The Best Boston Moving Company for Small Household Moves

August 14, 2019 by admin

When you’re looking for the best moving company to handle your small household move, you may be surprised to hear the name Boston Pack and Ship. It’s true – we’re a packing and shipping company – but for 30+ years, we’ve also been helping homeowners, renters, families, businesses and college students move. We specialize in small load moves – think the amount of stuff that fits in a typical dorm room or studio apartment – and we never charge a minimum load fee, which means we offer the best value in town.

Local Small Moves – Choose Boston’s Best

Have you ever driven a moving truck before? If the answer to that question is no, we’d humbly suggest choosing some location other than Boston, MA for your first experience. Driving through Boston’s busy, narrow streets can be nerve-wracking enough without being responsible for a large vehicle filled with everything you own. Working with professional movers in Boston means you don’t have to worry about traffic, construction or accidents – let our experienced team of expert drivers handle everything.

Save Money on Your Small Move

Everyone’s got a budget, and you don’t want to spend more than you have to on your small move. This is especially true if you’re moving long distance or moving internationally. Because we’re a pack and ship company, we can provide our small move clientele the full range of options for relocating their household, including shipping household goods, international shipping, and freight shipping services as needed. This versatility means you save money.

Tips to Save Money on Your Small Move

Downsize – Just because you don’t have a lot of stuff means you need or want everything you do have. A household move is the ideal time to purge the wardrobe, thin out household possessions, and get rid of the things that have been weighing you down.

Schedule – Especially for local moves, choosing middle of the week, middle of the month is the most affordable time. Move pricing is based on availability so you want to avoid the busy times – the beginning and end of the month, the beginning and end of the week.

"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."

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!
