So What Happened?

We are in and settled,,,,,,,,,thanks to Gentle Giant. I received so many great references for them that it seemed like a no-brainer. And after using them, I can see why everyone raves about them. Their careful padding of all of the furniture and good-size crews made it fast and efficient. The price was definitely worth not having to worry about damaged furniture.

Thanks for all the great responses.

Hi, We have used Brookline Moving who were very good and professional. I have also heard many good things about Gentle Giant, except they are a tad more expensive. Good luck!

Hi C.,

We have moved several times over the past 5 years and each time we've used Gentle Giant. We are happy with their coordination, preparation, moving, and follow-up. We've used them for simply moving us from one apartment to another in the same building, and moves that they pack everything, move everything, and unpack everything. We've had experience with other movers and found that this company is by far the best we've experienced. They even help set up children's furniture if you need them too (of course they charge for the time).

Here is the website:

Good luck with your move! And welcome to MA!

Good Luck with the move!

Hi C.,
Gentle Giant is a really good company. I think they are expensive but very easy to deal with and very helpful. They packed everything and nothing got broken or lost. I would use them again in a heartbeat. We used them this March for a very complicated two part move with storage and somethings coming out of storage and going out of state and some things remaining in MA. They were always willing to help me figure out how to do something and always , down to the packing guys, professional and pleasant to deal with.

Gentle Giant is great but relatively expensive but moving is always such a nightmare you may want to consider spending a little extra to make it a pleasant experience. They will come to your home for free to do an in home estimate, which is always a good idea to do anyways.
