Serving Narragansett, RI since 1942
Looking for movers in Narragansett who understand how this town turns over twice a year? Murray's Moving and Storage is a family-owned company based in Johnston, RI, moving Rhode Island homes and businesses since 1942. Narragansett is a regular South County run for our crews.
Beach houses, year-round homes, student rentals, and the shops along the water all move differently. We pack, load, drive down Route 4, and carry it in. For most people here, that starts with our local household moving service and builds from there.
Route 4 South to Route 1 South
Our trucks take Route 4 South and pick up Route 1 South into town. On a weekday morning it is an easy run, well under an hour, and the crew is carrying boxes early.
Summer is a different story. Route 1 and the roads down to the beaches load up on hot weekends, so we schedule Narragansett moves for weekdays whenever the dates allow.
A big share of Narragansett rentals go to URI students for the school year, then switch back to summer renters. That means a wave of move-outs in late May and a wave of move-ins near the end of August, in Eastward Look, Bonnet Shores, and the streets around the Pier.
If your lease ends on one of those weeks, call early. Students moving a couch and a bed often just need our loading and unloading crews for a couple of hours, not a full-service move.
Owners who rent by the week in summer often clear out personal things in spring and bring them back in fall. Closets, linens, the good furniture, the boxes nobody wants a renter opening. We can pick up, store, and return on a schedule that matches the rental calendar.
Those belongings go into wooden vaults in our own building through our summer storage in Johnston. When the last renters leave, the furniture comes back.
Ocean Road runs along the water from the Pier toward Point Judith, and a lot of the houses on and off it sit on tight lots with steps, decks, and not much room for a truck. Good movers in Narragansett look at the parking before they look at the furniture.
Salt air and sand are hard on wood and fabric, so we pad and wrap every piece before it moves. Tell us about stairs, decks, and driveway length when you call. Photos of the entry help even more.
Down at Point Judith and Galilee, the fishing port and the Block Island ferry traffic share the roads with residents. On a summer day the lots and lanes there fill up fast, so we plan for early starts.
Year-round homes in this part of town get the same treatment as any house: pack, label by room, load, and set it in the new place where you want it. If you are moving within Narragansett, from a rental into a house you bought, we can often do both ends in one day.
Quote for your Narragansett move
Send the form or call the Johnston office. We call back within an hour and quote within 24 hours.
(401) 274-7071Student move-outs leave behind furniture, mattresses, and boxes. Our rental clean-outs empty the house so the owner can turn it over for the next tenant.
We also do estate clean-outs when a family is settling a longtime Narragansett home. We can schedule it the same week as the move.
Narragansett businesses live and die by the summer. We plan restaurant and office moves for the off-season, after hours, or on a Saturday so the doors stay open when it counts.
Files, fixtures, and equipment get wrapped and labeled. Give us your reopening date and we build the schedule backward from it. We also handle government and GSA moves, so paperwork and checklists do not slow us down.
Driving the truck yourself? Our container loading service packs a POD or rental truck tight so nothing shifts on the road. Headed out of Rhode Island altogether? We run moves out of state from here too.
Either way, you deal with one office from the first call to the last box. Our office is open Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, and Saturday from 8:00 to 10:00 AM.
