LOCAL MOVES

Move Time starts once movers arrive at your origin address and ends when movers finish unloading at the destination address. Job Time = Move Time + Travel Time. Travel Time – time added to Move Time in order to compensate for time spent traveling from our terminal to the shipper’s point of origin, and the return trip from the destination to the terminal. 30 minutes minimum of Travel Time is applied to all jobs in the Greater Boston area.

Making a request – to book a move with Boston Best Rate Movers please follow these steps:
Step 1: get a quick estimate on our website. This step takes less than 30 seconds and gets you in our system, while providing you with an estimate, based on the database average for generally similar moves.
Step 2: Submit a completed request, so that we can provide you with a more accurate estimate and check our availability for your move. We strive to send out all estimates within 24 hours. Please expect an additional day for all weekend requests. Once we update your information, and if the day is available.
Step 3: You will now have the option to confirm your request. To book a move with Boston Best Rate Movers you should make a one (1) hour deposit and receive a confirmation email from our office. This email is important because it’s proof of your reservation with us and also provides you with some very important information regarding your move and Boston Best Rate Movers policies.

What does your move start time mean? If you have scheduled a morning appointment arrival time sometime between 8 am to 10 am then you’re moving crew should arrive at the scheduled time (most times they are a few minutes early). If your move is scheduled for a late morning or an afternoon time slot then we have provided you with an estimated 3-4 hour window for your start time. However, due to the fact that the crew will be coming after an earlier move this estimated time is subject to change. Once the crew finishes their first job(s) and gets back to our terminal, we will call to let you know a more precise arrival time. We do not expect you to sit around waiting for your movers for hours, but we do ask that you please remain flexible on your move day. If it becomes evident that your crew is running late for the day Boston Best Rate Movers will call to let you know. The most common reason for a delay is incorrect or incomplete information provided by a customer. This is why your confirmation email asks that you double-check your inventory list and let us know if there are any changes at least twenty-four (24) hours before your move. We also need to know if any item(s) require significant disassembly. If the movers show up to a move and find that they are now being asked to move 4 extra pieces of furniture and 15 additional boxes then they will finish their move later than anticipated. If a wall unit has dozens of pieces of hardware and requires 40 minutes of disassembly then the movers will be behind schedule. Every extra item or service takes time, and while we are happy to assist you with whatever you need we do ask that you provide us with that information beforehand to avoid inconveniencing other customers

Payment methods – For local moves, you must pay in full on the day of your job by cash or VISA/MC/DISCOVER/ /AMEX.

We charge the same hourly rate for a labor-only move, as our regular moves. Even though you do not need a truck for your service, we usually send one anyway. The truck is not only the source of transportation for our team to get to your address. It is fully equipped with all the necessary tools and equipment that movers might need to make service on a professional level and without any troubles. On the truck, guys have all sizes of boxes, tape, shrink-wrap, mattress bags, ratchet straps, dollies, ramps, and of course, all the necessary tools, required for the disassembly of any furniture. It is obvious, that the move goes more efficiently time-wise with the right equipment, not to mention, that sometimes it is impossible to provide the service without the right gadget and tools.

We can provide all of the moving labor necessary to load and unload your moving truck or POD. Whether you rent a U-Haul, Penske, Ryder, Enterprise, or Budget, you can enjoy a professional move without the price… and the strain! Boston Best Rate Movers will meet you and load and/or unload your truck! This service is also available for ABF, U-Pack trailers, Door-To-Door, and PODS storage containers.
