## The honest read

White Glove Moving Service is a small, owner-operated mover out of Watertown — just two employees, run by Aleksei Kubachin — that's built a strong Thumbtack track record: current Top Pro status for 2025, 218 jobs booked, and a 4.9-star average from 123 ratings.

The five retrievable written reviews back that up with specifics. Movers are described as fast to respond and careful with furniture — one homeowner with a house full of large furniture noted nothing bumped a wall and everything arrived in perfect condition; another, moving a long distance, said belongings were delivered the very next day. A repeat customer who used Aleksei twice praised his knack for packing efficiently enough to fit a full 10-by-10 storage unit's worth of belongings without extra trips, and credited him with helping when she didn't think it could be done. Others called the pricing reasonable and the communication responsive right up to move day.

What to know before calling: the listing has a couple of small internal inconsistencies worth noting rather than worrying about — it states both '4 years in business' and, elsewhere on the same page, '3 years,' and one review's claimed distance (over 1,100 miles) doesn't match that job's own '500–1,000 miles' detail field. Neither points to anything wrong with the actual move; they read as directory data noise. Aleksei has passed a Thumbtack background check (completed March 2025); Massachusetts doesn't require a separate occupational license for household movers, so its absence here isn't a gap.

**Strengths:**
- Careful handling — reviewers repeatedly note no damage to belongings
- Fast response — quick to reply and confirm availability
- Efficient packing — fit a full storage unit without extra trips
- Responsive communication — answered questions right up to move day

**Where sources disagree:**
- The listing states both '4 years in business' and, in Thumbtack's own summary text, '3 years in business' — an internal tenure inconsistency on that one page
- One review's claimed move distance (over 1,100 miles) doesn't match that same job's '500 - 1,000 miles' detail field on the page — an internal inconsistency, not a customer complaint
