Company information

Piece by Piece Movers was built like a puzzle. Each bit of the company was put together carefully and precisely to form a whole picture in the end. Now, its team brings that level of commitment and dedication to every move. They plan according to their client's needs and construct a beautifully executed move after the chaos of putting it together is over. This way of working has made them Boston's fastest-growing company through word-of-mouth. It is the same thing that allows them to perform over 3,000 unique moves per year. The Piece by Piece team has the resources to safely take you and your stuff across the street, the city, the state, or the country. According to the size of your move, there are four categories: micro, small, large, and complex. These groups apply to residential, commercial, and apartment moves. For any of these, they can provide packing specialists to ensure everything is protected as it should be on moving day. This company also has its own storage facility. So, if your new place isn't ready to move in yet, you can keep your belongings there and out of harm's way until the day comes.
