The Specialty Layer Behind Boston Moves
Greater Boston packs some of the country's most demanding moves into a small, old city. Life sciences companies fill Kendall Square and the Seaport, the Longwood Medical Area runs hospitals and research labs side by side, universities move departments every summer, and the Route 128 corridor is lined with tech and biotech campuses. Downtown, the streets are narrow, parking is scarce, and many buildings were never designed for a freight elevator.
Relo Solutions Group gives your company the crews for the work that falls outside a standard move. Our Boston hub supports partners with FF&E installation and final mile logistics, and we bring our complex equipment, technical decommissioning, and export crating teams to Boston jobs as well. We work behind your account, under your branding, and on your invoice, so your client deals with your company from start to finish.
Why Boston Movers Bring Us In
Built for tight access: Crews plan around narrow streets, street occupancy permits, small elevators, and limited loading time.
Ready for labs and hospitals: We follow the access, documentation, and handling rules life sciences and healthcare sites set.
One partner for specialty work: Installation, equipment, crating, and decommissioning come from one team instead of several subcontractors.
Your brand, start to finish: Our crews work as part of your team, and your client never deals with a third name.

The kinds of Boston jobs moving companies and relocation providers hand to us most often.
Office move in the Seaport
A moving company wins a corporate move between two Seaport buildings. Our FF&E crew breaks down and rebuilds workstations and meeting rooms after hours, so staff start Monday in a working office. See our Boston FF&E installation.
Lab relocation in Kendall Square
A relocation provider is moving a biotech team between two Cambridge buildings. After the client's team prepares the instruments, our crew packs, moves, and places them, with condition photos at every step. See our complex equipment service.
Department move at a Longwood institution
A mover is handling a research department moving floors and buildings. We plan around hospital access rules, escort requirements, and tight delivery windows. See our complex equipment service.
White-glove delivery to a Back Bay brownstone
A long-distance carrier needs a crew for the last leg. We secure the street permit, hand carry up narrow stairs, place each piece, and remove the packing. See our Boston final mile logistics.
Server room shutdown on Route 128
A company consolidating offices is retiring a server room in Waltham. Our crew takes down racks, tracks every asset, and moves or clears it for disposition. See our technical decommissioning service.
Export crate for equipment leaving Boston
A mover's commercial client is shipping equipment overseas. We build ISPM-15 compliant crates on site so the shipment is ready for the port. See our export crating service.

What Boston Sites Ask For
Most delays on Boston jobs come from access and permits, not the work itself. We line these up before the crew arrives.
Street occupancy permit
Reserving curb space for the truck in Boston requires a permit and posted signs, especially in older neighborhoods.
Certificate of insurance
Office buildings, campuses, and hospitals want a COI naming the building and management company before any crew is allowed in.
Loading dock and elevator windows
Downtown and Seaport buildings book docks and freight elevators by the hour, so the crew has to match the window.
Site access and badging
Labs, hospitals, and secure facilities often need names in advance, badges, or an escort for the whole job.
Lab and handling protocols
Life sciences and healthcare sites may require documentation or decontamination sign-off before equipment moves.
Historic building protection
Brownstones and older buildings need floor, banister, and door frame protection, and some items must be hand carried.

Boston Relocation Support FAQs
Do you work directly with end clients in Boston?
No. We support moving companies and relocation providers. Our crews work behind your account, under your brand, and your client deals with your company throughout.
Which Boston services do you provide?
FF&E installation and final mile logistics have dedicated Boston pages, and we also bring complex equipment, technical decommissioning, export crating, and our other specialty services to Boston jobs.
Can your crews work in Kendall Square labs and Longwood hospitals?
Yes. We follow the site's access, documentation, and handling rules. Your client's team or the manufacturer handles disconnection, decontamination, and reconnection where required.
Do you handle street occupancy permits?
Yes. We plan the truck location with you and arrange the permit and posted signs needed to reserve curb space in Boston.
Can you work in brownstones and older buildings?
Yes. We protect floors, banisters, and door frames, plan for narrow stairs, and hand carry items where a dolly will not fit.
Can you work around September 1?
Yes, but plan early. September 1 is Boston's busiest moving day, so permits, trucks, and crews need to be booked weeks ahead.
Do you work in winter?
Yes. We plan around snow emergencies and parking bans, keep a backup date in mind, and clear walkways and ramps before loading.
Can you work after hours or on weekends?
Yes. Many office, lab, and hospital moves run after hours, and we schedule crews for those windows.
Which areas around Boston do you cover?
Boston neighborhoods, Cambridge and Somerville, the inner suburbs, the Route 128 corridor, and the North and South Shore.
