How South Coast Moves Run from Our Waltham Base

The route is simple: I-95 or 93 to Route 24 south, then I-195 east or west along the coast. New Bedford and Dartmouth sit about 75 minutes from our headquarters; the Buzzards Bay villages — Marion, Mattapoisett, Wareham, Onset — a few minutes more. Every South Coast move is a single-day, same-crew job: load in the morning, unload the same afternoon, with your belongings on one truck the entire way.

Billing is our standard transparent model: $149/hr for a 2-mover crew, $179/hr for 3, $219/hr for 4 — 3-hour minimum, 15-minute increments after, drive time quoted in writing up front. No stair fees (and the South Coast's triple-deckers have plenty of stairs), no truck fees, no surprises.

Mill Lofts, Triple-Deckers, and Harbor Villages

The South Coast's housing mix keeps our crews versatile. New Bedford and the surrounding cities are full of converted mill buildings — gorgeous lofts with freight elevators that need reserving and long corridor carries that reward an experienced team. The same cities' triple-deckers bring classic narrow-staircase moves where our no-stair-fee policy saves real money. Out along the bay, Marion, Mattapoisett, and Westport mix historic village homes with waterfront properties — long driveways, seasonal cottages, and furniture that's been in families for generations, all padded and wrapped as standard.

Wareham and Onset sit at the gateway to the Cape, and plenty of our South Coast work connects to it — families moving between the bay villages and Greater Boston, retirees consolidating from two properties to one, and summer-home moves timed around the season. If your dates don't line up, our secure Waltham storage bridges the gap with a single load and a single redelivery.

South Coast Moving FAQs

How much does it cost to move from Boston to New Bedford or Dartmouth?

Standard hourly rates — $149–$219/hr by crew size, 3-hour minimum, 15-minute increments — with about 75 minutes of drive time each way included in the written quote. A typical 2-bedroom Boston-to-New-Bedford move runs roughly $850–$1,300 door-to-door.

Do you move mill-building lofts with freight elevators?

Regularly — New Bedford's mill conversions are familiar territory. Reserve the freight elevator with your building for the move window and we handle the rest: corridor protection, long carries, and oversized pieces through industrial doorways are standard work for our crews.

Can you handle a seasonal or waterfront home move on Buzzards Bay?

Yes — Marion, Mattapoisett, Wareham, and Onset are regular stops. Waterfront properties often mean long or sloped carries from the truck to the house; we scout access in the estimate and bring the right equipment, with no access surcharges.
