About Wakefield
65+ Years of Service as Your Trusted
Workplace Solutions Partner

Who We Are

Since 1959, Wakefield Moving & Storage has built a reputation for doing what it takes to move businesses, institutions, and communities forward. What started as a local moving company has grown into a large scale operation delivering commercial relocation, warehousing, installation, and sustainability solutions across New England and beyond.

We’re not just in the moving business. We’re in the trust business. From day one, our mission has been simple: deliver unmatched service with integrity, speed, and care. And for over six decades, that philosophy has kept our clients, some of the region’s most respected universities, hospitals, laboratories, and commercial organizations coming back again and again.

Now Part of
Tobin Scientific
Wakefield Moving & Storage is now part of Tobin Scientific, enabling expanded reach and storage capabilities with over 600k square feet of storage space and fully owned and operated transportation across a fleet of 50 trucks, enabling transport of materials ranging from cryo to ambient.

Commercial storage and move support, including labs, offices, and higher education.

Wakefield is a network of expert teams operating under one roof:

Advanced Records
Management Software
Secure document storage, scanning, and shredding for government, healthcare, and enterprise clients.

Green Recycle
Reuse Organization
A global reuse program delivering cost savings and sustainability through donation and redistribution.

Our diversity isn’t just in what we do, it’s in how we think. We believe flexibility, responsiveness, and relationships are what separate a vendor from a partner. That’s why we operate without layers of red tape, making quick decisions that serve our clients best.
