Can I safely move during the COVID-19 crisis?
Yes! We are safely supervising moves, unpacking and organizing for clients who would rather not be on-site on move days during this time. Don’t make moving more stressful than it already is. Leave it to us.
Can you help me hire a moving company?
Yes! We can collect all the information you need to request estimates from moving companies and are available to meet an on-site estimator at your home. We suggest getting more than one estimate.
Can I hire you if I’ve already hired a moving company?
Definitely! We work with all moving companies. Our Simplified Moves support extends beyond just supervising on move days and we’re happy to coordinate with any moving company of your choosing.
Will you help me pack?
Totally up to you! We can deliver the packing materials you will need, help you pack up non-breakable items as well as helping sort through and donate unwanted items. We recommend having your movers pack all fragile items to ensure they are covered by insurance.
Do you help people moving internationally to or from the Boston area?
Yes, we have assisted many people to relocate internationally and welcomed students and families moving to the Boston area. Our knowledge of the local area and relationships with home vendors is key to a smooth transition when moving to a new area.
How far in advance should I plan my move?
We recommend beginning your move process 3 months in advance. But we know that for many people moves aren’t able to be planned that far in advance -- don’t worry, we’ll help you get your move organized no matter the timeline.
What happens if my moving date changes?
Our team is flexible and happy to accomodate any changes to your move dates. We’ll be in close contact during your move and able to adapt your move plan as needed.
