Awesome guys showed up and displayed efficiency, and compassion. Thank you Patrick and Cesar!
EXCELLENT customer service. Doug was a thorough listener, professional, and seasoned. He provided me with a quote on the spot and there were no extras tacked on. He found a date in which I could save money and this meant a lot for my family.
I’ve called around to many other moving companies and it sounds like eager salesman trying to make a buck. Doug prioritize me and we had a really nice chat. 5 stars did the great service.
These guys did an excellent job! I was moving my elderly sister to assisted living from her home. They came at the time they said they would and called to say they were there. Once it was determined what was being moved they efficiently got everything out. They were VERY careful in not damaging anything in the house or what was being moved. Very professional and courteous. I would recommend them to anyone.

The city of Tacoma has tighter parking rules than its surrounding suburbs. If your building is in a Residential Parking Zone, moving trucks can park for only 2 hours, or they may get a ticket. This can happen in areas like the Stadium District or Wright Park.
Tacoma’s Permits and Development Services portal allows residents to apply for a temporary on-street parking permit. It also lets residents reserve curb space for a truck. According to the City of Tacoma’s parking page, “The Residential Parking Program is designed to provide parking privileges for residents… to park beyond the time limits. Vehicles with permits are exempt from citations… but must adhere to the posted regulations.”
Manage utilities with Tacoma Public Utilities and watch for connection fees. Some waterfront condos charge admin fees of several hundred dollars. Realtor Catt Johnson advises: “Locate your main water shutoff, electrical panel, and sewer cleanout. In a small leak or outage, minutes matter… Test smoke and CO alarms; ensure your address is visible from the street.”

Restricted parking and long carry distances raise your moving costs. According to Angie’s List, “Long carry fees are incurred when a moving truck isn’t able to park close to your home”. Consumer Affairs notes, “Some movers include a fee if they have to walk more than 75 feet from your home to the truck”. We inform you about those fees in advance.
Yes, it’s important for Tacoma movers to coordinate with building management beforehand. Mountain Moving and Storage notes that condos may require insurance certificates, elevator reservations, or scheduled moves during set hours.
