We also have options for electronic inventories that include itemized photographs of each of your items.
Moving can be stressful, so leave the hard work to us! We’ll come the day before your move and pack everything for you. When you hire Gentle Giant to pack your valuable belongings there is the added guarantee that your items will arrive safe and sound at the other end. We take the necessary care and precision required to pack everything from crystal stemware to your baseball card collection like they were our own.

Fantastic crews bth in NY and Massachusetts. We had used Gentle Giant in the past and would not use any other mover.
The movers were exceptional! They arrived on time, moved furniture and breakables from two different locations 100 miles apart, and delivered everything to a third location with care, accuracy, and efficiency. I am more than delighted with them, and when it’s time to unload the storage locker into which they put everything, I will definitely use them again.
Tony and Isiah did an outstanding job and were great to work with. They communicated with me throughout the morning, notifying me that they were running ahead of schedule since an earlier job finished early, and then staying in touch to work with me to figure out the optimal arrival time. Once we started, they made short work of moving everything down four flights of stairs and packing it very safely and strategically in the truck I had rented. I made it to Maine with no damage and even took the time to write a Yelp review praising their work.
The movers were so incredibly professional, polite and considerate.
The movers were so prompt and professional and very careful.
Crews were excellent.
We loved our crew.
Great group of guys. Professional, efficient, friendly. Very proactive. Despite the horrendous heat they did an amazing job! Can’t say enough good things about them. This was my third experience with your company and would refer them without hesitation.
It was SUCH a hot day, and the guys did an absolutely amazing job moving me into my new home!! The GG team was TERRIFIC: on time, really nice, careful and mindful of all my things. I’ve used GG for every move I’ve had since 2011, and I have never EVER been disappointed. In addition, I had to reschedule this move multiple times for a couple of reasons. The customer service team is wildly flexible and understanding. I truly don’t hope I’m moving any time soon, but if I do, it’s Gentle Giant all the way!
All three movers were extremely professional, patient and kind. Tony was very organized and flexible to my changing requests. Gus and Jay were efficient and careful with our possessions. We had a baby in the house, and the movers were very accommodating, waiting to move his items last, and trying to keep the noise down. This was a great experience and I’ll highly recommend the team to anyone who is planning to move.
