Short move from Lex to Waltham 1 bedroom. Miguel & Kenis were super efficient with time, incredibly careful with all items/ high attention to detail, and really just nice people to work with. So thankful for such a great crew. Thanks Born to Move team.

Born to Move moved us from Massachusetts to Colorado. They were the best moving service we have ever had. They had to move our furniture and belongings down three flights of stairs and we were so surprised at how swiftly and efficiently they did the work. This was a huge move for us and we were so grateful for the crew's kindness throughout. We highly recommend this company and will use them again when we move back to New England!

I can't recommend these movers enough! They arrived on time and immediately got to work. They were kind, courteous and hard working. They accommodated everything I needed to have done including an extra stop to pick up additional items. Also, they were almost half the price of other movers I contacted and did not care that my move was on the smaller side. Thank you so much!

I cannot recommend Born to Move enough. Incredibly efficient, careful, and nice. Moved an entire apartments worth of boxes and furniture from a storage unit into our new apt in only a few hours. The team of Vlad, Jared, and Kostiya were a pleasure to work with and eliminated the stress that comes with moving. This was our 3rd time working with Born to Move and it won't be our last.

The team from born to move was amazing - they were able to take our 2 bedroom very full apartment into our new home quickly in the rain and were professional the whole time. Jenya, Tinken, and David were awesome and got everything all set up for us across the multiple floors of our house!

Could not have had a better experience in my move from NYC to the Boston area. The movers arrived on time, completed the move in the estimated time, and treated my belongings with the utmost care and concern. From beginning to end the company and movers were communicative and trustworthy. Thank you so much for an excellent experience.

Alex and Tony are extremely reliable! They'll work with you throughout the entire moving process. Their foreman Javier is spectacular! After using many moving companies in the past and not getting any satisfaction, BorntoMove set the bar high now for me and they overdelivered. Great group of people!

After a nightmare scenario of a different large name moving company standing me up on the day of my move I found Born To Move online. A quick call explaining my dilemma and the need for a last minute next day move and I was set for everything just roughly 12 hours later. The movers arrived early and ready to go handling a difficult move through and old home with lots of corners and narrow doorways. This company y saved me and there coats were lower than the horrible company who left me high and dry the day before. Would recommend this company to anyone in the area who is Moving!

Born to Move helped us on our long distance move from Chicago to Boston! They were very kind, professional, and flexible. The quote was fair and they were transparent about costs. They were also just incredibly efficient in moving our things into our new 4th floor walk-up apartment! Could not recommend them more!

Born to Move was the best investment I ever made! My partner and I were moving from Boston to Chicago, and the Born to Move team made it that much easier. Alex was very responsive with our quote and final booking, the two team members were incredibly professional/efficient/effective and packed up our whole one-bed apartment in ~3 hours on a Tuesday. Our items never left the van they were packed in, and the team drove it straight from Boston to Chicago the next day. Thursday morning, two more guys arrived at 9 on the dot and had the whole thing unloaded within 2 hours! Will definitely recommend BornToMove to anyone in the future.

Alex & the team at Born to Move were absolutely fantastic. They were prompt to respond & answer all of my questions in the weeks & days leading up to my move. On the day of the move, they called in the morning to give me updates on their arrival time (they were very prompt!) and were incredibly efficient throughout the entire move process. We never had any worries about the care that they were taking with all of our things. Overall, they moved our entire condo by lunchtime and brought everything where it needed to go in our new home. I'd recommend them to anyone moving!

Quoted fixed price and that was unbeatable and was looking very suspicious but it was REAL quote. Movers made it on time, professionally loaded and unloaded. The team was very respectful and careful. I will recommend to try the Movers "Born To Move" and have great experience like we had.

Had a great experience with the team here for a long distance move. I needed a specific COI for my building and they were responsive and quick to prepare all necessary documents. The move itself was stellar. They were on-time, friendly, and careful with all my belongings.

