Join the Eastside crew
We're growing. If you're reliable, careful with people's stuff, and want to work for an owner-operated company instead of a national franchise, talk to Tyler directly. We hire one or two people at a time — and we hire when we find the right person, not just to fill a slot.
Whether you're a mover, a driver, a packer, or a crew lead with experience in the Boston area, send us a quick note and we'll set up a real conversation.
What working here actually looks like
Owner-operated, not a franchise
You work directly with Tyler. No national call-center, no regional manager who's never been in the truck.
Reliable schedule
We schedule the week ahead. No 5am text saying the job got cancelled. If a job moves, we tell you immediately.
Paid weekly, on time
Direct deposit every Friday. Tips paid same day in cash. Mileage and bridge tolls reimbursed without arguing.
Real safety standards
Working trucks, working straps, working dollies. Lift belts available. We don't cut corners on equipment because we live with the consequences.
Roles we hire for
Mover / Crew Member
Help load, transport, and unload furniture and household goods. Wrap, pad, and protect items. Show up on time and treat customers' homes the way you'd want yours treated.
Requirements: Reliable transportation, ability to lift 75 lbs comfortably, clean appearance, good attitude. Moving experience is a plus but not required — we train.
Driver
Drive a 26-foot straight truck on local and long-distance Northeast routes. Manage the crew on board. Class D license is fine for most routes; CDL is a plus.
Requirements: Clean driving record, comfortable backing into tight Boston-area driveways, good with paperwork (BOLs, COIs, permits).
Packer / Crew Lead
Run packing-day jobs. Lead a 2–3-person crew. Handle the customer interaction from arrival through walkthrough. Pay reflects experience.
Requirements: 2+ years of moving or packing experience, calm demeanor with customers, can teach a junior mover how to wrap a dresser without scratching it.
