Apartment and condo buildings across Watertown and Waltham almost always come with rules attached — a certificate of insurance for the building office, a reserved elevator window, a loading dock that’s first-come unless it’s booked. Sofia Marchetti has handled scheduling since 2017, and she’s usually on the phone with the building manager or condo board days before move day, not scrambling the morning of.
Crews run the same hourly rates as any local job — $135/hr for two movers up to $215/hr for four — and a flat rate applies for larger units. Studios and one-bedrooms typically run $475 to $975 depending on load, two- and three-bedroom units $975 to $1,475. Whatever the building requires gets sorted before the truck shows up, not negotiated with a doorman at 9 a.m.

Pricing For This Service
Crew size sets your hourly rate — $135/hr for two movers, $175/hr for three, $215/hr for four — and if you’d rather have a firm number going in, Owen or Derek can walk the place ahead of time and write one up
The truck, dollies, and furniture pads all ride inside that hourly rate, not billed separately: $135 for two movers, $175 for three, $215 for four, and $45/hr for each additional mover after that. A $150 deposit holds your date and gets credited straight to the final invoice. Basic coverage is included on every job, and a pre-move walkthrough — in person around Newton, over video for anything farther out — is available any time you want a firmer estimate before move day.
