, junk removal and the entire move! They made the process seamless and stress free! If you are looking to move or need junk removal, these are your guys!! Five Stars all the way!!
From the moment that I called optimum moving , I was contacted by Carlos who set up an appointment to come to my home and look at everything to be moved. Later by email, He gave me an estimate, a fixed price and kept in touch to answer all of my questions. The day of the move , I was notified by text as to where the…
Awesome job Josh and his crew moved everything quickly and efficiently
Josh and crew were AMAZING!!! Will definitely recommend. Easy & Quick . Guys were friendly and efficient. Handle with care.
They moved me during the biggest blizzard in 10 years, and I still can’t say enough about these guys! Every single piece of furniture was carefully wrapped and handled with so much care. I had a lot to move, tons of stairs, and a long distance between homes and they never once complained. They spent hours making…
Wonderful crew. Moved from one location to the next in less time than quoted. All items arrived in very good condition.
One of the best decisions I made in a long time was hiring Optimum for our move to Warren NJ (from JC). With snow everywhere and a tight timeline they made the process extremely smooth and we didn’t have to lift a finger. Highly recommend Justin and Optimum Moving!
I’ve used Optimum Moving twice this year, once for my apartment move and again for my office relocation. Both times, they delivered exactly what they promised. The process started with Bert, who personally came out to survey both my home and office and set clear expectations. Their team stayed responsive and…
Could not recommend more. Fast, honest, and handled our things with care
Moved to near by town. Very happy with service. They arrived on time and finished the job on time. Zero damage.
OMG! We made the right choice here. Josh and an entire team arrive and powered through my house like a well oiled machine. They first went through with the iPad check list from our quiet, then sticky notes on everything to double check then packed, labeled and moved it all to its correct room. They were so quick, I…
Josh and crew did an amazing job moving our furniture on 11/6. They arrived on time, did everything in a very fast time and made sure nothing got damaged. I would highly recommend them for anyone evaluating moving companies.
Josh and his crew were amazing! They were prompt, professional, super easy to work with, and kind. I highly recommend using them for any move - near or far!
Josh and his crew did our move today. They were very professional and took great care with our furniture.
This was our first time using Optum moving, and we were very satisfied. Arrived on time worked efficiently and very friendly and respectful of our property. Our move went smooth and we were very, very happy with the service.
Josh and his crew did a better job than I could imagine. They were on time, moved extremely fast, were extremely delicate, and very professional. They took more care with my items than I probably would have myself!

Josh and crew loaded and unloaded very fast and efficiently. Everything was undamaged and neatly packed upon arrival. Would definitely recommend.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 12/10 Experience! This was my second time using Optimum Moving, and they’ve absolutely earned my loyalty. I won’t go anywhere else and continue to recommend them to all my friends and family. Foreman Juan Velez and his crew went above and beyond, caring for every single piece of furniture as if it were…
Josh and crew were fantastic to work with. Friendly, polite and their experience shined.
I've used them twice before and they were fine. This was the third time and it was horrid. They were on time, but the foreman was new and had no idea where to park or how to get into the building, so that put us behind about 40 minutes. As I found out unpacking, things were damaged and thrown into boxes with NO…
Josh and crew moved us today. We had three trucks and a crew of 10. They did a great job moving all of our things to our new home. They moved our entire 4 bedroom house in one day and were very professional, courteous and hard working. Would highly recommend them.
Josh and crew went so far above and beyond our expectations it’s going to be hard to get it all noted here but I’ll try. First - the crew arrived 30 minutes early, ready to go!! This allowed them to beat some of the rainy weather that was forecast. Edgar and the guys did a full detailed walk through with us prior…
Carlos and team were professional and efficient. It was a big job and they had it finished ahead of time without incident. Highly recommend.
Johan, Carlos, and Edward just finished moving me from one apartment to the next. They were professional, on time, diligent, and did an amazing job. They wrapped all furniture and items even though the move itself was a short distance. They also made sure to take extra care and caution while packing and unpacking…
We had a great experience. Everyone was very professional and organized from the initial quote to the actual move. Nick and his team made the day of moving as stress free as possible as they went through both the loading and unloading details without missing a detail. Excellent, friendly service, I would definitely recommend!
Nick, Josh and their crew are finishing up (Finishing!) my move now. It’s barely past noon! They were incredible, careful, considerate, accommodating. Such a pleasure to work with and so great helping us finish and redo our terrible packing job. And now I can relax on my unpacked couch and write a review while they…
I worked with Dylan to contract the move and he was always responsive and most helpful. We did a move out, had our floors redone, and then a move in. Nick and his team moved us back in and he was prompt, courteous, organized the move in an orderly manner, and saw that all my requests were met. All the workers did…
Justin, Alex and team made my moving experience painless and worry free. Justin was able to accommodate several date changes after my move-in building forced my hand and made me change dates twice. On moving day the team was able to quickly dismantle and pack up my furniture while also taking extreme care to make…
Nick and his crew did a fabulous good. They were on time, courteous and professional. They went out of their way. They took the time to ensure the move was done as close to perfection as possible. I highly recommend them.

