Hudson County fits 724,854 people, by the 2020 Census, into 12 municipalities, so the planning on a move here starts at the curb.
A Hudson apartment move is planned one of two ways, depending on whether the building is a walk-up or has a reserved service elevator. Either way, Century checks legal curb access first, then the stair turns, whether the elevator is available, and the time the building wants the crew finished.
We ask about stairs before we book: how many floors and flights, the turns and landings, and the biggest pieces that have to go through them. On an hourly job, stairs add labor time, and any stair charge follows our rate schedule and shows up in the estimate, not on moving day. Stairs are part of the quote.
We coordinate the parking arrangement and put the applicant's name and responsibilities in writing. If we submit the application, you get the confirmation; if the town needs you to submit it, we check that it is done.
Hoboken's temporary no-parking signs for a move in a permit zone have to be bought at least ten days ahead, so they can be posted seven days before they take effect. We build that lead time into the booking date. Jersey City runs no-parking signs and meter bags through its parking division, and its code says a resident permit does not reserve a space on the street.
Jersey City's code bars trucks and commercial vehicles from parking on city streets between 9 PM and 5 AM. So on a two-day Hudson job, we settle a legal, secure place for the loaded truck before a single box goes aboard. Whether your belongings spend the night on the truck or in storage is settled with you in advance.
A move from Hoboken or Jersey City into Manhattan crosses into New York, which makes it an interstate job, and Century carries FMCSA household goods authority for it. Our guide, Moving day rules in New Jersey, town by town, quotes from sections 332-30 and 332-60 and the city's permit sheet, and links Chapter 332.
