Providence Mover Reviews
Two of the nicest guys you ever want to meet. I will definitely use them again. They were brothers.
These guys are the best!! Great communication and professionalism from the whole team.
Mathew and Trey did an excellent job. They were both very friendly and got everything done very quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend them both.
Professional, friendly and hard working. Will def use again
I had a wonderful experience. The two men you sent were absolutely great. They worked very hard and had a big job to do. Thank you all
I couldn’t be happier with Pink Zebra Moving! Nick and Travis were awesome—really friendly, professional, and they took great care of all my stuff. They made the whole move a breeze (really, it was so eazy I had to look for something for myself to do while they're working). Scheduling with Matt was also super easy—he made everything simple and clear over the phone. If you need movers who are reliable and easy to work with, definitely give them a go!! Plus, they also gave us a bag of nice small gifts at the end with a handwritten card!
They did a great job, and were super quick! Very impressed, and would definitely recommend.
They were total heroes, super professional, super friendly, super flexible, super quick! will be using them again
Personable, reliable and no matter how hard getting furniture out the door, they get it done beautifully!! Very impressive!! Thanks, Trish
Nice, smooth, and efficient.
Excellent movers, fast, friendly, and timely. I would recommend them to anyone moving in the Boston area.
The movers arrived right on time and did an amazing job. They were very professional and courteous. I was tremendously impressed with the care they took both with the house and with the items they moved out of it. They carefully wrapped each piece of furniture to ensure it would remain safe through the move. I could not believe how quickly the piles of boxes and groupings of furniture left my home and were carefully packed inside the storage container. Some of my boxes were very heavy with books and photos and they often ran down the stairs carrying multiple boxes at a time. I would highly recommend Pleasant Moving of Boston and would not hesitate to use them again myself.
The crew was very respectful and ready to work as soon as they got there. They were impressed on how well all pieces were wrapped by ME and took pictures because of this. I have no objection to their work or manners. It's just a shame that all businesses are charging these prices for such a short distance move and no stairs. I did quite a bit of work and all boxes were already at the storage unit on the property.
They arrived right at the start of the window and got to work unloading the POD. Across a parking lot and up a flight of stairs and got it done in 2 hours. They were careful with my items and respectful of my home. They even helped me put some bedroom furniture back together.
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.
The guys were friendly, amazing, and fast! I will absolutely recommend Hire a Helper and IJC Logistics to everyone I know that needs to move. I am very impressed with their professionalism and how rapidly they completed both ends of my move. Well done!!

Major Neighborhoods in Providence
Providence is where history and creativity collide, making it one of New England’s most vibrant cities. Home to Brown University and Rhode Island School of Design, this city has energy, from the cobblestones of Benefit Street to the lively waterfront at Waterplace Park. Imagine sipping coffee on Thayer Street or catching an art exhibit downtown—Providence perfectly blends the old and the new. When it’s time to move, trust local movers who know every twist and turn of its charming, narrow streets.
Riverwalk
The Riverwalk in Providence is a go-to spot if you love being outdoors. It runs along the Woonasquatucket River and hooks you up with awesome views and easy access to Waterplace Park. Whether you’re into jogging, casual strolls, or just chilling by the water, this place has you covered. Living nearby means you’re close to downtown but still get that peaceful waterfront vibe. If you're moving here, make sure to get movers who know the area—especially during busy weekends.
Wayland Square
Wayland Square on Providence’s East Side is one of those neighborhoods where everything just feels cozy. You’ve got boutique shops, cool cafes like Books on the Square and L’Artisan Cafe & Bakery right on Wayland Avenue and Angell Street. The residential streets like Irving Avenue make it a great spot for families and professionals who want that close-knit community vibe. If you’re moving here, definitely go with movers who know how to handle those narrow, old-school streets.
Downtown Providence
Downtown Providence is where all the action happens. You’ve got the Providence Place Mall for shopping, the Rhode Island Convention Center for events, and tons of dining spots. Westminster Street is great for some eclectic shopping, and in the summer, WaterFire events light up the rivers—super cool vibe. Streets like Dorrance and Washington connect you to everything, but they can get busy. So, if you’re moving here, get movers who know how to navigate the traffic and parking challenges.
Federal Hill
Federal Hill, aka Providence’s "Little Italy," is a lively neighborhood with cultural heritage and culinary delights. Atwells Avenue is the main drag, packed with authentic Italian spots—think cafes, bakeries, and restaurants where the food’s legit. DePasquale Plaza is perfect for outdoor dining and people-watching. The area gets especially lively around festivals, with Dean Street and Acorn Street full of action. If you're moving to Federal Hill, get movers who handle busy streets.

Javi and his crew did a fantastic job moving my mother into her new apartment. They were incredibly thorough in wrapping and handling her items as well. Even assembled the bed for her. Great communication throughout from a very nice and courteous team. Would highly recommend them!!
Mathew and Trey did an excellent job. They were both very friendly and got everything done very quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend them both.
I had a truly horrible moving experience until Fortex came to help. Everything that could go wrong did with POD, previous tenants, etc. — but Fortex was not only quick and convenient but also flexible, friendly, and made everything so much easier for me.
They were on time, easy to communicate with and moved my studio apartment in less than 4 hours on both ends. Would recommend and use for my next move in a heartbeat!
Eric and Ronan packed our pod. I cannot recommend them enough! They worked very hard, were super efficient and assured me our stuff would fit and it did! They were very polite, even with our 2 dogs barking! If I wasn't moving out of the area, I'd request them again. Thanks!!
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
Ryan, the team head, was outstanding in every regard, anticipating our needs and wven suggesting ideas when we were stuck. He was friendly, cheerful and polite. Hector was terrific and added humor just when we needed it (as did Ryan) and the third (can’t recall his name) grabbed the broom and swept out the pods without even being asked! I’d love to work with them again!
We hired a 2-man crew for a 2 hour job, one bedroom apartment, 16' Penske moving truck. Pleasant Moving crew arrived 15 mins early and with 3 workers! They went right to work, were careful, respectful, and understanding. They finished in 1.25 hours! Of course we paid for the full 2 hours but for just 2 workers so it all worked out perfectly. Highly recommend!!
Javi and Gabe did a fantastic job packing up my mother’s townhome. Very meticulous packing of all items and great communication throughout the moving process. Would highly recommend their services!
Just wanted to let you know how much we appreciated the hard work of Alain & Zee. They showed up on time and ready to work. I would highly recommend them to family and friends. Thanks again guys
Short and to the point. The team arrived a little early instead of late. They moved everything quickly and cleanly. No breakage or damage even with a difficult staircase to manage. I will use them for my next move.
Stead fast in there work in time.with me. In time the they were faster then other ones. Far better then I thought they would be.its a good choice to use them for help.
