Move went smoothly and they showed up on time. Both movers Quinn and Matt worked great together and treated my stuff with care. Special shoutout to Matt for assembling my bed — he was thorough and clearly knew what he was doing. I’m very happy with the whole crew and the company. Highly recommend! Thank you to all!

Could not have asked for a better team to get me settled and make me feel welcome. Matt was super accommodating with coordinating with the drop off of my shipping container, and the team kept in communication with me through the whole process. They were quick and efficient, very respectful of my stuff, and overall just cool guys that made the whole experience feel effortless. Highly, highly recommend!

Quin and Ivan where very careful with my belongings, also very courteous.
Ivan left his flat head tool and I would like to return it. How can I do that? He was kind as to put the table together.
Quin, the young fellow was on time, friendly and kind. Quin, was kind as to put my bed frame together. Great job guys! I recommend this company!

Get To Know Us

What can a customer expect after booking with you?

Once a booking has been made you can expect a confirmation email and text, if we receive a response no later than the day PRECEEDING the date of the booking, we will follow up with questions about the specifics of the job, start address, end address, full or partial move-out, items of note, total travel distance...etc. After this, we will contact you 24-48 hours before your job is scheduled to confirm there are no last-minute changes, and we will see you for your service!

What can a customer expect on moving day if they hire you?

You will receive a text stating we are on our way to your starting location, and additional communication should any complications arise, including the nature of the issue, and how we plan to resolve it.

How should a customer prepare for moving day?

Remember that the more efficient your preparation, the faster our team will be able to complete your move! With that in mind, consolidate the items you'll want loaded onto your rental truck into as few rooms as possible, as close to the exit you think will be best to take them out from. If you are packing yourself, fuller, smaller boxes are typically a better idea than larger, emptier ones. The tighter the pack, the safer the pack! If you have children/pets sequester them outside the work area.

What types of moves have you handled?

Our founder has long experience with moving & storage, in every capacity from mover, to team lead, to driver, to supervisor before forming MoveMaker NorthWest and has handled mansion moves, and studio apartments with aplomb, professionalism, and a smile! Our team has been hand-picked and trained by himself, and his senior staff to carry on this story of excellence.

What's your favorite part about being a mover?

Moving is often one of the most stressful periods of someone's life, personal circumstances aside, the minutia of the process and the sheer volume of ALL the objects that make up our homes, the prospect of handling it alone can be a nightmare. I love feeling like I've come to the rescue for someone, and really made it a manageable, even enjoyable experience!

What training do you provide your crew members?

All crew members receive training from our senior staff and owners before their first move, from there they receive on-the-job training on the specifics of safe load/unload procedures, maneuvering around entry/exit ways, and how to move and work most efficiently on-site!
