  • “EXCELLENT”

    We used Stairhoppers for a move from Boston to Virginia and couldn't be more happy with the experience. In addition to the flat rate for the move and delivery, we also used them for packing and unpacking services. The moving day happened to be during a Nor'Easter and the crew was very careful to wrap all of our items with extra blankets so nothing got wet. Overall I highly recommend Stairhoppers.

  • “WOULD RECOMMEND”

    I moved from Boston to Chicago with Stairhopper and they made the process stress free! I didn't pack a single thing, they did it all for me, and even brought boxes and moving supplies. They assembled my new furniture in Chicago and were very thoughtful when assembling and moving to avoid damage. Would recommend!

  • “FIVE STARS”

    Had to move very last minute and Stairhopper Movers was able to schedule me a full packing and move service. The crew arrived during the allotted time window and got straight to work. They packed and moved my entire 1 bedroom apartment in about 6 hours. Made a stressful situation a lot easier. Update: used Stairhopper again for another move and they were just as friendly and efficient!

  • “2ND TIME USING STAIRHOPPERS”

    If you are looking for moving or packing services, you absolutely need to hire Stairhoppers. This is the second time we used them and they were incredible both times. The team members are incredible, from the person taking the reservation over the phone to the guys who physically move everything. The price is also way more competitive than other companies we have used.

  • “HIGHLY RECOMMENDED”

    Stairhoppers helped us move from Boston to CT - they were incredibly efficient and took great care of our belongings throughout the move. They were also very reasonably priced. The Stairhoppers crew made our move so easy - we barely had to lift a finger. Highly recommend. Thank you Stairhoppers!

  • “WOULD RECOMMEND”

    Hired for an interstate move during one of the busiest weekends in the area for movers, and the price was reasonable and a good value for services rendered. Friendly movers, efficient loading, easy logistical process from start to finish, very responsive to questions, lots of helpful confirmation messages, and took good care of items.

  • “EXCELLENT”

    After an excellent experience with the Stairhoppers team in 2019, we returned to them again in 2025 for another office move. Just as before, this second move was seamless, efficient & worry-free. From sourcing the initial quote, to proactive communications ahead of the move, to the highly professional, competent & personable moving team handling everything with ease. Many, many thanks Stairhopper Movers!

  • “FLAWLESS”

    The only moving company ever to call in Boston. Our commercial move was executed flawlessly and so efficiently that a second planned afternoon shift was not required, saving our company thousands. From the earliest planning meeting to the multiple touchbases leading up to the move, Stairhoppers had us on their back! Could not be happier!

FAQ

Packing Services FAQs

Are there any items you won't move?

For everyone’s safety, there are a few items we cannot transport. These include hazardous materials such as flammable liquids, propane tanks, explosives, corrosives, and chemicals, as well as perishable food, live plants, and pets. We also recommend personally transporting irreplaceable valuables such as jewelry, important documents, family photos, keys, and other sentimental items. If you’re unsure whether a particular item can be moved, simply ask your move coordinator.

Should I remove the contents of my drawers before the move?

Yes. We recommend removing the contents of all drawers and packing them into moving boxes. Empty drawers help reduce the weight placed on the furniture, prevent drawers from opening during transport, and minimize the risk of damage. Taking this extra step helps ensure your furniture arrives safely.

Do I need to empty my filing cabinets before moving?

Yes. All filing cabinets should be completely emptied before moving. Wooden cabinets and furniture with drawers should also have all contents removed to prevent damage during transportation and to make the items safer and easier to handle.

What do I need to do before moving appliances?

Before moving day, all appliances should be emptied, cleaned, and disconnected. Dishwashers, refrigerators, washing machines, dryers, and microwaves should be free of water and contents. Please note that our movers are not licensed plumbers or electricians, so customers should arrange for qualified professionals to disconnect appliances, gas lines, water lines, chandeliers, or any permanently installed fixtures before the move.

Can I get an estimate for my move?

Yes, and it’s free with no obligation to book with us. Call us at (857) 928-0876 or fill out the quick form at stairhoppers.com/free-estimate and we’ll put together a quote for you. Our estimates are all-inclusive, meaning we don’t tack on surprise charges for stairs, fuel, mileage, furniture preparation, or packing materials. What we quote is what you pay.

Do you have availability on my preferred moving date?

The fastest way to check availability is to call us at (857) 928-0876 or request a free quote online. If you’re moving between May and September, weekends and the first and last week of each month book up first, so we recommend contacting us 4 to 5 weeks in advance. The earlier you book, the better your chances of securing your preferred moving date and time.
