Explore Service arrow_right_altSomerville is the densest place we work. Davis Square, Union Square, Ball Square, Teele Square — every one of them is a triple-decker grid threaded with one-ways, resident-permit parking, and bike lanes that change the truck approach week to week. Add Tufts on the north edge and the Red Line running through the middle and you've got a town where the move plan has to be written before the truck leaves Franklin, not figured out in the front yard.
Two non-negotiables. First, the city's moving-truck permit: Somerville requires it filed at least 14 days before the move, and they post the no-park signs ahead of time. We can pull it for you or coach you through the process — but missing it usually means a long carry from wherever the truck ends up. Second, the September 1 surge. If your lease lines up with the Tufts and BU calendar, book at least 6-8 weeks ahead; we will not be the company that shows up at noon because we doubled-booked.
The housing is mostly triple-deckers, two-family wood-frames, and mansard Victorians, with newer condos sprinkled in around Assembly Row. Triple-decker stair carries are the daily reality — banister covers, padded runners, and the right number of bodies (we don't try to do a third-floor walk-up with a two-person crew). Trucks roll with ramp boards, four-wheel dollies, mattress bags, and stretch wrap as standard kit.
Eastside Movers is licensed and insured, owner-operated by Tyler Trefrey, and we don't subcontract — the same Franklin crew handles every Somerville residential, commercial, senior, and packing job.
