Why us in Seattle

Puget Sound crews, Pacific Northwest systems.

Same systems as our LA flagship — chain-of-custody barcodes, binding quotes, full-value insurance — but dispatched by people who actually know Seattle.

South Seattle dispatch hub

Our Airport Way yard sits two miles south of downtown — minutes to I-5 in any direction. Real crew base, real parking, real ability to dispatch within 30 minutes of booking.

Hills and tight streets in our DNA

Capitol Hill, Ballard, Fremont, Queen Anne — this is hill-country moving. Narrow lots, switchbacks, on-street parking, and zero margin for error. Our crews train on it every week.

Condo and apartment specialists

Ballard condos, Queen Anne high-rises, Eastlake waterfront — tight hallways, loading docks with time windows, and resident-manager sign-offs are part of our routine.

Puget Sound coverage (Bellevue to Tacoma)

One truck to Bainbridge, another to Mercer Island, crews running to Redmond, Kirkland, and Renton daily. We quote all Puget Sound moves from the Seattle base without transfer fees.

All four services in Seattle

Local, long-distance, commercial, storage.

Whatever you're moving — across town, across the country, your whole office, or just the boxes you're not ready to unpack — same crews, same standards.

Real Seattle moves

What Seattle neighbors say.

Three of the 3,200+ moves we've completed in Seattle.

★★★★★
"Capitol Hill third-floor walkup with a corner bedroom no movers wanted to touch. These folks measured twice, angled the couch at the stairwell landing, and got it in. The whole move was two hours, and they even helped me hang a picture."

★★★★★
"Moving day in Ballard, and the crew worked around street parking like they'd done it a hundred times before. Knew exactly where to load, how to block traffic, and didn't dent the building once. Professional and fast."

★★★★★
"Long haul to Bainbridge Island with a full house. They loaded efficiently in West Seattle, took the ferry, unloaded perfectly. No surprises, no premium — just honest work and a crew that knew the island's narrow roads."

Questions, answered

Seattle FAQ.

Seattle-specific questions. For general questions, see the local-moves FAQ.

ABC Movers shipping box — bright red carton with ABC MOVERS branding
Do you handle Puget Sound moves outside Seattle proper (Bellevue, Kirkland, Tacoma)?

Yes. We dispatch daily to Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, Sammamish, Tacoma, and most of King and Pierce counties. Flat rate from the Seattle base — no transfer or mileage premium for regional moves under 45 miles.

Can you move through tight alleys and parking in Capitol Hill and Ballard?

That's most of our work. We scout access before quoting if it's unclear — we know the alleys, parking situations, and building codes in both neighborhoods.

What about moving to islands (Bainbridge, Vashon)?

We handle Bainbridge and Vashon regularly. The crew loads in Seattle, drives to the ferry, and unloads on the island. Ferry fees are quoted separately, but there's no premium on labor.

How do you handle Seattle's rain and street parking on moving day?

Tarps, careful wrapping, and crews that don't panic in November weather. We plan for on-street loading in Ballard and Capitol Hill — it's standard practice here, not an obstacle.

How much does it cost to hire movers in Seattle?

The cost of a Seattle move depends mainly on home size, crew size, distance, and access. Stairs, long carries from the truck, elevator reservations, and packing all add time. A move from a Capitol Hill walkup can take longer than a ground-floor home in Ballard. ABC Movers gives a binding quote before move day, so call 800-771-0151 or request a free quote online for an exact price.

How far in advance should I book movers in Seattle?

Book your Seattle movers at least two to four weeks ahead, and earlier for summer or the end of the month. Weekends and the last days of the month fill up first because many leases end then. Mid-week dates are usually easier to get. If you're moving on short notice, call ABC Movers anyway, because we often have crews open for last-minute local moves.

What moving insurance or valuation coverage do Seattle movers provide?

Basic released-value coverage is included with your move, and you can buy more protection. Basic coverage pays according to an item's weight, not its replacement value, so it may not cover expensive items fully. For moves that cross state lines, the federal FMCSA requires movers to offer released-value and full-value protection, so you can choose your coverage level. ABC Movers explains every option on your quote, and we recommend listing high-value items before move day.

Can ABC Movers pack my belongings for my Seattle move?

Yes, ABC Movers offers full and partial packing for Seattle moves. Our crew can pack the whole home or just the fragile items, like dishes, art, mirrors, and electronics, using proper boxes and padding. Many Ballard customers pack their own clothes and books and leave the kitchen to us. Tell us what you want packed when you request a quote, so the extra time is in the price.
