I picked better life moving after discussing my need with the woman who returned my call. Everything was set for a Sunday afternoon pick up and delivery of a pool table i had purchased. The window they gave me was 2:00-3:00 window. I arrived at about 2:10 to the seller's house. Waited until almost 3:45 with no contact from the moving company. So not only did they make me wait around they also made the sellers waste their time. I tried calling the office yet got no response even though it said on their site they were open. I would never use this company for any moving needs. Apparently the customer doesn't matter to this company. I figure now I will have to fight to get my deposit returned.

This moving company is aptly named Better Life Moving. I hired them through the thumbtack app. Professional from the beginning, response time was fast and I was able to schedule with not much lead time. Communication was impeccable including budget friendly costs and just taking this move head on. Both apts had tricky parking but that didn't stop them from pulling their very large moving van right up to the entrances. They also disassembled and then reassembled my canopy bed. They broke down two A/C's, full kitchen, three bedrooms, living room and outdoor patios and put it all back together again at my new apt!

Great job! Very responsive and professional. Price was a little high...but I did call last minute...during the busiest moving time in Boston! It was reasonable compared with the competition. And they didn't get Storrowed! :D

I had to do an emergency move at the end of July and I called Better Life Moving one day before my move. I initially went with them because they were the cheapest movers but in terms of quality they were better than other movers who I have usually paid far more for. They came on time, moved everything quickly, were very handy with the pieces of furniture that needed disassembling, made sure not to scratch my floors, and rounded down to the nearest minute for the cost (unheard of in the moving industry - most people either round up to the nearest quarter, or the nearest hour). I've seldom had experiences where folks go above and beyond to really ensure a great quality of service. This was one of those.

A great moving company. They helped to move some of my stuff to the storage. The guys came on time, they were professional and friendly. I will hire these guys again for sure! I highly recommend this company.
