J. Bresnahan Co. is a Haverhill mover with only two written reviews on file, and both are critical. In a 2026 review, a customer says the crew arrived two hours late, made rude comments about the home they were moving out of, and added a fee for moving television sets that was never discussed upfront. In a 2023 review, another customer describes being charged a packing fee despite having already boxed, taped and labeled everything themselves, and says the movers didn't help disassemble furniture. Google shows two different overall figures for the business — 3.8 stars from 8 ratings on one listing and 5 stars from a single rating on another — with no written detail behind either number. Anyone hiring here should get a full, itemized quote in writing before moving day, including exactly what counts as an extra charge.
I hired these guys last year. They showed up two hours late and made rude comments about the home I was moving out of. They also added extra fees for moving items like my TVs, which I would have been happy to move myself if I had been consulted beforehand. To top it off, my TVs were scuffed during the move. Overall, these guys added a lot of unnecessary stress to what was already a difficult day. I recommend looking elsewhere.
I recently used this company for my move, and I must express my disappointment with their service. Despite having packed everything into boxes, containers, and bags – all taped and labeled – I was still charged a packing fee. Moreover, the movers didn't assist with disassembling my joint platform bed, which requires no tools and is a quick task. I had to handle this myself, including lifting and moving the mattress. The service I received felt dishonest and lacked the professionalism I expected. Potential customers should be aware and ensure clear communication about fees and services rendered to avoid similar experiences.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from J. Bresnahan Co.. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
