First Class Movers live up to their name! I hired them less than 24 hours before the job and emphasized I needed to have the truck cleared out by a certain time. Not only did they show up early, they brought an extra guy and got the job finished in 36 minutes and WELL before the time limit. They navigated my Cambridge building's tight doorways and winding staircases with practiced ease. I highly recommend them for any moves!

Great job! Movers were very efficient, kind, and professional. Movers communicated well and addressed all needs and concerns. I would definitely use this company again and recommend to others. The team was also very prompt and moved quickly but cautiously since rain was in the forecast on my moving day.

Blown away by the professionalism and performance of Good Guy Movers. Joey and his crew showed up with the best attitudes and executed the move better than I have ever seen a crew move before. As someone who has moved cross country and into new apartments 6+ times, I have never been as impressed with a crew. I have had every bad moving experience you could think of, and it was very refreshing to have a reliable crew that was fully in control.

Excellent service and very kind team! Our sofa was unable to fit in the elevator, and they figured out how best to get the huge sofa up 4 flights of stairs without damaging it.

They got the load done quickly and were careful to not let the cats out. They even moved a heavy chair to a different place in my living room which wasn't part of the job.

Two other moving companies that I booked kept trying to reschedule outside of my available window, so I reached out to Rare Moving & Trucking to see if they had availability for the next day. They did indeed and sent two movers my way who showed up on time and were prepared for the job. They worked hard, asked me where everything should go, and were respectful of my property. Also, super fast. I would definitely work with them again (although hopefully with more notice next time)!
