Questions about moving in Seattle

How many moving companies are there in Seattle?

75 carriers based in Seattle are registered with the US Department of Transportation to carry household goods for hire and updated their registration in the last two years. 47 of the companies listed here are licensed for moves to other states.

How do I check that a Seattle mover is licensed?

Ask for the company’s USDOT number and look it up in the government’s public record (every listing here links to it). For a move to another state the mover also needs an active out-of-state license, shown as an MC number. For a move within Washington, also check the mover with the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC).

Do movers need a license for a local move in Seattle?

Moving companies operating within Washington must hold a valid UTC permit and must give you a free written estimate, binding or non-binding, before the move. Check the permit in the UTC's company lookup, and report unpermitted movers to ReportIllegalMovers@utc.wa.gov or 360-664-1121. For complaints about a permitted mover, call the UTC at 1-888-333-9882 or file online.

What is the cheapest way to move?

Move less. Every item you sell before moving day is one less thing to pack, load and pay to carry. Price it to go, and let the price drop each day until you move.
