Fresh Start Movers has been moving central New Jersey families and businesses for 8 years. Local crew. How we estimate. Dedicated trucks on every interstate run. No call center, no upsell pressure, no shared loads.
Built around one rule: see the job before you quote it.
We do moves the way moves are supposed to work: a proper consultation before anyone quotes a number, usually 15 to 20 minutes and longer when the job needs it, a written estimate you can read, a dedicated truck on move day, and a delivery day in writing — not the 1-to-14-day window the rest of the industry hides behind. No shared loads and no terminal transfers. It is an estimate rather than a fixed price. Walking the job first is what makes it realistic, and the final number reflects the work actually done.
NJ Division of Consumer Affairs registered for in-state household-goods moves (NJ Public Movers License #39PM00129400) and fully insured for local and long-distance moves. Long-distance moves out of NJ use a dedicated truck — the same crew loads in NJ, the same crew unloads at the destination, never co-mingled on a shared truck — with full FMCSA-compliant household-goods paperwork, bill of lading, and full-value protection.
Who you are dealing with
A hands-on owner, and a crew that has been here since the beginning.
Nathan Lloyd is the owner and operator, with more than ten years in the relocation business, and he is the person who comes out to quote most moves. He is a lifelong resident of Wall Township, where he lives with his wife and two boys.
Anthony, our foreman and lead on the job, has been with Fresh Start since the beginning and is an Army veteran. The crew behind him is full-time and works together every week, which is why so many of our reviews mention the movers by name.
Fresh Start Movers is a member of the Jersey Shore Chamber of Commerce.
Our promises
Four things on every quote — in writing.
We have been moving central NJ since 2018. These are the four guarantees that go on every quote we send.
A written estimate after a walkthrough
A video tour or an in-person visit, then a written estimate you can read before anything is booked. We would rather find the narrow staircase now than on the day.
No shared trucks
Your shipment is the only shipment on the truck. Same vehicle loads in NJ that unloads at the destination — local or interstate.
1-business-day response
Quote requests get a real human reply inside one business day — usually inside three hours. No call center, no upsell pressure.
By the numbers
Moves done right.
We've built the operation around what the moving industry usually skips: a written estimate, a dedicated truck, and a delivery day in writing.

Had the absolute pleasure of hiring Fresh Start Movers for my move. They couldn’t have been nicer, more efficient and more hardworking. Jack, Mike and Jonny were incredible and worked non stop through various stops to get it done. Highest recommendation. Thanks fellas!

This is the second time that we have used Fresh Start Movers. Christina makes sure that she schedules a date and time for us that conforms with our calendar. Brendan and Curran were wonderful. They made sure that our furniture was secure, completing the job in a more than satisfactory way. I highly recommend Fresh Start Movers to anyone who needs a competent, friendly, and reliable moving company.

I have now used Fresh Start twice and I would never consider using any other moving company. They are terrific. Their service is exceptional, they are a pleasure to deal with, and their pricing is very fair. On this move, the team of Jim, Pablo, Eric and Gilbert was top notch.

Nathan and his team made our move from NJ to FL seamless.
I felt I could trust Nathan after interviewing 3 other movers. He came to the house to see what had to be done and thought it would be OK. Believe me it was OK.. They picked up when promised and delivered when promised.. when we got to our building in FL there was an elevator inspection that was unplanned.. the boys were not rattled...they were more thanTerrific! i had a business trip planned and sent my wife to take care of our move.. needless to say I was concerned there was so much that could go wrong.
Seamless, Ontime, personal, and kind.... nothing was a problem for them.
THANK YOU

**Outstanding Service from Fresh Start Movers!**
I can’t say enough good things about **Fresh Start Movers**. Our move was anything but easy. We had to cancel and reschedule **twice** because of circumstances completely out of the movers’ control, and through all of it, Fresh Start Movers stuck by us.
**Christina in the office was absolutely fantastic.** She showed tremendous patience, understanding, and professionalism throughout the entire process. She never made us feel like we were a burden, even with all the changes and uncertainty we were dealing with. Her communication and willingness to work with us made a very stressful situation a whole lot easier.
When moving day finally arrived, the **four movers were outstanding**. They were extremely accommodating, professional, respectful, and worked their butts off. They handled our furniture carefully, worked efficiently, and never complained despite what had already been a long and complicated process.
After everything we went through trying to get this move completed, having a company that **stood by us from beginning to end** meant a lot.
If you’re looking for a moving company that is professional, patient, accommodating, and actually cares about its customers, I highly recommend **Fresh Start Movers**.
**Thank you to Christina and the entire Fresh Start Movers crew for helping us finally get to our new home. You guys were great!** 👍

Packers were punctual, efficient , friendly, respectful and considerate. Their detailed labeling in the boxes made it so easy to unpack.
The movers arrived on time asked questions when they were unsure of what to take . They arrived in New York and quickly unloaded, asking where i wanted things to go.
Thank you for your wonderful crew and helpful office staff as well.
Will highly recommend to friends and neighbors.

We had an amazing experience with Fresh Start Movers. Christine was amazing and the entire team did a fantastic job!! We made multiple stops from North Jersey to South Jersey dropping off furniture along the way to family and everything was absolutely seamless! We also were in a pinch to move our daughter out of her apartment on short notice and Fresh Start was able to accommodate us. Great experience all around and we would highly recommend Fresh Start to anyone!!

By far the best experience I’ve ever had with a moving company. The team at Fresh Start did an incredible job helping us pack, move and unpack. It couldn’t have gone smoother!
Our own crew. Fresh Start does not use labour pools or day-hire, so the people who load your house have worked together before and the foreman is someone you can reach. The same crew that loads is the crew that unloads, in-state or interstate.
Is Fresh Start licensed and insured?
Yes. NJ Public Movers License #39PM00129400 with the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs for in-state work, USDOT and ICC/MC authority for interstate household goods, $2M general liability and $1M commercial auto, with full-value protection available on any move.
