About Us - Howards Van Line

How We Got Here

If you’ve ever moved before — and most of us have — you know it’s never just about packing boxes and loading a truck. It’s about starting fresh. It’s about change. And it can be stressful.

That’s why we started Howards Van Line, a full-service moving company based in New Jersey — to make moving feel like a step forward, not a headache.

We’re a team of real people who’ve been in the moving business long enough to know that no two moves are alike. Over the years, we’ve helped countless families and businesses relocate across Clifton, Newark, Jersey City, and throughout the state of New Jersey.

We’re proud to say that 92% of our customers return or refer us to others, and that says a lot more than any billboard ever could.

Founded on the belief that moving should be handled with care, respect, and calm, we’ve built our company around people, not just packages.

Our Mission

We have a straightforward mission:

To make every move feel effortless, personal, and professionally managed, starting from New Jersey.

We’re not here to rush through your moving day or toss your boxes around like a conveyor belt. We’re here to plan, protect, and move with purpose — whether it’s down the block or across the state or country.

At Howards Van Line, we move with intention — making sure every detail is handled, every step feels smooth, and every customer feels like they’re in good hands.

Our Core Values

We don’t just talk about values — we live them on every move across New Jersey and beyond.

  • People First, Always: We treat your belongings — and your time — with the respect they deserve.
  • Transparency Matters: No hidden fees. No games. Just honest pricing from day one.
  • Do It Right, Or Don’t Do It At All: We don’t cut corners. We take pride in the little things, like wrapping furniture properly, labeling boxes, and showing up early.
  • Keep It Human: Moving is personal. We act like it, because it is.

What We Do (And How We Do It Differently)

We’re not just a full-service moving company — we’re the Trusted National Movers people call

Complete Moving Services Nationwide

From local moving in Clifton, NJ, to long-distance relocations across the U.S., we handle it all. Whether it’s a cozy apartment or a full family home, we build a plan that fits your move, not our schedule.

Custom Plans, Not Cookie-Cutter Moves

Every move is different. That’s why we don’t do “one-size-fits-all.” We build your move around your location, timeline, and comfort level.

Professional Movers With a Personal Touch

Our uniformed, trained team brings the right tools and a great attitude because nobody wants to be moved by grumpy strangers.

Transparent Pricing

What we quote is what you pay. We believe in fair, upfront pricing for all our NJ customers — no surprise charges.

We Leave It Better Than We Found It

From careful wrapping and loading to a clean finish, we treat your home and your items like they’re our own.

Our Promise to You

We know you have options when it comes to movers. You’ve probably seen a dozen companies claiming to be “the best.” It’s easy to make promises, but not everyone follows through.

At Howards Van Line, we don’t believe in flashy gimmicks or over-the-top guarantees. What we do believe in is doing what we say — every single time.

Here’s our promise:

  • We’ll show up on time. No ghosting. No delays. We respect your time, especially on moving day.
  • We’ll handle your items with care, like they’re our own, because your move isn’t just about stuff; it’s about memories and milestones.
  • We’ll be upfront and honest from the start. No shady pricing. No surprise charges.
  • We’ll treat your move like it matters. Whether you’re moving across the street in NJ or across the state, you’ll get our full commitment.
