Moves between San Antonio & the Hill Country and New Jersey
A move from San Antonio to New Jersey is a long eastbound haul that RiverHills runs end to end on its own trucks — roughly 1,780 to 1,790 miles that start on I-10 East out of the Alamo City, cross the Gulf Coast through Houston and the Deep South, then climb north up I-81 through Virginia's Shenandoah Valley before cutting east on I-78 into the New Jersey Turnpike belt. Newark sits right off I-78, and Jersey City is a few exits farther where the corridor meets the Hudson across from Manhattan — the two cities we run dedicated crews to. Boerne and Kerrville households feed onto the very same I-10 corridor when they leave the Hill Country, so their moves ride the identical lane. Families make this move for pharmaceutical and life-sciences careers, for financial back-office roles in Jersey City's "Wall Street West," and for PATH-train access to New York at more livable rents. Because we hold our own operating authority, the crew that loads your home in San Antonio is the crew that unloads it in New Jersey — no load-board auction, no broker handoff mid-route.

Moving to New Jersey: FAQs
Common questions about moves between San Antonio & the Hill Country and New Jersey. Need more info? Call us at 830-329-7272.
How long does a move from San Antonio to New Jersey take? expand_more
It's roughly 1,780 to 1,790 miles — I-10 East across the Gulf Coast, north up I-81 through Virginia's Shenandoah Valley, then east on I-78 into northern New Jersey. The drive runs about 28 to 37 hours, and most households see delivery in four to six days. We confirm your exact window before pickup so it lines up with your move-in date.
Which New Jersey cities does RiverHills run dedicated routes to from San Antonio? expand_more
We build dedicated San Antonio route pages for Newark and Jersey City, the two anchors of the northern New Jersey corridor along I-78 and the Hudson waterfront. We also move households to other New Jersey towns on request — call (830) 329-7272 for a custom quote.
Does RiverHills drive the New Jersey move itself or hand it to another carrier? expand_more
We run the entire lane on our own trucks and crews under our own operating authority. The team that loads your home in San Antonio is the team that unloads it in Newark or Jersey City — no load board and no broker handoff partway up the interstate, which is exactly how a lot of long-distance moves go sideways.
When is the best time of year to move from San Antonio to New Jersey? expand_more
We move year-round, but spring and fall are the smoothest on this corridor. New Jersey winters bring real snow and ice on the northern end, so for December-through-February moves we watch the forecast up I-81 and I-78 and build in schedule flexibility for winter weather that Texas households rarely have to plan around.
Can you handle high-rise and gated-building access on the New Jersey end? expand_more
Yes. Jersey City's waterfront high-rises and many condo buildings require a certificate of insurance, a reserved freight elevator and a booked loading dock, while Newark's row-home blocks often mean tight street parking. We arrange the certificates of insurance, elevator reservations and gate or access paperwork on both ends before move day so the crew isn't stuck at the door.
