I recently moved my elderly parents from the Seattle area to Texas. Quite the move! We started by doing the absolute wrong thing. We only got one quote from a moving company. That would be Bekins, of course. How this came about is they were the first ones we called. Mom and Dad were familiar with the company and our real estate agent also recommended them. I decided to just go with a "gut feeling". I know that sounds dumb but I wanted to make this as simple as possible for my parents and having 3 companies come in giving us quotes and then making an informed decision after gathering all the data would have been just another gigantic decision. They were already stressed to the max. Jim Dessin from Bekins arrived and walked us through the process. He was professional, friendly, and courteous. We three decided we would go with Bekins. Then I looked online at the reviews. Very scary! I sort of freaked out after having read some of the reviews on Bekins. I so wanted things to go smoothly for my parents. But then I calmed down. Hey, most folks are more ready to tell all about their horror story rather than when things go well, right? This is the first review I have ever written for ANYTHING. And I have gray hair. So everything went great! Brandon, our truck driver was super. We talked several times on our cell phones as we both drove to Texas. Everything arrived in fine shape. We were actually anticipating a few mishaps but we have done to report. Our packers, Christine, Nacho, and Robby, were so respectful with my folks. Thanks, guys. Truly everyone we worked with did a fine job. Phew. We did it. Sold a house and bought a house and moved my parents who are in their upper 80s to Texas. Bekins was a big part of this journey and they did a wonderful job.

My move was not a planned one and I only had 2 weeks to pull it off. Amy was very helpful in that she responded quickly to my emails after our initial contact. My work schedule has always been very tight, but fortunately I had one day when I could be home early enough for the relocation consultant (Jonathan) to come by for the estimate before my anticipated move-out date. I emailed Amy the same day to set up the (earlier than planned) consult and she was able to get back to me in less than an hour to confirm that Jonathan will be able to meet with me that day. Jonathan was pleasant and provided me the estimate in writing before he left. The day of the move Clint, Efrain and Jeff showed up right on time (8am) as Amy had informed me the day before. They were very careful with all my items, and I was very impressed with how well they packed my furniture with glass. They were polite, friendly and most importantly, efficient. When we got to the new place, Clint asked me where I wanted specific items to be placed and followed through with my instructions. Jonathans estimate was accurate. The movers were very hard-working and careful with all my belongings. I feel that my money was well-spent with the exceptional service I received! Pulling off a "surprise" move is definitely a feat - but these folks worked with me to make it happen. I highly reccommend their services!

We hired Bekins last minute after an unpleasant experience with another moving company. We were only 5 days from our move and realized we needed a new company, and Bekins stepped up to the plate in a huge way. Right from the very first phone call, I knew that we were in the best hands possible. Stephanie assured us that she would make sure everything was taken care of and that no matter what, our move would be smooth. Jon, who came to do our estimate, was unbelievably kind, professional, and thorough. This was our first time using movers, and Jon explained every detail to us. He was very reassuring and committed to working within our timeline. On moving day, the entire crew were beyond fantastic. Mark, Ty, Robert, and Justin loaded our belongings quickly and carefully. They made the entire process look easy (which it certainly isnt). They went out of their way to accommodate us at every turn, and again, committed to working with us to get us moved as quickly as possible. We are moving with kids to another state, and I can honestly say that thanks to Bekins, I am not worried about a thing. Thank you Bekins, you are the best!!

I recently moved from Seattle area to the southwest, a big move for me. Ive only used hired hands to move across town or moved myself. So this was a much bigger and complex scenario. I had already moved my things into a storage unit but was already out of state. I called Bekins and from the very first phone conversation I was impressed with their friendliness and professionalism. They helped me every step of the way and kept things as simple as possible. Its stressful enough and they keep a nice balance of communication. I really appreciated how friendly Amy was every time I called. She never made me feel as crazy as I felt. When the men arrived to deliver my belongings, they were exactly on time and efficient. They wanted to do a good job and they did!! Everything came in great shape. They checked every room before they left to make sure it was how I wanted it. I couldnt be any happier. I had an excellent experience with this company and am recommending them to everyone I know. Thank you Seattle Bekins.

We want to thank you for the great move from Lynnwood to Vancouver.Michael, and his partner Orlando, where nothing less then fabulous. What a great team! They took great care of not only our possessions but of protecting our floors and surroundings. They greatly exceeded our expectations.As you know, I have a prospective of the moving business that few have, having worked for Bekins in the 60s while I was going to school. But more significantly, my father, who was a 35+ year veteran of Bekins and would have been very impressed with the professionalism, skill and work ethic of these guys! Please convey our appreciation to Michael and Orlando for a job "well done".Your estimate was right on and very reasonable.Many thanks to you and your staff.

Bekins crew arrived exactly on time and ready to work. The two men were clean-cut, uniformed, and courteous. They worked efficiently but carefully to move my furniture, boxes of many sizes, and odd crates, and containers without damage to the goods or to my house. They reinforced taping and used shrink-wrap and moving blankets liberally. The crew arrived at my new place before I did, and quickly unloaded without damage. We proceeded to a small storage unit Id rented where they masterfully fit in all the remaining stuff. They stayed in good humor throughout the long day. Bravo!

Bekins Northwest made my cross-country move SO easy. The video survey of my house (pre-move) was way more convenient than trying to coordinate schedules with someone to physically come to my home. The Bekins employees were easy to communicate with and responded to me within 24 hours each time I reached out. Finally, my stuff was delivered on the second day of the 9-day estimated delivery timeframe - quick and in tact. After hearing the horror stories that my peers had after using other companies for their move, I will be using Bekins exclusively from now on.
