Customer Testimonials

I selected Five College Movers on the basis of their great reviews, and my verdict is they earned the five star ratings! The crew members- Maddox, Eriksen, and Zev - arrived on time and were very polite, friendly, and incredibly hard working, and they wasted no time in getting everything moved safely in some difficult circumstances. I highly recommend them!!!

sally B.

We received very professional and courteous service for our move. The team of four people that moved us were friendly and polite, and did everything we could ask and more. The various people we dealt with over the phone for the quote, scheduling and follow up were also prepared and respectful.

Michael Q.

I used Five College Movers yesterday and can’t stop telling everyone how professional, punctual and reasonable priced they were. My request was unique in that that they were able to empty my two bedroom apartment and not only bring certain items to my storage facility but also my home and the unwanted things to the dump. It was so easy, convenient and seriously stress free. I will definitely be using them in the future.

danielle S.

Second time using them, excellent yet again. Professional, fast, considerate and overall a great moving experience. Highly recommend.

Jake's R.

Everyone we spoke to was very knowledgeable and professional. They showed up on time, explained the price afterwards and followed up to be sure we were satisfied.

Jessica D.

We are very happy with our choice of hiring Five College Movers. All of the people we were in contact with were very professional. The guys arrived right on time and went to work right away. I was impressed how quick and efficient they worked. Would definitely recommend and hire again if needed.

Dennis W.

They did a great job, as usual! This was my second time using them. Organized, efficient, friendly, clear communication.

Maria C.

Highly recommend! Much better than movers I’ve used in the past which I learned were just a franchise. Jakob and Ryan were amazing to work with. I was shocked at how attentive they were, asking all the questions to make sure everything was packed and then placed properly. Reasonably priced for the great service, easy to book, and great communication leading up to the move Thank you all!

Arianna O.

We had a great experience with Five College Movers. They were promptly communicative and made scheduling our move really easy. Everyone we talked with was very friendly and helpful and the guys doing the move itself were awesome. They were on-time, worked both efficiently and carefully, and got the job knocked out in just a few hours (not including travel of course), all of which took a ton of stress off our plate. Would absolutely recommend FCM for your next move, they’re great!

Outstanding! I did my homework between five or six different companies going through the better business bureau and several hundred reviews. I made my decision based on all of those and I was not disappointed. The crew was a little bit early to go over the game plan. And once nine o'clock hit, they took off like a shot and didn't stop. They were extremely sociable, wellmannored and took great care of my belongings, as if they were their own. I don't plan on moving again for a few years.But if and when I do, it's a no brainer who i'm gonna call. Great job, guys.I appreciate all the help.

The three helpers are very careful and thoughtful during both the moving things out from the old apartment and moving into the new condo. They did an excellent job wrapping things up, loading them to where we would like them to be. Their professionalism is greatly demonstrated. Definitely recommend them!

Absolutely fantastic helpers! Although the movers got a little held up at their first job, they communicated their timeline with me as the day went on and showed up for our move with energy and kindness to spare! They helped with so much, and were kind and patient as obstacles arose. Can not recommend them highly enough!

The movers were prompt and efficient. They did an excellent job negotiating some narrow stairs. I would highly recommend using them!

Alex Stavros

1759154029

From beginning to end Five College Movers met and exceeded my expectations. Having an initial video estimate to walk through the work gave me comfort knowing that, before arriving, they properly prepped for the job. The estimate I received was accurate within 15 minutes of completed work (they finished a bit early). The movers worked extremely hard, were realistic and logical with their approach and were extraordinarily friendly. Everything was handled with care. I will certainly be using their services again. I cannot recommend their services enough.

Joyce Young

The packing team did a careful job packing my belongings and the next day moving team did a great job moving my belongings. Each team worked very efficiently together, were respectful of my belongings and property, and were easy to communicate with and give direction to. I found everyone at Five College Movers, from start to finish, very responsive, friendly, helpful, and positive.

Connie Ballou

1758820633

Everything about my experience with Five College Movers was super smooth, from my first interaction with Phil and his responsiveness to my unusual situation, through the moving day and Jacob’s helpfulness and timeliness in meeting schedules at the drop off spot. The price was very reasonable, the estimate was timely given and accurate, and items were well packed and accounted for. I would have zero hesitation to recommend them to anyone.

