Really Going Home For the Holidays: Boston Student Moves

December 8, 2015 by admin

“If my Dad says “Well, you gave it the old college try” one more time, I’m going to explode,” Val said. She’d come to Boston this fall to attend graduate classes, but quickly discovered her program wasn’t exactly right for her. “I don’t really want to get into too much detail here, but when you know something’s not going to work, there’s no point in trying to force it,” she said. “I stuck it out for one semester, but now it’s time to pack up my stuff and head for greener pastures.”

Transferring to a different grad school took a great deal of time and energy. “I just didn’t have anything left to devote to moving,” Val said. “So I looked for a Boston student moving company, and told them what I needed.” Val had been sharing an apartment with two other grad students. “I didn’t have a whole lot of stuff – the couch, table, all that kind of stuff, belongs to my room mates. So all I needed was someone to come in, pack up my things and get them on the truck.”

“You hear all these horror stories about moving companies holding your stuff hostage,” Val said. “That’s why you’ve got to do a little research ahead of time. Don’t just grab any old flyer in the student union. Find an actual moving company that specializes in student moves. Work with someone who does this as a business – they’re not looking to get rich with phony fees or by flat out stealing your stuff.”

Even though grad school didn’t work out the way she’d hoped, Val doesn’t regret the time she spent in Boston. “This is a great town, with lots of fantastic people. I’m sure I’ll be back – maybe even to stay, next time!”

"I used Boston Pack and Ship to move from San Francisco to Boston. There was a bit of a lag period of about a month from when my items were picked up to when I arrived in Boston. The company was great at accommodating my schedule. I was so overwhelmed when I arrived to Boston! It was quite comforting that the movers were punctual, professional and kind and that all my things arrived in great condition. The movers were even kind enough to install my window AC when they realized it was too heavy for me to pick up! I would definitely recommend Boston Pack and Ship."
