    I used this moving company for a 9/1 move. I made reservations with them the previous April. As…read moresomeone who has moved quite a bit (including 2 cross country moves) I am pretty good at giving a moving company all pertinent information relating to my move so we can move, pun intended, as quickly as possible. While the movers (including the owner) did show up on time, that was about all they did correctly for my move. It took them almost 4 hours to move the large pieces of furniture from my 1 bedroom apartment (with an elevator) into the truck. I had already moved all boxes and small items myself to the loading area prior to their arrival. The movers had NO EQUIPMENT, not even gloves, to carry anything or expedite the process. When we arrived at my new location (2nd floor walk up in JP) They seem to take their time moving things in (I moved more in then they did) and when my couch needed to be hoisted up, the owner seemed to be upset with me. He told me time and again during the day about how they know how to move people in Boston. "This is our business. We know what we are doing." Yet, they had no equipment and were unprepared to hoist anything. The total move took 8 hours! Then the owner made it seem like he was doing me a favor by coming back 2 days later and hoisting my couch up. Not only will I not use them again but after the near $1000 I spent, I actively recommend against them!

From the first interaction with Melissa to the final box being off loaded, it was simply a pleasure. There were no damages, the guys worked hard and never complained. They were on-time, fair and professional. I cannot recommend this company or crew enough. Thank you "The Movers of Boston!"

    The moving crew was great, but the people giving the quotes are not the movers that you work with…read more They estimated it would take around 8 hours and it wound up taking the crew 15. This really should have been a two day job, the crew and we were exhausted by the end of the day. I'm not really upset about the cost difference because I knew what their hourly rate was. The crew really wanted to get it all wrapped up for us by the end of the day instead of stretching to another day because they had another job the next day bright and early. The booking office is really putting their workers through the wringer and I don't appreciate that. The crew was kind and delicate with our items. They were being gracious and offering to do whatever we wanted with regards to helping pack remaining items, disassembling and reassembling furniture, and organizing things at the new house. I may have taken note of their time for these things if it hadn't been clear by noon that this was going to already be a very long day. By 10pm I was just happy to have everything remaining that we own in the garage. So I did enjoy the crew, but if you go with this company and have a lot of stuff then you need to do some legwork yourself to get an accurate estimate. I had a three bedroom 1700 sqft house with a large basement and garage and it took 15 hours and cost $4k.

    We had a very specific moving constraints and the team at Phoenix made it a breeze. Excellent…read morecommunication, flexible and arrived prepared and on time. Pricing was straightforward and transparent. Couldn't ask for a smoother process. Highly recommend them.

    I had the BEST experience with Prime Moving! Sam, Michael, and their crew arrived after a phone…read morecall to let me know they were on their way. If moving is a stressful event, these are the guys you want pulling into your driveway. HUGE smiles, greetings, friendly! All put me at ease immediately, and we began the process. Sam explained all the billing to me, and we headed into and around the house to tour all the furniture and boxes they were to load up and move away. From the first second (NOT an exaggeration), they dove in, and boxes were being moved in almost a seamless fashion. A bit over an hour later (maybe closer to an hour and a half), they were on their way. They arrived - again - all smiles, checking in with me: how was I doing? And we toured the new house and explained where everything would go. They hustled, delivering boxes and furniture to all the designated rooms. They asked questions if they were unsure. AND for me, probably one of the biggest, most helpful moments, we negotiated for them to assemble my youngest's bed. I could not have done it. They worked tirelessly (well, maybe they were tired - but their assurances and smiles belied any weariness or frustration) and assembled the most complicated bed I have ever seen! Both my child and I agreed - had it been left up to us, we probably would have abandoned it. I realize this is a long review, but I cannot say enough about Prime Movers and wish them all the success in the world. Truly - a class act - friendly, knowledgeable, hard-working, diligent, and kind. Thank you!

    The two men who arrived were very polite, moved very quickly. The job was done and they helped…read moreclean up. Highly recommend them. A fantastic value for the move. Thank you.
