The team handles local moving, long distance moving, commercial moving, packing, storage, labor only jobs, college moving, senior moving, piano moving, hoisting, parking permits, trash removal and moving supplies. Horizon states it is not a dispatch service or a broker - every crew member is theirs and every truck is theirs, with movers trained in-house and background-checked rather than hired off an app the morning of your move. Local moves are charged hourly with a three-hour minimum, long distance moves are flat rate based on inventory and destination, and the company advertises no hidden fees and no mileage surprises. Free video and on-site estimates are offered, furniture padding plus floor and door protection are standard on every job, and Horizon is a fully licensed interstate carrier with every crew member insured on every move. The crew also files No Parking Orders with the City of Boston on your behalf, and serves Greater Boston neighborhoods and cities including Allston, Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Brighton, Brookline, Cambridge, Charlestown, Fenway, Jamaica Plain, Roxbury, Somerville, South End, Seaport, Watertown and Newton.

FAQs
How is the cost of the move calculated?

Do you charge for estimates?
No. Horizon Boston Movers offers free video and on-site estimates. Fill out the online form or call (617) 991-7677 with your date, locations and move size, and the team sends back a detailed estimate.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Horizon Boston Movers is a fully licensed interstate carrier and every crew member is insured on every move. The company carries full liability insurance and can provide a certificate of insurance to your building manager before move day.
Do you handle Boston parking permits?
Yes. The team files No Parking Orders with the City of Boston on your behalf and it is included with your move, covering Boston neighborhoods including Allston, Back Bay, Beacon Hill and the South End.
Do you offer packing services?
Yes. Full packing, partial packing and fragile-only packing are available, the crew brings all materials, and packing can be added to any local, long distance or commercial move when you get your quote.
Do you offer storage?
Yes. Secure, climate-controlled storage is available at the Boston facility for both short and long-term needs, and storage can be combined with your move or booked separately.
Can you move a piano or other specialty items?
Yes. Horizon has a dedicated piano moving service for uprights, baby grands and grand pianos, and also handles safes, artwork, antiques and other specialty items with appropriate equipment and techniques.
How far in advance should I book?
For most moves, two to four weeks in advance is sufficient. Same-week bookings are often possible outside of peak season, and if you are moving on or around September 1st in Boston you should book as early as possible because that date fills up weeks ahead of time.
