Wakefield Moving & Storage, Inc.

Wakefield Moving & Storage is a Peabody, Massachusetts moving and logistics company that, by its own account, started in 1959 as a local moving outfit and grew into a large-scale New England operation. Today it's part of Tobin Scientific, which the company says gave it more than 600,000 square feet of storage and a 50-truck fleet, and its focus has shifted toward commercial and institutional clients — offices, universities, hospitals, and labs — with residential moving offered mainly as one option on its contact form. There isn't much of a public consumer review trail to go on: Google shows a 4-star average from just 10 ratings, and the Better Business Bureau lists the company as not accredited with no rating of its own, though it does confirm two Massachusetts locations (Peabody and Beverly) and names Randy Davekos as president. One LinkedIn post described the company as a long-running brand name in New England commercial moving. Worth noting: the company's site dates its founding to 1959, while its BBB record shows the current entity starting in 2004 — likely a reorganization or later incorporation rather than a fresh start, but the two dates don't line up. Given how institutional its current client base skews, a homeowner should ask directly whether residential moves are handled the same way as its commercial and lab relocations.
