Meaning of the Name “Bergen”
The origin of the name of Bergen County is a matter of debate. It is believed that the County is
named for one of the earliest settlements, Bergen, settled in 1660 in the area known today as
Jersey City Heights in Hudson County. Several earlier sources attribute the name to Bergen,
Norway, while others attribute it to Bergen op Zoom in the Netherlands. Still others attribute it to
the Dutch word meaning “hill” or “place of safety”. Some sources say that the name is derived
from one of the earliest settlers of Nieuw Amsterdam (now New York City), Hans Hansen
Bergen, a native of Norway, who arrived in New Netherlands in 1633.
The name “Bergen,” originally derived from the word for “hill” in Norway, Belgium and the
Netherlands, was applied to towns located on hills. New Jersey’s Bergen was originally a
settlement on a hill. Therefore, the currently accepted theory is, that the geographical location of
the original town is the most likely reason it was called Bergen.
The name “Bergen” was later applied to the County, which was established in 1683.

Used these guys to move me few weeks ago. Very professional, a real moving company, not just a bunch of guys with a truck. They showed up on time and completed the move within the estimated time frame. Everything was as you would expect from a reputable company. I will definitely use them again the next time I move.

Very professional business. The 2 man crew arrived on time and made the moving process easy. They were very careful with the handling of our items and made sure that the furniture was wrapped up properly so it wouldn’t get scratched during the move. I would highly recommend them and would definitely use their services again.

Movers 201 is awesome. They’ve been donating their services to my local elementary school for the past several years. They’ve taken on the delicate task of moving a grand piano. They’ve been on time professional and speedy. And best of all super friendly!
