Rainier Moving Company

These guys are great movers! I moved from West Seattle to Kirkland and it took about 3 hours. They didn’t start the clock until the got to my place & there were no extra mileage fees. It was under $ 300 for the move & I tipped the guys another $ 100. They earned it. The guys were fast & efficient & very pleasant to be around. Also very easy on the peepers. Super helpful! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them or use them again.

Great service. Jay and his crew are awesome with their work. I did not see them slow down at all during the whole entire time they were at our old and new place. I would recommend using them. It’s always good helping out with startup company anyway!

Our move was super last minute and it was during Christmas week. I went on Google to search for movers near my area, Kent, WA to be exact. Found these guys on Unilocal,usually I like to make sure businesses have a legit website but this company didn’t, but after reading the reviews, I was all for it.
I called the number shown and I got a quick respond from Jay. I asked him if he had any availability the next day, which is the day before Christmas Eve and he kindly told me that he can provide a couple of guys and a truck to help me move. The latest was for 5pm. I was super happy that he was willing to help me, especially at a later time.
Jay provided me a special December rate and a solid answer so I confirmed and approved his services. I texted him with both addresses and he sent me a confirmation text that we are still on for the next day. I texted him the next morning to make sure we’re still set up and he quickly texted back with a Yes.
Got home as quickly as I could. It was pouring rain! Two gentlemen were already near the old apartment just waiting. They both kindly greeted me. I told them that all the boxes were taped, labeled, and ready to be put in the truck. They were super quick and careful. They knew what they were doing. They were super careful with both plasma TVs. Everything was put in place and nothing was broken.
Took about 45 minutes to get everything in. I was also helping as much as I could. Once we were ready to go to the new apartment, I lead the way and it helped all of us since I knew a quicker way to get there without hitting traffic and the freeway. Everything went well and we arrived to our new apartment.
3 flights of stairs is crazy and I can only imagine how they managed to get everything in my new apartment, without stopping. They were on beast mode! Got everything in and also set back up my bed at no problem. Made sure that I was happy with where they were putting things. Confirmed any last minute changes before they left. I was completely satisfied. I gave them a fat tip just because they deserved it. I always put myself in the other person’s shoes. Good service goes a long way.
I will most definitely recommend them to friends, family, and people I care about. I love my new apartment as well! Makes a huge difference to me, especially when the guys also complimented my new place.
Thanks guys! Ya’ll are great!
PS. If you need a website, let me know.

This company is absolutely the worst moving company ever. We had a week to move. I called various movers and checked rates availability etc. I spoke to the owner, Jay at Rainier and they we’re able to schedule us with a fair rate. Also promised nothing but complete professioal move (since last time we moved our movers spit sunflower seed shells all over our new house and old. I mentioned thos to Jay and he said no way would anything like that happen with his movers). On Saturday I texted Jay to confirm our meeting time on Sunday. He texted me back and said we we’re on for 10am. I get a text on Sunday saying his movers we’re running late and wouldn’t be to our place till 10:30~12:30 pm. I was a bit put off but this can happen. At 10:31 am… I received a TEXT (yes text… no phone call) saying the movers we’re not coming AT ALL. I was completely taken back. This man can’t even call my husband or myself! They are just cancelling us and we have to be out by midnight! Two kids that have to start their new school tomorrow. My Husband and I both have to go to work. Wow! My husband and I call and call and call. No answer. Just the excuse that it is a scheduling issue and Jay is taking all the blame. Again thru a text. Finally Jay calls. An hour and a half later. This is sunday… no moving companies open. He now has a whole other story. Jay says he’ll move us anytime this week for $ 50 an hour not $ 90. Seriously!!! Wow. Then he says he has another truck and he’s trying to find someone to help and that he’s going to do it himself. I also state my Husband is here and can help. I’m thinking «okay, this is going to happen… calm down». Nope never heard from Jay or Rainier moving again. Left us hanging in a very big way. Also cost us an extra $ 1200.00 for rent because we were not out by the time our lease was up. Plus another $ 1150.00 in wages for my husband and I missing two days of work… moving ourselves Monday and Tuesday. I could go on and on re: financial costs. We have contacted the BBB and reported this company and our Lawyer. Do not use this company unless you wanted to be stranded on moving day. I’m not over exaggerating this story. In fact I’ve left a lot out. I do not want this to happen to another family. Moving is stressful enough.

They don’t have a web site, and that made me wonder, but they were recommended by my building management — and they were great! They moved a roomful of furniture from suburban Seattle to downtown for me. As I called around for quotes from a few different movers, Rainier was the first to respond (no one actually answers the phone any more) and they gave me the best price. They were very courteous — on time, and called to let me know when they were 20 minutes away — moved everything carefully, no damage to furniture or walls — and when they were done, asked if there was anything else I wanted moved around while they were there!

Nobody likes to move. It’s stressful, complicated and often expensive. With the awesome folks at Rainier Moving, however, they made things really easy!
From the pleasant and smooth booking process, to their excellent communication before the big day, finally, to the polite, professional and AWESOME crew of guys who moved me – it went perfectly!!!
And, the price?! So reasonable!!!
I will be referring these guys to everyone and anyone who needs help with their move. I’ve never had a better experience! Thank you so much, Rainier Moving!!! You guys ROCK!

I would definitely recommend Rainier Moving Company for anyone making a move, small or big. I have used these guys twice now and will again if ever needed. When I moved out of my college house, and when I purchased a new bedroom set. They treated all of my furniture, new and old, with the upmost care! They answered all my silly questions, and where available when I had them. They were very timely, which made the moves much easier. I am a small business owner myself, and encourage everyone to support small local businesses around us. Thank you Rainier Moving Company!

