A gap between closings need not mean moving everything twice without a storage plan: in a February 2025 review, a customer moving from a condo to a house in Chatham said Eldredge & Bourne offered temperature-controlled storage in its Hyannis warehouse or coordination with Chatham Sun Self Storage. The customer described smooth moves, careful handling and communication throughout, with Lauren preparing the estimate. They said the slightly higher price than two competing quotes was worthwhile. Eldredge & Bourne describes itself as a family-owned Cape Cod moving and storage company founded in 1918, with three generations of moving-management experience. Its contact page names Lauren Connolly and Jim Connolly as owners and Marc Goode as owner and operations manager. The company advertises local Cape Cod moves, Nantucket moves using the Steamship Authority ferry, and nationwide and international relocation as an Allied Van Lines agent. It also offers receiving and inventory services for interior designers. BBB lists locations in Hyannis and Orleans, gives the business an A+ grade, and says it is not BBB-accredited. Google shows 4.4 stars from 18 ratings. Older customers also praised the moving crew and office. In November 2021, a reviewer described a professional experience from the front office through the move crew and confidence in the handling of their possessions. The ASD Team wrote in October 2023 that it used the company for moving and storage needs and recommended its project service. Pricing drew a specific complaint in February 2026. That customer said the move itself went well and the staff were respectful and cooperative, but the bill was 20% higher than the quote. The customer's praise for the crew accompanied a clear warning about the validity of the pricing.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Eldredge & Bourne Moving. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.

“Honorably discharged in 1946, he returned to Cape Cod, where he went to work for the family firm Eldredge & Bourne Moving and Storage as Allied Van Lines’ youngest driver. According to his sons Thomas C. Bourne and William E. Bourne, he logged more than 90,000 miles.”
“He also got the Eldredge & Bourne moving company to donate a used piano to the school.”
“Jim Connolly has been flying with Cape Air since the beginning. He owns Eldredge & Bourne Moving and Storage and flies to Nantucket every week. “We need as much time on the island to work as we can,” he said.”
Eldridge and Bourne provided good service with my move, the staff were respectful and very cooperative. The unpleasant surprise was my bill was 20% higher than the quote!!! If you plan on using them be very careful about the validity of their pricing
If you care about your furniture and your sanity, then you should hire Eldredge & Bourne to move your stuff. We moved from a condo into a house in Chatham. There was some downtime between the closings and they offered to store our stuff in their temperature controlled warehouse in Hyannis or work with Chatham Sun Self Storage's climate controlled storage. I am so grateful that they had those options available. The moves went smoothly and me and my wife weren't stress balls. I'd recommend them to anyone who has to move houses on Cape Cod. Lauren did our estimate and the tiny bit more we paid over the other 2 quotes, was well worth it in how they handled our stuff and the level of communication throughout the process. Plus she is fun. Go with the professionals.
We use Elderedge & Bourne for all our moving and storage needs. They have an amazing team and provide us with excellent service for our projects. I would highly recommend! The ASD Team
These people were great. Super efficient and professional. Would highly recommend.
Professional and great experience all around from front office to the move crew. Total confidence in the handling of our possessions.
