The fastest quotes happen when we already know three things: where you’re moving from and to, roughly when, and roughly how much. Have these ready and Derek or Sofia can usually give you a real number in one call, not a range that gets revised twice later.
- Both ZIP codes. Origin and destination — this alone tells us whether it’s a Newton-area hourly job or an interstate run, and whether the destination has stairs, elevators, or a driveway we need to plan around.
- Your move date, or the week you’re targeting. Weekends in June and September book out fastest; a firm date locks in a crew, a rough window still gets you an estimate.
- A rough inventory. Studio, one-bedroom, three-bedroom colonial — you don’t need a room-by-room list, just the general size of the place and anything oversized: a piano, a gun safe, a sectional that won’t fit through a standard doorway.
- Building details that affect crew size. Third-floor walk-up, no elevator, a one-way street with nowhere to park the truck, a condo board that requires notice — tell us now and it’s accounted for on move day instead of discovered on it.
Local jobs run hourly: $135/hr for a 2-mover crew, $175/hr for 3 movers, $215/hr for 4, and $45/hr for each mover beyond that. Flat-rate options are also available for studio through 3-bedroom-plus homes, generally landing between $475 and $2,150 depending on size; households larger than that are quoted hourly once Derek’s seen the place. A $150 deposit holds your date and gets credited straight to the final invoice. Call (617) 429-6053, use the form below, or email [email protected] with the details above.
