TERRY TOOK A LONG TIME TO GIVE ME TIPS ON HIRING A MOVING COMPANY, AND EVEN OFFERED TO ANSWER ANY QUESTION I HAVE IN THE FUTURE. AND THIS IS AFTER SHE TOLD ME SMOOTH MOVES WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO MOVE US. SHE WENT WAY BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY, AND I FELT I HAD TO REPORT IT.
Description of Work: CALLED FOR A QUOTE FOR AN OUT OF STATE MOVE. SPOKE WITH TERRY WHO REFERRED ME TO TWO OTHER COMPANIES THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO HELP.

CHRIS AND HIS CREW (3 GUYS TOTAL) WERE GREAT. VERY ENTHUSIASTIC, POLITE, AND PROFESSIONAL. THEY WERE APPRECIATIVE FOR EVERYTHING -- WE ORDERED THEM SOME PIZZA FOR LUNCH AND THEY THANKED US PROFUSELY. WE WEREN'T QUITE AS READY AS WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN, AND THEY JUMPED RIGHT IN TO HELP OUT WITH PACKING UP SOME LAST-MINUTE BOXES, ETC. THEY BROKE DOWN THE DINING ROOM TABLE AND THINGS LIKE THE FOOSBALL TABLE. THEY EVEN MOVED A VESTIGE OF A TREE TRUNK THAT THE PLUMBER HAD LEFT BEHIND (CERTAINLY NOT IN THE JOB DESCRIPTION). THEY WERE VERY CAREFUL WITH THE MORE FRAGILE PIECES AND WERE GREAT ABOUT NEGOTIATING TIGHT SPACES. BEFORE LEAVING THE NEW HOUSE, THEY MADE SURE THAT EVERYTHING WAS WHERE WE WANTED IT TO BE. THEIR QUOTE, WHICH WAS AMONG THE LOWEST, WAS RIGHT ON. I CAN'T IMAGINE A BETTER MOVING EXPERIENCE. I WOULD DEFINITELY USE THEM AGAIN, AND ENTHUSIASTICALLY RECOMMEND THEM TO FRIENDS.
Description of Work: MOVING CONTENTS OF 3BR HOUSE FROM WALTHAM TO MARBLEHEAD. IT WAS ONE TRUCKLOAD OF STUFF, WITH FURNITURE (BUT NO REFRIGERATOR OR WASHER AND DRYER). THEY QUOTED AROUND $120 HOUR (3 GUYS). THEY WERE RIGHT ON WITH THE QUOTE.

REESE CAME TO VIEW MY HOUSE AND GIVE ME A QUOTE ON THE PACK AND MOVE. IT WAS THE LOWEST BINDING QUOTE I RECEIVED (THOUGH ALL 5 PLACES I CONTACTED GAVE SIMILAR PRICE RANGES), AND IN FACT THEY CAME IN A BIT UNDER THE MAX. THE TEAM WAS QUICK, EFFICIENT, AND TREATED MY POSSESSIONS VERY WELL. THEY WERE ALSO FRIENDLY AND DID NOT MIND THAT MY CURIOUS 2-YEAR-OLD WAS SOMETIMES IN THE WAY. I WOULD CERTAINLY RECOMMEND THEM WITHOUT RESERVATION.
Description of Work: PACK AND MOVE A 4-BEDROOM HOUSE TO ANOTHER 4-BEDROOM HOUSE, BOTH ON 3 FLOORS. PACKING WAS ON THE FIRST DAY, MOVING WAS ON THE SECOND DAY.

THEY DID A TERRIFIC JOB MOVING ME DESPITE A FOOT OF FRESH SNOW. I WAS HALF EXPECTING THEM TO CANCEL BECAUSE OF THE CONDITIONS, BUT THEY HAVE A REAL CAN-DO ATTITUDE. THEY GOT THE TRUCK IN BOTH PLACES DESPITE SNOWED-IN CARS, ETC. THEY WERE ALSO VERY GENTLE WITH MY THINGS, NOTHING BROKEN OR DAMAGED. I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM HIGHLY.
Description of Work: MOVED MY STUFF FROM A ONE BEDROOM CONDO IN THE FENWAY TO A HOUSE IN ROSLINDALE.

CHRIS, REESE, AND CREW DID A VERY NICE JOB FOR US. OUR MOVE, WHICH INVOLVED MANY BOXES OF BOOKS AND FILES AND FILING CABINETS AND COMPUTER EQUIPMENT, AS WELL AS A MODERATE AMOUNT OF FURNITURE AND HOUSEHOLD BELONGINGS, WAS DIFFICULT, BUT THEY WERE COURTEOUS AND PROFESSIONAL. I WAS ESPECIALLY IMPRESSED BY THEIR CREATIVITY IN GETTING THINGS INTO THE HOUSE AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE (IE, USING A BASEMENT WINDOW RATHER THAN WALKING AROUND THE HOUSE TO THE BACK DOOR). ALL OF THEM WORKED VERY HARD THROUGHOUT THE MOVE, WHICH TOOK LONGER THAN ANTICIPATED BECAUSE WE WERE NOT COMPLETELY READY TO GO ON MOVING DAY.

