About Seattle

Seattle is nicknamed the “Emerald City” because it is filled with greenery year-round. An abundance of rain keeps the city green throughout the warmer seasons, and it stays this way even during the winter months due to the many evergreen trees located throughout the city and surrounding areas. Admired by many nature enthusiasts, the backdrop to the city is abundant forests and mountains, and it is nestled between the Puget Sounds and Lake Washington. This makes it an ideal launching point to explore the natural beauty of the Pacific Northeast. It’s no surprise that there are currently over 730,000 people living within the city limits.

Seattle has something for everyone, and it’s easy to see why it is a popular destination. The city hosts numerous coffee shops (the home of Starbucks), breweries, and trendy restaurants. There are several interesting and iconic attractions including the Space Needle, Discovery Park, Chihuly Glass Garden, Museum of Flight, and the famous Pike Place Market. Sports enthusiasts can enjoy the Seahawks, Mariners, Kraken games or watch the Windermere Cup Regatta hosted by the University of Washington every spring. Seattle is also known for being one of the fastest growing technology hubs in the United States and is most famously home to both Amazon and Microsoft.

We are very pleased with the services by Gentle Giant. From Erik R. and Drew (managers) to the crew who did the moving, led by Kenny, they were all very courteous, efficient, skilled and knowledgeable. Couldn't ask for better service. They completed the whole move, involving a 150 mile distance, as low stress as possible. I'd recommend them in a heart beat.

The team at Gentle Giant were phenomenal. I couldn't have asked for a better moving experience. Rachel, the moving coordinator, was communicative and made sure everything was prepared along the way.The movers, Jared, and Sterling, were incredible. They were friendly, professional, skilled, and efficient. They asked all the right questions, treated all of our possessions with care, and made sure everything ended up where we wanted it. They handled bulky, heavy furniture through tight corners with amazing skill, and did it all under the estimated time.I cannot recommend Gentle Giant enough. You won't be disappointed if you choose them for your next move.

Kenny , Josue and Alex did beyond an amazing job. A peice of my couch wouldn't fit through my door so they hoisted up to my 2nd floor balcony!!! Can't say enough about how positive the whole experience working with Gentle Giant was. If you need someone to help you move, definitely go with these guys.

Josh, Rachael, Sterling, Ben, Javon, and everyone in the whole crew (I am leaving out some) were absolutely amazing from start to finish. They made such a stressful time with moving so easy and we barely lifted a finger throughout the entire process. We asked if we can help unload the truck but they had the whole process efficiently managed from moving everything from the 25th floor of a penthouse in downtown into a house so amazingly managed. We cannot recommend this company enough. Thank you so much!!
