FULLY LICENSED & INSURED COMPANY

College Moving

Better Life Moving company has been proud to offer various moving services for the college students of Boston. As many of you know, Boston is one of the most popular destinations for the best colleges and schools. MIT, Harvard, Boston University, Northeastern University, just to name a few.

Boston College Students Moving

Every year thousands of students from all across the country and the world arrive in Boston to pursue their degrees and future career opportunities. Most of them are moving away from their families and are in need of housing. Usually during their initial stage of college, they might choose to live in dorm rooms on campus until after they get familiar with the area and rent an apartment. Many of them choose to stay in the dorm rooms throughout the whole college in order to stay on campus close to their classes, many of them have part time jobs on campus, and so on.

Appreciating and recognizing this important part of Boston’s culture, as a moving company, we wanted to make sure that we take special consideration and care to address the college segment of our customers.

We wanted to make sure all of our Boston students, especially those who are relocating from far away, have an opportunity and access to a stress-free, reliable, fast, and cost effective moving service in order to peacefully settle down at their new place whether it is a dorm room or an apartment/house. 

Better Life Moving company has performed over two thousand college moves, especially during the month of August, which is the month where most of the college students need to move. Due to our low cost and reliable service, our company was able to gain many happy clients that have been returning to us for their future moving needs. 

Why hiring Better Life movers for college moving services for students

Better Life Moving company has always been about working for customers and offering them the best quality service for an affordable cost. 

We understand that oftentimes, students are not able to afford moving services and that’s why we have created a perfect solution for them. 

Most of the college students in Boston need to move on the same date. If you are a Boston resident, you have probably seen it before, August 31st or September 1st is where you get to see all the moving trucks pretty much on every street of Boston, especially those close to the colleges. 

For that specific reason, we started offering combined moves for our students. What that means, is that, for example, if there are two students living in the same dorm and they both need to move out from their dorm-rooms to the same area, we would perform one service for both of them. We would carefully load the belongings of the first student, then of the second student, move their items together in one truck, and then unload them one by one as well. In that case, they are able to split the cost between them and thus get professional help for their move for half of the price. 

What we include in our college moving rates

The cost of all the protective materials for your belongings, such as blankets, wraps, and shrinks is already included in the hourly rate and our movers will use all this equipment while working with you on transporting your items. They will carefully wrap everything to make sure your belongings are safe and protected while on move. You don’t need to worry about arriving at your dorm room only to find that some of your favorite items have been damaged or broken during their move. Better Life Moving gives you a full guarantee that every single piece of item you have is going to be safely delivered. Let us handle that part, so you could focus on setting yourself in your new dorm room and getting to know your future classmates.

On top of our professional movers, you will be supported throughout the whole move by our excellent, reliable, and helpful customer service support team that will be there to answer all of your questions and give you the explanation of our services, company’s policies, rates, and additional costs, if any. Our customer support team will be the one generating a free estimate for you, giving you helpful tips on packing your dorm room’s items and so much more.

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.

Daria is super helpful and very quick with getting you fit into their schedule asap. Technicians did well on their first order we needed assistance with and we have since booked another job with them. Great help for moving larger heavier items! Grateful to have located this company.

Better life moving showed up on time (maybe even a minute early) with two people to move a couch down two flights and another up. The second couch they brought up was not easy to maneuver—legs would not come off and the space was tight. Initially they thought they would have to pull it up a level outside and through the patio door. Their creativity and ingenuity had them manage to make it through the front door which was incredibly impressive considering the space they had to work with! And, they did this all with no damage. The two folks were incredibly respectful, punctual and just all round nice people. I would hire them again in a heartbeat.

Very responsive and professional! Immediate response after inquiring about a (sort of) last minute job (for one day later). U received a very competitive quote (another company that reached out after asked for double what they quoted!) Upon arrival, there were some hiccups with the space vs. scale of the item(s) being moved (refrigerators), resulting in them needing to dismantle some parts to fit through doorway (which they’ve graciously done without any complaints). They were very professional, courteous and efficient. I couldn’t ask for a better experience! I would highly recommend them and absolutely not hesitate to use them again!
