Burkhardt Bros

Great experience… and that says a lot because moving sucks. The rep came over to give us an estimate before I booked them (I was shopping around for quotes). Not only did he give me an estimate but also gave me some tips on how to save money with the move and getting organized for the move. Day of the move, three movers arrived on time and ready to work. They were careful with our old furniture and took apart our IKEA bunk beds with ease. They finished on time and came in under the original estimate… always a bonus.

An all around wonderful experience. I hired 3 men to move a piano from the basement up 3 flights of stairs. They were very careful in wrapping the piano, and moving anything in their way. Done within the time frame, no damages, and VERY courteous, respectful movers. I highly recommend them! ALSO, very reasonable rates! Much less than other «piano» movers that I googled!

I used Burkhardt recently to move my office. They were fantastic! The 3 young men showed up right on time (actually, a little early) and got right to work after we reviewed what was moving (only some off the office was moving.)
They were so careful with all of my things and were able to maneuver desks and work spaces into the tiny elevator.
When they moved me into my new, freshly painted office they did not leave one ding or mark on the walls. Even the doorway remained pristine. They reassembled whatever had to be disassembled to move, and made sure everything was where I wanted it.
They were finished in no time and the move came in under budget. They were very professional and I felt like my items were in very good hands.
I have used Gentle Giant in the past, but since I’m in the suburbs I always had to pay for them to sit in Boston traffic to get to me. No more. I will use Burkhardt for any future home or office moves.

We recently used Burkhardt movers for our move from our Duxbury Home into storage for 14 months, then to our new home. We were more than pleased at Burkhardt movers (AGAIN! As this was our fourth move with them.) Don who did the estimate, Carole in the office, the moving men (several are related to the Burkhardt family) and Dan Burkhardt. Dan is truly a man of integrity, is very efficient and conscientious about the family business. This is a family business with a well earned STERLING reputation. While moving is never FUN, Burkhardt eases the stress!

Burkhardt recently moved me between apartments in Boston. They did an excellent job. They used a small truck and 2 movers. The movers were very friendly and efficient and the move only took about 2 hours total. They made sure to ask which items I wanted moved (I had roomate’s belongings mixed in with mine), and where to put the larger pieces (mattress, desk, dresser, etc.). Everything was treated with care and I was never worried about items breaking or being mishandled. They made a process most people dread as enjoyable and easy as possible.
Definitely use Burkhardt if you want a hassle-​free move!

Burkhardt Bros. just packed and moved me from my home in Scituate ma. to
Woodstock Vt.
It was a complicated move. I had goods that needed to be delivered into the home
in Woodstock… some goods to be delivered into the barn and a few big
pieces to be delivered to an address in Scituate, ma.
Burkhardt did everything to perfection. No problem… You only need to say it once.
Everything was packed. wrapped and delivered .like it was museum quality goods.
Dan Burkhardt and crew are the best movers I have ever hired.(I am experienced. moved 16 times .long distances). Burkhardt Bro. movers … everyone of them. from Don who came out to give me an estimate to Carole in the office, Kevin, Alex, and Dan… everyone was such a pleasure to work with.
Dan never forgets anything. if you mention it he remembers… you do not want it packed. got it… want it on second floor. got it… packed last… got it…
Burkhardt Bros movers are a pleasure to work with. They are excellent movers.
I also found out that Dan delivered a hospital bed to my wonderful neighbor. and picked it… a hospital bed is a big deal… not like a regular bed… they are complicated.
Dan and company did it … no problem .
The thing is Dan and Company make it look so easy. It is not!!!
If you are moving this is the company to hire.
They are the best of the best.

