I hired B & Z to handle my dad's move. Zac and Timothy were absolutely wonderful to work with! Fast, professional, and polite both in their communications with me and with each other. They took great care with packing and moving my dad's breakables and handled everything with utmost care. Didn't even complain when the building owner said they had to use the stairs and not the elevator for most of the move from the third floor. They were awesome, highly recommend. Best experience I have ever had with a mover. read more

I've hired B&Z four times now, and each experience has been flawless. They're polite, respectful, responsible, and careful with your belongings. Can't recommend them enough. read more

My experience was really a 3. 4 because I acknowledge move out really sucked for them + maybe I should have hired 3 movers instead of 2 for my small move I had to move from a 1br unit on the 3rd floor of a building with no elevator to a unit on the ground level. I got rid of a sofa and desk ahead of this so they didn't have to carry much down the stairs. Before I got rid of those, they estimated it would take 3 hours. The heaviest items that needed moving were: queen mattress, bed frame, 50 in TV, electric keyboard, 3 small dressers with stuff in them, wood coffee table. I got two movers. Their obstacles: The place I was moving out of have very narrow streets. They brought a big truck. Move out absolutely sucked for them due to 3 flights of stairs. I tipped them both well because of this. I maybe should have booked three movers but I was hoping they'd send two strong movers. Pros: They are super responsive and getting a quote was easy. They completed the move within the estimated timeframe. Friendly, communicative movers. Fair rates + good options for those who have small moves. Cons: I booked 8 am, the earliest available time. They showed up at 2 (not movers fault). The guy who booked me said I booked late morning/early afternoon when I called to ask for an updated ETA. I checked my emails and that wasn't the case. No biggie since I didn't have a lot of stuff. There was a strength/stamina imbalance between my movers. One lifted most of the heavy stuff himself and worked effectively. The other carried light stuff and worked a lot slower and less effectively. I think because of this, it was challenging for them to carry bigger items together. I booked on a weekday because the minimum hours required are fewer. Given I got rid of two of the heaviest items, I didn't think they'd need the full three hours. They completed the move around the quoted time, but I think they could have been faster if not for the above. I asked for a mattress cover, they didn't bring/use one. My queen mattress god dirtied in transit as a result. read more

B & Z Moving - Movers Near Me - Burien, Washington

Broke the most important item I was moving. I know accidents happen, but this was the piece I stressed about the most and made me want to hire movers in the first place. I brought this piece up first thing when requesting this service. So I wouldn't recommend them if you're moving special items or pieces like this. The item is a dresser covered in mirrors, I've attached the photo of damage. Apparently the drawers slid out as they moved it to their truck. (Which seems like a beginners mistake to me?) The movers were nice and felt bad about breaking it, but it was unfortunately bad service for what I requested. Also, probably minor in comparison, but one of the movers didn't wash his hands after using my bathroom, which I just thought was gross... bathroom etiquette, folks! Everything else was just okay, not good or exceptional. They took apart and put back the bed and tightened up the legs on the now broken dresser. The mattress was dirty, so don't expect protection for that, but it wasn't a big deal to me. The boxes that I labeled weren't all moved to the correct room. I know moving is hard, so I'd look around elsewhere for someone who treats your items with care! Good luck out there! read more

B & Z Moving - Movers Near Me - Burien, Washington

Changing to an average rating. Some cons: - one of them asked to use my bathroom but pretty sure they didn't wash their hands after -complained about how large my couch was to bring up the stairs and that I should sell it before I move again so nobody ever has to deal with that couch again -my white couch had a bit of red on it that I think was blood. I cleaned it off easily. One of them had injured themselves and they asked for a bandage so I gave them one. Overall still gave some stars for being on time, being faster than the estimate, communicating when they're on their way, and being affordable. Nothing was broken. read more

This moving company was simply fantastic! They arrived totally on time, were professional and courteous and amazingly efficient, motivated to do the work carefully and quickly. They hustled with a great attitude. As a team they cooperated and always were available if we had questions, or needed help. We will definitely use their services once we move out of our storage unit. read more

