Moving in Cambridge
September 1 is the single busiest moving day in Boston, when a large share of leases turn over at once. Book months ahead for that window, and expect street-permit requirements in Boston, Cambridge and Somerville. Scheduling in Cambridge is easier than in the state's largest city, and that is worth knowing if your dates are not flexible. The closest market we also cover is Boston, 0 miles out. The nearest large market outside Massachusetts is Providence, RI, about 50 miles and 1 day away.
Nothing about a Cambridge job goes out to a bidder. The estimate, the crew and the truck all come from the same company, which is the whole reason to call a carrier instead of a broker.

Moving in Cambridge: common questions
Which Cambridge ZIP codes do you cover?
02138, 02139, 02140, 02141, 02142, 02238, 02239. An address on the edge of the city limits changes nothing about the price — it only matters for whether a full-size truck can reach the door.
How long does a move from Cambridge take?
Local jobs load and unload the same day. Further out: Worcester, MA — 40 mi, 1 day; Providence, RI — 50 mi, 1 day; Springfield, MA — 90 mi, 1 day. Past roughly 400 miles it becomes a long-haul schedule, and delivery is a window rather than a fixed hour.
Do you serve the rest of Middlesex County?
Yes. Cambridge is what people search for, but crews run throughout Middlesex County and the surrounding towns.
What if my Cambridge closing date moves?
It happens on a large share of moves, which is why storage in transit exists. Your shipment sits in a monitored warehouse and comes out when the new place is ready. Tell us early and it is a scheduling change rather than a scramble.
