I hired Mountain Movers to move a piano from my garage to inside my house, going up several stairs. The movers are very strong, conscientious and friendly. I would definitely hire them again!

From the moment we contacted Doug Kentfield requesting an estimate, to his congenial visit with us, to the moment we met the moving team, Jason and Gata, in our driveway promptly on time, we were impressed with the company’s professionalism and care in... moving our furniture. The movers were excellent problem solvers and were patient and helpful, respectful and communicative throughout the day.Over seven hours later they were tired from their efforts but they and we were very pleased with the results. We wholeheartedly recommend Mountain Moving Company to you.read more

Mountain Moving was very responsive and helpful. We had to move a large, heavy gun safe out of our basement up challenging stairs. It was hard to find someone just to consider the job. Doug came over and figured out a way to do it with specialized... equipment and very strong workers they have.They were able to fit us into their busy schedule pretty quickly, so we could send the safe off to its next home. We really appreciated everything!read more

The Mountain Moving gentlemen who moved us couldn’t have been more courteous and skilled. Prompt, careful of all our belongings- including our piano-, and done in less time than the estimate- what’s not to love? Highly recommend!

My nonprofit organization recently worked with Doug's moving crew to coordinate the move-out of our building and into storage while we right size to a better office. Doug was helpful in answering questions, following up on needed information, and... responding to our concerns quickly and professionally. His team was flawless and fast on our moving day, finishing up the work early and under budget,. They also coordinated the efforts for the discarded items to the dump, eliminating extra hassles and time for our staff. We have also worked with Shannon in the business office to take of billing, and those interactions have been helpful, courteous and professionally managed as well. We are so grateful for the excellent work ethic and follow through from everyone at Mountain Moving & Storage, and we look forward to working with them again.read more

Excellent move from beginning to end. I’ve worked professionally with Mountain for over 20 years and was always impressed with their low claims ratio. This was the first time I got to experience it personally. The crew was outstanding and the packing was... superb. We didn’t have a single damaged item in our move. We are upper happy and impressed. If you want or need a flawless move, please do not hesitate to contact Mountain to have the job done right.read more

Great experience. Professional, did not cut corners. Had another local company cancel on me the day of my planned move and had already received a quote from Mountain Movers prior to the other company’s cancellation. Called them and asked if they could... move me ASAP and they were there the next morning. No nonsense, rapid move, never had to redirect their movers back on task. Highest recommend!read more

They were a joy to work with and took great care of our belongings. Thank you!read more

Mountain moving and storage performed flawlessly with our local move. Our consultation was very helpful to determine how to get ready to move and what to prepare for.

The workers moved a restored juke box filled with CD’s that couldn’t be jostled too much, or I would have spent hours re-organizing them. It was very heavy and awkward, yet two of them handled it no problem. It was moved between two residences smoothly.... Initially we were not sure if it would take three people to move it, so a third mover was there, but went unneeded. The good news was that they were honest and did not charge me for the third person. I would have paid, since he was on the premises, and they refused to charge me. THAT is why I will hire them again in the future should I need to. Honest, efficient, personable work...the way it should be.Joeread more

My husband and I would like to thank Ed and his crew for the wonderful job they did moving our 10x10 shed today. We feel it was a very good price for the service. Though it was a lot of hard work they put in and maneuvering around they had to do, they... maintained great attitudes and were friendly. They work very well together. We also want to thank Doug for his timely responses to us through e-mail. We will definitely recommend Mountain Moving and Storage to others who may need a building moved or moving in general. We are sure your quality of service would be the same. Thank youRichard and Elaine Maceread more

The gentleman I talked to on the phone to arrange a move didn't seem to have a good handle on what was going on. Had to call 4 times to check on my delivery because he wasn't sure where his crew was or when they had an opening. The moving crew was... phenomenal. They unloaded my entire 26' truck (due to an injury I had) in only an hour. No broken items and they were more than willing to be gentle with the more delicate items and even moved things into the rooms I asked for to ease the hassle of doing it myself. Great job guys I'm impressed.read more

