“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.”
Long-distance moves from Waltham start with a built-in advantage. Smart Penny Moving® is headquartered in Woburn, right next door to Waltham, which means trucks are prepared and ready to go without driving in from another location. When your move day starts in Waltham, it starts on time with no commute charges before the job begins.
Waltham’s diverse housing stock, South Side Victorians, family homes throughout Lakeview and Cedarwood, and apartments near Brandeis and Bentley, means long-distance moves from here vary significantly. We do a detailed pre-move walkthrough at your Waltham address, pack specifically for the long haul, and handle the full route to your new home wherever you’re headed. One crew, one plan, no handoffs to a third-party carrier you’ve never met.
A long-distance move out of Waltham involves more planning than most people expect. Whether you’re leaving a South Side Victorian, a Moody Street apartment, or a home near Brandeis University, the packing has to be right before the truck leaves. We confirm access details at both ends, communicate at every stage, and because we’re right next door in Woburn, we can do an on-site walkthrough at your Waltham home before giving you a quote, faster than any other moving company serving this area.
What you can count on:
Long distance projects have a flat rate price. What you sign for is exactly what you pay, not a penny more!
Smart Penny encourages potential and future clients to begin scheduling long distance moves a month or more ahead of time. There is no limit as how far into the future you can book your move with us.
We offer packing services that are priced by the number of boxes you need help in preparing. Any extra stops and pick ups are free within five to ten miles of the targeted route and destination.
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
The sooner you reach out the better. Long-distance moves book up, we recommend scheduling at least a month in advance, and further out for summer moves when demand peaks. Because we’re right next door in Woburn, we can schedule an on-site walkthrough at your Waltham address almost immediately. Share your origin address, destination, and timeline and we’ll put together a real number. Call 800-611-2201 or fill out the form above.
Sometimes a long-distance move doesn’t land cleanly, your new place isn’t ready, the closing date shifted, or not everything is making the trip right away. Our storage facility in Woburn is literally next door to Waltham, your belongings go from our truck into storage and back out again when you’re ready. Starting at $89/month with 24-hour surveillance and climate control. Same team, no separate vendor, no driving across town.
Long-distance slots fill up fast, especially May through September. Give us at least 4–6 weeks notice, more if possible.
long-distance pricing reflects volume; less moving means a more accurate and lower quote

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.

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!

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!
