Fitton Moving & Storage is a Fitchburg, MA mover that describes itself as a third-generation, family-owned business founded in 1945 — though the Better Business Bureau's own profile for the same company lists a 1988 start date, a discrepancy worth knowing about. It carries a BBB A+ grade and accreditation, and the BBB profile lists a business license number issued by the state's Transportation Division. On Google, it holds a 4.9★ average from 22 ratings, and several recent reviews describe sizeable jobs handled carefully. Eric and his crew packed and moved 4,500 pounds of household goods in under seven hours for a military overseas move, with the reviewer saying they never felt worried about their belongings. Another recent review describes a two-day, two-state job — a pack-up in Massachusetts on a Thursday and an unload in Maine the next day — that came in on the estimate the crew had given. Not every account is glowing. A recent review describes a short local move that ran 4.5 hours against a 3-hour estimate; the customer credited awkward stairs as a factor but still came away unimpressed. A separate, undated Better Business Bureau review is more serious — it describes a job Fitton outsourced to another company that arrived late, damaged items, and left work unfinished. It's a real complaint worth asking about, even without a date attached. For a local move or a larger interstate one, this crew has a solid recent run of reviews behind it — just ask directly whether your move will be handled by Fitton's own crew or a subcontractor.
We got a quote from Fitton after seeing them recommended several times in a local Facebook group. We booked with them as hourly prices were similar to others but they had only a 1 hr minimum. As we were only doing a partial move 10 minutes away and hoped to keep it quick, we scheduled for 2 movers as advised by the owner (rather than 3). It took 4.5 hours to move a few rooms worth of furniture after the quote estimated 3 hours. While we acknowledge that our house had awkward stairs that contributed, we were not very impressed with the overall experience. One mover took a weird step 30 minutes into loading and spent a lot of time out at the truck recovering. We did not know how to handle this in the moment and waited to bring it up with Dave afterwards - of course we don't want anyone getting hurt, but when you're paying by the hour and only one person is doing most of the moving, that's not great. When my husband paid at the end, they only took off 15 minutes to account for the delays. When we brought this up with Dave, the response was basically that it was our word against theirs as no injury was reported. They also lost a pillow from our loveseat, and some wood furniture had rainspots and minor damage. We will use other movers in the future.
1000% recommend! This move was a huge job, and the team was absolutely amazing from start to finish. They were professional, respectful, hardworking, and took great care of all our belongings. Everything was handled with care, and they made what could have been a stressful day so much easier. I couldn't be happier with their service and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable moving company!
Just wanted to write a quick thanks to the Fitton crew. We had a very thoughtful pack up on Thursday in Massachusetts and a very efficient unload on Friday in Maine. The estimate was accurate. I am very appreciative of the care and work done by the crew of Lewis, Mike and Eric!!
Eric and his team assisted me with a military overseas move. They all were especially professional, efficient, and packed/moved every single item in my house with 100% care. They packed over 4,500 pounds of house hold goods in under 7 hours, there was not a time where I felt worried about my house hold goods, and I would highly recommend working with this company especially Eric (Lead) and his crew of professionals!
Mike, Shaq, and Brandon were great! "5/5 stars. From start to finish, the team was professional, efficient, and super careful. They made our move stress free. Highly recommend Fitton!
