Movers who know Providence

Providence runs from the College Hill Victorians and downtown lofts to the dense three-deckers of Federal Hill, Olneyville, and Smith Hill. Narrow winding stairwells, close-packed streets, tight parking, and a pile of junk left behind are all in a day's work, so we walk the access first and give you one flat rate before a box moves.

  • Three-decker readyNarrow, winding triple-decker stairs on Federal Hill and the East Side carried with pads and patience.
  • Haul-away built inOld couches, mattresses, and full cleanouts taken off your hands the same day.
  • Downtown-savvyLofts and East Side buildings, with the COI filed and elevator booked ahead.
Neighborhoods we cover

What Providence says

What Providence tells us

I needed a very large, heavy piece of furniture moved from my first floor up to my second, a big staircase with a landing in the way. It had to weigh at least 300 pounds and stood eight or nine feet tall. Just two of Big Mikes' guys handled it, where it had taken three men to move it the last time. Not a mark of damage on it or the walls. Very impressed.

I will not move unless the Big Mikes crew is doing it. I have moved three times in the past year, and every single time the guys showed up on time and were professional, with no damage across all three moves. I cannot compliment this company enough. Call them.
MMarcus T.Verified customer · East Providence, RI★★★★★
I called a few other places but I am so glad I stumbled on this small company. The owner clearly takes real pride in the work. Glenn, a longtime supervisor, and his crew were amazing. My furniture was not small and not light, plus a jukebox in the basement that had to come up a flight of stairs and a load of heavy boxes down from a loft on a narrow staircase. They did it all with a smile, and for one very reasonable, no-nonsense flat rate. From now on I will always recommend Big Mikes.

Our word on it

The Big Mikes promise

On the rare day a Big Mikes job goes wrong, owning it and fixing it is our problem, not yours. You get a firm arrival window, a straight answer when something slips, and a crew that treats your place like their own.

✔ On the dot — the crew hits the window we gave you, and if it ever slides you get a call first.

✔ One flat number — you get it up front and that is the total, no meter and nothing rounded up.

✔ No runaround — if something is off we sort it right there on the spot.

✔ No hidden add-ons — fuel, the stair climb, and hauling the junk are already in the number.

Providence moving FAQs

Do you move within Providence?

Yes, in-town Providence moves are our bread and butter, whether it is a downtown loft or a Federal Hill three-decker, all on one flat rate, and we can haul off whatever you leave behind. Mount Pleasant is where we are based, so last-minute dates are usually no problem.

How does the flat rate stay firm?

Mike weighs up what you are truly moving and how awkward the way in is, hands you a single number, and sticks to it. Provided the load lines up with what you described, move day settles on that exact flat rate, no meter and nothing rounded up at the end.

Do stairs, a piano, or hauling get charged at the end?

No. A three-decker stair climb, a piano or a safe, and any junk we haul off are all in the flat rate before the first box moves, so the number never drifts from what Mike quoted you.

Do you haul away junk and do cleanouts?

We do, and it is half of what we do, right there in the name. We can haul off old furniture, a mattress, or a whole cleanout on the same trip as your move or as its own job, and it is dumped or donated the right way, folded into your flat rate.

Will you move a piano, a safe, or other heavy stuff?

Yes, and it is baked into your flat rate. Pianos, gun safes, jukeboxes, and other heavyweights go on the correct board with proper straps and padding, wrestled out by guys who have shifted no shortage of them, 300-pound pieces up a staircase included.

Do you take a deposit?

Just a small refundable hold on your crew and your date, that is all. Everything else is due when the job is finished, and the estimate never costs anything.

Ready for a flat rate you can plan the whole Providence move around?

Your flat rate comes straight from Mike, usually the same working day you ask.
