The crew arrived right on time and handled everything with incredible care. They wrapped every piece of furniture and even took apart our beds without us asking. The whole move took less time than we expected. Highly recommend!

3-Bedroom Home · Brookline to Newton · February 2026

I've used Boston Best Rate three times now. Every single time, the crew has been professional, fast, and careful. No hidden fees — the price they quoted was the price I paid. They're my go-to movers.

David K.

2-Bedroom Apartment · Cambridge · January 2026

We relocated our entire office of 40 desks, conference tables, and IT equipment. They planned everything down to the last detail. Zero damage, minimal downtime. Our team was back to work the next morning.

Jennifer L.

Long-Distance Office Move · Boston to Waltham · December 2025

Even for my small studio move, they treated it like a priority. Two movers showed up and had everything loaded in under an hour. Very affordable with the hourly rate and no surprise charges at the end.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about moving with Boston Best Rate Movers.

Boston moving rates typically range from $149/hr to $199/hr depending on crew size, time of year, and move complexity. At Boston Best Rate Movers, local moves start at $149/hr for a two-person crew with a truck. A studio or one-bedroom apartment usually takes 2-4 hours ($300-$600), while a two-bedroom averages 4-6 hours ($600-$900). Three-bedroom homes and larger typically require a three-person crew and 6-8 hours. Long-distance moves are quoted based on weight and mileage. We bill in 15-minute increments after the initial 3-hour minimum, so you only pay for the time actually used. Every quote includes the crew, truck, dollies, blankets, and basic floor protection — no hidden fees.
