Serving Cranston, RI since 1942
Looking for movers in Cranston who are already down the road? Murray's Moving and Storage has run out of Johnston since 1942, and Johnston shares a border with Cranston. Our trucks come straight down Atwood Avenue. Some Cranston jobs start before the coffee is cold.
Cranston is two towns in one. The east side is older and packed in tight, with capes, bungalows, and two-families. Western Cranston is open land, farms, and bigger houses on bigger lots. We move both, and most of it is local home moving for families who are just changing streets.
Atwood Avenue south into Cranston
Garden City is ranches, capes, and split-levels built after the war, plus the shopping center that gave the neighborhood its name. These houses are friendly to a moving crew. Short driveways, one or two steps, and room to back the truck up.
The catch is the basement and the attic. Decades of storage end up down there. We plan time for it, and if half of it is not going with you, we can haul that out too.
Edgewood sits along Broad Street near the Providence line, with older Colonials, Victorians, and two-families on narrow lots. Big porches, steep stairs, and tight side yards. Street parking fills up early, so we plan where the truck goes before we arrive.
Old houses mean old banisters, plaster walls, and doorways that were not built for a sectional. We pad the tight spots, take doors off when we have to, and move slow where it counts.
Knightsville is the old Italian neighborhood around Cranston Street, with a lot of two-families and owners living on one floor and renting the other. We move tenants out, owners in, and sometimes both on the same day. Not all movers in Cranston will take on two households at one address in one shot. We do it often.
When both floors are moving, we split the crew and keep the stairway clear for one floor at a time. Less bumping, less damage, and nobody waits on the other family.
West of I-295, Cranston changes. Farms, horse property, and newer colonials set back from the road. These are bigger moves with more rooms, garages full of tools, and long driveways where a tractor-trailer will not turn around.
Good movers in Cranston check the driveway before moving day. We will bring the right size truck and tell you up front if we need to shuttle from the road.
Route 37 cuts across Cranston and ties I-295 to I-95. That is how we get a loaded truck from Western Cranston to the east side, or out of the city altogether, without crawling down Reservoir Avenue or Park Avenue.
It also makes our Johnston warehouse an easy run. Movers near me should mean exactly this: a crew that can load in Cranston, unload at the warehouse, and be back for the next trip the same day.
Quote for your Cranston move
Send the form or call the Johnston office. We call back within an hour and quote within 24 hours.
(401) 274-7071Bigger houses mean more boxes. Our crew packs kitchens, wraps furniture in pads, and labels every carton by room so the unload goes fast at the new place.
You can hand us the whole house, or just the china, the glass, and the pieces that matter. Packing can happen the day before so moving day is just loading and driving. Keep a few of our boxes for the basement if you like. Your call.
Closing dates do not always line up. When they do not, we bring your things back to our Johnston warehouse and keep them in wooden storage vaults until the new house is ready. See how our warehouse storage works.
