When our design firm took on a client’s project out of state, we knew we had to first find a reliable receiver and mover but didn’t have any contacts in the area. After a lot of research and an impressionable phone call with the owner, we made the decision to go with Massad Movers. It was absolutely the right decision! We have been so impressed with their level of professionalism and communication. Especially in a high end project, we had no worries as they took every precaution to be careful and respectful of the home and surroundings. They are efficient and tidy; never leaving a mess behind. Everyone we’ve worked with (especially Patrick who’s been at every install to date) is so friendly and willing to do whatever was needed. For the big jobs like moving an enormous rug and an even bigger dining table, they sent a big crew to match the job. Not only was installation day a breeze but they also received and stored a wide array of furniture, rugs, and antiques and were quick to report any issues they saw so we could address them quickly. Massad Movers took so much of the stress and worry out of our job, and we could not be happier!

Great team assisted in my move to the Midwest. Special thanks to Phil for coordinating the move. The packup crew worked together— giving particular attention protecting/securing each item for the long distance travel (Dan, Angel, Ryan). The delivery crew was timely—great care taken in setting up things my new home (Ryan, Russ).Thanks to you all! Lynn

What an amazing and caring moving team. They made effort to chat with all of us. Quick professional and fun to work with. They helped guide us with my mom’s move and made it easy. We appreciate the fast move time with very short notice.

The team at Philip P. Massad Movers was incredibly professional, hardworking, and meticulous in every detail. They expertly managed a complex dual move for us over several weeks—one leg from Massachusetts to Florida, and the second from Massachusetts to New York. Their outstanding organizational skills and special care with high-value items truly stood out. Every crew member was courteous, respectful, and treated our homes with the same care they would their own.I highly recommend Massad Movers for any local or long-distance moving needs—they made a challenging process smooth and stress-free!

I want to update my original review now that I’ve had my belongings stored with this company for four years. Although my first experience left me unsure, time has shown me that this is a family business with real integrity, strong values, and genuine care for their customers.Over the years, my storage needs have changed, and they have consistently been accommodating and helpful. Their communication has been great—whether by phone or email, there has always been someone available during business hours to answer questions or assist with anything I needed. I’ve pulled items from storage a few times, and every time I’ve seen that my belongings have been extremely well kept. No issues with water, pests, temperature damage, or anything else. It truly feels like my things have been “frozen in time.”I also have a better understanding now of the time it takes to move and store items properly. After seeing how long it took me just to pack a few things into my own car—and considering how much I had—I can see that the hours they billed were realistic. They work efficiently and quickly, even if I didn’t fully understand that at the time.This is a hardworking, compassionate family business, and they’ve earned a higher rating from me. I appreciate the integrity they’ve shown and the care they’ve taken with my belongings over the years.Original 3 star review:The movers were nice. was able to book then last minute. They are able to move pianos. Ended up being very costly because of the lack of transparency with the amount of time it takes to move. My move took 7 hours. I still don't know how. Getting the stuff out of my apartment into the truck was about 3 hours. Don't know why it took 4 hours to unload at the warehouse. Also they did another job in between mine, so it is still unclear whether that pause was included in my 7 hours. I have yet to see my stuff at the warehouse. It's not like a storage unit you can just pop in and get what you want out. After my stuff left the apartment, I never saw them again. I called once to pull a few things out but never got a response. I trust that they are in storage crated up as I was told. I'll update this post and rating when I get to see them or when I move them out of there.

This company is by far the best in the area! I have used them twice now for big moves. The guys are efficient, professional, and compassionate. They know what they’re doing, and they give you the sense of security that goes along with a big move. The crew gets along so well and they make the move go seamlessly. I highly recommend them!

Patrick, Kris, Joe and Phil helped us move a couple of weeks ago. We couldn't have asked for better service. We weren't ready and they were so helpful strategizing what to move first and how to get us to where we needed to be. They were super efficient, friendly and really communicative. I had my 4 year old daughter with me, whose helpfulness could have been an annoyance and a distraction but they were wonderful with her! They were also so great on the other end, making sure that things went exactly where we wanted them and also letting my daughter look in the truck! If we were going to move again, which I hope we don't anytime soon, I would not hesitate to call them to take care of it. Our experience was better than we could have hoped for, thank you!

We used Massad Movers yesterday to move out of our home of 54 yrs. They were the best! So kind, understanding, reassuring. They even made sure my pet was ok. They were efficient and patient and I was so relieved that all went so smoothly. Thanks again for making a stressful move easier!