First, Born to Move had the best prices I could find for MA. But the real reason I am giving five stars is because of the exceptional professionalism and customer service I got from Juan and Nixon. It was just the two of them for my small move so I was worried about how long it would take but these guys hustled and made moving my 30 boxes look easy. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was placed where I needed it and were super polite and communicative.

And they did it all with a kind smile. Nixon and Juan deserve a raise for delivering excellent customer service and efficient moving service! Hopefully I don't have to move again soon but if I did I would request these gentlemen by name. Highly recommend Born to Move- I imagine they train all their guys to be as helpful and hard working as Juan and Nixon were!

We had a complicated move from NYC to Boston with 2 additional stops. The movers carefully protected the large times and managed to fit a huge number of small items into the same truck. We were impressed with their diligence and attention to detail.

Born to Move moved us from Boston to Buffalo. We were not in Boston at the time. So I asked them to do a quick cleaning after they removed everything. They gave me a quote for the move and the cleaning and stuck to it. We got our entire security deposit back. They were on time. Everything arrived in good condition. They were very professional and honest. I would definitely recommend using Born to Move!

I LOVE THEM! I have never had a good experience with movers, but Born to Move was amazing. They were very reasonably priced and had no hidden fees or surprises. They ALWAYS answered the phone and kept their word. They came and picked up my stuff on Friday morning (Boston) and delivered it the next day, Saturday night (Philadelphia). We also forgot a piece of furniture in Boston and they went back Saturday morning to make sure it got on the truck. The only thing I recommend is to be patient with their arrival times and make sure you label and track your own boxes. HIGHLY RECOMMEND and plan to use again!

The movers were punctual and moved rather efficiently. The manner was great and respectful. I was quoted a flat rate for an out of state move from Boston to Philly and was pleased with their service. For the first leg, they had 3 movers. For the second leg where it was an apartment building with no stairs, however, only 2 movers were assigned to the job. And I had to help out with the move since it started getting late and I felt bad for the guys. Hope they could improve on that in the future. Will use their service again.

This was the easiest move that I have made with the help of these movers. The Alex's were efficient, effective, and friendly. Nothing was broken or scratched. They drove from Massachusetts to Pennsylvania and did my move in a weekend. Nothing was a problem for them. We moved a one bedroom apartment, and there were no elevators at the destination. They managed everything perfectly. Super impressive. Would highly recommend.

Used 2 men for a small move from an apartment to a house. 2 men showed right on time, were very carefully and friendly. Finished in way under the estimated time. Excellent movers

Great beyond expectations. These guys are real pros and though it was a small move it was not easy given the 3 flight rickety, windy stair walk up at the move into end. They were undaunted and accomplished the move with no issues whatsoever. A special hats off to Lamar, the crew head, who was both a super professional and a great guy to talk with. I cannot imagine a better choice for a Boston based move. They get my highest recommendation, A . Steve F

When I called these guys they were very friendly and professional they gave me a time they would be comming and they were not late. The price was very good and not overpriced. I liked that they were carefull with moving my stuff and they were making sure to not drop or break anything. They made this moving experience stress free and affordable. I will be hiring again in the future, and recommending as well.

For the price, these guys are amazing. I wasn't sure what to expect because I have never moved before- but they answered all of my questions and they were very prompt. The entire process was really easy, as it should be. I didn't have to lift a finger the entire time. I was really, really worried about my stuff the entire time but everything arrived safely and on time! Thanks a ton to Born to Move for making my life that much easier. I will be using them when I move back home at the end of the school year.

The move was great, despite the frigid weather. The guys showed up within fifteen minutes of the scheduled time and handled my stuff with great care. When I moved years ago, I used unlicensed movers I found on Craigslist, but it wasn't so smooth and didn't go so great. I enjoyed the opposite experience with Born To Move because they genuinely seemed to respect my belongings and treated them as though they were their own.

And they seemed to know the Boston area fairly well, so there was no need for elaborate directions. Overall, the move was pretty stress-free. I didn't have a ton of stuff to move, but I was still pleasantly surprised how efficiently things went. I'd definitely recommend this company for any moves in the Greater Boston area.
