May is National Moving Month, the ideal season for planning your next move. Warmer weather, longer daylight hours and the end of the school year create perfect conditions for families and individuals to start fresh with local moves, long distance moves or international relocations. As one of the top New Jersey moving companies SeaCure Moving encourages everyone to make smart choices during this busy period.

Protect Yourself from Moving Scams

At SeaCure Moving and Storage, your trusted full service New Jersey moving company we have provided reliable professional relocations since 1981. Our family owned business focuses on delivering safe transparent experiences so you avoid common pitfalls that turn moves into nightmares. National Moving Month brings increased activity which unfortunately attracts unscrupulous operators. Knowing the red flags helps you select legitimate NJ movers like SeaCure Moving.

Know the Red Flags Before You Hire Any Mover During National Moving Month

Protect your belongings and peace of mind by watching for these warning signs highlighted by industry experts and consumer protection resources.

No Visual Estimate

Legitimate quotes come from a visual survey either in person or virtual. SeaCure Moving always offers free visual surveys to provide accurate transparent pricing based on your actual needs. Whether moving in NJ or across state lines, a mover is required by law to perform a visual survey unless it is not physically possible for the consumer. If a mover does not offer or tries to book by phone, it is a red flag.

Confusing or Vague Estimates

Walk away from phone quotes, text quotes or unclear quotes full of conditions. A proper written estimate details all costs for services and includes a cube sheet outlining the size and scope of your move including items to be moved room by room, a tally of and detail of boxes to be packed by owner, a tally and detail of cartons to be packed by mover and any additional services such as storage and valuation protection. SeaCure Moving provides clear comprehensive estimates and inventories with no hidden surprises.

No License or Business Address

Choose movers with proper licensing and a real physical address not just a post office box. All movers are required to have their license numbers on their websites, social media pages and distributed advertising. SeaCure Moving proudly displays its credentials as a fully licensed and insured New Jersey mover, and has operated under the interstate authority of Bekins Van Lines as a Bekins agent since 1987.

Large Deposits or Cash Requests

Be very cautious of companies demanding large upfront deposits or insisting on cash wire transfers or payment apps.  Some legitimate companies may ask for a small deposit to book to know the consumer is committed but it is usually non-refundable. SeaCure Moving follows ethical practices with fair transparent payment terms. SeaCure does not require deposits to schedule a date unless there are special circumstances.

Too Many Perfect Reviews

An unrealistic number of identical five star reviews with little detail may indicate fake feedback. SeaCure Moving earns genuine high ratings from real verifiable customers who appreciate our careful professional service.

Check Before You Hire a Mover

Always verify your chosen company. SeaCure Moving maintains an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau as accredited since 2010 and serves on the board of the New Jersey Warehouse and Movers Association.  Our Circle of Excellence status places us in the top 5% of licensed movers and multiple awards including NJWMA Mover of the Year 2024 and Asbury Park People’s Choice 2025 confirm our position among the best moving companies in New Jersey.
