Plan a legal space for the moving truck
Boston offers a moving-truck permit to reserve legal curb space; the City says the permit is optional. If you need a reservation, use the current moving-truck instructions for application timing, the space and sign posting.
A standard permit covers two spaces for one day, and signs must be posted at least 48 hours before its start. Confirm the location and who handles the arrangements with Milvus. A driveway move needs its own check of usable space and access.
Prepare the route before the load
Keep the landing available for the furniture
A landing is a turning space, not a place to store packed cartons. Keep stairs, doorways and shared passages clear while the rooms are being prepared. Show Milvus low ceilings, tight corners and any alternative route that may matter for a large piece.
Tell the crew about removable parts and existing condition concerns before wrapping or disassembly begins. Agree on the required preparation and keep owner-removed hardware identified with its furniture.
Apply the same review to the new address. The exit from the old home does not establish that a sofa or cabinet will fit the receiving stairway.
Rates and your estimate
Hyde Park local moving rates
Milvus publishes five date categories for local moving. The table shows the hourly rate for a crew with a truck. Confirm the category for your date and the complete booking terms before accepting your estimate.
| Date category | 2 movers + truck | 3 movers + truck | 4 movers + truck |
|---|---|---|---|
| Discount | $110/hr | $160/hr | $210/hr |
| Regular | $120/hr | $170/hr | $220/hr |
| Subpeak | $150/hr | $200/hr | $250/hr |
| Peak | $180/hr | $230/hr | $280/hr |
| Highpeak | $260/hr | $360/hr | $460/hr |
Additional mover and additional truck rates are $55/hour each in the Discount category, $65/hour each in Regular, Subpeak and Peak, and $75/hour each in Highpeak. Ask which crew and vehicle arrangement fits your inventory.
The hourly rate is one part of the estimate. Confirm minimum billable time, travel, packing labor and materials, access-related work and any other applicable charges. A move is not booked by viewing these rates.
Choose the work you want handled
Define the packing before choosing the appointment
| Your choice | Details to include |
|---|---|
| Move owner-packed belongings | Furniture list, cartons and any remaining protection |
| Pack fragile pieces | Item types, quantities and materials required |
| Pack selected rooms | Contents, preferred preparation time and daily-use essentials |
| Pack the household | Whole inventory, furniture preparation and appointment sequence |
Moving a piece of furniture does not automatically describe the packing needed for its contents. Have labor, supplies and any disassembly or reassembly identified in the estimate.
Arrange the receiving side
Direct delivery or an interval between homes
The destination is ready
Confirm keys, building access and an available recipient. Identify rooms for larger furniture and any fixed moving window.
The destination opens later
Discuss storage before collection. Define the stored inventory, conditions, access and charges for handling and redelivery.
Complete the estimate
Keep travel and the service scope together
Milvus is based in Waltham. Confirm the travel and billable-time calculation for the Hyde Park appointment along with crew, date category, minimum billing and applicable additional charges. Include every address and any extra stop.
If the destination is outside Massachusetts, request an interstate estimate with delivery arrangements specified for the route. Tell Milvus if the inventory grows, packing remains unfinished or receiving access changes before moving day.

Does Milvus move houses as well as apartments in Hyde Park?

Boston describes the permit as optional. It can reserve legal curb space; check current City instructions and agree on the loading arrangement for your property.
Can basement and garage items be included?
Yes. List them explicitly and explain their access. Unusual equipment or items with special transport requirements need review before packing.

Can I leave fragile packing for Milvus?
