What Spry Moving does

Spry Moving, legally E.A. SPRY & Co., Inc. d.b.a. SPRY Moving, is a private, family-owned moving and storage company founded in 1916 and headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts. The company serves Greater Boston and New England through residential moving, commercial and office relocations, laboratory and life-sciences moves, healthcare facility moves, education moves, specialty item handling, and storage. Its disclosed customer logos span life sciences, healthcare, financial services, legal, technology, nonprofit, government/historical, startup, enterprise, and residential customer categories.

Spry’s operating base is asset-heavy physical logistics rather than software infrastructure: it maintains an in-house fleet of 20 air-ride vans, 15,000 crates, specialized dollies, custom rolling wooden carts, reusable plastic crates, and four warehouses totaling more than 150,000 square feet. Core services include commercial project management, computer installations, furniture liquidations, lab equipment prep and packing, HIPAA-compliant healthcare packing, containerized and open storage, secure records and archive management, freight shipping and receiving, local and interstate residential moves, military relocations, white-glove service, packing, and specialty item moves.

The company monetizes through quote-based project fees for moving and specialized relocation services and through managed storage, records, and freight services; no standard public rate card is disclosed. Go-to-market is direct and sales-led, with dedicated project managers for commercial moves, web estimate forms and phone-based inquiry capture, client-logo credibility, referrals/testimonials, and a Wheaton Van Lines/Wheaton Worldwide agency relationship that extends service reach into interstate and military moves, including GSA CHAMP-related federal civilian agency work.
