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.

Gentle Giant promises to deliver exceptional service to every customer, guaranteed (100% Crew Guarantee). Contact us anytime if you believe we have performed otherwise.

The movers were absolutely amazing, I had a couple of hiccups on my end and they rolled with the punches. They were so nice and careful with my items. They were so quick and efficient. Worth every penny. Thank you Josue, Paul, and Alex!

Amazing!!!!!!! My parents needed to move to assisted living and Gentle Giant were so kind and gave the most reasonable quotes. Eric and Cory were so helpful, we ended up needing to move more than what was originally quoted on the estimate but they got it all done within the lower end of the time range, they’re amazing, this company is amazing, hire them for everything

Excellent service from start to finish! We had a heavy couch that needed to be hoisted up and over a second floor balcony. Dominic took the call, requested photos and specifcs, and planned it out with the team. The crew members who arrived day-of were prepared, skilled, and courteous. Many thanks to Jared, Drew, Josh, and Johnny.

There are many difficult things about a loved one passing. Moving all their belongings out of their last apartment has its own set of emotional ripples. Brandon and Josh did an excellent job of communicating, taking good care of all items and being compassionate with me! I thank them, sincerely, for executing this task so professionally.

Kenny and his team were fast and careful. For our 1 mi in-Seattle move they did a great job wrapping and protecting our stuff and they completed the job 2 hours faster than quoted. Great folks!

They did an outstanding job and were efficient and professional. They did a great job handling my stuff and I'd hire again even with the small pricing hiccup below, because reliability is a massive deal when moving.Note: Edited review to remove comment about pricing issue -- pricing error was corrected promptly. Do pay attention to your contract and make sure that you are clear on whether travel time is included (and what the estimated travel time is, if you are paying for it, as it could get quite expensive).

First and foremost, the team is amazing. I have been working on the back end Erik and Rachel to secure a move-in date as well as booking the schedule. When the team arrived, I was blessed to have two amazing movers, Ben and Drew. They arrived and was capable of handing every situation. Needless to say, these giants made our move to a new office simple and amazing.Thank you team!- Partner in Employment / Adam Chau

I am very pleased to give my most enthusiastic recommendation for Gentle Giant Moving Company. Our crew (Kenny, Craig, and Corey) were friendly, efficient, and careful. All of our fragile belongings were packed with substantial padding and care, and our furniture was moved up several flights of narrow stairs without any damage to our new property or our belongings. The estimate they provided for the labor was on target and fair. Our destination had some parking challenges, and the crew navigated them with ease. We couldn't be happier with our move, and I will certainly look to use them again in the future for any Seattle area moves.

This is my third move with Drew and his crew. I can’t think of a task they would not do. So professional and efficient. My dog loves them too. I will call Gentle Giant whenever I move, and so should you!

I just wanted to give a shout out to the Gentle Giant moving team specifically Brandon and Josh for a quick turn around and awesome job. I had originally reached out to Awesome Movers who quoted me nearly 500$ more for the same move and same time slot. This just shows an honest and upfront value that this company provides. Will 100% choose this moving company again for future moves.

We would highly recommend Gentle Giant movers! They were happy to accommodate to all our moving needs and provide excellent customer service; protecting our floors at both properties along the way. They were on time and provided all curtesy calls as promised.

Brandon, Johnny and Paul were excellent. Showed up on time and were very accommodating when asked to move items “again”. Second time personally using Gentle Giant and have referred to others and will definitely use again if I move.
