Good movers in Boston?

Formerly of Brighton, now located in Arlington. Local operated and owned.

Worked for them out of college while looking for a post college job years back, and it was a great experience. Probably got me in the best shape I've ever been in.

They pride themselves on literally running around the competition and getting their jobs done quicker and to their customers satisfaction. I remember moving a person INTO an apartment before the previous tenet and their movers had them out, after showing up 5 hours late and bring kids on S break to do the moving. Got a big tip and the embarrassed lady moving out took our card "for next time".

Their quotes are usually slightly more then the bigger places, but as long as you're 100% honest of whats going and what jobs you want, they typically run under their quote because of that quickness. (Some people are really bad at adding on extra's like basements full of junk after the quote for just the living spaces, or deciding day of they want you to pack; a moving no-no if you expect to come in at or below quote)

Frank and Richard run a pretty good business.

And be sure to tip, wages are ok but not for busting you butt up 3 flights of stairs with cherry wood bedroom sets, and trying to get the job done under quote for you. If you are impressed with a moving service, tips are very much welcomed if not expected for a job well done. If it's a small apartment/move, a cheap subshop lunch is plenty, and anything under 90 min work don't bother.

I think it's interesting that not one comment has been about how X moving company was bad. For some reason MA has excellent moving companies compared to other parts of the country. I have used maybe 3 companies for moves within Boston and they have all been very good.
