We share a pre-move checklist, packing options, and arrival ETA so you know exactly what to expect when the Move & Care team arrives.

F.A.Q.

In most cases, we can accommodate a same-day move. As soon as you call, we start the process. We’ve had movers arrive at a client’s Boston apartment within 2 hours of their call. Availability can vary depending on the time of day, but we prioritize last-minute requests – meaning we will do everything possible to get a moving crew to you the day you reach out. Early morning call? We’ll aim for late morning/afternoon. Afternoon call? We may still be able to move you by evening.

Yes, tipping movers is commonplace in the U.S. moving industry. Approximately 10% of the total cost of the move. Urgent moves always mean an unexpected, unplanned load for the movers, so tipping is highly expected in this situation. Remember, though: the ultimate decision about tipping rests on your satisfaction with the service and capabilities. Learn more about how much to tip movers in Boston in our article.

No – we don’t believe in upcharging customers just because a move is short notice. Our pricing is the same for last-minute local moves as it is for any scheduled move. You’ll pay our standard hourly rate for the truck and movers if it's a local move, or flat rate if it's a long distance move, plus additional services or any materials you might need (boxes, etc.), just like any other job. We provide a firm quote upfront so you know exactly what the cost will be. However, the price may be higher than high occupancy on moving day! Learn more about cost of movers in Boston in our article or read more about Move & Care pricing.

Whether you’re in a downtown neighborhood like Back Bay or Beacon Hill, or in a surrounding city such as Cambridge, Somerville, Brookline, Quincy, or Newton, we’ve got you covered.
