"Our movers were timely, professional and beyond helpful with our move! They went above and beyond to get us into our new place. I would 100% use East Coast again and can’t stress enough how fair their price point was in comparison to some of the insane quotes I got. They are the best!"
Neutral East Coast Boston Movers Reviews
"Expect a lot of small extra charges that really add up ($250+ in our case): extra travel time that's hard to dispute, credit card fees, extra tape and plastic wrap that seems unnecessary (36 rolls of tape x $3/roll), big boxes for lamps and speakers (?), and fuel. The crew are professional, quick, courteous, and careful."