Great experiences with Mtn Moving. I have used them twice - once when they were assigned to my military move from WA to HI, and a second time when I chose them for a move from one point in Tacoma to another.I can't comment on pricing for the first move... (paid for by military), but the second move's pricing was very fair. James (estimator) arrived as scheduled, provided a written estimate and tentatively scheduled a moving day. A 'what-to-expect on moving day' PDF was provided. He offered to provide boxes and packing materials, if needed.Movers (Todd, Tua, Fah) arrived on time on moving day. Walked thru, discussed basic plan and they got to work. Watched the guys move all items and they used standard equipment (carpeted dollies, pads, tie downs, etc). Everything was handled carefully and nothing was thrown or dropped. Load up time was less than estimated and very smooth. Unloading at the new house took even less time.All in all, an excellent experience. Simply put, the service provided was the service promised. I think prepping for moving day is 80-90% of what makes things go smoothly. We had everything boxed up, labeled, and staged by the doors of each room on moving day. Clothes taken out of closets and dressers and boxed up. Read thru the "what-to-expect" PDF and transported prohibited items ourselves before moving day (open chemical containers, alcohol, high value items). Everything you leave for the movers on moving day to deal with adds TIME. That, in turn, will increase your final cost, or torpedoes the whole move because of some showstopper.read more

We had a wonderful experience with Mountain Moving! The initial consult was informative and easy.

My wife and I scheduled these guys to help us with our local move. We have used several local companies in the past and have never been happy with the result, hence why we kept trying someone new. These guys are my goto recommendation if you need... assistance moving. I called and reserved a team of 4 and two trucks about a week before our move. They let me know the price estimate and gave us the estimate time they would be there. They called to confirm the day prior and called the morning of to let us know they were on their way. The guys that showed up (Mark, Gabriel, Robert, Jesse) were polite and professional and knew what they were doing. We showed them what needed to go and they quickly got to work. They treated our stuff just like it was there own. They worked quickly and efficiently. Moving is always stressful, these guys made at least this part of it easy. Instead of shopping around for who may be the cheapest, save your self the hassle and call these guys to take care of your stuff.read more

Expert Tips from an International Relocation Specialist

 

1. Prepare Important Documents:

Experts recommend creating a copy of all your important documents prior to moving overseas. Scan documents including medical records, marriage certificates, birth certificates, passports and drivers’ licenses. If you have access to a smartphone, there are many free apps that scan and save documents as PDFs. Save those files to a hard drive and carry them on you when traveling abroad. International shipping poses a ton of risk, be sure you have a copy of your most important documents.

2. Arrange Visas and Check US Customs:

Follow the proper procedures for obtaining a visa for you and your family members. This is an important document that allows you to reside in a certain country for a period of time. It is a crucial step you need to take before the overseas movers show up. Also, have consideration for what’s required to gain customs clearance, which means avoiding bringing items into the airport or vehicle (if driving through the border) that are deemed contraband. US Customs and Border Patrol frequently detain people who attempt to transport items such as alcohol, food (raw and prepared), hunting trophies, plants and seeds, fruits and vegetables.       

3. Get Your Finances in Order:

It is recommended to open a bank account with an international bank. Reserve money in that account for any emergencies you may face abroad. It’s crucial to notify your main bank of your move so your debit and credit cards are not frozen because of strange activity. Financial institutions have invested heavily in cybersecurity for their users, any sudden questionable activity will be flagged immediately. 

4. Arrange Shipping Services:

We can provide you with recommendations for a company that handles move management. It is best to speak with them in arranging shipping services for all your household goods. It is a good rule of thumb to only bring on the essential items you will need the first week at your new destination. Everything else can be shipped which is why we highly recommend our short and long-term storage services.
