Apartment and Condo Moves

Walk-ups, no elevators, permit parking, and college move-out crunch, all handled.

Apartment moving in New England is its own sport. Brownstone walk-ups with no elevator, brick-front triple-deckers with a back staircase barely wide enough for a couch, resident-permit parking that turns a quick load into a logistics puzzle — that is the terrain our crews live in. Economy Movers prices these honestly at $99 an hour for two movers or $137 for three, and we do not invent a fee because your building lacks a loading dock.

We know the difference between a Beacon Hill third-floor walk-up and a modern Cambridge complex with a freight elevator you have to reserve. We plan the parking, the elevator slot, and the carry before move day so the clock does not run while we figure things out.

Built for the Buildings We Work In

Tight stairwells, low ceilings, and doorways that an oversized sectional simply will not clear — we have a plan for each. Couches stand on end, bed frames come apart, and protective pads go on the banisters so you get your security deposit back. Loading- or unloading-only help is available at $99 an hour with no equipment minimum.

College Move-Out Season

Every May, students clear out of Harvard, MIT, BU, Northeastern, Brown, Yale, and UVM all at once, and parking is a war zone. We book early, work fast, and handle move-outs that cross state lines back home. Studios start at $260 and one-bedrooms at $420.

Lock your date with a $79 deposit before the May rush fills up.

What Boston Folks Tell Us

Megan R.
Beacon Hill, Boston · Google

“Our Beacon Hill place is a fourth-floor walk-up with zero elevator and the tightest stairwell in the city, and Brian's crew never once complained. They hauled my grandmother's marble-top dresser up without a single scuff on the banister. The written quote they handed me before the job was exactly what I paid at the end, down to the dollar.”

“Moved my daughter out of her MIT apartment at the end of the spring semester when half of Cambridge was doing the same thing. Economy Movers showed up on time in their own truck, two guys in uniform, and had her packed and loaded in under three hours. Three other companies quoted me almost double what I ended up paying these folks.”

Priya S.
Worcester, MA · Google
★★★★★

“We live on the third floor of a classic Worcester triple-decker, and the back stairs are so narrow I honestly didn't think our couch would make it. The crew measured, popped the legs off, and angled it through like they'd done it a hundred times. Honest pricing, no nonsense, and they actually called the night before to confirm.”

Service Questions

My building has no elevator and three flights of stairs. Extra charge?
No elevator surcharge here. Walk-ups are everyday work for our crews, and the carry is built into your $99 or $137 hourly rate. We plan the staircase before we arrive so the move stays quick.
There is nowhere to park near my Boston apartment. How does that work?
We sort out resident-permit parking and, where the building has one, reserve the freight elevator ahead of time. Handling the parking before move day keeps the clock from running while we circle the block.
Can you move a student out of the dorm and back home across state lines?
Yes. May is our busiest college season, and we move students out of Harvard, MIT, Brown, Yale, UVM and the rest, whether home is across town or across a state line in New England. Book early, because those weeks fill fast.
What does a small apartment move cost?
Studios fall in the $260 to $420 band and one-bedrooms in the $420 to $680 band, or you can go hourly at $99 for two movers. A $79 deposit holds your date and comes off the total.
