American Moving & Installation Inc. - Commercial Moving Company

American Moving & Installation is a Hanover-based commercial mover, not a household-moving outfit, and the company facilities managers in Greater Boston call for office relocations, lab moves, and warehouse work. It says it was founded in March 2009 by Kathleen Rowell, growing from a home-based operation into a 100,000-square-foot Hanover warehouse, and describes itself as Massachusetts' only WBENC-certified, 100% woman-owned union moving company, with affiliations spanning the Massachusetts Supplier Diversity Office, IFMA, BOMA, and the Massachusetts Movers Association. Its small set of scored reviews, all dated 2021-2024, single out corporate and institutional relocation work — matching a website that lists life-science, healthcare, and hospitality clients — and describe the crews as on schedule and easy to work with. On Google it holds 4.9 stars from a dozen ratings, and moveBuddha put its review record at roughly 100% positive across about 18 reviews. Its BBB file carries an A+ grade, though the company hasn't sought formal BBB accreditation. One independent scorer, GreatGuysMove, rates it lower at 7.18 out of 10 — a softer read worth weighing against the otherwise consistent praise. BrokerSnapshot's carrier-safety listing shows an active USDOT registration matching FMCSA records, with 12 years of active DOT status, though no inspection has been logged there since June 2025 — worth a quick check if that paperwork matters for your project. More relevant for most homeowners: everything in its own materials and reviews points to commercial and institutional relocation — corporate offices, labs, hospitality build-outs — with nothing describing residential household moves. It's a reasonable call for a business relocation, office move, or warehousing need in Greater Boston from a long-standing, women-owned union outfit, but anyone moving a house should look elsewhere and confirm upfront whether they take residential jobs at all.
