Choosing a Moving Company for the Special Needs Family

August 31, 2015 by admin

“Children who have autism don’t like change,” Garrett said. The Braintree homeowner recently accepted a new job in Georgia; while it means a lot more money for his family, it also meant a dramatic change for his son Oliver, who has autism. “Sometimes change is unavoidable. In those cases, you have to be strategic and work with the right professionals who can help you implement your decisions.”

“Any time you choose a Braintree moving company, you want to know you’re working with people who are trustworthy and who will treat your things with respect,” Garrett said. “But I had some additional criteria that had to be met as well.” To minimize the disruption to his son’s home life, Garrett wanted to have the entire move accomplished while his child was at school; there was a very tight window of approximately eight hours to pack and move everything out of the house. Garrett had a team ready to have his new home set up for him in Georgia, so when Oliver arrived there for the first time, his familiar furniture and possessions would be in place. “This meant we had to adhere to a very strict timeline. I needed a moving company that could absolutely assure me that this would happen.”

If you have similar special needs in your family, you’ll want to work with a Braintree moving company that’s experienced and professional. Adhering to a strict timeline for packing and shipping as well as delivery and set up will make everyone’s life a whole lot less stressful, and the move more pleasant for everyone.

"In August, my 83-year-old father fell down the cellar stairs and broke his elbow. Following elbow replacement surgery in Boston he was transferred to skilled nursing care in West Bridgewater. Unfortunately, the injury left him unable to maintain his own household. My husband and I made the decision to move him to our home in California. My time frame was incredibly short - 11 days till departure via airplane to CA. I needed to pack and ship whatever items would be going to CA. We would not be moving the entire household - just several paintings, memorabilia, clothing and a large full keyboard electronic piano. After calling several moving companies that required large weight minimums to bid the job, I was referred to Joe Fell at Boston Pack and Ship.

Joe was absolutely wonderful. He calmly explained the shipping options available through Boston Pack and Ship and they could definitely handle the job. Joe helped me locate appropriately sized shipping boxes so that I could pack things up myself, thereby saving money. He also stayed in constant contact with me via phone and email, coaching me through the shipping process. We scheduled pickup nine days after my arrival in MA. Joe became an instant friend to me throughout this extremely stressful time. His caring nature made this difficult move a great deal easier. I am very grateful to have found this wonderful company. "

I used Boston Pack and Ship to pick up, pack, and ship an Italian lounge chair from Boston to San Francisco. Excellent communication all along the way. They did an outstanding job packing the chair, it arrived in perfect condition. Couldn't be happier with the support from Gene and the team.

I used Boston Pack and Ship to send an antique piece of furniture from Boston to Sedona, AZ. I can't say enough about their service and the quality of the packing. Item arrived on the day they said it would and was in pristine condition. Easy to work with and great customer service. Highly recommend.

I hired Boston Pack and Ship to move two items from my storage unit in the Boston area to my home in Florida. Gene Sullivan was 110% responsive. He picked up the items on time, packed them expertly; and they arrived in perfect condition about ten days after pick up. I could not ask for better service. Five stars is not enough!

We at Casey Movers do not hesitate to refer our customers to this business for shipments we do not think we are best suited for (smaller inter-state shipments under 3,000lbs, etc). Have had great feedback from clients that have utilized this service. Thank you from all at Casey Movers for providing top notch service and have a great new year!
