Courteous and communicative at first, then the objective fails: -Tore wires off the side of my house with truck, looked at me and said "oops." -Tore screen door, initially denied then said it was "irrelevant" and "twenty dollars to fix" -Disassembled bed frame in the yard -Stood on recycle bins and meter to reattach wires -Damaged wall and never acknowledged Edit: yes, we did speak on the day of the move and money was taken off which may have been acceptable if we weren't still discovering damage days later. I have no doubt you asked if I directly witnessed the wires coming down. Company name should be Plausible Deniability. read more

Money well spent. Had my one bedroom packed and in a truck in under thirty minutes. Moved to 3rd floor walkup in under 2 hours with two man crew. No drama. read more

Quick and easy, great pricing, excellent service and communication before, during, and after.

I run a small company that needed to move offices from Brookline to downtown. Safe Responsible Movers were great from day 1. Clear communication from start to finish, a great price, hard-working, timely, and great customer service. I highly recommend them and would use them again! read more

I have worked with Chris and his team on 4x separate occasions and can confirm this company really does live up to their name! They always take great care of my stuff, have been professional with communication and were always polite to any neighbors or other people around during the moves we did. If you want peace of mind when working with a moving company these guys are a great value service at a reasonable price. I would 100% use them again and highly recommend SRM to anyone concerned with the quality of a moving company. read more

They were quick and efficient. The move was incredibly fast but they got everything in the right places and were respectful and kind throughout the process. The hourly rate was a tiny bit on the higher end of what I saw when shopping around, but well worth it for what they include and how efficient they were. read more

The movers did a great job moving my furniture for a reasonable price. They were on time, professional and polite. I will definitely recommend this business. read more

I've used various moving companies over the last 20 years or so, and I can say without a doubt that Safe Responsible Movers are head and shoulders above the rest. Their flexibility with the date of my move was very welcome as was the great communication from both Chris and James. The movers showed up exactly when they said they would...and, to my surprise, there was a 4th person added even though my move wasn't very big. All 4 guys were really nice, personable, and about their business. What I thought was going to be at least a 5 hour move was completely finished in less than 3 hours! The rate was extremely fair. I was expecting to pay at least $300 more than what the final amount came to. I can't say enough about Safe Responsible Movers. They made my move much less stressful. Thank you! read more

Mindblowingly great movers. I had a three-man team help me move a one bedroom apartment, and the whole thing took less than 3 hours, including driving in rush hour traffic on a Friday. Obviously everyone's situation is different depending on how much stuff you have, but these guys are hustling the entire time, and know how to be extremely efficient with their load/unload process. They were also friendly, asked questions instead of making assumptions, and offered many times to relocate heavy items for me after we made it to our final destination. And of course, everyone was COVID-safe and had masks on. Booking them is also a snap: their website is super thorough, and they communicate with you multiple times before the move, so that you don't have to worry about having any miscommunications or being forgotten. On the day of the move, I was updated multiple times about their ETA. I would hire this crew again in a heartbeat! read more

We had AMAZING movers from this company. It took 2 hours and 45 mins for them to load us in Boston, drive to Manchester by the Sea (45 min), and unload us in Manchester! I thought it would take twice as long/cost twice as much. They were hustling. They were also professional, careful, and accommodating. There were a few remaining items we had run out of packing materials for (e.g. mirrors) and they carefully wrapped and moved them. Moving can be SO stressful, but these guys arrived 10 minutes early, worked professionally, carefully, and beyond efficiently, and it was a very fair price. [Reminder to tip big if you can, especially during these times.] One month after our move, we still keep thinking this was some of the best money we've spent in a long time. Good luck with your move! read more

I had an excellent experience with Safe Responsible Movers on 8/15/2021. Chris, Aaron and Aaron pulled up right on time and worked together quickly and efficiently. They wrapped important things like my couch and stereo speakers in plastic so they wouldn't get scuffed. Not a single item was dinged during the entire move. I'd heard great things about them from my friends, and they were right. I'd absolutely use them again. read more

Safe Responsible Movers - A yellow moving truck with a loading ramp is positioned in a narrow driveway between two buildings with siding. The truck has services listed on its side, including residential and commercial moving, loading, furniture delivery, packing, and insurance. Overhead, multiple power lines cross the sky, which is mostly clear with some clouds. Shadows from the power lines and buildings are cast on the driveway surface, and a few vehicles are visible in the background. - Movers Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

