Review Analysis

Moving with Fitton Moving & Storage Inc means dealing with a team widely praised for professionalism, efficiency, and friendly service. Of 49 customer feedback analyzed, over 71% were positive, reflecting well-trained, cautious movers who regularly deliver careful handling and affordable rates. Many noted the movers’ willingness to help, attentiveness, and ability to meet or beat estimated costs compared to more expensive competitors. Friendly staff members and the ability to accommodate last-minute changes stand out as particular strengths. In contrast, negative feedback accounts for about a quarter of the total. The top grievances involve damaged belongings, much higher-than-promised costs, and rude or unresponsive staff—especially regarding claim resolution and communication breakdowns. Fitton scores well above the typical industry rate for positive feedback, yet faces recurring complaints similar to other moving and storage companies, especially with billing transparency and handling disputes. For most, careful and pleasant movers define the experience, but a few report significant dissatisfaction with damage and billing practices.

FAQs

What else should you know about moving out of state?

A moving company helping you move out of Massachusetts must be properly licensed and have a U.S. Department of Transportation number. Of course, all the Leominster movers we’ve included on this list have everything in order, but you can check for yourself on the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s database.

If you’re moving from one state to another, you’ll want to familiarize yourself with the Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move document from the FMCSA.

Should I use a local company or a national company when moving from Leominster?

If you’re moving across town, a local moving company in Leominster is going to be the most cost-effective approach. If you’re moving out of Massachusetts, using a national moving company like Safeway Moving comes with more experience, which may cost a bit more.

When is the cheapest time of year to move away from Leominster?

Moving companies in Leominster are usually slower in November and December due to the holidays and kids being in school, so you can negotiate with a mover more during those months and save some money.

What are the cheapest ways to move out of Leominster?

DIY moving will always be cheaper, especially when moving within 50 miles of Leominster. The cheapest options for moving out of Leominster are usually renting a moving truck like U-Haul or a moving container like PODS. We’ve also got a helpful guide if you’re looking for the cheapest ways to move out of state.
