jqgrid doc in here contains:

method allow to reorder the grid columns using the mouse. The only necessary setting in this case is to set the sortable option in jqGrid to true.

I have sortable: true but columns cannot reordered by dragging headers by mouse. How to re-order columns by dragging columns headers or other way without using column chooser ?

    To implement sortable columns is really easy. You should just follow the documentation. You should just

    1. include jquery-ui.min.js additionally to jquery-ui.css which are always required. The most people have the file already included because of usage jQuery UI Widgets like Datepicker, Autocomplete, Tabs and so on.
    2. add sortable: true option to the grid.

    Now you can already (see the demo) drag the column header and drop it on another position.