I have used Massad Movers for many years. This family owned and run business does an excellent job. Timely, reliable and efficient.... I have required storage, local and long distance moving services. Highly recommended. All employees are polite and professional. 5 stars for sure.

I have not even used Massad Movers yet. However, I reached out to be proactive about planning for a potential upcoming move. Phil called me back promptly with courtesy and professionalism along with a clear and transparent estimate and pricing far better compared to any other company I have spoken with. I felt compelled to leave a review based on that alone. I will 100% use Phil should our current home sale and future home purchase all come to fruition. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

We worked with Massad Movers for CASA's annual fundraising event and could not have been happier with their services. As a nonprofit, we rely heavily on community partnerships to bring our events to life. Massad Movers exceeded every expectation - they were responsible, flexible and provided amazing support for our event.

Steve and Ryan were extremely easy to work with for moving from a 2nd floor unit to another 2nd floor unit. They are great at making small talk and making the work feel quick. They were very gentle and precise with fragile loads and followed instructions exactly and remembered them for me which made the whole process painless

Massad Movers should get 10 stars!!! We have used them on 2 occasions and to say they were outstanding is an understatement! Our first move was a little over 6 years ago from a home we lived in located in Worcester for 37 years that had 38 steps and was a three story house. Unfortunately, the way the driveway was designed, the crew was unable to get the truck up the driveway and had to use the 38 steps up and down. Not a word of displeasure out of their mouths- just smiles and complete co-operation about everything we asked them to do!!! Recently we moved from an apartment complex to a condo duplex. Again, they showed up on time, well prepared and even helped box some things we didn't get to, as well as carefully protecting fragile objects, TVs, pictures, etc. When we arrived at the new home, they made sure we were happy with the location of everything. Hopefully, this is our last move (in our 70's now) but could never imagine using any company but this wonderful, family owned business. Bottom line, don't waste your time calling any other company, just use Massad!!!!

Massad moved us the other day from 3rd floor to the first floor in our building. This is the 3rd time we have used them. This time Dan, Angel and Carlos were our movers. Just like the past 2 times we used them these men were very professional, hard working and fast. Before Dan left he made sure every was where we wanted it and didn't need anything moved else where. I highly recommend Massad Movers. Great job!!!

Massad Movers have helped us on 4 occasions with both moving and delivering products for our home renovation.They are exceptional, and professional and their team are always helpful and positive. You just don’t find a group like this very often. I went out to the truck that they were almost done loading to ask a question and was struck with the care and order of their packing of our belonging. I also had to go to their storage warehouse to retrieve something and once again I was struck with the level of organization and assistance.Five stars is not enough to give this well run company.

Massad Movers was recommended by friends and we're glad we chose them for a local move. Good communication right from the start with Phil. Movers (Dan & Joe) were very prompt & professional & personable. Moved the items quickly and carefully and communicated well throughout the process. It was a hot, humid day & our family appreciates the hard work these guys do. Fair price, no surprises, no hassle. 100% recommend.

Philip P. Massad movers moved us to the Cape. Patrick and team did a fantastic job. No damage to the furniture or the home during the move. They had to move items in the pouring rain, and made sure the furniture and home were kept clean and dry. They did a great job disassembling and reassembling our furniture. The pricing was reasonable. I highly recommend this company for your moving needs.

I retained Massad Movers on short notice. They moved my mom this morning. I spoke to Phil on the phone to set this up. He was professional and put the effort in to accommodate my short notice request. The two gentleman were on time and professional. Asking where things needed to go and offering to move things around before they left the premises. They made sure I was satisfied before ending the job. They were great. Move was accomplished quickly and professionally.

I got to meet everyone from the company recently and got to see them in action at various locations. They work quickly, and I definitely dedicated to what they do. They have all new trucks, excellent branding and super friendly. Since talking about them recently, I've had a number of people reach out to me and tell me their experiences with them, which are also amazing.

With little notice, they moved my mom from MA to NH, with a stop at my house in between. The men who worked the job were friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. The price quoted was beyond reasonable, and we can’t tuck this company enough for their help!

Massad Movers moved our personal property to our new residence on Friday, June 21. The service provided by John, Bryan, and Ryan was first-rate in every respect. They arrived exactly at 8:00 AM as scheduled. They moved all of our furniture and appliances with impressive speed and efficiency. At every point they were careful not to damage the item or the house. They took similar care at our new residence, placing every item exactly where I wanted it. They completed the entire job by 11:30 AM. To a person John, Bryan, and Ryan were friendly and engaging. They all have great senses of humor. I cannot imagine a better moving experience.

