Beacon Hill Moving Experts Who Really Know Boston
Getting Around Beacon Hill’s Historic Streets
We are familiar with every street in Beacon Hill, including Charles, Mount Vernon, and Pinckney Streets. The Boston movers we hire are well-versed in Beacon Hill, especially its narrow lanes.
Driveways made of cobblestone, along with the hilly terrain of the neighbourhood, require specialized moving equipment. We are always ready with the dollies that work perfectly on such surfaces.
Parking Permits and City Regulations
The city of Boston is very strict about street parking and therefore issues moving permits for residential areas. The City of Boston charges $69 for a moving truck space reservation, and permits must be displayed 48 hours before moving day.
We at Continental Moving handle the permit application process with the City of Boston.
Historic Building Access
Many of the buildings in Beacon Hill were built in the 1800s and are now presenting a challenge for moving. Furniture has to be carefully moved and protected when there are narrow doorways, spiral staircases, low ceilings, and intricate moldings.
The team measures the doors during an assessment before the move and arranges the furniture so that no damage is done to the architectural features during transport.
Working with Building Management
Condo associations and property managers in the Beacon Hill area have always been strict with the moving regulations. We are the ones who talk to management about reserving a service elevator, the moving time, and compliance with the property’s rules.
Such an arrangement ensures the move will proceed without problems, and the neighbors of your building will be far from any disturbances.
