Gold Star Moving & Storage was incorporated in 1955 making it the oldest trucking company in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The City of Cambridge renamed the street where the company was located to honor nine of the city's soldiers that died in World War II. The nine soldiers were born and brought up on the street. One of the nine soldiers was the brother of Eugene O'Connor, the founder and owner of the company. To honor his brother and the other soldiers, Eugene renamed his company Gold Star Moving & Storage.
Over the years, Gold Star Moving & Storage has become a specialist in the moving and storage field, especially handling the daily problems of the Academic Community. Colleges and Universities are our specialty.
Eleanor O'Connor-Long, Eugene's daughter, is now president and chief operating officer at Gold Star Moving & Storage. The company has been working towards, (and will soon be) certified as a woman owned business. Companies will benefit from this association.