We were extremely impressed and satisfied with optimum moving company. Josh and his crew of workers did an outstanding job and remained calm, cool and collected the entire time! They made sure everything went smooth and it was very clear they went above and beyond. Each worker is so pleasant and accommodating and…
Jordan and his crew were beyond professional today. They blew me away with how fast and efficient they were. They took care of all of my furniture by wrapping all delicate pieces and moved me in record time. I could not have been any more content with there service. They all worked hard and fast but with extreme…
This Company is By Far the BEST moving company around in my opinion! They are so professional and get your job done quickly and efficiently! They are so kind and extremely helpful on the day of the move when a person is really out of sorts, my project manager Del Von was So amazing, Kind and Caring about the…
We used Optimum for a recent local move and the entire process incredibly easy from getting a quote and booking the move to moving day. Dylan handled our booking process and Nick and crew did a fantastic job with our move — they were on time, very efficient, and made sure our furniture was placed how we wanted it in our new home. Definitely recommend!
Elvis was great, on time (early actually) meeting for the estimate walkthrough. He was very thorough, quick and straightforward. The actual move team, Nick and his crew were fantastic! I was amazed how quick yet very careful and through they were unpacking/unwrapping and then repacking and rewrapping a good amount…
Nick and his crew, Mario and Juan, from Optimum Moving showed up promptly, were friendly, professional, an unbelievably efficient. They made my move so painless! I highly recommend using Optimum if you are doing any type of move. 👍🏼👍🏼

Jose and his crew were punctual fast and professional would recommend to Friend or family.
Jose and his team were great!!!! They were on time, professional and patient!
Checked around at a few different places and Elvis from Optimum gave me my quote. They were not the lowest quote (but were close) but were by far the most up-front and detailed of all the quotes I received. This gave me the confidence to schedule my move with them. On moving day they called early to let me know…
These guys were amazing! They did more than they promised and they were cheerful, polite and extremely professional. I couldn’t have been happier with this move!
Absolutely ecstatic about the service we received from this company from start to finish. They came same-day to give us a quote, were responsive with the phone calls and emails, and showed up ON TIME on a day that there was VERY heavy snow. They moved everything efficiently and with care. Highly recommend! Absolutely will work with these guys again!
Chez and crew did a great job taking care of a local move for my family. The team was very careful with our furniture and they were all friendly to work with! Fairly priced too. I would definitely reccomend using them.
Edgar and Jack's team where great guys. On time and very profession. They moved our very heavy and delicate furniture with out damage not one item. They moved and set up our furniture with out any problems. They worked from 8 am until 9 pm getting the job done. This is the second time using them and would definitely…
Flat rate was worth the cost as they took their time and wrapped furniture well. They worked hard to get a piece of furniture in tight area and set up everything where I wanted and asked if I was satisfied or wanted to them to move anything. I would recommend
I cannot possibly say enough about how great these guys were! I got a quote from Larry that was a set price, not an estimate that would just end up getting jacked up later with a ton of added fees. He was easy to reach and super friendly every time I had a question or needed to make a change and he was very…
Wonderful crew. Quick, efficient and clean
Jose and the crew were absolutely amazing! They got everything done extremely fast and thorough. I will use them for all future moves.
