Big Guy Movers is a Lynn, MA moving company that says it's been in business around 9 to 10 years — its own website and its Thumbtack profile give slightly different counts — running with about 6 employees. Its five on-file reviews, all from 2022 and 2023, point the same direction: careful, fast work on the kind of moves people stress about. In a late-2022 review, a two-person team cleared a full storage-unit move — every box, in town — in under three hours, calling it professional and punctual. A 2023 review described the crew safely delivering heavy pavers for a backyard project. And in a review from the end of 2022, a first-time mover hiring on short notice for a September apartment move called the price the cheapest she found, and said the crew arriving a bit late — attributed to the drive over — was the only real snag in an otherwise smooth job. Thumbtack's aggregate leans the same way: 4.5 stars over 10 ratings, 80% of them five-star. One of the ten did land at one star, though nothing in the record explains what happened there. Thumbtack also lists a background check on staff member Kenneth Leslie. Beyond moving, the company's Thumbtack listing and its own site both mention packing and unpacking, junk removal, and light demolition work — none of which shows up in the reviews on file, so it's worth confirming directly if that's the job. Big Guy Movers reads like a fit for a straightforward local or short-notice move where speed and a fair price matter more than a long paper trail; check current pricing and who's on the crew before booking.
