Student Moves Secrets Every Parent Needs To Know

August 18, 2014 by admin

Hey, are you the parent of a college student? Getting your kid set up in their new living situation, whether that’s a dorm, fraternity or sorority house, or off-campus apartment, can be quite a production – especially when you’re surrounded by what seems like thousands of other kids and their families trying to do the same thing at the same time.

Here’s a nifty secret: you don’t have to do it. You have two alternatives. The first, a tempting if not particularly wise choice, is to turn to your college student, say, “Welcome to adulthood. Sometimes it stinks!” and leave them completely on their lonesome to arrange their own move. What could possibly go wrong?

The second choice is to cut both your stress level and the risk of your kid’s stuff getting lost, stolen or broken in the process, is to have the professionals at Boston Pack and Ship handle it. They’re the student move specialist, whether your kid is headed across town, out of state, or even out of the country!

When you choose Boston Pack and Ship to handle your kid’s student move, here’s what happens: you give the Boston Pack and Ship team a call, let them know what has to happen and your timeline, and that’s it. They handle it all: packing your kid’s stuff, picking it up at your house, delivering it all through the traffic-clogged streets of a college town, and getting it set up. You? Can enjoy one last leisurely journey with your kid, focusing your attention on them as they start this amazingly exciting time of their lives.

There are literally 9 million things you will think “I should have told him…” or “She needs to know that…” as you’re driving away from dropping them off. When your attention’s not clogged up with the hassle of moving, you’re more likely to remember that stuff & tell it to your child. Let the Boston Pack and Ship team handle the hassle of moving. You concentrate on giving your kids the best possible start.

"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."

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!
