Job summary

Expedite Moving in Rahway, NJ is seeking a Moving Foreman to lead a crew on residential and commercial moves. You’ll walk jobs, protect belongings, and set the tone for safety and efficiency on site.

As the on-site leader, you’ll coordinate 2–4 movers, communicate clearly with customers, and handle piano moves, safes, and other heavy items. Competitive base pay plus tips and growth opportunities are offered.

Qualifications

  • 2+ years of professional moving experience, with time spent leading or running a crew.
  • Strong communication skills — clear, calm, and professional with customers and crew alike.
  • Hands-on skill with TVs, furniture disassembly/reassembly, pianos, safes, and other heavy or awkward items.
  • Proper technique for padding, wrapping, and loading a truck so nothing gets damaged.
  • Physically able to lift 75+ lbs repeatedly and work on your feet for a full day in all weather.
  • Reliable, punctual, and drug-free; able to pass a background check.
  • A professional, customer-ready appearance and attitude.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the crew on site — direct a team of 2–4 movers on each job: assign roles, set the pace, keep everyone safe, and make the call when a plan needs to change.
  • Own the customer relationship on the job — greet the customer, walk the job, set expectations, answer questions calmly, and handle concerns before they become complaints.
  • Do the skilled work — dismount and remount wall-mounted TVs, disassemble and reassemble furniture, and safely move specialty items including baby grand and upright pianos, safes, sheds, appliances, and fragile/high-value pieces.
  • Protect the goods and the home — pad, shrink-wrap, and box items properly; use floor runners, door jamb protectors, and straps; load and secure the truck so nothing shifts in transit.
  • Run the paperwork — complete bills of lading, inventory sheets, condition reports, and payment collection accurately and completely.
  • Coach and set the standard — train newer movers on proper technique, and model the professionalism and hustle you expect from the crew.
  • Keep equipment ready — make sure the truck, dollies, straps, and pads are stocked, clean, and in good working order before and after each job.