From my first inquiry up to the day of the move I felt confident with them. I'm a senior person with no family and had to pack and move a 1-BR apartment, so this was daunting. But Chris and James were awesome, they're the only moving company I scouted that were detailed. The company is clear with their charges, "no surprises", they were on time, fast and efficient. I like the fact that Chris made some suggestions and advice that was helpful to me. Everything went smoothly, all my items were safe and intact. Honest business and I highly, highly recommend Safe Responsible Movers. read more

I hired these people based on good reviews, and honestly it was not great. I would not recommend. They manhandled my stuff, scraped my new hardwood floors, and broke a few items. Quite a few things were scratched that weren't scratched, and they used my bathroom without asking at my new place. The people are nice enough, but if you value your stuff not being treated roughly, don't use. read more

Chris and his crew were responsive, quick, professional and offered a very fair price. I really appreciate Chris working with us on the logistics and price. They were fantastic and I highly recommend them. read more

I've moved with these guys three times, and each time has been absolutely excellent. They are extremely diligent each step of the way, sending incredible amounts of useful information beginning with as you request a move leading all the way up to the days before your move. I appreciated their flexibility w/r/t scheduling this most recent time as well. And of course the movers themselves are super professional, efficient, and friendly. I'll be reaching out to them for my next move, whenever it may be, and you should too! read more

Our movers were friendly, efficient and punctual. They did an excellent job with moving our belongings even with 2 stops. They packed our storage perfectly. The price was a bit on the higher end but lower than most competitors during a prime moving week and totally worth it! Will definitely use again. read more

I rarely write reviews but I had to say how great Safe Responsible Movers were during our move. They arrived on time and did quick work. Unfortunately, the truck that they had gotten wouldn't fit all of our stuff. Our items were bulkier than they anticipated and we had some large wardrobe boxes. So they had to call in a backup crew that was close by. The owner Chris was with this crew and they took the remaining items in their truck. They made the whole process as easy as possible and charged very reasonably for the extra work they had to put in. They were professional and courteous and made us feel very comfortable throughout the process. I would absolutely highly recommend Safe Responsible Movers and would hire them again in a heartbeat. read more

Safe Responsible Movers did a recent apartment move for me in Boston. They were amazing-worked quickly, very professional-all of our furniture was properly protected, all items placed in the new apartment quickly and efficiently. The price we were charged was the low end of their quote-I would highly recommend them. read more

Fantastic! This is my second time using Safe Responsible Movers and both times have been wonderful. Our trio of movers got us completely moved in 2.5 hours. They showed up a few minutes early and got to work right away. They were efficient and handled our belongings with care. We did not have an easy move as both places had multiple flights of stairs and it was a SUPER hot/humid day. The team handled it all in stride and were professional. Booking is a super easy online process, they are extremely responsive and confirm everything via email. read more

These guys are great! Used them twice in the past two years. They show up on time, are incredibly efficient and careful with your belongings. I have no hesitation in recommending them. The booking process is easy - you fill out a form to tell them how much stuff you have and how big your current space is (that helps them determine how big a truck their crew will need). Then you agree on a date via email. It took 4.5-5 hours for our 3-bed apartment. Rates are competitive for the area and it's a good value when you think about the process of renting a truck and the exhaustion from moving your own stuff. We hadn't used movers before and thought it seemed like a pretty chunk of change but it is worth every single penny. read more

Have used safe responsible movers for 2 moves now and would highly recommend them. Both times they were fast, friendly, and treated our stuff carefully. Communication throughout was prompt and definitely lowered the stress levels for what is a very stressful activity! read more

Can't recommend these guys enough. 3 of them showed up early (after they called), got right to work, made extremely quick work of our ~500 sq foot apartment (I think to get it all in the truck was just over an hour), and got the move completely done in 2.5 hours without nary a complaint or comment. They were attentive to where things needed to go, sensitive to what needed to be treated carefully (they broke down a table to wrap it up in their movers blankets and then set it back up at the end), and very communicative (asked if it were OK for them to stop at Dunkies between places and let us know we wouldn't be charged for that time). There was very little casualty, everything important made it intact (just a broken cup or two probably due to the way I packed it, and a new small ding in my massive old wardrobe that already had a bunch of dings in it from prior moves). Rates are extremely fair and competitive- and it's worth it to pony up to have them pull parking permits-, and honestly IMO there's nothing they could have done to do a better job. Worth every penny- don't hesitate to use them for all of your moving needs. read more

I don't want to move again for a very long time but I would definitely hire these movers in a second! They were quick, kind and very strategic. We moved from Waltham to Westborough and it took just about 3 hours total. Amazing! read more