Scheduling conflict they were suppose to be at location to pick up at 1:15 and had to go later. Said would be at location between 4 – 5 pm and finally got there around 6:10 pm. Two guys to move a upright piano. They had to have help moving it out of house and then finally got to drop off location around 7:30 pm. They struggled to get piano out of truck. Finally managed to get it down ramp after much effort. After getting it over lip of doorway finally got it into house. The 2 guys were very nice but I really think they should have had 3 guys because they had such a hard time. The piano had a few nicks out of it from the move. I also found a piece of wood that got torn off from bottom of piano at doorway. I asked if I would get a discount for them being so late and the owner on phone said he would see what he could do. When it was time to pay they didn’t give me any discount and the piano was damaged. I would definitely not recommend this company to move anything heavy. The people were very nice though, even though it took them all day and my whole day of plans were screwed up. I also thought it was weird to write the check out to the delivery guy instead of the company.

Fair pricing. Good service.
The guys showed up on time, ready to work. No complaints, hard working, and did a great job of moving a handful of delicate items (huge mirror, a very old picture frame, glass table, etc.).
The company is reliable and honest. I had so many other companies who were trying to get more money out of me than what was necessary, and I’m glad that Rainier didn’t do that with me. No stupid questions about how many boxes I had, no hiring unnecessary men or bigger trucks.
I will definitely use them again for my next move.

I have used this company twice. They came to my 4 bedroom house in Lakeland Hills to move everything into storage as my new house wasn’t ready to move into yet. Andrew and his guys were super fast and treated my family’s stuff with care. A week later, I called them up to move everything from storage into my new house. I worked with Andrew and his team again and they went extremely fast and they were able to get everything done faster than my husband and I thought. They even took off their shoes when putting stuff upstairs since the carpets were brand new! I highly recommend them.

I recently used this moving service to move my office and can’t recommend them enough — whether it’s to move a home or office. They are extremely professional, conscientious and obviously care about the level of service provided. Great guys who do an excellent job!

I hired rainier moving to move my 2 bedroom apt, they worked really hard and got it done a lot faster than I thought. Not only was the job done efficiently and quickly but they were also thoughtful. All my things were treated with care as if they were theirs. It wasn’t awkward like I thought it would be actually it was a very enjoyable experience. You could tell these guys loved their job and their customers. The other plus was that Andrew the driver was very friendly and really cute, but completely professional. I will definitely use them again when I need to move and recommend them to my friends and family.

Thoroughly impressed with Rainier Moving; they arrived at my house on time, were incredibly quick and efficient, and had my move completed in 4 hours (this includes the hour long drive to my new place). They saved me a ton of stress, not to mention the physical aches and pains of moving. I would highly recommend Jay and his team, and I will definitely be calling them for my next move.

Complete rockstars. Extremely professional, and obviously veterans in the field. Everything you would dream for in good movers. They called about 30 min prior to my appointment to let me know they were on their way, and asked if I would be ready or needed more time, and then asked if they could arrive early. I said yes. The appointment was for 8:00. I only had a small one bedroom to move, they were done by 8:04 (they were early, but basically ran between house and truck, I was impressed). Everything was wrapped and properly strapped in. Not only was it a last min move, but they were able to make a second stop to pick up a couch I had on hold as well. So they packed my stuff in Snohomish, drove to Ballard to pick up a couch, and then to West Seattle to move in. I highly highly recommend them for big moves or small moves. Love these guys!

Jay and his team moved our 4-​bedroom house to our new place a week ago and did a terrific job. They were on time, friendly and efficient. These guys were nothing but gracious and upbeat even though they put in a full day of heavy lifting. Jay is honest and truly committed to providing top notch customer service. It was a bonus that the cost was less than the brand name companies, and they earn every penny– I definitely recommend them!

Jay and his crews have moved me a total of four times over the past year. Each time Jay listened carefully to my requests, and made sure they were honored. The guys were efficient, speedy, and careful with my belongings. I fully recommend these young men for any of your moving needs.

The crew is awesome. They arrived on time. The whole moving process was handled professionally and efficiently. The crew deserves 5 stars.

Rainier Moving Company was exactly what I needed to get my move done! Every time I spoke with Jay, the owner, he was attentive to my requests, answered any questions I had, was very easy to get a hold of and was extremely on top of things. I think the best thing about this move was their efficiency. I was impressed with how quickly and safely they loaded and off loaded my belongings. They were careful with all of my things, so I was able to relax and enjoy moving into my new place. It was such a pleasure dealing with someone who genuinely cares and is always seeking out what could make things easier on me. Without a doubt I will be using this awesome company again and will refer to anyone else looking for the best services out there with a very reasonable price.

Jay, the owner, and his two crew members came through for me this morning at the last minute! They arrived 15 minutes early and were finished in less than 2.5 hours — I moved from Auburn to West Seattle. All my furniture arrived in one piece :) They offered to help set up once everything was moved into the new place. They’re super fast and efficient, not to mention friendly and professional. And the prices are very reasonable. I’d definitely recommend their services to anyone and will be referring friends and family for sure.

Rainier Moving Company is great for local relocation in the Seattle area. I used them for a move from Issaquah to Tacoma and couldn’t believe the ease and efficiency of their work. They were finished in about two hours start to finish! They are also very helpful with disassembling large furniture items if need be. I would definitely recommend these guys to anyone in the area and will use them again if and when I move!
