Essex County – Populated, Affluent, and Beautiful

Formed in 1675, Essex County was named after the same county of Essex in England.  It is home to Newark, the largest city in New Jersey.  Essex County is also home to many affluent municipalities such as Millburn, Montclair, North Caldwell, and Livingston.  It also contains many colleges and universities such as Seton Hall University, Montclair State University, and New Jersey Institute of Technology.  Newark International Airport is located in Essex County and is a very large transportation hub for United Continental Airlines, offering a more convenient alternative to New York City’s Kennedy Airport and a jumping-off point for hundreds of destinations world-wide.

Moving to Essex County, NJ

As New Jersey’s third-most populous county, Essex County is a fast-growing industrial area that is perfect for growing families and growing businesses. Essex County is also part of the New York metropolitan area, making it an ideal location for those who commute into the city.

This area has a rich history, and is the first county in the United States to have a countywide park system. The area experienced unprecedented growth after the Revolutionary War, and today nearly 800,000 residents call Essex County home. Newark, the county seat, is the most populous in New Jersey. Other populated cities include East Orange, Irvington, Bloomfield, West Orange, and Montclair.

Moving can be stressful, not only because of packing and finding a new place to live, but also getting settled into your new city or town. At White Glove Moving & Storage, we make moving easier throughout New Jersey. We’ve compiled this helpful guide to help you feel more at home in Essex County.

Update Your Address

As soon as you have moved to your new home, you should update your address. Take some time before or after your move to change or update your address for bills, utilities, phone plans, and more. The process varies from business to business, so ensure that you give yourself ample time to complete every step. While many places will let you change your address online, others will require you to come to their place of business to make the necessary changes, so plan accordingly.

Here are some places you should visit to update your address.

Additional Locations

Here are a few other places that you should contact to ensure they have your updated address:

  • Banks
  • Loan Providers
  • Subscription Services
  • Insurance
  • Your Office’s Payroll Department
  • Social Security Administration
  • IRS
  • Pharmacy Prescriptions

Find New Utility Services

About a week or so before you arrive at your new Essex County home, you should contact utility services to ensure that water, electricity, and other basic utilities are set up. You could also get in touch with cable and internet providers so that everything will be ready for you.

Many utility services, like water and sewer, are provided by one local agency. However, elective services such as cable and internet can be provided by different companies, so do your research beforehand to find which company or package will be best for your needs.

Some services will require a technician to visit your home. Try setting these appointments up for the day you move in or the day after to get everything set up quickly and ready for you to use.

If you are moving within the same general area, you may be able to transfer your current accounts to your new address, so it’s always a good idea to contact your cable and internet providers to find out your options before canceling service.

Prepare Your Pets

Your furry friends need care, too, so don’t forget to find a new vet for them once you move to Essex County. You should also update I.D. tags and address information on a microchip, if you have one, to help get your pets back home if they get lost in an unfamiliar area. Moves can also be really stressful on animals, so you may want to consider boarding your pets during the move.

Know Your Neighborhood Rules

If you are moving into a home in Essex County that is part of a Homeowner’s Association (HOA), there might be rules about moving in, like where moving trucks can park or what hours they can be there. Contact a representative from your HOA to see if there are any restrictions or guidelines before you move in.

Consider Storage Units

Sometimes you move into a new place and realize that all of your belongings don’t quite fit like they did in your last home. When that happens, consider finding a reputable and secure storage unit in Essex County to keep your items safe until you need them again.

First leg of the move was amazing! Ralph who visited the house to give the estimate, Mike and Darwin in sales and Stone and team who moved my belongings to storage were amazing. I was practically on the phone with Mike or Darwin everyday. They were very patient with my questions, changes, arrangements for my paintings. I will post another review once I get my belongings out of storage and move them to LA.

If you need to move? This company should be your 1st & only call! From the initial consultation with Frank in the office to the actual move day with Julio & his team was extremely seamless, stress free and the most professional & efficient display of team work I have witnessed utilizing a moving service! White Glove knows what they are doing, no complaints about the pricing whatsoever! They did not scratch, dent or damage any of our possessions & helped us pack! I could go on & on about them and what they did right! Stay away from uninsured amateurs and get the right people for the job! “You get what you pay for..” rings completely true here! Thank you again Frank & Julio! We are forever grateful!

