Safe Responsible Movers receives Bronze in Banker & Tradesman’s Best of 2026 readers’ poll
Boston, Massachusetts – November 3, 2026 – Safe Responsible Movers, an independently owned Boston moving company established in 2008, has received the Bronze award in the Moving Company category of Banker & Tradesman’s Best of 2026 readers’ poll. The recognition marks the company’s third award in four years, following Silver awards in 2023 and 2024.
The annual Banker & Tradesman’s Best awards recognize businesses serving Massachusetts’ real estate, banking, and related professional industries. Now in its 19th year, the program invites readers to vote for companies based on their experiences and satisfaction with service providers. Thousands of readers participated in the 2026 poll.
In this year’s Moving Company category, Gentle Giant received Gold, Father & Son Moving & Storage received Silver, and Safe Responsible Movers received Bronze.
For Safe Responsible Movers, the award represents another recognition for a relatively small, independently owned business operating alongside larger regional moving companies.
Eighteen Years of Moving Experience in Boston
Founded by Chris Amaral in 2008, Safe Responsible Movers has provided residential and commercial moving services throughout Boston and Massachusetts for 18 years. Amaral, a Watertown Massachusetts native with more than two decades of experience in the moving industry, established the company with an emphasis on experienced crews, local knowledge, and direct customer service.
Over nearly two decades, the company has handled relocations throughout Boston’s diverse neighborhoods, including Beacon Hill, the North End, Back Bay, Allston, Brighton, Jamaica Plain, and the South End, as well as surrounding communities such as Cambridge, Somerville, Brookline, Newton, and Watertown.
Moving within these areas often involves logistical challenges associated with historic buildings, narrow staircases, limited loading access, elevator coordination, and densely populated streets. The company’s experience with these conditions has shaped its approach to planning and executing local relocations.
“We’re a relatively small company in a very competitive industry, so being recognized alongside much larger moving companies means a lot to us,” said Amaral.
Specialty Moving Services
In addition to traditional residential and commercial relocations, Safe Responsible Movers provides several specialized moving services.
The company handles the transportation, disassembly, and reassembly of Peloton fitness equipment, including Peloton Bike, Tread, and Row models. These moves can involve navigating tight staircases, coordinating equipment handling, and transporting large exercise machines between residences.
Safe Responsible Movers also works with Massachusetts households seeking moving assistance through the Residential Assistance for Families in Transition (RAFT) program. The company prepares detailed moving estimates and supporting documentation for customers applying for assistance through the program. Funding eligibility and payment approvals are determined by the relevant program administrators.
Additional services include senior and assisted living relocations, professional packing, in-home furniture moving, labor-only assistance, rental truck and storage container loading, piano moving, and furniture hoisting.
These services reflect the company’s experience handling relocations of varying sizes and requirements, from individual furniture items to complete household and office moves.
The 2026 Bronze award adds to Safe Responsible Movers’ previous recognition in Banker & Tradesman’s annual poll and continues its association with the publication’s awards program.
