Wow, Frank and his crew came through in a big way! My Buddy team showed at their designated time, even phoned ahead to notify of their ETA. Upon arrival, Frank goes into action, assessing the unloading of the truck and move into an apt. Once that was complete, he organized his team and they got to work. They handled every item in the truck and up the 3 flights with respect and without hesitation. This was the last move of the day for them. Yet they showed up enthusiastic and executed an efficient and professional move. I recommend and would utilize the My Buddy team again.

Major Neighborhoods in Cambridge

When one thinks of Cambridge, a picturesque Massachusetts city located across the Charles River and the city of Boston, its iconic red brick and universities likely come to mind But aside from its revered Ivy League institutions, Cambridge offers locals plenty of entertainment opportunities, like bountiful farmer’s markets, awe-worthy museums, and exciting venues like Fenway Park. You’re also treated to a plethora of resturants, bars, and cafes, no matter if you’re in the mood for upscale tapas at Little Donkey or brunch at Cafe Luna. Whether you’re a student moving for Harvard University or the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), or just want to live in a city with a great education and more, be sure to choose one of many experienced local moving companies to help you reach your new home without a hitch.

Kendall Square

Kendall Square is a burgeoning neighborhood known for being the city’s home of tech and biotech innovations. But the area’s not just made up of startups and labs, either. You have your pick of great food at local favorites like pita wraps and flavored lemonades at CAVA, or spend some time at State Park — a bar with live music, despite the name. If you’re interested in an actual park, you can enjoy nature by visiting Squirrel Brand Park and Community Garden. And whenever you need groceries, or are in the mood for fresh baked goods and coffee, you can shop at the iconic Brothers Marketplace. Sounds like a perfect fit? Then leave the logistics to the local movers who know the area. Their know-how will make your move a breeze. home to tech giants.

Central Square

Home to MIT, the Central Square neighborhood has an incredibly unique vibe. In fact, the Mass Cultural Council designated it the official Cultural District of Massachusetts. It’s probably thanks to popular spots like Miracle of Science Bar + Grill, where the menu is labeled and organized like the periodic table of elements, and the two award-winning theater companies under one roof at the Central Square Theater. And there's bound to be a shop for any hobby you have, whether that's thrifting at FOUND, or games and sci-fi novels at Pandemonium. If you're already planning to start packing, make sure you check out our list of local movers. They're familiar with the area (and university crowds!) and will help you get to your new home completely stress-free.

Harvard Square

Harvard Square is one of the city’s oldest and most popular neighborhoods. The historic Colonial-era buildings are the perfect backdrop to the area’s most iconic landmark: Harvard University. Thanks to the school being front and center, you can enjoy a host of fascinating museums, including the Harvard Museum of Natural History and the Collection of Historical Scientific Instruments. You’re also right in the middle of the myriad of eateries that serve the big student population, including Felipe’s Taqueria, a hotspot for great burritos, and Sakana, a cozy and delicious sushi restaurant. Because this is one of the city’s busiest communities, consider hiring a local moving company to handle the relocation and traffic for you. You’ll be glad you left it to the pros!

Porter Square

When walking around Porter Square, you’ll undoubtedly notice Gift of the Wind, a kinetic sculpture that really encapsulates the neighborhood art scene. There are more creative works to be found at the Lunder Arts Center on the Lesley University campus. Residents love the open-air Porter Square Shopping Center which includes a toy store, knitting boutique, and bookstores. The area is a little quieter than other neighborhoods hosting the bigger universities, so it’s great for those looking for something a little less hectic while still being close to plenty of MTBA stations that provide easy access to the rest of the city. Whenever you decide to make Porter Square your new home, be sure to choose local movers to help make your relocation go smoothly.
