Press Release

NEWARK – The New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs has proposed amendments to regulations governing the conduct of licensed public movers and/or warehousemen.   

P.L. 2019, c. 216 revised requirements for the information brochure that licensed public movers and/or warehousemen are required to provide consumers.  The new requirements permit the brochure to be provided either in written or digital form.  The proposal amends Division regulations to effectuate P.L. 2019, c. 216. The proposal also allows licensed public movers and/or warehousemen to perform physical inspections through electronic means, revises standards for exceptions to liability for damages to consumer’s goods, and allows for more short-notice moves by increasing the price limit for such moves.

The proposed amendments, and information on how to submit a comment by June 19, 2020, can be viewed here.
