“If I could rate the movers with 10 stars, I would. Pedro and Alberto were fantastic! They were friendly, professional, and they did a great job. I highly recommend them.”
Framingham is not a one-size-fits-all city. With 16 distinct neighborhoods and a housing stock that spans historic Victorian homes in Saxonville, mid-century ranches in Nobscot, condos along the Route 9 corridor, and apartment buildings near Framingham Centre and downtown, a local move here can look completely different depending on where you’re starting and where you’re going.
Smart Penny Moving® handles local moves across all of Framingham, from single-family home relocations in established neighborhoods like Nobscot and Woodbridge to apartment moves near the commuter rail station and condo transfers along the Route 9 corridor. We plan each move around the specific property and the specific situation, not a generic approach that treats every job the same.
Framingham has a 55% homeownership rate and a significant renter population, which means we regularly work with both owners moving established households and renters making faster transitions. Our crews are equipped for both: the right truck size for a full family home, and the efficiency needed for a smooth apartment move.
The city’s diversity also means we work with families from many different backgrounds and language communities. We focus on clear communication at every step so nothing gets lost in the process.
Framingham has a 55% homeownership rate and a significant renter population, which means we work with both owners relocating established households and renters making faster transitions. Our crews are equipped for both: the right truck size for a full family home, and the efficiency needed for a smooth apartment move. Framingham’s older housing stock, 77% built before 1980, means tight staircases, older elevator systems, and buildings that need more care than newer construction. Our crew is experienced with exactly this kind of property. And because Framingham is one of Massachusetts’s most diverse cities, we focus on clear communication at every step so nothing gets lost in the process.
Let’s keep it clear: Smart Penny Moving only charges you for the time you need our services. There are no hidden charges or fees, as we like to keep the billing process simple.
Moving in MA? We begin charging when we leave our headquarters in Framingham and we stop charging when we arrive back to our offices. We don’t charge for traffic!
In addition to charging for time, we also add on costs for providing tape, boxes, shrink wrap, and mattress covers. If you have your own supplies we happily use yours and no additional charge will be levied.
There are a couple of items we do not transport, including the following: A. Gas, B. Paints, C. Passports, D. Money, E. Phones, F. Animals
Renting a truck in Framingham means navigating Route 9 traffic with an unfamiliar vehicle, figuring out parking near older multi-unit buildings, and doing it all while exhausted from packing. For Framingham’s diverse community, many of whom are making their first move in the US, hiring a professional crew removes every variable and puts the logistics in experienced hands. The cost difference is smaller than most people expect, and the difference in stress is significant.
A Framingham local move can mean a single-bedroom apartment near the commuter rail or a four-bedroom Victorian in Saxonville, and both require a different plan. We don’t apply the same approach to every job. Tell us what you’re moving and where, and we’ll build the service around your actual situation, full-service from packing through setup, or just the crew and truck if you’ve handled everything else.
Our movers are background-checked, trained in-house, and show up knowing what the job involves, not figuring it out as they go. Framingham’s mix of housing types and older building stock means our crew encounters tight staircases, narrow hallways, and older elevator systems regularly. That experience means fewer surprises on moving day and a job that runs on schedule.
Framingham’s older housing stock often means belongings accumulated over many years, vintage furniture, heirlooms, and specialty items that need more than standard bubble wrap. Our crew wraps, organizes, and labels everything by room and fragility. Artwork, china, antiques, and electronics get individual attention. At the destination, we unpack and place so you’re not living out of boxes through the first week in your new Framingham home.
Large furniture is disassembled before it moves and put back together exactly where you want it at the new address. Beds, wardrobes, desks, and shelving, handled by the same crew start to finish, no separate contractor needed.
Everything gets wrapped before it leaves the room, blankets on furniture, stretch wrap on anything that could scratch. Loading is strategic: weight distributed properly, fragile items protected, nothing stacked carelessly. At the destination, items come off the truck the same way they went on.
Framingham’s housing variety, from tight apartment buildings downtown to older multi-family homes in established neighborhoods, creates real physical challenges for DIY moves. Without the right equipment, furniture gets damaged in stairwells. Without the right truck size, multiple trips eat up an entire day. A professional crew brings dollies, straps, floor runners, furniture pads, and the experience to move through Framingham’s building types without incidents.
Framingham’s mix of older multi-family buildings, tight stairwells, and narrow hallways makes moving genuinely physical work that requires the right technique and equipment. Our crew uses proper dollies, furniture straps, floor runners, and padding on every job, not because it’s required, but because it’s how you move heavy items through older buildings without someone getting hurt or a wall getting damaged.

