Boston Student Moves: What To Do Now That The Semester’s Over!

May 23, 2011 by admin

In a few hours, students all over Boston will be waking from the graduation parties, bleary eyed and facing one of the first challenges of life after school. What’s the best way for students to move all of their stuff after college is done? Whether you’re heading home or getting ready to move to a new city to start your career, you’ll need to move your clothes, books, computer, and all of the rest of your stuff.

Boston Student Moving Secret: Pack and Ship

The best way to move your stuff after college is to call a Boston pack and ship company that specializes in small moves.  Many moving companies charge a minimum load size.  This means if you don’t have enough stuff to completely fill a moving truck you still have to pay for all of the space – space you’re not using!

There are several reasons that using a moving company to bring your stuff home from school is a smarter choice than trying to move on your own.  Items like computers, musical instruments, scientific equipment or artwork are difficult to transport safely.  Customized packaging solutions means having the properly sized boxes to pack all of your gear safely and securely so it can make the journey without being damaged. It’s more than boxes – having the right packing material to protect your items in transit is essential.  Moving computers, servers, delicate electronics or other high tech becomes safer when you choose foam-in-place technology.  Foam-in-place technology specially molds a protective cushion around your computers, keeping it safe from drops, falls, shock, moisture, and other hazards.

Don’t forget that using a good company for your Boston student moves also saves you time.  School is done and it’s all systems go. Time to launch a career and your new life! Why waste precious hours or days moving your stuff when the Boston student moving specialist can do it for you?

"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!
