What's the minimum for local movers in Burien?
2 hours of labor for the crew size you book. Most Burien local jobs run well past the minimum, so it rarely comes into play.

Yes. Saturdays book up first in Burien — reserve 2–3 weeks out for end-of-month Saturdays.
Do local movers in Burien bring boxes?
We can deliver boxes and supplies before your move at cost, or bring extras on moving day. Many Burien customers do their own packing and just hire us for the heavy lifting.
Can Burien local movers help with one or two items?
Yes — single-item local moves (couch, fridge, treadmill, safe) are common in Burien. We have a 1–2 hour minimum and bring the right truck for the item.

Yes — cargo, general liability, and workers' comp on every Burien job. COI issued for buildings that require one.
Will my Burien local mover take the bed apart?
Yes — disassembly and reassembly of standard furniture (beds, tables, dressers with mirrors) is included in the hourly rate.
Can I do a partial-day local move in Burien?
Yes — we book half-day Burien jobs (4 hours) when the inventory fits. Great for studios and small 1BRs.
What if my new Burien place isn't ready on moving day?
We can keep your stuff on the truck for a few hours or shuttle to short-term storage. Talk to dispatch the day before so we plan the right crew size.
How do I tip Burien local movers?
Cash or Venmo at the end of the job — $20–$40 per mover for a full day is typical in Burien, but never required.
