I’m Owen Brennan. Every year on September 1st, Massachusetts leases turn over all at once — Bostonians call it Allston Christmas — and it’s the most gridlocked packing-and-moving day on the calendar across every Middlesex and Boston college-adjacent neighborhood. We start booking full-pack jobs for it weeks ahead.

Our crew packs a full triple-decker or condo start to finish: kitchens, closets, fragile items, electronics, the works, using our own materials and our own W-2 crew — not day labor. The flat rate is locked in writing before we start, so there’s no per-box surprise at the end.

Crew size Rate Best for
2 movers + truck $175/hr Partial pack, studio-1BR
3 movers + truck $225/hr Full-home pack, 2BR+

Sample flat-rate packing jobs:

Job Flat rate
Full pack, 1-bedroom triple-decker, Somerville $480
Full pack, 2-bedroom condo, Cambridge $720
Kitchen + fragile-only pack, South End brownstone $310
Full pack, 3-bedroom colonial, Newton $980
Full pack, 4-bedroom home, Lexington $1,240

Packed items are covered by $0.60/lb released-value coverage standard, with full-value protection up to $1,000,000 in cargo coverage available, and we operate under our Massachusetts DPU household-goods permit. Pairing a pack job with a move? See local moving or long-distance moving. Need somewhere to hold boxes between leases? Check short-term storage.
