Wilmington, MA Movers

Two movers and a truck: $159 to $199 per hour, 3 hours minimum.

Two movers and a truck from our Woburn office cost $159 to $199 per hour in Wilmington, the low end on a quiet date. A third mover starts the rate at $199, a fourth at $239. Every move books 3 hours at least, then 15-minute steps, plus the $50 equipment charge once. A 3-bedroom Wilmington house usually takes three movers 7 to 9 hours; the table of example moves above shows the totals.

Our rate follows demand. Calm weekdays sit at the low end of the range, from $159 an hour for two movers, and the dates everyone wants, such as June weekends and moves at month's end, climb toward $199. Two Wilmington details can help you pick: set the date in your recycling week, so the flattened boxes go out with the barrel, and avoid a holiday week, when pickups run a day late. From December to April, keep a snow date in mind too.

With us, the hourly rate covers the crew, the truck, fuel and tolls. On top come the $50 equipment charge once per move, the time past the 3-hour minimum in 15-minute steps, and only what you ask for: packing labor and boxes, Full Value Protection or a hoist. Stairs add time, never a fee. One Wilmington cost is outside our bill: if your truck spot needs a Road Opening Permit and the town asks for a police detail, the permit holder pays for it.

Yes. Our crews do not load flammable liquids or explosives, so gasoline, paint thinner, propane cylinders and fireworks stay at the old house. In Wilmington, used motor oil up to 5 gallons can go to the DPW Garage on a weekday, and other household chemicals wait for the town's hazardous waste day, usually in early May. An old fridge we can move, but if it stays, Casella takes it by paid appointment, doors removed.

Wilmington's by-law asks for a Road Opening Permit when a truck, container or dumpster would block a public street, and the town can require a police detail with it. A truck that loads in your driveway does not block the street. From December 1 to April 1 nothing may stay on the street from 1 a.m. to 6 a.m., and in a snowstorm anything in a plow's way is towed, so plan where the truck stands before you book the date.

Two things, both on the seller's side. Call the Fire Department for the 26F smoke and carbon monoxide inspection, held only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and call the Billing Office at least 7 days before closing for the final water reading. Book both before you pick a moving date with us.

Yes. A move into New Hampshire crosses a state line, so it runs under our federal numbers, USDOT 3212621 and MC 1018431, instead of our Massachusetts license, MA DPU 31854. Salem is about 16 miles away, so it is a local move: the same crews, billed by the hour at $159 to $199 for two movers, with the 3-hour minimum. Flat rates are for long-distance moves.