We had a FANTASTIC moving experience. Everyone I talk to has said they have never heard of a move so well done. We had a fantastic team of movers and they were so helpful the entire day. They worked quickly and took great care of all our items. They even made sure we had a chance to look at all furniture to advise on placement and were happy to adjust as needed. Overall, we had a great experience working with White Glove. Even the lead up was very easy - the representative we received the quote through was always available to answer questions and help us modify the quote. Thanks to the whole team!

We chose White Glove Moving and Storage as a recommendation from a friend. My first experience was with Chris and he was very pleasant and informative. He made it easy to arrange my move and followed up promptly to every additional question... They allowed my to move my date and were pleasant when I did so. They showed up on time and were efficient and professional. They took everything apart and wrapped everything perfectly so there was no damage.. They were patient with me when I wanted to hold them up to put felt on the furniture as it arrived. They worked hard and did not waste any time. There were no surprises at the end when it was time to pay my bill. Everything was as they said it would be. Overall I am very happy with White Glove Moving and Storage and would use them again!!

I highly recommend White Glove! This is our second time using them and the service is exceptional. Everything is wrapped and well cared for. They are reliable. Oscar and his crew were very patient. We had too move some furniture around from the original place and they did it with no problems. Moving is stressful enough, higher a great company.
They provided excellent service, arrived in the time they said they would and handled everything with care. Will gladly use again.

White Glove made my move extremely easy and convenient. They're leading the way in moving in NJ and it's very clear from the initial phone call coordinating an estimate that they know exactly how to move any item from your house or apartment. Easy, efficient, and careful with all items and aspects of the move. Would absolutely recommend using this company if you have an upcoming move around the area.

I rarely post a review but I want others to know of the amazing experience I had with White Glove Movers. They were professional, quick and most of all thorough. We did a detailed walk through before and after and the team didn’t miss a thing. I also appreciated the follow-up call to check on my experience. If you need a moving company I highly recommend White Glove Movers.

I used White Glove for multiple moves and storage. Whether it was moving from my house to my apartment, moving items to storage, or a long distance move from NJ to SC, they were professional, courteous, and highly supportive. I highly recommend their services whether small or large.
I was very satisfied with White Glove from start to finish- from dropping off boxes in advance of my move, to the day of the move, to help make what is typically a stressful process, as seamless as possible. I highly recommend.

White Glove provides flawless service from start to finish. White Glove even made the packing process easier by dropping off boxes and tape after I reserved my date. Marton and his moving team were beyond fantastic. They treated all my belongings with such care, wrapping all my furniture precisely, and communicating consistently with my partner and I so everything ended up in the correct rooms. I truly could not recommend White Glove highly enough. Their service is absolutely worth the money.

The entire experience was a pleasure from start to finish, with the project manager taking his time to understand the needs of the move. He didn't try to rush me, and at times Frank even pointed out certain things I could have been missing.The crew itself was extremely professional and efficient. They took their time walking through the apartment both, before packing and before unpacking.At the back-end, they did not leave till I was satisfied with everything.I'd definitely recommend them to anyone else who is looking to move.

White Glove did a fantastic job moving us back from our rental to our newly renovated home. We used a different company to move out & I was so worried to move again after that experience BUT White Glove and our crew eased my mind. The crew was professional, quick, organized & respectful. They did a great job and I am so happy that I decided to give White Glove a chance.
The team that did our move was fantastic ! They made everything feel easy on that stressful day for us. Emad and Ezazat were super helpful and very efficient. Definitely recommend to use White Glove for any move !!! FIVE STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

From the first call I was impressed with the attention I got from Mike my salesman. This was followed by Lukas working with me on estimate to make sure I had all the information tto make an informed decision about needing 1 or 2 trucks since I was moving staff from 2 locations. Then the moving day came. The movers came on time, they introduced themself and Marton ( the leader of the crew)walked with me around to make sure they know what exacly to pack, explained to me the wrapping process and taking some of my furniture apart. I was very happy with White Glove services and would recommend them to anyone.

Everything about our experience with White Glove moving was exceptional. From the initial estimate to the final move day. They were extremely communicative throughout the process and our moving crew on the big day were kind, careful, and efficient. 10/10!
This was the first time my husband and I ever used a moving company and we were so happy that we chose White Glove. Every step of the way was nothing but professional. We were able to set up an appointment for someone to come to our home (we were local) and give us an estimate. Many places we called did not offer this as an option. Rick was on time, upfront about prices and had a quote for us the next day. Moving day was phenomenal. Jonathan and his crew were amazing. They were professional, efficient, and friendly. Moving is always a difficult process but these guys made it so much easier. Worth every penny! Highly recommend.
