History

Mercury Moving was founded in March of 1997, by two friends from Wayland High School. After graduating from college, Garry Hennessy and Ted Keenan brainstormed to come up with a business that would allow them to work with the public while using their business and engineering skills. In college, Garry had already started a small venture of hauling people’s trash and unwanted items. Ted saw this as an opportunity and developed a business plan and strategy to turn this trash hauling business into a cleaner transport business: a moving company. With only a truck, a trailer, and the goal of providing personal and efficient service, the two friends began a partnership that would soon become one of the fastest growing moving companies in Massachusetts.

In 2003, Ted left the company to pursue other interests. However, the ideals on which he based his strategy serve as the foundation for the top-notch service that Mercury Moving provides today. The two founders remain close friends.

In 2004, Jessica Hennessy became Garry Hennessy’s business partner, making Mercury Moving a modern day “mom and pop shop.”  The pair continue to be personally vested in maintaining the company’s award-winning reputation.
