Massachusetts: How To Find Great Movers

May 15, 2011 by admin

Whether you’re planning a small local move or are relocating across the country, you know that moving is a big job. Finding a great Massachusetts moving company is essential – everyone will recommend you work with great professional movers to make the move easier and relatively stress free. How do you find the best Massachusetts movers? Here are some criteria to keep in mind:

Choose The Best!

You’ve spent a lifetime accumulating and acquiring your possessions. These things are meaningful to you. Protect your investment and your emotions by choosing professional movers who are really, really good. Poor quality movers can really be worse than having no movers at all.

Get Referrals From People Who Know Moving!

Real estate agents are a great source of insider information where moving companies are involved. Don’t be afraid to tap your family and friends for referrals too, especially if they’ve moved recently. Ask them what Massachusetts moving company they used.

Licensing

Moving is serious business! Only consider movers that are licensed, bonded and insured. Any moving company should be happy to share this information with you. If they’re not – red flag! Run away!

Do Due Diligence Research

Check out potential movers online, with the Better Business Bureau, and with the US DOT. You want to work with a Massachusetts packing and shipping company that has a sterling reputation.

Price Matters!

You’ll want to get an estimate from your potential moving company. If a price seems too low to be believed, be wary – this is often a red flag sign that there may be trouble down the road. A low price can rise dramatically with hidden fees and last minute charges – and all of your possessions are already on their truck! Choose a moving company that has no minimum load size requirement. That way you’re not paying for more moving truck space than you really need.

"We called Boston Pack and Ship looking for someone who would ship four pieces of furniture, 12 picture boxes and two book boxes from Scituate, Massachusetts to Bellingham, Washington. The furniture included a sideboard, a dresser, a drop leaf table and a secretary desk. We knew that we didn't have enough for the usual moving company but these were things that our daughter wanted to have as they had belonged to her grandmother. Bill Yankee was most helpful. He arranged to have the items picked up and then they were then carefully packed before being shipped. Throughout, we were kept advised of the progress of the shipment and its arrival time. We felt that they took exceptional care with our belongings and were most conscientious - as well as courteous and helpful."
