Tacoma Movers & Junk Removal (Plus the Seattle-to-Tacoma Run)

Local Tacoma moves and junk hauls at our standard rates, plus the Seattle-to-Tacoma run we make weekly: loaded in the morning, down I-5, unloaded by afternoon, flat quote the whole way.

📍 37 miles from our Kirkland base · 50 min via I-405 & I-5 ★ 4.9 on Google 🕗 Open daily 8am–10pm

Tacoma is the best real-estate decision half of Seattle hasn't made yet, and we work both sides of it: local moves across Stadium District, Proctor, and Hilltop at $119/hr for a 2-man crew, and the Seattle-to-Tacoma run as a flat quote, one crew door to door, delivered the same day. Junk rides the same truck either way.

How the Seattle-to-Tacoma run works

We load in the morning wherever you are: a Capitol Hill walk-up, a Bellevue tower, a Kirkland townhome. Everything gets blanket-wrapped and strapped like a cross-country haul, because I-5 through Fife has opinions. Then we drive, you drive, and by early afternoon we're unloading at the new place. Tacoma's best blocks were built a century ago, so we come ready for them: Stadium District and North Slope craftsmans with steep porch steps and detached garages off the alley, Proctor foursquares with staircases that pinch at the landing. The quote is flat and agreed before we load (a 1-bedroom typically $450–$700, a 2-bedroom $650–$1,000), and it does not grow on the drive down.

Don't pay to move your junk 37 miles

The smartest money in a Tacoma move is spent on what you leave behind. We're junk haulers as much as movers, so the purge happens the same morning: the futon that isn't making the cut, the shelf you've moved three times out of guilt, the boxes you never opened after the last move. We load what you keep, haul what you don't, and the truck heads south lighter and cheaper. Single items start at $89 and a full 16-ft load runs $1,299–$1,599. Already in Tacoma and just need junk gone? Text photos to (206) 609-5581 and we'll fold your pickup into our next run down.

Why everyone's making this move

The math writes itself: a Seattle 1-bedroom's rent covers the mortgage on a Proctor craftsman, and Tacoma keeps getting easier to live in, with the T Line light rail running through Hilltop, the Sounder leaving from the Dome District, and Point Ruston turning the old waterfront into a boardwalk. Our job is making the jump painless. One crew handles the whole move, your stuff never sits in a warehouse or changes trucks, and delivery lands the same day you load, so your first night in Tacoma is an actual night in Tacoma, beds assembled and every box in the right room.

Able to show up on short notice and were quick and thorough. Price was reasonable as well. And to top things off, very personable. Would definitely hire again.

He worked HARD, wasted absolutely no time, and somehow managed to be both incredibly fast and incredibly careful. If you're looking for someone reliable, efficient, professional, and genuinely kind, book Asuman. I would hire hi…

The movers I had lined up cancelled on me day-of... I was so lucky to have found these guys! They were incredibly fast, didn't damage a single item, and worked gracefully under chaotic conditions. I'll definitely be hiring them…

Moving in Tacoma: Quick Answers

How much do movers cost in Tacoma?
Local moves within Tacoma bill hourly: $119/hr for a 2-man crew, $159/hr for three, with truck, fuel, blankets, and dollies included and no stair fee on the Stadium District walk-ups. Coming down from Seattle or the Eastside instead? That's a flat quote, typically $450–$700 for a 1-bedroom and $650–$1,000 for a 2-bedroom, and our Seattle-to-Tacoma guide has the full breakdown. Text your details to (206) 609-5581 for an exact number in minutes.
Do you do local moves and junk removal within Tacoma?
Yes. Tacoma-to-Tacoma moves run at the same $119/hr 2-man rate we charge everywhere else, and junk pickups start at $89 with labor and disposal included. We're based in Kirkland, so a day or two of notice gets you the best slot; same-day works when a truck is already southbound, which is most weeks. Text your dates to (206) 609-5581 and we'll tell you straight.
Can you do same-day pickup in Tacoma?
Sometimes, and we'll tell you straight. Tacoma is 37 miles from our Kirkland base, so a same-day pickup only works when a truck is already headed down I-5, which is most weeks but not every day. Next morning is the realistic promise. Call or text (206) 609-5581 with photos and your dates, and you'll get a real answer, not a callback.
Where does junk from Tacoma end up?
Donation first: usable furniture, tools, and household goods go to local charities, and metal and e-waste go to recycling. What's truly done rides to the Tacoma Recovery & Transfer Center on the south side of town. Disposal fees are already inside our ranges: single items $89–$139, a quarter truck $349–$499, a half truck $649–$899, a full 16-ft truck $1,299–$1,599.
How long does a typical move take in Tacoma?
For a local Tacoma move, a studio runs about 2 to 3 hours, a 1-bedroom 3 to 4, and a 2-bedroom 4 to 6 with a 2-man crew at $119/hr; a 3-bedroom gets a 3-man crew at $159/hr and usually takes 6 to 8. Coming down from Seattle, add the drive: most 1-bedrooms run 4 to 5 hours door to door on the flat quote, 2-bedrooms 5 to 7.
