Our Heritage

The Eastern Shipping Co. Story

What started as a small family business in 1971 has grown into a trusted moving and shipping company serving four key regions with the same family values that founded our company.

Founded in 1971

Eastern Shipping Co. began as a family vision to provide reliable, honest moving services to families in Connecticut. Our founders believed that moving your belongings should be treated with the same care as if they were our own.

Three Generations Strong

Over five decades, three generations of our family have expanded our services from Connecticut to Massachusetts, Puerto Rico, and Florida, always maintaining our commitment to personal service and family values.

Serving Diverse Communities

We're proud to serve both English and Spanish-speaking families across the mainland and islands. Our bilingual team understands the unique needs of every community we serve.