Wow! What a great experience we had with this company - it made arriving after 4 days of driving SO much easier and relaxing than anticipated. The guys were super friendly, listened to us, and went way above and beyond. They were the perfect blend of fast and careful, and quite accurate with where things went. We were both super impressed and grateful to have gone with them. It’s cliche but genuinely wish I could give them more stars!

Sue Ring

1757974752

They all advertise stress free but this company really was street free. They worked with me when I had to bounce the moving date back and forth with no hesitation. They were on time, respectful and courteous. You cannot go wrong hiring them. My move from Maine to Ma was a nightmare. Arriving 5 hours late and overcharging me. Needless to say I was very leary hiring movers. Read the reviews and talked to many locals and glad I did. Hire the 5 college guys you won't be sorry.

Emily DiBartolo

This was my first time using movers and they were excellent! My apartment is a challenging fifth floor walk-up, but these guys did the whole thing in an hour. They also navigated tight parking on the difficult one-way streets in Boston. I would highly recommend!

Amreen Shaikh

Great bunch of Guys. On time, respectful, polite. I will enjoy using them again.

Kim Stillwell

1756411668

Friendly, responsive and skilled! We had an excellent experience with 5 College Movers. Ben and Ellis were friendly, detail oriented and clearly experienced with navigating tricky things like narrow New England stairwells. They were able to move out our 7 foot couch in 15 minutes. It had taken us an hour to move it in by ourselves when we purchased it. I had a few scheduling snafus happen with the rental truck we were using and the staff at Five College Movers were responsive and flexible about the timing of their arrival. I would rehire them if I needed to move again.

Stephen P.

1756395543

The 3-man crew that came out was absolutely amazing all around. They were quick and efficient, and were accommodating to anything extra that I needed packed & moved. They were complete professionals in how they moved about getting things done and in their respectful demeanor. I could not say higher praises for Rainy's crew and the work they do, I would recommend them to anyone in need of their services. Thank you again for all of the help they saved me a whole lot of headaches. I have moved quite a lot before and done it for work previously but I still couldn't have asked for better hands.

Bill Catalano

1756387888

Great team came in. Moved us out of a rental with most of our stuff in a basement into our new to us house. Everything went where it was supposed to go, Heath, Ellis and Cam were on-time, fast, efficient and worked smart. Plus they were friendly yet respectful to us and our property.

Fresh off a move using Five College Movers and all I can say is MONEY WELL SPENT!!! There’s no way I could have done it without them! Gilbert was AMAZING and I have to say, this could be the best investment I have ever made…couldn’t have done it without them. They arrived, went right to work, and got the job done! The apartment was on the third floor (plus another huge staircase to get up to the building) and they maneuvered the boxes and an impossibly large sectional couch down those stairs like pros! I appreciated the care they took in protecting the furniture and bedding with blankets and plastic so that nothing was damaged. Upon arrival at the new house, they went right back at it, delivered each box and piece of furniture exactly where it needed to go, instructing us to “just point” and they’d place it down. It was well into the evening that the move was complete and they never even took a break, despite the Summer heat. They really made an overwhelming move a cinch so that all that was left for me was unpacking and enjoying my new home. THANK YOU Five College Movers, if I ever move again, you’ll be the first call I make! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Joe Wernet

The movers were prompt and ready to go. They were efficient and in constant steady motion. The movers took excellent care in protecting our furniture and boxes. They were very polite and adaptable. I would definitely use 5 college movers again, they made a very big day smooth and easy.

Robert Loughrey

1755957637

In the quoting process, the team was extremely accurate and honest about what was needed to do the large scope of work. Due to my budget constraints, the team did what they could efficiently and effectively, and understood that I had constraints on what could be done. The team completely exceeded my expectations, were delicate and rapid in material movement, and the quote was exactly in line with the actual price.

Pilar Goldstein-Dea

1755879432

Impeccable, friendly service. They were on time and quick, but careful. Their demeanor and care soothed our nerves and made for a really smooth day! Thanks for a great move.
