Flash Moving & Storage - Boston Movers

Flash Moving & Storage has built one of the most reviewed records in Boston moving — 374 Google ratings, plus near-perfect scores on Angi (98), HomeAdvisor (80), and Best Pick Reports (227), all sitting at or near 5.0★, alongside a BBB A+ accreditation. The volume alone would be notable; the consistency across five separate platforms is what stands out. What people describe hiring them for is careful, communicative work on the physically hard parts of a move: fitting a couch through a stairwell it didn't look like it would clear, disassembling and reassembling furniture, packing fragile items without breaking them. In a 2021 review, one customer recalled the same set of mirrored furniture pieces — already broken and replaced on a prior move — coming through a second move without a scratch. Recent months keep the same shape: 43 reviews in the last six months, all positive, with the same names recurring (Alex, Tim, Blake, Viktor coordinating the scheduling). One account complicates the picture. In a 2024 review, a customer wrote that the crew asked them to leave a five-star rating and photo while watching over their shoulder — and that the review didn't reflect what actually happened: a billing process the customer called a nightmare, movers returning after-hours to correct a mistake, a second billing error found an hour later, and an unresolved overcharge of roughly $200. It's a single account, but a specific and detailed one, and it sits oddly against a review base that is otherwise almost uniformly five stars across every platform — worth keeping in mind when weighing how spotless the rest of the record looks. For a standard move — packing, careful handling, tight stairwells and doorways — the overwhelming pattern is a crew that shows up on time and gets it done without damage. Before booking, it's worth asking upfront how billing works and getting the total in writing, given the one detailed account of a billing dispute on file.
