Narrow streets and the village center
In the village, streets are tight and parking is limited, especially from late spring to early fall. A box truck needs a plan: a legal spot close to the door, or a short shuttle for a few items. Tell us the address and we will look at the street before moving day.
Out in Pigeon Cove and along Route 127 the houses spread out, but many sit on ledge with stone steps and sloped yards. Photos of the path from the street to the door help us bring the right crew.
Seasonal homes and second homes
A lot of Rockport moves are seasonal: opening a summer house, closing it in the fall, or bringing furniture up from a Boston apartment. We can move a few pieces or a whole house, and we can work around a rental turnover date.
If nobody will be at the house on moving day, tell us how we get in and who to call. Our crew is based in Swampscott, so North Shore jobs start close to home and the travel time on your estimate stays low.
Pricing for Rockport moves
Rockport moves are billed by the hour with the same starting rates as everywhere else: 2 movers and a truck from $129/hr, 3 movers from $169/hr, 4 movers from $199/hr. There is a 3-hour minimum, and travel time counts toward it.
