Metrosexual Movers is a full-service residential and commercial moving company based in Arlington, Massachusetts, run by owner Joe LaRoche since 1995 — a 31-year track record according to its Better Business Bureau file. In a 2011 feature, a local Arlington newspaper described how LaRoche, an Arlington native, coined the company's name as a play on the word "metrosexual." The company carries an A+ grade with the Better Business Bureau, though it has not sought BBB accreditation. There is no published customer review history or complaint count on file yet, so a homeowner has little independent word-of-mouth to weigh pricing, responsiveness, or day-of service against. Worth a call for a local move in the Arlington area given the long tenure — confirm current rates, availability, and references directly since the independent record is still thin.
“For Arlington native Joe LaRoche, the term “metrosexual” is a useful moniker for his moving company.”