Samuel, Walter, and Guiermo did a great job. Was very happy with how well they worked and how easy they made our move. Would highly recommend. Reasonable price for moving out of one house, storing overnight, and moving in the next day

We hired SmartPenny moving to help us move from our apartment in Brookline to a condo in Boston. Alberto was the absolute best, he was communicative, prompt, and took excellent care of all of our possessions. He was joined by Guillermo H, Melvin L, and Misael S who were truly all stars in moving our furniture both down stairs and then up roughly 60 steps to our new place. I couldn’t recommend them more strongly and will be sure to use them if we ever move again. Thank you!

Amazing experience with Samuel, Melvin, and Alex! They did a great job, they were very thorough and careful with our stuff. They were right on time and finished much faster than I expected. They also packed up our entire kitchen and did a great job unpacking it too. Very impressive work!
Leo Boudreau
Great group to work with. From Michael in the office and then the movers, great service every stage of the move. With all the snow, it was a challenge parking the truck and getting the furniture into the house. Samuel, Omar and Guillermo problem solved around each issue and got the job done. I would give Smart Penny Moving my highest recommendation. And I thought their prices were very reasonable.

MAJOR MAJOR thank you to Samuel and Irvin!!! Not only were they super quick and helpful, but they were also incredibly kind and a joy to work with. They were both so careful my belongings, which means a great deal to me, you can’t say that about many movers. I’ve moved at least 3 times in the past 5 or so years and have only ever used Smart Penny, and I’ll continue to do so! Thanks again!

This is my second time using Smart Penny Movers and I could not recommend them highly enough. They are very professional, very communicative and take great care of your things. Estuardo was the main mover and he was fantastic! They are also very up front with costs and very reasonable.
Urshila Sriram
Estuardo, Guillermo, and Alex were wonderful! They were lovely to work with and very efficient and professional. Completed our large 2-bedroom apartment move in ~3 hours, we couldn’t have done it without them. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for movers in the area!!
Susan Stephenson
Smart Penny Moving delivered! Communication with Michael and Alan all through the process was great. I’m sure I called out of regular business hours a few times to change or clarify things, but it didn’t seem to bother them. The pick up was done by 3 guys within 6 hours. It was stunning to watch the speed and care they took packing 20 years of life and a 2 BR house into one truck. Estuado wrapped everything well and took special care of the special items. The delivery the other end was just as careful with Juan in charge. I felt a bit lazy being the ‘director’ and not lifting boxes, but the mover suggested (tactfully) that would make the process go quicker. Had I known my move would have been this smooth, I think I’d have relaxed before they arrived. THANK YOU!
Alifa Watkins
Estuardo, Alex and Omar were the BEST movers I’ve ever had. They were patient, communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was where we wanted it. Even when they didn’t even expect as big of a job as they walked in to, they were very graceful and were up to the task. 10/5!!!
Emeric Viani
Outstanding experience. Quick quote for a small job to move a couch across town, cheapest of five companies I contacted. Final price ended up being $100 less due to how much time the job took. Both movers were exceedingly kind, prompt, and efficient. I would gladly use them again in the future.
Leah Kosch
Alberto Alex Omar were fantastic. They moved our piano!! They were efficient, great with communication, and did a great job with our move. We’ve used Smart Penny twice now and would use them again.
Andrew Malison-Reardon
Samuel, Omar, and Guillermo were fantastic movers. They were efficient, polite, and thoughtful when handling our belongings. I highly recommend using them for your move.
Lucie feufeu
Estuardo was excellent, fast, and efficient. I was moved into my apartment quickly and everything was delivered safely without any damage. Would 100% recommend!
Kaila Wilson Birchall
Our movers were excellent! They showed up a little early. They were very efficient with moving everything both in and out. They were quick to arrive at our house. Everything was handled with care. They were also very friendly! Great price, the company is very professional! Online system to figure out pricing was excellent! Would highly recommend.
Charlotte Dobbs
We had a great move today with Samuel and his crew! They were so kind, helpful and strong! They took great care of our things and did a great job disassembling and reassembling some of our furniture. They really took care to make sure that we had an easy process of moving and getting settled in. We are so grateful!
