How we handle Packing & Materials
Careful packing decides whether a move comes through clean or chipped, and it weighs double when boxes ride out a sticky bay summer or a hard January nor'easter. We work one room at a time, label each carton as we tape it, and cushion the fragile things right, so nothing shifts loose and unpacking goes fast.
A figure we hand you in writing before the truck rolls
Ask around the bay and most movers will quote you an hourly rate, then let the meter decide what you owe. MGM flips that: you get a set figure on paper before a truck ever leaves our Dry Bridge Road yard, with the boxing, any storage, and the stair and shore-access work already counted in.
Tell us about it
Tell us the rooms, the staircases, the street out front, whether a bridge to the island is involved, and the dates on your calendar, by phone, on a quick video tour, or with us standing in your living room.
Get one figure
One set figure comes back to you from the Dry Bridge Road office, most times before that working day is out.
Book when you are set
The quote is free and carries no strings. You owe nothing to ask, and you book only once the figure and the date both feel right.

Reviews from around the bay
Our trucks. Our movers. Nobody farmed out.
We never sell your job to a broker, hand it to day-labor, or pass it to a face you have never seen. Every mover hauling your sofa draws an MGM paycheck under Bob, and each truck at the curb belongs to us, painted with our name and serviced in our own Dry Bridge Road yard.
- MGM movers, on our booksTrained, background-checked crews on the bay’s homes and offices in every month of the calendar.
- The same faces start to finishOne crew loads, drives, unloads, and sets each piece, so nothing slips through a hand-off.
- Gentle by defaultQuilted furniture, runners down the halls, and padded jambs before anyone picks up the first box.
The MGM Moving & Storage promise
On the rare day an MGM move goes wrong, it is our job to own it and make it right. You get a set arrival window, a claims process laid out in plain terms, and a crew that moves through your home as carefully as their own.
✔ On time — the MGM crew arrives within the window we set, and if it ever slips you hear from us first.
✔ Nothing padded — you sign the number one time, and that is the entire total, down to the dollar.
✔ Claims made simple — anything amiss is logged right then and squared away on paper, no chasing.
✔ No surprise add-ons — fuel, miles, and the stair and shore carries are already baked into the figure.

Packing & Materials FAQs
How is the flat price kept firm?
We price it off the things you are actually moving and how awkward the way in is, write that number down, and stick to it. Provided the load matches what you described, move day settles on the exact figure you signed, no padding and no ticking meter.
Do you move pianos and gun safes?
Yes, and it is already folded into your set price. Pianos have been part of our everyday work for years; those heavy, awkward pieces go on the correct board with proper straps and padding, handled by crews who have moved no end of them.
What protects the floors and walls on move day?
We lay runners across the floors, pad the door casings and rails, and quilt-wrap the furniture before it moves, so the old address and the new one both come through clean, weathered shingle and brittle old plaster included.
Can you move through Rhode Island winters and summers?
All fifty-two weeks. Come winter we grit the walks and load quickly so nothing lingers out in a nor'easter; through the summer shore rush we get an early jump and keep pieces out of the sun. Your window stands whether it is a January blow or a sticky August afternoon on Narragansett Bay.
How much notice should I give?
A week or two of lead time covers most jobs, and the ends of months and the summer beach stretch book up first. If a crew opens up we will still slot in a same-week or next-day move, so a quick call never hurts.
Do you take a deposit?
Just a small refundable hold to lock your MGM crew and your day, that is all. The balance is settled once the work is finished, and the quote never costs a thing.
Want a number on paper you can build the whole Ocean State move around?
Your figure on paper leaves the Dry Bridge Road office, most often before the working day you ask is over.
