What Makes This Service Different
Bought furniture that does not include delivery? Boston Best Rate Movers offers furniture delivery from any retail store, online retailer, warehouse, or private seller. We pick up your purchase, transport it carefully (padded blankets, secure straps, floor protection), and deliver it to your room of choice — including assembly if needed. Our crews regularly handle deliveries from IKEA, Wayfair, Costco, Crate & Barrel, West Elm, Pottery Barn, Bob's Discount Furniture, Jordan's, Boston Interiors, antique dealers, estate sales, Craigslist purchases, and Facebook Marketplace sellers.
Why use a professional moving crew for delivery instead of a friend with a truck: scratched floors, dented walls, dropped furniture, and broken IKEA flat-pack pieces are extraordinarily common in DIY furniture deliveries. Our crews use the same care for a $400 IKEA dresser as they do for a $4,000 estate-sale antique. Every item is wrapped in padded blankets for transport. Floor protection is installed at the destination. Doorways and walls are guarded with corner protectors during the carry. If your purchase includes flat-pack assembly, we handle it on-site.
Pricing: 2-mover crew starting from $149/hr at our off-peak discount tier, with a 3-hour minimum. Most single-item or small-load deliveries complete in 2-3 hours ($447-$596). Larger deliveries (bedroom sets, full living room sets, multi-store pickups) run 3-5 hours ($447-$895). Same-day pickup-and-deliver is standard for items within Greater Boston; multi-stop deliveries (e.g., picking up from three different sellers) are common. Assembly of flat-pack items is included in the hourly rate.

About Furniture Delivery Boston
Buying furniture is the easy part — getting it into your home, up the stairs, through the doorway, and assembled in the right room is where things get difficult. Boston Best Rate Movers has been providing professional furniture delivery and placement services across Greater Boston since 2002, handling deliveries from retail stores, online marketplace purchases, estate sales, and private sellers.
Our crews deliver, carry, place, and assemble furniture so you do not have to rely on store delivery services that leave items on the curb or in the lobby. Retail store deliveries are one of our most popular services.
You purchased a sofa from Jordan's, a dining set from Restoration Hardware, a bedroom set from Bob's, or a custom piece from a local furniture maker. The store offers delivery, but their service drops the item at the door or, at best, in the first room inside the entrance.
They do not carry furniture up four flights in a Beacon Hill walkup. They do not navigate narrow triple-decker staircases in Allston.
They do not assemble the bed frame and attach the headboard. Our crew does all of that.
We pick up the furniture from the store or warehouse, transport it in our padded truck, carry it into your home and up any number of stairs, place it in the exact room and position you choose, and handle any required assembly.
Online marketplace purchases — from Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, OfferUp, and similar platforms — are another common delivery scenario. You found the perfect mid-century credenza in a Newton home or a barely-used sectional in a Somerville apartment.
The seller will not deliver, and the piece is too large for your vehicle. Our two-person crew picks up the item from the seller's location, wraps it in padded blankets for transport, and delivers it to your home with full stair carry, room placement, and floor protection.
You avoid the risk of damage that comes with trying to fit furniture into an SUV or borrowing a friend's pickup truck. Estate sale and auction pickups follow the same process.
You won a piece at an estate sale in Brookline or a consignment shop in the South End, and you need it delivered to your home in Cambridge. Our crew handles the pickup, wrapping, transport, and delivery — and for antique or fragile pieces, we apply the same elevated care we use on our full antique moves, including soft wrapping, corner protection, and gentle handling throughout.
Assembly is included when the piece requires it. Bed frames, dining tables, desks, shelving units, and flat-pack furniture are assembled at the destination by our crew using their professional tool kit.
If the furniture came with assembly instructions and hardware, we follow them precisely. If it did not, our crews have enough experience to assess the piece and assemble it correctly.
Floor protection is installed at your home before the furniture comes through the door. Hardwood runners, carpet protectors, and doorframe padding prevent the scratches and scuffs that commonly occur during furniture delivery in older Boston buildings.
Our furniture delivery rates start at $149 per hour for a two-person crew and truck, with a three-hour minimum and 15-minute billing increments. No stair fees, no hidden charges.
All wrapping materials, equipment, and floor protection are included. We are fully licensed under USDOT #1718049 with cargo insurance on every delivery.

Furniture is the backbone of every move, and how it is handled determines whether you arrive at your new home with pristine pieces or scratched, dented, and damaged ones.
Loading a rental truck, PODS container, or portable storage unit is one of the most physically demanding and technically important tasks in any move.
Unloading is the final and often most exhausting phase of any move.
