In plain English: we collect the information you give us — name, phone, email, moving details — to build your quote and schedule your move. We don’t sell it, and we only share it with the handful of vendors, like payment processing and email delivery, that help us run the business. That’s the short version; the rest of this page covers the specifics required to publish a policy.

Information We Collect

When you request a quote, book a move, or contact our office, we collect what you provide directly: your name, phone number, email address, moving dates, and details about your move, such as origin, destination, and inventory. Our website also logs standard technical data — IP address, browser type, pages visited — through analytics tools, the same way most business websites do.

How We Use It

We use your information to prepare quotes, schedule crews, communicate about your move, and keep internal records for insurance and accounting purposes. We may also use contact details to follow up after a move for a review or referral, though you can opt out of that at any time.

Sharing

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. We share limited data with service providers who help us operate — payment processors, email and scheduling software, and our insurance carrier when a claim is filed.

Your Choices

You can ask us to correct, delete, or stop using your information at any time by emailing [email protected]. We’ll retain records required for tax, insurance, or legal purposes even after a deletion request, as required by Massachusetts law.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this page as our tools or practices change. Questions about how we handle your data can go to our office directly.

What Keeps People Booking Us Again

One Number, Nothing Added Later

Sean Doherty looks at the job himself — a call, a video walkthrough, or photos you text over — before he puts a number on paper, and that’s the number that shows up on the invoice.

Every Mover Is Ours, Full Stop

The crew on your truck trained under Tony Marchetti or Devon Walsh and draws a paycheck from Next Step — nobody’s pulled off a gig-work app the morning of your move.

Maureen Keeps Every Paper Ready

Every Belmont move runs on a Massachusetts DPU mover permit, and anything crossing state lines runs under our federal DOT and MC authority too — Maureen Kelly keeps both on file, plus proof of the $1M policy that rides along on every load, ready before you even think to ask.

Built Around a New England Calendar

A December ice storm that shuts down Trapelo Road gets a reschedule call before it hits, not after, and once the spring thaw turns the older driveways soft we walk the site first to make sure a loaded truck won’t sink it.

The Quote Already Covers the Hard Parts

A resident-permit street near Belmont Center, a third-floor triple-decker walk-up, the extra mileage out to Middlesex County’s far edge — all of it is priced in before we quote you, so the invoice never grows on move day.

Every Truck Rolls Out Fully Stocked

All 6 of our trucks leave the yard loaded with furniture pads, straps, dollies, and shrink wrap already on board, so nobody’s making a hardware-store run in the middle of your move.

Reserve Your Date Before September Fills Up

Lock in your Belmont move date online now — the first week of September disappears fast once every lease in Middlesex County turns over on the same weekend.

Moving The Date Costs Nothing Extra

A nor’easter lines up for moving day, or a closing gets pushed back a week — either way, rebooking ahead of time doesn’t add a dollar to your quote.

Priced Off Actual Middlesex County Jobs

Every quote is built from real jobs we’ve run around Belmont, not a generic online calculator, and veteran, teacher, and student-move discounts come off the price before you ever sign.

Straight From the People We Moved

Nothing below is trimmed or touched up — just Middlesex County households describing their own move day.

Devon’s crew got our piano down a staircase I was sure wouldn’t work, and never once acted rattled about it.

Tony walked the driveway before anything else, planned the truck angle, and had us loaded ahead of schedule.

Next Step Moving and Storage quoted a number on the first call and the invoice matched it to the dollar.

No fuel charge, no stair charge, nothing tacked on — the price we agreed to was the price we paid.

They packed the kitchen the night before and had the truck unloaded before dinner the next day.
