Seattle Residential Movers for Homes of Every Size
A house move in Seattle can mean a Craftsman in Wallingford with a long flight of front steps, a split-level in West Seattle on a sloping lot, or a family home in Magnolia at the top of a steep street. Our Seattle residential movers plan the carry, the parking, and the route before move day, so a full house goes out the door in a steady order.
Every crew is made up of full-time, background-checked Puget Sound Moving employees. Local house moves are billed by the hour for crew and truck, and there are no stair fees, elevator fees, or fuel surcharges.
Crew and Truck Sizes for House Moves
- 3 movers + truck: small homes and 2-bedroom houses
- 4 movers + truck: 3-bedroom homes
- 4 movers + 2 trucks: 3- to 4-bedroom homes
- 5 movers + 2 trucks: 4- to 5-bedroom homes
- 6 movers + 2 trucks: 5+ bedrooms and large homes
A free video estimate lets us see the house, the stairs, and the driveway, then recommend a crew that fits. Truck and fuel, blankets, shrink wrap, furniture disassembly and reassembly, and floor and door frame protection are always included.
Seattle Homes Bring Their Own Challenges
Hills and front steps
Queen Anne, Capitol Hill, and Magnolia have plenty of homes set above the street. Stairs and long carries only add time, and the right crew size keeps that in check.
Street parking
Where the truck can’t pull into a driveway, a City of Seattle Temporary No Parking Zone can hold the curb. Easels should be posted about 72 hours ahead.
Bridge and highway timing
A move from Ballard to Beacon Hill crosses the Ship Canal and runs along I-5 or SR 99. We plan start times to dodge the heaviest traffic.
Closing dates that shift
If the new house isn’t ready, we can hold your belongings in short- or long-term storage and deliver once you have the keys.
Moving In, Out, and Around the City
We move families within Seattle and to neighbors like Shoreline, Lake Forest Park, Edmonds, Burien, Renton, and Kirkland. If you’d rather not pack a whole house yourself, our Seattle packing services cover full, partial, or fragile-only packing. Heading farther away? See our long distance moving page.
House Moving Questions
How many movers do I need for my house?
Most 3-bedroom homes need four movers and a truck; larger homes may need five or six movers and two trucks. A video estimate gives you a firm recommendation.
Will you protect my floors and walls?
Yes. Floor and door frame protection is part of every Seattle move, along with blankets and shrink wrap for furniture.
What if something gets damaged?
Report it within 48 hours and we’ll repair or replace it under our 48-hour damage guarantee.
How far in advance should I book a house move?
Two to four weeks is ideal for most Seattle house moves, and four to eight weeks for summer. Short-notice dates are often available, so call if your timeline is tight.
What Customers Say
Real Google reviews of Puget Sound Moving residential movers, labeled with the office that did the move.
Referred by family “I hired Puget Sound moving after my parents referred me to them… The crew arrived promptly, had all the equipment needed, and clearly communicated with me on timeline expectations. The crew took extra care to properly wrap all of my belongings so that they would not get damaged. I was especially concerned about a arc lamp I had, But it’s arrived perfectly.”
Packed & moved “I will never move my own stuff again. Even just having them move the bed by itself made it all worth it. They wrapped and packed everything up and moved everything we asked promptly and professionally.”
House protected “The folks did a very personalized and a perfect job, very cautious not to damage house or paint at the source and destination.”