We recently used Safe Responsible Movers to move out of my daughter's one bedroom apartment in Framingham, MA to Waltham, about a 25 minute drive. There were about 30 boxes to move plus living room and bedroom furniture. I have never seen three people move so quickly and efficiently. The furniture was wrapped and fragile like TV screens were blanketed. The three young men took one hour and a half to pack everything and including transportation time an hour an a half to unload the stuff and place it where we wanted it. The price was very reasonable. Safe Responsible Movers are the people to go with. The young owner has been in the business for 12 years and he and his team are the best. read more

Great experience from booking all the way to the move! The guys that moved us were quick but also careful. We've recommended them to other friends! read more

I've moved with Safe Responsible Movers twice now, between a multi story home, apartment, and storage. Excellent experience start to finish. They were prompt to reply to scheduling emails, showed up on time, moved things quickly but carefully, and were nice and easy to work with. They also handled fragile items like computer and sports equipment with ease. read more

I really wish we weren't so frazzled on the day of the move so I could remember the names of all the guys on our crew. I have moved probably about 10 times in the last 20 years and this crew was the absolute best - and in a pandemic, even. We are moving internationally which made the move more difficult, more complicated, and more stressful. The crew leader showed up with the instructions from our international move coordinator in-hand, having already read them thoroughly. He also tessellated our stuff so perfectly that we were under by 2 whole feet in the truck. A number of times they went above and beyond - like moving things around the house that weren't going on the truck, coming back to add one more item we forgot (which entailed pulling down the ratcheting and wall and everything. And with a smile - and no extra fees! Add to this that they also coordinated taking some of our furniture to a friend in Arlington in addition to loading the truck. They kept masks on (properly!) at all times and couldn't have been kinder, or more empathetic throughout the process. Not to mention super efficient and diligent. And the price! This was BY FAR the best value for the dollar I've ever spent on movers. Ever. I can't recommend them enough. read more

The crew sent to move our stuff was awesome. They have placed all the boxes and furniture as directed with care. I would definitely recommend them. James, you and your crew are awesome. read more

I moved units within my building, which is a fairy easy move. However, I have some bigger pieces of expensive, heavy furniture that my friends and I are definitely not strong enough to move safely. Also, a lot of the pieces required un-assembling to move. I hired these guys for $50/hr plus a $25 travel fee (cheap!). Chris was really quick to respond over email and schedule me (love, since I hate phones). Because of the blizzard, their moving schedule got a little messed up and they moved me back later in the day (asking me for permission first). When they finally got here, I have to admit that I got a bit worried because they were 2 fairly skinny hipsterish-looking guys with 2 tiny dollies. However, once in my apartment, they took off running. (I even texted my mom after 20 minutes and said, "whoa! the movers are speed demons!") They finished the entire move quickly and easily, and even humored me when I had no idea where to put the furniture. I asked them to move things around and their opinions on the various arrangements- they didn't seem to mind at all. They were incredibly friendly, incredibly efficient, and incredibly strong. They were optimistic the whole time and I never heard them complain once. They were also quite thoughtful- at one point, Chris asked the other guy to help him unload something a certain way and actually said, "I don't want to scratch the floor". Overall, they impressed me so much that I gave them a bigger tip than I had planned. Next time I move apartments, I am definitely calling these guys. Not only are they a great price and super friendly, but they were the most efficient movers I've ever seen. read more

I wanted to write an update. These guys are still just as great, kind, efficient, and professional as they were two years ago when I previously needed their help in a move. It's honestly worth the money to have them help acquire a parking permit (should it be in one of the areas they advise/offer to help in getting one). My new address happened to be in one of those areas and it was a relief to worry about one less thing during the stressful packing/movie period. The rates are still the best I could find, especially for the care and attention received during the move. All questions were answered in a very clear manner, and they patiently helped me go through my list of concerns regarding the move when I called them. They plan to arrive within a specific time block, and call ahead of time to keep you informed of any delays. The day of my move they had another client scheduled earlier that morning. They realized the move was going to take a bit longer than anticipated, and were quick to call me & give me a heads-up. They weren't late by any means, they just happened to arrive closer to the middle of the time block (of arrival) they'd given me - which was fine! They come prepared to help wrap furniture as needed, so there shouldn't be any concerns there. They are experts at maneuvering large/heavy furniture down multiple flights of stairs or a strangely built hallway corner. I was a bit worried about two items mainly based on how heavy they are. These guys wrapped the furniture, made sure to handle each item with care, adapted their plans as needed, and moved everything very efficiently. This is probably obvious to say - the company also encourages it - but if you can be as prepared as possible on your moving day (everything that can be in boxes are prepped), the move itself goes quite quickly. My first move was across town and took about 2 hours total. This recent move was just to the next town over and literally took less than 90 minutes from start to finish. Unpacking, of course, took a bit longer - but that was to be expected with any sort of move. Once at the new address, they unload everything into the rooms you've requested. On my moving day it was particularly hot, and they made sure to help me install my window AC unit before doing anything else. (I had mentioned it at the start of them loading everything at my old address, and they kept every request or concern in mind - without any reminders - as they unloaded everything into the new space.) I cannot stress enough how great these guys are. This company is fantastic and truly live up to their name. read more

