Gentle Giant Moving Company

Gentle Giant Moving Company runs a Marshfield dispatch branch covering the South Shore, from Cohasset and Hingham down to Scituate and Duxbury, an office the company says has served Plymouth County since 2015 after relocating from Plymouth. Larry O'Toole is named as the owner, and the crews handle everything from a single-item pickup to multi-day whole-house relocations, plus packing, storage, piano moving, and specialty items like fine art. The reviews that stand out are the hard ones: in a July 2025 review, a homeowner described a three-day move of elderly parents through a packed, humid basement, with four different crews rotating in and working nonstop through the heat with a can-do attitude and no break but lunch. Another described packing and delivering a load through torrential rain two days apart, still protecting the floors and cleaning up after. Fragile and awkward pieces come up often too: a grandfather clock moved with care in a November 2025 review, and a 60-year-old family heirloom handled without incident in an August 2026 review. What repeats across the record is how many customers come back. One reviewer counted their sixth move in ten years, always with Gentle Giant. Another has used the company for 25 years, from a full house move down to helping a daughter move into her first apartment, and called the service just as strong both times. Crew members get named by first name again and again across reviews, Chuck, Jake, Connor, Matt, suggesting a stable team rather than rotating day labor. Pricing comes up rarely, but when it does the story is consistent: reviewers in 2025 and 2026 describe estimates that held, with one calling the final bill close to what was quoted and another noting the job finished under the low end of the estimate. Nearly all of the 101 Google ratings are five stars, and the detailed accounts line up with that: no damaged items, no missed windows, no pushback described anywhere. Gentle Giant is a solid call for a South Shore move of real weight, a full house, a piano, a family heirloom, given how consistently its crews are described handling exactly that kind of job; ask about scheduling early since repeat customers clearly book them again and again.
