A few factors
determine the cost of a local move.
Local moves are priced
upon an hourly labor rate which is computed by the number of men
and the number of trucks needed to perform the job. The time it
takes the moving "crew" to drive to your residence, load the truck, drive to your new address,
unload the truck, place your possessions at your discretion, and drive time back to our warehouse
is multiplied by the hourly labor rate.
Potential additional charges to your final move bill could
be the purchase of packing materials, crating services, parking
permit services, or any additional shipment insurance. Local moves
are calculated on an hourly basis and have a minimum of two hours.
The amount of items you wish to relocate and the overall size of
your residence will determine your estimate of costs and the number
of men you will need.
A local move may take
a couple of hours or a couple of days, based on the size and the
services requested. Big Foot Moving & Storage, Inc. will perform
your move within your requested time frame. We are fully aware of
the many factors involved in selecting a moving date, such as closing
date, lease expiration, family matters, work schedule, and restrictions
of building management. Big Foot Moving & Storage, Inc. offers
great attention to our customers' moving time requirements.

I have moved across the country, as well as locally within Boston, several times. My experience with national moving companies (e.g., United, Allied, etc.) as well as with Boston firms has been far from satisfactory. However, Big Foot Storage & Moving is a different story. Their services exceeded my highest expectations. My wife & I had a very complex move. It actually consisted of five parts. First, after we sold our home in the Boston suburbs, Big Foot packed & labeled all our belongings. Next, we moved our computer & office equipment to our new residence to allow me to set up our home office. Two days later, Big Foot moved a portion of our belongings to our new home & helped us unpack. The next day, they took our remaining items & put them in storage. A month later, Big Foot loaded all our stored items into a 24-ft rental truck for transport to our 2nd home in the Southwest. They even delivered the loaded rental truck to me for my drive West. As the phases progressed, I learned to trust Big Foot''s team totally. I did not even supervise the last stage - the loading of the rental truck. Friends who helped me unload the truck in the Southwest marveled at the care and skill of the packing job done by Big Foot. Everything was moved exactly as planned. Not one thing, including delicate art objects & sensitive stereo equipment, was lost, mislabeled or broken. The guys are exceptional - helpful & competent. They were professional, courteous, dependable, punctual, trustworthy, & conscientious. I recommend Big Foot unreservedly.
