Cambridge Mover Reviews
Jim and Jim were great. They were on time , let us know when they would arrive. they were careful with our things and loaded the truck well and with a smile. Thank you so much would definitely recommend and use again.!
Extremely prepared and helpful. Worked quickly, very polite.
The guys could not have been more amazing. I was a nervous wreck about my move and they came in and took charge. They were on time, worked fast and efficiently & could not have been more respectful and kind. I will 100% recommend them to anyone who needs movers. Just wish they could be in Florida to unpack me when I arrive.
Top Movers did an outstanding job emptying 3 of our Pods. They were very professional and courteous taking exceptional care of our furniture when unloading. I would strongly recommend them to anyone.
Super kind and respectful plus hard working - muito obrigado!
Wicked Smooth Movers were awesome. Great communication, great flexibility, and careful and efficient work. Thanks so much to Craig and his team! I highly recommend them!
I couldn’t be happier with this moving company. They were super friendly and conscientious. They were on time and moved everything quickly with no issues. I would definitely recommend!!
Great job
They were very efficient and they were sure to wrap all my leather goods in blankets
They did a great job!
Nick and Dog were the best! Incredibly fast and efficient. I am usually a really nervous person but it was actually a lot of fun because they were great conversationalists and they knew exactly what they were doing. My furniture was moved without a scratch and I am a very happy customer :) Definitely would recommend
Courteous and got right to work
Personable, reliable and no matter how hard getting furniture out the door, they get it done beautifully!! Very impressive!! Thanks, Trish
Excellent movers, fast, friendly, and timely. I would recommend them to anyone moving in the Boston area.
They were a friendly and efficient team. They moved quickly and solved problems as they arose. Very heavy lifting from basement to third floor, both directions. I couldn;t have asked for more. I'd hire them again in a flash. Robert Labaree Brookline
Showed up on time, were very thorough in making sure everything was going to the right places. Would definitely recommend them.
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.
Jotham and Stephen were early. They were efficient respectful of my belongings. Both very hard working. If I was t moving out of state I would have requested them to unpack me as well. I would highly recommend these two as well as Oscars moving company!
Hands-down the best movers we’ve ever had. They were efficient and moved everything within the given time and nothing was broken. Next time we move I will book with them for sure!
Waddell movers communicated clearly, arrived on time, unloaded ahead of deadline. This crew worked with my schedule during one of the busiest moving weekends. Recommended and will use again for future moves.
Excellent customer service

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.

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.

Super professional and actually gave a **** about my stuff. I’m not used to watching other people work but that’s what I did with them. Very efficient and would use them all the time if I was staying in the area. Was super nice and timely
Top movers are THE TOP Movers. If I ever mmove again, I would only use this company. So professional, courteous, capable, and fast acting, Communication was top knotch all the way. Thanks so much!!!!
They were very hard workers and I would hire them again in a heartbeat. They busted their ass to get it all done. Great job team! However, I feel that the platform has structural issues. There should be better instructions for both the mover and the person hiring them. I would recommend using them again. Thank you.
This team was on time and ready to go..! They worked very hard. Treated all items and me like a professional...! One of them found a ring on the floor... that may or may not be a diamond ring...and gave it to me...! Honesty is a rare thing these days and I appreciate it...!
The team was very responsive to my needs. I appreciate the call the day before and the morning of the move to verify time, location and my needs. The team was professional and took great care in moving my belongings. I will highly recommend their services to others in my complex.
Nick and Dog were the best! Incredibly fast and efficient. I am usually a really nervous person but it was actually a lot of fun because they were great conversationalists and they knew exactly what they were doing. My furniture was moved without a scratch and I am a very happy customer :) Definitely would recommend

Timely, diligent, careful and responsive to concerns. Having worked in this business putting myself through school, I know the difference between a team that is going through the motions and a team that actually understands how stressful moving can be. Definitely the latter. Strongly recommend.
