Burke Moving Company is a Revere outfit run by owner Charlie Burke, and the thing that shows up again and again across more than a hundred reviews is speed without carelessness — crews that move fast but still wrap, pad, and place things exactly where asked. It's the kind of company people call back: several reviewers mention this being their second, third, or fourth time using them. The volume here is real: 117 reviews dating back to 2022, virtually all five stars, and Google separately shows 5.0 from 124 ratings. Recent reviews describe the same pattern that runs through the older ones — a last-minute call answered the night before and handled the next day at a good rate, a crew that stays until furniture is placed exactly right rather than just dropped off. In a 2022 review, a customer described contacting eight different moving companies before reaching Charles, and being the only one who answered the phone like he wanted the job; that kind of responsiveness is a theme people keep bringing up. The jobs on record go beyond the standard local move. A 2023 review described a winding staircase that had always been a problem for furniture, handled without a scratch; a 2024 review recalled a house full of antiques and a packed basement moved without damage. Burke has also taken on full-house packing jobs — a 2025 review described an entire household packed, moved, and reassembled between Danvers and Rowley — and at least one interstate move from Massachusetts to Georgia, in a 2022 review, that stayed on schedule despite a slow start loading. There isn't much to flag. One review, from June 2026, calls the experience unprofessional but gives no specifics — it's the lone outlier in an otherwise consistent record. A Reddit thread from a prospective customer cites roughly $200 an hour for a three-mover crew with a truck, worth confirming directly since the quoted rate isn't Burke's own. For a local or even interstate move — especially one with awkward stairs, antiques, or a tight timeline — the reviewed history here is deep, specific, and consistent; there's little reason for hesitation beyond getting a firm quote up front.
“Burke in Revere. $200/hr for 3 movers and a truck”
“Burke Movers in revere were excellent all around, and cheaper than the other bids I got.”
What a pleasant experience using Burke Moving Company today. I called the owner Charlie last night and he agreed to do a last minute move for me without hesitation and also at an amazing rate. If you are looking for professional, personable, trustworthy movers, these are your guys. Not only are they fast, they are meticulous to ensure all your property is carefully wrapped and handled with kid gloves. I have had terrible experiences in the past with moving companies, I will always use them and highly recommend. If you want Outstanding Customer Service and fantastic service this is what they offer.
Can’t give this company enough credit - professional, hard working, super competent and fast. They take the horror out of moving:) I submitted for an estimate in early May 2026. Pat came to house days later. Burke did 2 moves for us, 5/19 and 6/1. First move was with Ederson, Steve & Tommy. Second move was with Ederson and Vance. They were so nice, and very cheerful with awesome energy! This estimate is just a basic guideline - they are super flexible! If there is less than estimate (there is a minimum) they charge less; rarely more! Everything is wrapped up - so chests & drawers didn’t need to be emptied! THANK YOU BURKE MOVING
Horrific service and totally unprofessional. Sharing my honest feedback so others can make an informed decision.