Although I read Yelp reviews, I've never commented on any service until now. I can't let the opportunity go by without strongly recommending Safe Responsible Movers, because they're simply the best! Both times I've used them, their quote was fair and accurate (no hidden charges) and their employees are always polite, respectful, attentive and unbelievably efficient. There's no slacking off! All email correspondence was handled promptly, starting with the initial quote. I will absolutely use them in the future and highly recommend you do too. I read more

BUYER BEWARE!! Arrogant young man on phone. Refused to give me a quote over the phone kept insisting I go fill out the form online told him I'm older I like to do things over the phone I realize it's only a quote. He must've been sued before or something because he refused to get a quote over the phone. He told me if I didn't like the way they do business I should go elsewhere. Glad to see you're not hungry right now dear that you can turn away business and be rude to people but don't forget what goes up always comes down. read more

Efficient and polite workers. They made my move stress free and were careful not to damage any items. Highly recommend!

Safe Responsible Movers are highly responsive, professional, efficient, trustworthy and do an excellent job of moving items, including large items. Their prices are highly competitive. I highly recommend this company!! read more

SRM moved a very heavy piece of exercise equipment for me, from one house to another. From the beginning, and throughout the process, they were very easy to communicate with. Pick up was on time, and they were very careful moving the equipment we were moving. Arrived on time at the destination, and with similar care placed the equipment where we'd indicated. Friendly and hard-working team did a great job. Thanks! read more

Look no further, you have found your movers! Today we had an incredible experience with our moving crew. When we moved into our apartment, it took about 4 hours to move in and our couch required us to pay for an extra guy. Not only was this team EARLY, they did not sweat a bit on taking apart our couch. These guys move SO quick. We were into our new home in 2 1/2 hours. Truly incredible. I would highly recommend you go with Safe Responsible Movers to give you moving day peace of mind! :) read more

I received a mailing from them after I put my condo on the market. I'm usually pretty leery of people who use direct marketing but after reading their Yelp reviews I decided to hire them for my recent move. I'm really glad I hired them and recommend them. They moved the contents of 3 storage units (two 5X10 units and one 5X15 unit--that wasn't all the way full) to my new 4-level home about 30 minutes away. Pat, Eric, and Aaron showed up exactly on time at the storage facility and were very efficient. They took good care of my stuff. They were willing to put my belongings anywhere I requested but because I had not marked my bins and boxes very well it was hard for me to accurately direct them in my home. Also, I wasn't sure exactly where I wanted my furniture to go so I just had them put everything in random places. This was all my fault and not theirs. I wish I had been better organized so that they could have put things in the appropriate places. I asked them to move a very long couch up to the top floor and they tried really hard but it wouldn't fit up the stairway. There were about 4 marks from the couch on the walls and door frame from the attempt; Eric offered to take a picture and send someone to do touch-up work but I had a handyman coming so declined. It was really my fault for asking them to attempt to move such a large couch up two stairwells, and there wasn't anything beyond damage that can be painted. They were quick, efficient, friendly and helpful. I enjoyed working with them and would hire them again. The overall price was very reasonable; I also gave them a generous tip in cash. I would use this company again and suggest that you believe the Yelp reviews because the whole process was fairly seamless. read more

Can't say enough about the amazing job these guys did for us today. They were fast, thorough, careful, and communicative. I couldn't have asked for a better moving experience - highly recommend. read more

I've used Safe Responsible Movers twice now, and I'm so pleased with their service. The movers are professional, friendly, and are careful with delicate items. They work very quickly and their skills at maneuvering furniture around weird corners or small spaces are pretty impressive. I really appreciate their flat fee for travel and their fees are perfectly reasonable even on the 1st of the month. During my first move, my TV broke in transit despite thorough wrapping/packing. So I called them up, showed them the damage, and they replaced my TV with the exact same model within the week. During my second move, everything went perfectly. I hope I never have to move again (such a pain) but I'll certainly be recommending SRM to my friends. read more

This is the best moving company ever. They give accurate quotes, show up on time, treat your items with care and respect. We used them for six different moves and every time they have done a perfect job. Moving is hard, but with Safe Responsible Movers it is a little easier. read more