WORST moving company ever! I requested a specific crew, NOPE did not get them. I moved ALL of my own boxes, they were just to move the furniture. They damaged a $ 4000 mattress and almost every piece of furniture has been damaged!
They do not know how to move high end mattresses! They refused to replace the mattress stating we opted for damages to be compensated at 60cents per pound which is no where near the cost to replace it! They wanted to compensate for damage to the mattress but ‘fix’ everything else. Really? I have to buy a new mattress for over $ 4000 and you get to give 60cents a pound for the mattress only and can ‘fix’ everything else? Well, after seeing how they moved everything I would hate to see how they ‘fix’ anything. They damaged over 3,450 POUNDS of furniture! Watch out with this company — they do not know how to move furniture and in the long run it cost us more money to buy a new mattress and have the other furniture they delivered repaired. They are not someone I would ever do business with again. Keep this in mind, we were NOT the first person to have them damage an expensive mattress that had to file a claim with the Attorney General against them!

I used Burkhardt to move from downtown Boston to Cohasset. This was 2 days after «The Blizzard of 2013» and there was a 9 foot snow pile in front of my house.
I got a call from Burkhardt a day before to plan the most efficient way to work around the snow and make my move successful. They even had a backup plan and brought a second truck (at no charge) that they could have used to circle the block if they couldn’t pull over.
We were able to find a spot out front, and didn’t have to use any emergency plans, but the dedication to my move was notable.
They brought two extra guys for the first half of the move, to make filling the truck as fast as possible due to the snow/​parking situation. Those extra guys (cleared with me ahead of time) made the final amount a little more than my two other quotes, but it was worth it to have an entire house packed in just over 2 hours.
All the workers were nice, friendly guys, and were very careful with all my (family of 3’s) furniture and belongings. Everything arrived safely.
My only complaint would be that I wish they had accepted credit cards, even if there was a small fee added — I was selling my condo, and didn’t have my money from the sale yet, but still had to write a check for Burkhardt.

The estimate was spot on and the moving team was on time, super nice, and highly efficient. They made what can be one of the most stressful events easy. I will definitely use them again and wholeheartedly recommend them.

Burkhardt Brothers recently moved me from the South Shore to Arlington. They made the experience painless and stress-​free for me. They did all the packing, and all my belongings arrived in the same state they left the South Shore. One crew of three did the packing; another did the unloading. All six provided the kind of customer service you always hope for but rarely get: pleasant, helpful. They also set up the beds and moved furniture around till I was satisfied. The bill was reasonable, given the amount of work involved. Since Unilocal reviews helped me choose them, I wanted to write my own review. Thanks, Burkhardt Brothers!

I just used them last month to move me. They were awesome ! 1 I was really pleased with the whole process. From sales all the way to the big day. I would use them again

I hired them to move some furniture (including an upright piano) and lots of boxes. They did a great job! ontime, efficient, clean and careful. I would hire them in a minute. In fact, next year when I move again, I will call them. The owner, Dan is very friendly and helpful.

I hired Burkhardt Brothers to move me from Weymouth to Quincy in March and they did a fantastic job. Their quote was exactly what I owed when the job was finished and was very reasonably priced compared to other quotes I received.
The only thing I wanted out of a mover was to be as painless and hassle free as possible and they came through 110%. They were prompt, courteous, helpful, and got the job done quickly and efficiently. I would definitely recommend them to anyone that is looking for a hassle free and reasonably priced moving experience.
And to Shawn M., you get what you pay for my friend and I don’t think it’s fair to give them such a poor review based on a quote.

Highest quote for moving a spinet piano to RI, Gentle Giant $ 776, Death Wish $ 700, they came in with a 50% discount of $ 1000. YIKES! So it would have been $ 2000?

We’ve had Burkhardt Brothers move three pianos (1 grand, 1 studio, 1 spinet at various times) and also a household full of furniture. They’ve always been on-​time, within estimate (always reasonable) and exceptionally careful with our «prized possesions.» They are very easy to deal with. Highly recommended! *post script — since posting this they’ve also moved a Hammond A-​102 Organ (weighing over 400 lbs.) — and again, it went smooth as can be, and at a very fair price.
