One name carries this company's reviews: Peter. He answers the phone, quotes the job, and turns up on moving day — and across eighty reviews stretching back to 2021 customers keep naming him, alongside Blanca in the office and crews they name too: Jose, Christian, Fabrice, Denzel, Matt. A 2025 customer called them a family-owned business, and that is how the record reads. The through-line is rescue work. These are the movers people find when someone else has fallen through. In January 2022 a customer wrote that their realtor-recommended movers cancelled the morning of a cross-country job, and Peter secured a 26-foot truck and worked alongside his crew that night. In February 2026 another described a last-minute request answered at short notice for a price they called unbelievable. The distance work is real too — a household moved from Massachusetts to South Carolina in May 2026, an interstate job in June 2026 where the furniture came wrapped and the bed was reassembled at the other end, a 1,600-mile cross-country move with two stops at each end finished inside three days according to a 2023 review. They also take the small odd jobs bigger firms decline: a business relocated from Salem to Andover in July 2026, furniture carried between floors inside one house in August 2026, a single piece collected from a seller's second floor after a Facebook Marketplace purchase in November 2025. What to press on is damage, paperwork and what happens when something goes wrong. A July 2026 customer said they were charged significantly more than their quote, never received the receipt they asked for twice, and found a scratched basement door and a broken TV stand and suitcase. A February 2026 customer was disappointed by a second job after a good first one: a trailer too small for the load, five extra car loads of their own, and an $850 desk damaged beyond repair. An August 2025 customer said several pieces came away with dings and scratches and that two months later nobody had come to look at them. In June 2025 a customer said the crew walked out mid-job over Memorial Day weekend after the job was underpriced. Two customers go much further: in 2022 and again in 2024, reviewers alleged that items were taken from their storage unit, the 2024 writer saying they filed a break-and-entering report with the Lynn police. Those are allegations, and nothing on file resolves them. For a last-minute, long-distance or awkward move, the depth of praise here is genuine. Get the quote, the inventory and the crew size in writing, photograph your furniture before it is loaded, ask exactly what valuation coverage applies and how a damage claim is handled, and insist on a receipt on the day.
“I desperately needed movers to bring furniture from Woodstock, NY to Watertown, MA after the original company I selected dropped out less than a week before the move date, and I am so lucky that Mimi's was available and willing to pick up the contract. They were friendly, professional, and very comfortable handling my furniture, which included a glass”
My husband and I are older and I wanted to move some expensive furniture from the basement to the first floor this furniture was heavy five peaces in all. I also needed chairs moved and a china cabinet moved from the first floor to the second floor. I decided to find a mover who would do this since we just could not. We researched many different places and called a few the prices were really up there! we then called Mimi’s. The person who call us was Peter, very nice gave us a reasonable price and we set up a date and time. He sent three men who were very nice and respectful of my home they came in we told them what needed to be done and they waisted no time within an hour it was all done. They covered the furniture and were very careful with moving the furniture. I cannot say enough good things about this company. I highly Recommend Mimi’s if you need a mover or like me you just have furniture that needs moving in your home .
I wasn’t happy with my experience. I asked for a receipt to be emailed to me the day of service and also over the phone about a week later and never received one. I was charged significantly more than my quote. My basement door where I moved to got a long scratch across it and wasn’t informed about until I noticed it myself. My TV stand has a piece missing from it that they broke. They broke a suitcase of mine, they are not gentle with your stuff. The day of the move I left 2 wallets worth something to me containing personal information cards, and a small amount of cash in old bills in my nightstand. Then after the move I realized they were gone from my nightstand. Peter was rude on the phone, instead of working with the situation he said the people who did my move was his relatives and close family friends. Saying “1000% wasn’t them” and basically saying I was lying. I will never recommend this unprofessional company to anyone.
The best! I was completely unpacked and moving out of a stressful situation and the team rolled with it, packed and moved on the fly and made it an overall wonderful experience! Highly recommend.
If you’re looking for movers, I highly recommend Mimi’s Moving. Peter and the entire team are absolutely amazing! They went above and beyond to help me declutter my home before putting it on the market. They hauled away trash, took donations, and moved items into storage to make my home ready to sell. After my house sold, they came back to help clear out everything that was left and carefully moved it all into my new home. They were professional, hardworking, efficient, and incredibly kind throughout the entire process. Moving is stressful, but they made everything so much easier. I truly couldn’t have done it without them. I’m so grateful for all of their help and would recommend Mimi’s Moving to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy moving company.
They did a great job helping us move our entire business from Salem to Andover. They are the best mover we have ever used! Highly recommended.
