"My parents are fantastic," Mackenzie said. "They'd do anything for me. But Mom has serious health issues and Dad is her caregiver.

Boston Student Move Tips

April 3, 2013 by admin

Before the End of the Semester Move: "Moving? No problem! I'll just call up a few of my frat brothers, and it'll take us no time!" After the End of the Semester Move: "Man! I can't believe my TV got broke. So much of my stuff got wrecked - and my frat brother is made at me because he hurt his back moving my stuff. Like that's my responsibility?"

"I needed to bring a few pieces of furniture from my parents' home in Connecticut to my home in Watertown and move a few additional pieces to Bethesda, Maryland. This was not a large project, but complicated to arrange. I had to go to southern Connecticut in order to meet the moving truck, which involved coordinating my schedule with their availability and then arrange for the drop-off at each end of the move. In spite of my schedule constraints on my part, waffling (on my part) and the overall complexity of the task at hand, Joe Fell [of Boston Pack and Ship] was invariably helpful, responsive and patient. In the end, the move went smoothly and I very much appreciated their efforts."

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!
