The four guys worked non-stop and did all the difficult tasked we asked of them with ease. Highly recommend this crew!!!
Alexander L
To start with, very nice guys, which is perhaps why I trusted them far more than I should have. They carried things onto the truck without really assessing what needed to be loaded or getting a whole inventory of what heavy items might be, and ran out of space and left a lot of fragile things extremely exposed, with lots of items strewn about in the truck without securing them. I provided bungee cords, ropes and ratchet straps, and they only used a couple of ropes at the very end. I suck at packing, these guys do it professionally, and yet I had to reload much of the truck myself in order to get it remotely decent. Just as an example, I have an IKEA kallax with cloth/cardboard baskets that easily fit inside the cubes. For reasons i can’t fathom other than utter negligence and incompetence, they removed the baskets to just take up space and go flying around the back of the truck. Ive now had to delay my departure, staying up into the late hours of the night trying to correct their mistakes, before setting off on an extremely long trip. I’m hoping all of my worldly possessions won’t be destroyed in the process. This is an extremely stressful time, and these movers have made it much, much worse. I wish I had just had friends help me load it.

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!
