Tips For Boston Student Moves

January 26, 2016 by admin

Most people think Boston student moves happen only at the beginning and end of the semester. While that timing certainly applies to the majority of student moves, the truth is that student moves can happen at any time. Students decide to switch programs, have personal or family crisis that require making a move, or simply find a nicer place to stay. Here’s what you need to know to make these moves successful and simple:

Hire The Student Moving Pros So You Can Concentrate on What’s Important

As a busy college student, you have a lot on your plate, and there are only so many hours in the day. Use your time wisely by letting the Boston student moving professionals handle packing and moving your stuff from one location to the next: you will be better served concentrating on your classes, working your internship or making money at your job. A full service student moving company will pack your stuff in boxes, carry it out of your place, and bring it to your new digs for you: all you have to do is show up and say, “This is where I live now!”

Ask About Minimum Load Size Charges

If you’re a student in Boston, odds are that you’re watching your budget. When you have to spend money, you want to do it wisely. That means asking about minimum load charges when choosing a student moving company. Did you know some companies will charge you for truck space you don’t need and can’t use? That’s ridiculous. Choose a Boston student moving company that doesn’t charge a minimum load fee!

"My mother was living in a retirement community in Massachusetts. After she passed, there were three groups of items that needed to go to three different locations. One of those groups contained a large china cabinet. This had much sentimental value for me but it needed refinishing before having it shipped to my home in Virginia. I was referred to Boston Pack and Ship. They advised me to ship it directly to a refinisher to save me from having to move the cabinet one more time. Boston Pack and Ship stored the china cabinet while I searched for a refinisher near my home. Long story short, I found a refinisher here in Virginia and Boston Pack and Ship prepared the china cabinet for delivery. It arrived safe and sound to the refinisher on schedule who said it was ‘beautifully wrapped and protected’. I can’t thank Bill and Boston Pack and Ship enough for their help in getting my china cabinet to me safely. Most importantly, they were caring and patient at a difficult time in my life."

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!
