The Cost of Moving Services in Salem, MA

This was our 3rd time using Classic American Movers. They have never failed to impress us with their professionalism, positive attitude, and friendliness. Clearly experienced they consistently move items using their heads, not relying just on strength. They will see the job through to completion without constantly watching the clock. We highly recommend Classic American Movers.

Adrian, Jonathan and Joanne were excellent. They worked hard and non-stop. They were able to accommodate our need for an extra hour. They were super friendly and even at the end when we needed to do a last bit of rearranging to fit in a couple super heavy items, they were will and able to help. Definitely would use them again if I could!

Heavy Foot Movers Profile Image

Joe and Stephen arrived as scheduled and unpacked my container very efficiently. They had to handle things delicately, too, as the movers I hired at the loading stage didn’t do a great job of packing so things shifted a lot during its travel across country. But they made sure no additional damage was done. They were extremely personable and I’d hire them again.

My team of Good Guys showed up on time, finished packing 2 pods in less than 2 hours, handled my belongings with great care, and were polite, respectful and easy to work with.
