Long distance Federal Way, Washington movers
Planning your long distance move to or from Federal Way, Washington, is a significant task. If you haven’t moved recently, you may be overwhelmed by the to-do list. Finding a great moving company to partner with will ease the tension, and Three Movers would like to offer some tips to help with your search.
Long distance movers are regulated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), which is part of the Department of Transportation. When you evaluate movers, look for a DOT ID number in their advertising and on the company website. It's a good indicator that the company follows the applicable rules for interstate moves.
Always get a written estimate and ask the mover to come to your home to walk through and look at everything before submitting their quote. This is one of the FMCSA requirements, but some companies will ask you to skip the step. The visual inspection helps them create a more accurate rate quote and a thorough inventory. That inventory comes in handy if anything gets broken or goes missing during the move, so hold on to your copy.
Local moving companies in Federal Way, Washington
Finding an excellent local moving company when you plan a move in Federal Way, Washington might start with some referrals from friends or family members. When you are evaluating the recommended company, ask questions about how long they have been in business and if they have ever changed company names (sometimes a name change is done to obscure lousy publicity). Make sure you get a copy of their business license and corporate insurance. Ask for current customer references if the person who referred you didn't move recently since employee turnover might impact the service level.
How much does it cost to move to or from Federal Way, Washington?
The cost of a local move is determined by how much time the mover needs to complete the job. The quote will usually indicate the number of movers and number of hours, along with the price. Often a local move price will be under $1,000, but it always depends on how much stuff is being moved, and other factors impact the total moving cost.
Long distance moving prices are based on the shipment's weight and the move distance, plus services like packing, bulky object moving, and storage fees, if applicable.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Are Your Initial Estimates Accurate?
The initial estimate that you will be getting after the initial consultation call is fairly accurate, especially if the moving company is in the industry with years of experience. However, the estimate will be more accurate once the physical inspection is done. This is because the moving company can assess your items and your location in person, rather than just basing the cost on the information given over the initial consultation call.
How Advanced Should I Start Planning My Move?
A two to six week time period is ideal for preparation and strategizing the details of your move. It is also ideal if you want to have the move date that you wanted.
You should contact the moving company during the first week of your set planning period to jumpstart your moving process.
When Should I Move To Federal Way?
The best time to move into Federal Way, Washington is during the months of September all the way to November, specifically on October. During this time, there are little to no tourists so it will be less busy for the city. Because it is not within the summer season, the moving companies are less busy as well.
Why Is Federal Way A Good Place To Move In?
Federal Way is a city in King County, Washington, located within the Seattle metropolitan area. Living in Federal Way offers residents a dense suburban feel and most residents own their homes. In Federal Way there are a lot of restaurants, coffee shops, and parks so recreation and socialization is not a hard to do thing in the city. It is rated high in terms of diversity within its residents. Many families and young professionals live in Federal Way, and the public school is considered “above average”.
Can I Change Services On the Day of My Move?
It depends on the agreement with your moving company. As long as the service changes are reasonable and won’t be affecting the move immensely, it can be accommodated.
Are There Items That Won’t Be Loaded By The Moving Crew?
You can check the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) website for the specifics of what you can and can’t bring during your move.
Some of the items that won’t be loaded by your moving crew are plants, animals, chemicals, and flammable materials.
Is It Okay That I Am Not Physically Present On The Day Of The Move?
We understand that some of our clients are busy and won’t be there for moving day. It is entirely okay as long as there is a representative meeting us in your new home to sign off on the items once we arrive for delivery.
What Happens During A Full-Service Move?
A full-service move will require the full force of our moving crew so that you won’t have to lift a finger. We’d take care of everything for you!
Why Should I Get Insurance?
As a fully licensed moving company, Three Movers offers its customers with basic insurance which is free for everyone, but it doesn’t cover protection for all of your items. To have complete protection, that is an additional paid service available.
Is It Possible That The Initial Estimate Is Different From My Final Bill?
If the customer waived the physical inspection, it may end up that the initial estimate is different from the value in the final bill. This is due to the fact that there may more items or a larger house to cover than agreed upon during the initial consultation calls. Instances like these will incur extra charges especially if you are paying by the hour
I Feel like I’ve Been Victimized. Where Can I Complain?
For complaints regarding your moving company, you can always contact the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) at 1-800-832-5660.
