- MMMatthew Mason5 days ago5.0We moved from Arlington to Malden and it was a breeze. Our crew of: Wally, Elon, Abai and Aibar were fast professional and efficient. It was a stress free move. Highly recommend!!
- JTJonathan TuMay 11, 20265.0I got help moving to a new apartment from Flash, and they were great! Alex and Quvvat were our movers, and they were very efficient and professional. Nothing was damaged, and more than once we were impressed by how much they were able to transport safely in one trip. Would definitely use Flash again the next time we need to move!
- JMJonas MasterMay 10, 20265.0Excellent service. They were prompt, communicated very well, moved a large 3BR house in good time, were extra careful with fragile items, and did it all at a fair price. Would definitely work with them again. Big thank you to the team - Wally, Alex, Eric, Elon and Bob. All were excellent! Highly recommend.
- ATandrew tMay 10, 20265.0Fantasy job from the crew. Flash Moving made my move seamless from start to finish. The crew showed up right on time, worked efficiently, and kept me informed throughout the entire process. Great to work with during the quoting process — transparent, detailed, and professional. Highly recommend!
- SGSuzanne GawronskiMay 6, 20265.0Flash Moving deserves more than 5 stars. The three men who moved me were friendly, professional, and skilled….and it wasn’t an easy move….From the third floor of an old house with a VERY steep and narrow stairway. They were efficient and took great care with my furniture…no damages. The estimate I was given was accurate. I have moved 13 times, so I should know a great mover. Thank you , Flash!
Frequently Asked Questions About Flash Moving & Storage
What types of customers have you worked with?
We work with every type! From your everyday person and his family to military personnel, government officials, corporations and businesses. As always we will honor any and all clients anonymity at their discretion.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, we are fully licensed with the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities and we carry Cargo, Motor Vehicle, and General Liability Insurance.
How would I know if a moving company is legitimate?
According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), a growing number of complaints have been filed against movers lately – many of which are due to the “fraudulent practices… of rogue movers.” Minimize the risk of moving-day delays, damages, inflated charges, or loss of possessions by hiring legal, certified movers.
If your Employees are injured while working in my home, am I responsible for their medical bills?
No. Our company carries workers compensation as required by law, and we are totally responsible for any work-related injuries to our moving team during the performance of their duties. We do not use day labor or casual workers.
What do I need to do to prepare my appliances for the move?
The moving crew will wrap these items in moving blankets to protect them on the truck. However, you should make certain that your dishwasher, microwave, and washing machine are empty. Additionally, movers are not electricians or plumbers – you need to arrange for the appropriate professional to disconnect your washer, chandeliers, and refrigerator from any electric and/or water connection. Most importantly, movers are not licensed to disconnect gas.
Can the crew members arrange the furniture to my liking in my new home?
Absolutely. Just instruct the crew members on where you want the specifics placed and we can help. Having a plan in mind before arriving at your new home can save time and money.
Are your quotes binding?
Our quotes are general estimates. They are non-binding and merely an approximation of the cost and time estimated for your move. You are not required to sign the estimate as the move may go over or under the estimated time.
Do I need to empty my dresser drawers?
Please empty all dresser drawers, file cabinets and desk drawers. Remember that your furniture will have to be lifted and carried, so if it’s overstuffed and extra heavy it will be more difficult to handle. If the furniture has to be navigated through challenging obstacles, like a winding staircase, it’s usually best to remove everything, even the drawers, as it may be necessary to flip the furniture on its side or upside-down to get it through.
How do I change my address?
You can change your address with the US Post Office online. *Visit the website usps.com/move. *Follow the steps to fill out your change of address information with the post office.
What are the accepted payment methods?
*We accept all major credit cards, debit cards, and cash as forms of payment. *All balances are expected to be paid in-full at the time of service when the job is complete, excluding any deposits paid in advance *Please Note: Balances paid with either credit or debit cards will incur a 3% transaction fee.
Do I still need an estimate?
Every job is different and may require additional or alternative manpower, trucks, equipment, or services. We will be able to give you a more customized recommendation during your personal quote!
Do you also give quotes for long-distance moves?
Long-distance and nationwide cross-country moves are quoted on a case-by-case basis in a single all-inclusive flat rate price.
Do you have hidden fees or charges?
We pride ourselves on having no hidden fees and being all-inclusive, BUT we DO charge a one-time trip fee for every service. This is standard for the moving industry. However, ours is typically equal to just one additional hour of labor. It may be adjusted on a case-by-case basis, either less or more, depending on the service being requested and the customer/job location.
Do you require deposits?
Yes we do require a $100 deposit to secure your scheduled day/time and that it is completely deducted from your total. If you cancel your move with less than 7 business days notice, the deposit is forfeited. If you need to just reschedule, your deposit will follow you to the new date, we just ask for as much notice as possible so we may fill in that slot with another customer.
Do you do long-distance moves?
Yes! We are fully authorized/licensed by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety administration to transport and provide service on household goods shipments from one State to another.
What if I discover damaged or missing items?
Our team has been trained to work with utmost care and integrity, and we sure hope that will not be the case. However, if you do discover anything missing or damaged, please contact us as soon as possible. We strongly suggest you inspect all your items and furniture the day of the move.
Do I have to pay extra for a moving truck?
No, a moving truck is included in the flat hourly rate. There is not an additional fee for one of our 20 or 26 ft moving truck.
Can you give guaranteed pricing?
On Interstate moves, yes we absolutely can and always do! On moves between points, the Public Utility Commission requires that local moves be charged primarily on an hourly rate basis. We value your vote of confidence in our company with your hard-earned dollars. Therefore, we will estimate responsibly and with integrity. Our sales staff will go over time and cost scenarios for your move. There will be no surprises on your final bill with us.
How is the cost of my move calculated?
We have a standard hourly rate system based on number of movers requested (2 or 3) as well as day of the week requested (weekdays vs weekends) Plus a one-time destination/arrival fee that covers travel time to your residence, tolls, gas and travel time back to our warehouse. The hourly rate starts when the movers arrive at your place and it stops when the move is completed. And also we do charge for wrapping/packing materials based on actual usage. But you are welcome to buy your own and our team will use it.
Do I tip the movers?
Tipping is never expected, but always appreciated! Although our movers are trained to never ask for tips from customers, they are allowed to accept tips should customers feel inclined for the hard work they received. In regards to what amount to tip the movers, we encourage customers to tip whatever they feel is necessary for the job that was completed. *tips are given directly to the movers, and do not constitute as payment of the bill.
How far in advance should I schedule my move?
The earlier the better! 2-4 weeks is what we usually prefer, but if you plan on moving during our peak times which is summer, end of the month or a weekend, please call us 4-6 weeks before your planned date.
What should I keep with me on my moving day?
Keep with you anything you or your family will use on the day of your move with you. Common items include snacks, toilet paper, paper towel, phone chargers, a change of clothes, toothbrush/toothpaste, and your kids’ favorite toys. Additionally, medications, important paperwork (e.g., birth certificates and social security cards), and anything highly valuable or sentimental (jewelry, credit cards, bank account information, etc.) should be set aside. On your moving day, place these essential items in a box or bag that you’ll carry with you to your new home.
