Step 1:
Request A Free Estimate
Send the move date, both addresses and the floor of each unit. Within 24 hours we call back with a free estimate built on those details.
Step 2:
Moving Scheduling
We schedule your move with you. On a Boston street, the City’s one-day permit reserves two non-metered spaces, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., for $69.
Step 3:
Receive Your Moving Plan
Once the date is confirmed, we send the move details in writing. With a City permit, the signs have to be up 48 hours or more ahead of the 7 a.m. start.
A note from Edward Perkins: Harbor Moving has been my business since 2014, when it ran on a single truck. Today we pack, move and store for Boston households and offices and run interstate trips as well. Every shipment is insured. Phone +1 (978) 443-6189; our door is at 59 Church St, Dorchester, MA 02122.
