Bookkeeping for Chelsea Small Businesses
Bookkeeping and payroll for Chelsea businesses. A Merrimack Valley firm serving one of Greater Boston's most hardworking small business communities.
Bookkeeping for Chelsea
Chelsea businesses don’t have time for complicated processes or accountants who bill by the hour and take days to respond. They need books that are accurate, payroll that runs on time, and someone who actually picks up when they call. That’s what we provide as Merrimack Valley bookkeepers serving the Greater Boston area.
We handle ongoing bookkeeping, payroll, accounts payable and receivable, and catch-up work for businesses that have fallen behind. Everything happens remotely, which means no scheduling hassles and fast turnaround. You focus on running your operation. We make sure the financial side stays organized.
Monthly Bookkeeping
Monthly Bookkeeping
Ongoing bookkeeping with transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, and books closed every month. You get financial statements that show where you actually stand without spending your weekends in QuickBooks.
Payroll
Payroll
Pay runs processed, taxes deposited, quarterly reports filed, year-end W-2s handled. Massachusetts withholding and unemployment filings included. Your employees get paid on time and you stop tracking deadlines.
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Books untouched for months? We sort through the backlog, reconstruct what’s missing, and deliver a clean starting point. Most Chelsea clients start here before moving to monthly service.
AP and AR Management
AP and AR Management
Bills paid on schedule, invoices sent and tracked, collections followed up. The cash flow work that keeps your business running smoothly without you managing every payment yourself.
Chelsea Businesses We Work With
Chelsea sits between Logan Airport and the Mystic River, which means a lot of transportation and logistics operations run out of here. But the city also has restaurants, auto shops, contractors, cleaning companies, and service businesses that keep the community running. The common thread is owners doing real work who need financial support without the overhead of a full-time hire.
We work with businesses doing $50K to a few million in revenue. If you’ve been handling the books yourself and it’s become a problem, or if you had someone who left and you need coverage, we can step in and take that work off your plate.
Transportation and Logistics
Transportation and Logistics
Trucking companies, delivery services, warehousing operations. Chelsea’s location near the airport and port makes it a hub for moving goods. We track cost-per-mile, maintain records for compliance, and keep the books ready for whatever your business needs.
Restaurants and Food Service
Restaurants and Food Service
Chelsea’s restaurant scene serves the local community and draws people from across the metro. Tight margins mean you need to know your food cost and labor numbers. We track both and close the books every month so you see what’s working.
Auto Shops and Services
Auto Shops and Services
Repair shops, body shops, detailing services. We separate parts from labor revenue, track job profitability, and keep records organized for tax time. No surprises when April arrives.
Cleaning and Janitorial
Cleaning and Janitorial
Commercial and residential cleaning companies operating throughout Greater Boston. We handle payroll for crews, track job costs by client, and manage the invoicing and collections that keep cash flowing in.
Common Questions
You're based in Andover. Why would a Chelsea business work with you?
Bookkeeping happens digitally. Your location matters less than having someone competent who responds when you need them. We serve clients across Greater Boston, and Chelsea is part of that footprint. We're 30 minutes up I-93 if you want to meet.
What does monthly bookkeeping cost?
Starting at $199 per month based on transaction volume. We quote flat rates so you know exactly what to expect each month.
Do you work with restaurants?
Yes. Chelsea has a lot of restaurants. We track food cost, labor, and sales by channel so you know whether you're actually making money or just moving it around.
My books are a mess. Can you fix that?
That's how most relationships start. We clean up months or years of backlog, get everything current, then keep it that way going forward with monthly service.
How fast can we get started?
Usually within a week. If catch-up work is needed, we scope that first. If your books are reasonably current, we move straight into monthly service.
