Moving from Massachusetts
 

We will be moving to TV in early December and I am getting estimates from long distance movers. For those from the Boston area, we've used Gentle Giant before for a local move and they were very good. However, that was over 8 years ago and I'm not getting a warm and fuzzy feeling about them for this long distance move. We have Clark & Reid coming to give us an estimate on Friday, but I would like to get a couple more quotes.

For anyone who moved from the Boston, or central MA area, did you have a great mover? If so, I would love to hear who it was.

Thanks.

We moved here from Massachusetts but we didn't use a mover. We used a POD. Wanted to say welcome to TV.

I can remember packing up my father and his wife for their move from Worcester to The Villages. He purchased a new villa in Poincianna and along with it he purchased new furniture, linens, pots, pans and decorations. We agreed that our "northern" style of furniture would not go in the new house. He was able to downsize so much that a couple of car loads of belongings was all they needed. I later shipped some personal belongings to them.

We used upack & loved them.

We used Suddath Movers. They are the only one that we found that is right in The Villages. We needed to put our stuff into storage for one month. They were very easy to work with, and our move, then storage, then delivery all went well.

I moved my self from Ma. All the furniture that fit in up north, just isn't florida. Have a Garage sale, and buy new here, you won't regret it.

Same here..welcome to Red Sox Nation south. :wave:

Got quotes from several, ended up with PODS. from Worcester to TV.

We used 1-800-PackRat. They are like a POD but less expensive. We came from Cape Cod. 16ft of space in the unit. We hired men here to unload for us. Worked out great.

Congrats on the move and GO SOX!!!!

Please do not use Father and Son. We found them in a Springfield, MA phone book. We got several quotes and they were all in the same range. We went with them because they could get our furniture to FLorida when we needed it there. That didn't happen. It was an extremely stressful situation for us. The owners have numerous moving companies under different names. We hired an attorney to help us with a case against them but sadly she died. Good luck with your journey.

Moving from MA
 

We used "Isaac's Moving and Storage" to move from Walpole, MA to the Villages in 2011. They did a complete pack and nothing was damaged and we were very pleased with the overall service and their price was as reasonable as the others that we obtained estimates from.

Thanks for all the replies and the welcomes to TV. We are getting rid of a lot of furniture, but not everything, so we will definitely need a mover.

YEAH SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope you get out of there, before a snowfall hits. :22yikes:

Trust me...... so do I!!!!!