THESE YOUNG MEN SEEMED TO BE STARTING OUT IN BUSINESS AND WERE EAGER TO PLEASE. THEIR RECEPTIONIST WAS FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL. I CHOSE SMOOTH MOOVES BECAUSE THEY CAME IN WITH THE LOWEST PRICE (OTHER COMPANIES I CALLED ALSO HAD SURCHARGE PER ITEM). THEY ARRIVED ON TIME, ALL-SMILES. DID THE WORK I ASKED THEM TO DO. WERE POLITE AND EFFICIENT. WOULD HIRE THEM AGAIN.
Description of Work: NEEDED TO HAVE A STOVE REMOVED FROM MY CAR AND CARRIED UPSTAIRS INTO VICTORIAN HOUSE VIA RICKETY BACK STAIRS. ALSO NEEDED TO HAVE A CHEST CARRIED UP FROM BASEMENT TO FIRST FLOOR, AND ANOTHER REMOVED FROM FIRST FLOOR.

VERY PLEASANT ON THE PHONE AND SET UP THE MOVE IMMEDIATELY. THIS WAS A PAPERWORK-FREE MOVE. MOVERS (2) WERE VERY PLEASANT AND PROFESSIONAL AND WORKED VERY QUICKLY, A LITTLE CASUAL WITH THE FURNITURE BUT NOTHING WAS HURT. I WOULD DEFINITELY HIRE AGAIN.

CAN'T SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT SMOOTH MOOVES. I CALLED THEM ON SHORT NOTICE AND THEY WERE VERY ACCOMMODATING. ARRIVED RIGHT WHEN THEY SAID THEY WOULD. WORKED VERY HARD TO MOVE US QUICKLY, YET WERE VERY CAREFUL WITH OUR BELONGINGS. MOVED US MUCH FASTER THAN WE EXPECTED (ESPECIALLY BASED ON OUR PRIOR MOVES). PRICES WERE MUCH MORE REASONABLE THAN OTHER COMPANIES WE CALLED, ESPECIALLY SINCE WE WERE MOVING THE LAST WEEK OF THE MONTH. VERY FRIENDLY, CONFIRMED EVERYTHING THE DAY BEFORE MOVE. I CAN'T IMAGINE HAVING A BETTER MOVING EXPERIENCE THAN THIS!!
Description of Work: MOVED FROM 2+ BEDROOM DUPLEX IN SOUTH END, TO A 3+ TRIPLEX IN SOUTH END.

ANYWAY, THEY WERE TENACIOUS AND CAREFUL. I DID HAVE A SMALL AMOUNT OF DAMAGE, BUT I DON'T THINK IT WAS AVOIDABLE.
Description of Work: WE NEEDED TO MOVE AN ANTIQUE BOOKCASE FROM THE 1ST FL UPSTAIRS. SPOKE TO CHRIS ON THE PHONE AND 24 HRS LATER HE ARRIVED WITH CURTIS. THEY WORKED VERY HARD FOR OVER AN HOUR, TRYING EVERY ANGLE AT TRYING TO PLACE THE BOOKCASE WHERE I WANTED IT, BUT IT DIDN'T WORK. CEILING WAS JUST TOO LOW FOR THE PIECE TO BE TURNED.

SMOOTH MOOVES IS A SMALL BUT PROFESSIONAL MOVING COMPANY. THE OWNERS, CHRIS AND REESE ANSWERED EACH OF MY CALLS, AND WERE PROMPT AND RESPONSIVE EVEN DURING THE AUGUST MOVING SEASON. THE CREW WAS YOUNG, INTELLIGENT AND CAREFUL - NOT ALWAYS CHARACTERISTICS THAT GO TOGETHER. THEY WERE WELL SUPERVISED BY CHRIS AND HANDLED THE OCCASIONAL SNAGS THAT ACCOMPANY ANY MOVE VERY WELL. [ANOTHER COMPANY] CALLED ME BACK WITH A LAST MINUTE ATTEMPT TO MEET SMOOTH MOOVES PRICE, BUT SINCE I'D PROMISED THE BUSINESS TO SMOOTH MOOVES, I DECLINED AND HAD NO REASON TO REGRET THE DECISION. WHILE MY BELONGINGS ARE NOT FANCY, I DID HAVE SEVERAL ITEMS OF ARTWORK AND A FEW ANTIQUES AND WHEN I POINTED THESE OUT, THEY PAID CAREFUL ATTENTION TO GIVING THEM REASONABLE HANDLING.
Description of Work: A TWO PART MOVE - APARTMENT TO STORAGE FACILITY, THEN FROM THE FACILITY TO A NEW RESIDENCE SEVERAL WEEKS LATER.
