My subletter fell through at the last minute, and I had 24 hours to move out of my North End walk-up. I called 617 Boston Movers in a panic, and they found a slot for me the same evening. They climbed four flights without complaint, handled tight corners, and didn’t damage a thing. I still can’t believe how quickly and kindly they responded. Some companies say last-minute, but these folks actually deliver.

Noah Thomson1 year ago

Maine could have been stressful moving from Allston to Portland, but 617 Boston Movers made the whole process smooth and easy. The team was careful with all our belongings, our bike, plants, and kitchen items were handled thoughtfully. They picked everything up near Harvard Ave, traveled to Maine without any problems, and arrived at our new West End home right on time. They even helped place the couch exactly where we wanted it.

Scott Livingston4 months ago

Us moving from the South End to Back Bay was already a big job, especially with my large home office and those fragile glass boards I bought during the pandemic. They crack easily if they’re tilted the wrong way, so I was honestly nervous about transporting them. The team at 617 Boston Movers handled everything carefully. They measured each board, packed them upright, and secured them with cardboard corners to keep them protected.

Lauren Anderson5 months ago

They arrived early, walked through the space with us, and immediately got to work. We had dozens of monitors, shelving units, and delicate samples, but they packed everything neatly, labeled each box, and made the process look effortless.

Joshua Rogers10 months ago

We used 617 Boston Movers for our long-distance move from Cambridge, MA to Pennsylvania in June 2025, and the entire experience was so much better than we expected. My husband got a job offer with just six weeks’ notice, and the stress of relocating from a townhouse we’d lived in for nearly 8 years was building fast. After calling around and comparing nearly a dozen long distance movers in Boston, 617 Boston Movers stood out immediately for their responsiveness, honest approach, and positive customer reviews for interstate moves.

Katrina Thornton10 months ago

Booked a last-minute move from Boston to Florida. Honestly thought no one would take it, but 617 Boston Movers fit me in. The team drove out the next morning and had my furniture set up before lunch. Lifesaver!
