Real public reviews of Permit Puller on Yelp.

"I spent the entire week prior to when I needed the permit trying to get an update from Permit Puller. There had been zero communication since I placed the order. Then came the payment — I was invoiced $109, paid it, then a month later was sent another invoice for $249 saying their payment system screwed up and I now owe $140 more."

"The pricing is NOT transparent. I was never informed how much anything would cost. Then I got a charge for $222 from a company called Porch. The invoice only says 'Customer Payment' — no company name, no details. They do 10 minutes of work and charge over $200."

Why Cambridge moving companies switch to us

If you're running moves in Cambridge, here's the math.

  • ✓ $30 per permit, every permit. Do 10 Cambridge moves a month and you're saving $300. That's just by picking up the phone and calling us instead.
  • ✓ We know Cambridge's streets. Harvard Square, Central Square, Kendall Square, Porter Square, Inman Square, East Cambridge — narrow roads, resident-only zones, permit requirements vary by block. We navigate it so you don't have to.
  • ✓ Photo confirmation every time. We photograph the no parking signs after posting and send them directly to you. If a resident calls to complain, you have documentation. If your crew needs to confirm the space is cleared, they can check their phone.
  • ✓ $148 is the price. Full stop. No follow-up invoices. No surprise Porch charges. You see the total before you enter a card number, and your card isn't touched until the permit is confirmed.
