We’ve been packing homes in Norfolk County since 2006, and Medfield’s housing stock demands a specific kind of preparation. The town’s dominant 1950s-to-1990s colonials, capes, and garrisons sit on mature lots with long, curved driveways that stay icy well into late winter thanks to the heavy oak and maple canopy. Older homes near the town center have steep, narrow staircases and low doorframe clearances from the 18th and 19th centuries. And then there’s the former Medfield State Hospital campus, where 19th-century institutional brick buildings are being converted into residential units with corridors and doorways unlike anything else in the region. Our Packing Services team trains for all three scenarios.

Why Milestone Moving Co. Is Medfield’s Preferred Packing Services Company
Medfield homeowners aren’t looking for the cheapest hourly rate. They’re looking for the crew that shows up in uniform, puts the quote in writing, and still answers the phone 90 days later. That’s been our model since Dale Whitmore founded Milestone Moving Co.
Our reputation in Medfield is built on accountability. We give you a binding written quote after a real in-person or video survey - the number does not change on move day, on the ramp, or at delivery. Every item we pack is covered by our Move-Right Guarantee, including full-value protection and our 90-Day Done Right Promise: if anything isn’t right, one call brings a crew or a check, not a subcontractor or a claim form that disappears.
Our response time to Medfield is typically same-day or next-day for estimates, with packing crews available within 24-48 hours. We garage our fully stocked branded trucks in the metros we serve, so we’re not driving from three towns away when you need us. And because we know Medfield’s specific conditions - the low-hanging branches over driveway aprons, the spring mud on unpaved portions of long driveways, the institutional corridors at the State Hospital - we don’t waste time figuring out your situation on arrival. We already know it.
Every Milestone crew member is background-checked, uniformed, and on our own payroll. Never gig labor. Never day workers sourced from a text message. One crew, start to finish.
Our Packing Services in Medfield
Full Packing Service
A typical full pack in Medfield runs $300-$1,600 and covers everything in your home, from kitchenware to closet contents. In Medfield’s high-value colonials, this often means handling heavier, higher-end furnishings than you’d find in comparable towns - think solid mahogany dining sets, built-in china cabinets, and oversized sectionals that barely fit through the original doorframes. We bring Uline boxes in every size, Milwaukee tool kits for disassembly, and enough bubble wrap and paper to handle a full 4,000-square-foot home without running back to the warehouse.
We recently packed a family moving from a colonial on North Street into a converted unit at the old Medfield State Hospital campus. Our crew custom-crated a Steinway piano and wrapped antique china, then carefully navigated the hospital’s wide hallways and irregular doorways, ensuring every fragile piece arrived intact.
Partial Packing
Partial packing runs $150-$600 and covers the rooms or items you don’t want to handle yourself. Most Medfield customers choose this for kitchens, home offices, or fragile collections while packing books and clothing themselves. We’ll work with whatever division makes sense for your timeline and your budget. The quote is still binding after our survey.
Unpacking Service
Our unpacking crews don’t just drop boxes in rooms. We place furniture where you want it, break down and remove all packing materials, and leave your Medfield home move-in ready. This matters especially in Medfield’s older homes with steep staircases - you don’t want to be hauling empty wardrobe boxes down narrow colonial stairs the day after your move. We handle that.
Fragile & Art Packing
Fragile and art packing in Medfield runs $200-$900 and is where our custom approach shows. Medfield’s affluence means we’re regularly packing original artwork, antique mirrors, and heirloom china that has survived generations. We use acid-free paper, double-walled boxes, and custom-built foam inserts. For pieces that won’t survive standard boxing, we move to custom crating.
Custom Crating
Custom crating in Medfield runs $300-$1,600 depending on dimensions and fragility. This is essential for the Steinway pianos, oversized oil paintings, and antique furniture we see in Medfield’s historic homes and high-value new construction. We build each crate on-site or at our warehouse using measured cuts and shock-absorbing interior mounts. The crate protects through every low doorframe, tight corner, and long corridor your move requires.
Common Packing Problems We See in Medfield Homes
- Underestimating furniture weight in high-value colonials. Medfield’s homes typically contain solid wood pieces that weigh significantly more than particle-board equivalents. Without proper padding and crew sizing, these items scratch hardwood floors or damage doorframes during the tight turns common in older homes.
- Packing fragile art without custom crating. The long, curved driveways and tight corners on Medfield’s wooded lots create more jostling than a straight suburban street. Standard boxes fail here. We see damage that proper crating would have prevented.
- Failing to clear low-hanging branches before move day. Many Medfield driveways have mature oaks and maples growing directly over the apron. We routinely scout driveways in advance and stage with shuttle trucks when a 26-footer won’t fit. Out-of-town movers often learn this too late.
- Ignoring spring mud conditions on unpaved driveway sections. Medfield’s mud season softens gravel and dirt portions of long driveways. We carry protective boards and plan truck placement to avoid rutting your property or getting stuck.

FAQs - Packing Services in Medfield
Yes. We measure doorframe clearances during your free survey and pad both the frame and the furniture before disassembling pieces that won’t fit intact. In Medfield’s 18th and 19th-century homes near the town center, low clearances are standard, and our crews carry Milwaukee tool kits for on-site disassembly and reassembly. Call (855) 890-3455 for an exact plan - estimates are free.
We scout the building layout in advance, measure corridor widths and door clearances, and bring custom dollies and padding for the institutional-scale doors and floors. Medfield is the only town in our service area where we regularly pack for both traditional colonials and 19th-century adaptive-reuse buildings, so our crews are specifically trained for this dual challenge. Call (855) 890-3455 to discuss your unit’s specific layout.
Yes. We sell Uline boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, tape, and specialty containers at competitive rates, and we can deliver to your Medfield address. However, for high-value homes with heavy furnishings or significant fragile items, we typically recommend our crew handles at least the fragile and art packing - the cost of damaged heirlooms usually exceeds the cost of professional packing. Call (855) 890-3455 for a supply quote or partial-pack estimate.
We lay protective boards on gravel or unpaved sections, especially during Medfield’s spring mud season, and we scout tree clearance over your driveway apron before move day. If low-hanging oaks or maples block a full-size truck, we stage with a smaller shuttle vehicle and carry items to the street. This is standard procedure for Medfield’s wooded lots, not an extra charge. Call (855) 890-3455 to schedule your pre-move scout.
We custom-crate it. Steinway pianos require climate-controlled padding, shock-absorbing mounts, and a crate built to the instrument’s exact dimensions. We do not recommend blanket-wrapping or standard boxing for any grand or baby grand piano. Our Medfield crews have packed Steinways for moves between colonials, into State Hospital conversions, and out to long-distance destinations - each crate is built specifically for the piano and the route. Call (855) 890-3455 for a custom crating quote.
