“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.”
Packing is where most moves go wrong. Boxes that aren’t properly packed shift in transit. Furniture that isn’t wrapped gets scratched in the hallway. Items that aren’t labeled correctly end up in the wrong room and have to be moved twice. Getting it right isn’t complicated, but it takes time, the right materials, and a method that doesn’t cut corners.
Smart Penny Moving® offers two packing options for Cambridge customers:
Cambridge apartments are compact. Staircases are narrow. Many buildings have rules about moving hours, meaning your crew has a limited window to get everything out. The more organized and properly packed your belongings are before the truck arrives, the faster and smoother the entire operation goes.
Our crew brings all the materials, the right size boxes for every item type, packing paper, bubble wrap, stretch wrap, furniture blankets, and corner protectors. Nothing gets loaded onto our truck unprotected. Everything is labeled by room so unloading at your new Cambridge address is efficient and nothing ends up in the wrong place.
Choosing the right packing service depends on your individual needs and preferences. Anyone looking to simplify their move, professional packing services can significantly reduce stress and save time. Remember to discuss your requirements with the moving company and understand the scope of services they offer in each category. This way, you can select the packing solution that best suits your situation.
Everything in your Cambridge home or apartment packed by our crew. We bring all materials, work room by room, and have you fully loaded and ready to go. Best for customers who want to hand off the entire process and focus on everything else that comes with a move.
You’ve handled most of it, we take care of what’s left. Whether it’s one difficult room, a collection of fragile items, or the furniture that needs proper wrapping, we step in where you need us and leave the rest as you’ve packed it.
Prefer to pack yourself? Order boxes, tape, packing paper, bubble wrap, and mattress covers through our materials page and have them ready before moving day.
We clean up when we're done, empty boxes and packing materials get hauled away at the end of the job. Every box is clearly labeled by room and contents so finding things at your new Cambridge address is straightforward, not a guessing game.
Don’t forget to check out our packing tips page and use our printable moving checklist. If you have any questions about the moving process, please refer to our FAQs page.
Your request has been received and a move specialist is reviewing your information. We’ll contact you shortly regarding your move details and availability.

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.

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!
