Moving Prices

The number of movers you need for your move in Boston can depend on several factors, including the size of your home, the amount of belongings you have, and how far you’re moving. Generally:

For a studio or 1-bedroom apartment, 2 movers are usually sufficient.
For a 2-bedroom apartment, consider 2-3 movers.
For larger homes (3 bedrooms or more), you might need 3-4 movers.
If you have heavy furniture, a lot of boxes, several flights of stairs having extra help can speed up the process. Consult with moving specialist and we will provide specific recommendations based on your needs.

When it comes to local moving quotes, they are non-binding and based on an hourly rate + travel time. This means that the final cost can vary depending on several factors, such as the amount of time it takes to complete the move and travel to your place, the number of movers required, and any additional services you might need. You only pay for the actual time spent on your move, which can help you manage costs effectively.
