One of the Business' Favorite Reviews What's This?
Is moving fun? No, never, but with Antons mover it is as pleasant as possible.
These guys were AMAZING! So friendly, so good, so efficient. I was floored.
Rudy was great from the get-go during the scheduling process. Then, due to inclement weather on our scheduled move date, he squeezed us in at the end of the day we called to ensure we moved during dry weather that weekend. By the time they arrived, they had already worked 11 hrs. However, you wouldn't have known it had they not mentioned it in conversation. They were upbeat, funny and still very fast and strong. They really knew their stuff and didn't mess around.
Having moved several times, I can certainly tell you these guys are amongst the best in the business and I will recommend them profusely every chance I get.
Rudy, if you are reading this...THANK YOU!
Spasibo, Anton!! For saving our backs, for saving our sanity, for saving our relationship (there would have been blood if the Lady Friend and I had had to do this ourselves).
Booked for September 2nd, after the storm. Got the discount rate for scheduling for after the first of the month, AND another discount for having them do two moves back to back (well, two separate apartments into one new one), bringing the price down to $70/hour for two movers, the truck, the insurance, the whole kit and caboodle.
Our two movers were magicians - "for our next trick, we will make this wall of boxes disappear from your apartment and reappear tightly packed on the truck. And for our next trick, we will redistribute them in your apartment before you can recite the alphabet". On to the Lady Friend's apartment - wash, rinse, repeat.
All together took 6 hours, not even, breaking down two apartments flung across town(s) and then piled into our new little shack of sin, without a single banged or dinged piece of furniture, lost box, or complaint. We salute you Anton's, and will toss shot glasses on the floor in your honor.
(Only minor quibble is the a certain lack of pro-active, or any-active, communication after scheduling they move. We did have to reschedule once, and this caused much hand wringing and worrying and headaches, but the change went through, and everything worked out in the end)
Anton's Movers called me to verify that I liked their service a month after moving when they saw my review was for four stars. I will give them 5 stars to help their rating but will probably never use them to move again as this phone call made me very uncomfortable.
To Anton's Movers: PLEASE DO NOT CALL ME AGAIN.

Anton's movers were really efficient. They arrived at 9am, and had my 1 bedroom moved 20 minutes… Read more »
Anton's Movers were great!! They saved my life, bc my other moving company screwed me over and canceled on me. I called them last mins to book the move and 2 nice russian guys came to the rescue. they were young but efficient! got my small move done in 1.5 hours! just the right rate too. very sweet and friendly! I would def use them again and recommend them to friends.
These guys are dependable, hardworking guys! :)
Almost a year ago I moved from Boston to New York. A couple of friends had used Anton's for local moves and were happy with the price and after calling several places, they had the best price for my NYC move.
Day of the move, Anton's arrives EARLY (just before 6am) and were out of my first floor Brookline apartment by 8am. We were all arrived in New York around noon and they started hauling all of my stuff to my third floor walk up on the Upper West Side. They were work horses getting everything into my much smaller NYC digs.
When I got my initial quote, they underestimated how many boxes I would have and pointed this out so I was expecting to be charged more than originally quoted. No problem, that was fair. When it came time to settling the bill they charge me what I had be quoted (and it was a non binding agreement).
Definitely recommend them for the Boston to NYC move! Price is more than fair and the work ethic is outstanding.
Utmost professionalism and speedy, speedy! The two gentlemen who came by weren't chatty kathy's by any means which was fine by me, but they were all business and made my move from cambridge to the back bay as easy as possible. I had lots of fragile pieces which they handled with care. They even maneuvered around the aggravating parking situation around my new place.
And they were a lot cheaper than some of the other options I considered. For $85 an hour, I'll be calling them for the next move!
I think Anton's movers are trustworthy, efficient and incredibly professional. They moved quickly and its Definitely worth the money, if you don't want to break your back!
So we used them for the second time. They really are efficient and it went mostly well.. Unfortunately, our tv stand.... is broken
Picture 2 Russian guys with a truck, in the pouring rain. Unfortuately, that was the weather the day we moved. Having used professional movers several times in the past for long distance moves, I must say that I was a little surprised by how "low frills" Antons is. There's nobody tagging all your items and making sure they all are accounted for. And some of my stuff got a bit banged up, probably due to inadequate padding. But they guys worked very hard and were pleasant. And the price was right. I also liked the website where you can request an estimate and pick and confirm your move date. A good choice for a local move.
I've used Anton's Movers twice now. And the latest move was a big one from Boston to New York. Simply put, they...were...amazing. Rudy and Anton were extremely accommodating and the rate was excellent. The movers arrived on time and like Supermen, moved all my furniture and boxes. It made my move a more relaxing process. The movers were really friendly and pleasant to be around. I couldn't stress the excellence of this business more. I would recommend them to anyone. A++++
just moved to ny from boston. the movers came on time, actually even a bit early which was great. they took longer to load up than i expected. think it took 2 1/2 hrs to 3 hrs to load up the truck for our 2 bedroom apartment. we sold most of our furniture and didn't move everything except big stuff. but no complaints from me for taking their time to load up the truck! everything got delivered in the shape they left boston, meaning, no broken objects or scratches or losing items. they moved my imac and flat screen t.v. too. they took really good care of fragile objects. they arrived promptly, again early which i much prefer than late the next morning with everything. they were much faster at unloading the truck and placed things where we asked them to. i promised i would write a good review for such amazing job they did with our move!!! if i move back to boston, definitely moving again with anton's movers. very reasonable, very professional, and would trust all my stuff with them again for a move any time.
These guys have a great little local moving company! They have moved me 3 times and I've referred them to various friends, all singing their praises. It's a family run business, and they work their arses off to move you fast and efficiently, no matter what the condition is. It's actually unbelievable that nothing phases these warriors. My last move was from a first floor apt to a 5th floor walk up, and they banged it out super fast up and down 64 steps with pleasant demeanors and an even an occassional smile. They charge a fraction of the cost of other moving companies and have superhuman strength! Don't mess with "a man with a van" or an overpriced corporate mover, use Anton's coz they rock.