Our appointment time frame was 11am to 1pm and the movers showed up around 1:10. We were worried that they would never come but nothing mad or anything. We did not have a good experience with previous moving company so we actually planned and searched more and found Philip. The movers Paul and Jimmy did a great job- Polite and efficiently. Definitely recommend Philip to everyone in the area.

Very happy. Three strong men carefully moved my baby grand piano to the new house and it’s still in tune 👍. They also moved the washer and dryer up a steep set of narrow steps without batting an eye.I would choose them again for their efficiency, price and friendliness.

We had a great experience with Massad Movers. We had them move furniture around, put stuff in the basement, empty out our storage unit and deliver the rest to another location. They flexed the schedule to get us in on the day that we wanted. Hustled the whole time. Very polite. Squeezed furniture where it shouldn't have fit. Put furniture back together almost as good as new (replaced some screws & nails). No damage. No footprints left behind.

Angel and Eric were excellent movers- no dings, no chips, no damage on either walls or heavy antique furniture. Very good at figuring out how to get furniture into tight squeezes. Very polite and easy to work with too. Very satisfied with their work.

Philip P. Massad Movers’ team — Pat, Paul, Eric, and Angel — did an excellent job moving us into our new home. They seamlessly worked together to safely, carefully, and quickly load and unload the trucks. They were a pleasure to work with, happily responding to our needs as we tried to figure out how to best settle things into our new space. I appreciate the help the team provided to us, making the moving experience as stress-free as it could be.

I called Philip P Massad Movers and they were able to squeeze me in when I needed it most. They were super friendly on the phone. My movers, Eric and Angel, were fantastic. They were very professional, came on time and took very good care of my belongings. I felt bad because I had to make them move couches twice, but they did it, no problem. This company was referred to me by a friend and I'm so glad I hired them. 5 stars!!

We used Massad Movers recently to move from Westborough, MA to Newport, RI and we couldn't be happier with the crews that packed and moved us within 48 hours. Kris, Russell, Sean, Eric and Joe were incredible to work with! On move day, conditions were not ideal as it rained hard the entire day, both moving out and then moving in. The Crew parked the trucks close to both houses to minimize the rain would have on our belongings. These guys were as cohesive a Team as any I've seen in my Life. The were so professional, courteous, humorous and HARD WORKING!! They were in constant motion the entire day and finished up at 7:30pm. Since we are renting through June of next year, we plan on using them again when we move into our new home in Newport. You can't go wrong with Massad Movers!

I had to have two, commercial, heavy -duty refrigerators moved from my garage into my basement.Massad Movers arrived early. They were polite, professional, friendly, and got right to work. They moved these behemoths like they were helium balloons, and didnt' damage the fridges, the floor or the house. They quoted a fair price, and honored the quote after they finished.Excellent service, caring staff, and they went the extra mile.

The three men arrived right on time the day of our move. They were very polite and they all had smiles on their faces. We took a quick tour of the house we were moving from and the men got right to work. We were moving from Worcester, MA to Hyannis, MA all in a day. We were packed and on the road to Hyannis by 11:30 AM. The men started unloading the truck and they were still smiling and still polite. If they were unsure of something they would ask questions. There pace never slowed down even though it was a hot day. These three men worked as a team all day. They left us at 5:30 and all three were still smiling. Great job guys, you truly made our moving day a pleasure.

The best of the best!1. Best prices: We got a few different quotes for a rather complicated move, requiring 5 stops. The Mossad quote was the lowest and because they were highly recommended by our realtor, we chose them.2. Best movers: John and Paul were absolutely sensational. Hard working, efficient, professional, smart and both men had a great sense of humor, which made the experience more enjoyable.3. Best truck! Can’t beat that beautiful, bright red, shiny moving truck!

I highly recommend Phillip Massad's team! The guys that came to help with my move were so friendly and down to earth. Hard workers who got the job done quickly and correctly. The process of scheduling the move was pleasant and stress free. The staff on the phone is friendly and straightforward. They charge by the hour and the price estimate I was quoted was almost spot on. No hidden fees, no trip charge (only the driving time), no labor fees, no truck fees. I am very impressed with the company and I look forward to working with them again for my future moving needs. I recommend to just be aware that they may charge for longer time than it actually took to make the move, that's because they calculate the time from when they leave their facility to when they get back, which was not a problem for me because my move was local anyways. I was under the impression that they start the time when they arrive and they stop when they are done unloading, but this is incorrect. Still the best rate around and the best quality and service I could have hoped for! Thank you for making it simple and worry-free!

I've used this moving Company many times in the past. They, in my opinion, are the best and most professional movers in Worcester county.