B & Z MOVING IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST! Zack & Cole arrived early, OMGosh imagine that! I was in awe, watching these two run up the ramp and load the truck! It appeared effortless to them as they efficiently loaded up items that the previous movers took twice as long to move in! Honest and dependable. Zack provided good detailed communication. The price was excellent and inclusive. No hidden fees. B & Z Moving's price was also hundreds of dollars less than every other moving company. I began my research months before my move because I was led to believe my move would be sooner. It was delayed. I began calling various movers for quotes. My research led me to find B & Z Moving. Several months later we booked my move. I was prepared to hear that the had price increased and it had not! Wow, Thanks Zack! I felt very good about Zack and my Intuition was right. I made a wise choice and YES I'd hire him again in a heartbeat! I'm so glad I found B & Z Moving!!! Two friends have also gotten his contact information after they met him the day I moved. Seeing them in action and being asked for a business card tells you what a great job they do! So readers be warned if you fill out some form (like Angi's list or such) be prepared for your cell off the hook. Here's what I found: You may be asked for a deposit upfront for a local move, travel fees and price quotes for 2-3 men plus the truck, weekends and holidays cost more and four-hour minimums. In the end, my research was that most quotes were double and one was three times the amount I paid with B & Z Moving! B & Z Moving outlines everything and there is no guesswork. For instance, one company was a few blocks away and told me I'd have to pay a $60 travel fee. I'm like you're up the road a few blocks really? and lowered it to $40. Another had an $85 travel fee because of where THEY were located it took an hour to get to my location, a good reason to hire locals. Although based on geographical distance you need to expect this fee. A few gave discounts, but you have to ask for them. As far as deposits go, I have only ever given a deposit when I moved across the nation. Uhmmmm I would NOT hire a local mover who asks for a deposit. Experience has taught me with movers to be prepared for additional charges and fine print fees. I share my experience your move may be different. I am certain the companies hounding me for business would have said that the price yada yada yada was that the quote was only good for X amount of time, taking advantage of you didn't book then and our prices have increased....as so many opportunistic businesses do today. The Truth is it's Greed. What I did find once I completed the form was I was called and fast-talked by most of them and quoted outrageous prices except B & Z Moving. Zack reviewed my quote and the price remained the same even though the actual move was at a later date. While yes in the moving industry weekends and holidays move days cost more and other variables will factor into the price, distance, service, and attentiveness for me, I'd recommend B & Z Moving hands down!!! B & Z MOVING IS THE BEST MOVERS IN TOWN! read more

I booked this company to help us with our move because I saw the good reviews on yelp. I'm glad yelp helped us find this company because it went smooth and on time! They arrived on time and were always in communication with us as they were on their way. Forgive me but I forgot the names of the two young men that helped us. Issac and Isaiah? I lost our receipt with their names so I forgot. They were amazing and didn't break anything. They helped my husband with everything and followed his lead. I helped with putting boxes on the carts and dollys and they helped moving it. We were done in two hours and were so happy about that because we had so much other stuff to do that day. We had no issues and will reccomended them to anyone we know moving in Washington! read more

Warning, please do not use this service unless you are expecting to be overestimated on the quote, when Joey notes "this is just an estimate," which now feels like he was just trying to get us to sign for a sale. At first, he seems nice and organized, but when we contacted him to discuss our experience he took everything personally, became extremely unprofessional as he continued to talk over myself and then my roomate, flip flopped from agreeing to give a discount due to our experience in one conversation to then changing it to " accepting our feedback" after talking with his movers and boss due to investigating. I appreciated completely that process, but I would have hoped that he would also take our experience into account like he presented he would, but in the end he didn't. Then when we brought up to his attention the flip flop, our experience with other movers doing the job with in 3.5 to 4 hours max (as we were moving from a 1 bedroom apartment at about 700 sq feet about .7 miles away) when they did it in 6 hours ($135 x 6 now) expressed clearly our concerns (at one point our movers were taking an extremely long time to come back up to our apartment between loads when the truck was just downstairs, noting even the movers were hoping for a trolley of some sorts to be in the truck from the company to help them [we even let the movers use our trolley at the pick up location], I saw the movers constantly carrying maybe one small bag of clothes (wasn't heavy) and a light side table (empty) =about 2 items at a time (for about 2 hours out of 6 hours) several times per trip (which stretched the time even longer), our concerns of the health of their works due to not having adequate tools from the company and best strategy for get the job done in a timely fashion, +, after all this and more, he came back and noted "we will not be giving you a discount due to meeting before the estimate (very corporate thing to do) and due to the movers working hard, but they would take the feedback. In the end, it didn't matter what the customers experienced or shared or were guided to believe, it wasn't about a fair investigation noted from Joey, it was about the company. Weird to say that, because I would expect more from a smaller company that was local to us. That was one of the major factors I chose them. I wanted to give business to a local vendor, instead of the major corporate branches, but in the end they treated us worse than we have ever been treated. He was disrespectful, childish, couldn't take feedback at all, used the word "bully" when he was actually the one being that way and condescending by saying things like "you are making it hard for me to want to give you a discount," when I was giving him the feedback and noted of experiences with other movers, speaking my name over and over and over again getting louder and louder to stop me from talking (which he also did to my roomate when I had to pass him the phone due to Joey's responses/actions [added example when I said his name he would say mine louder) and he even said that "he wasn't a slave" when I had to remind him to stop talking over me when the only reason that happened was because how he was talking to us/which was talking over us +. Who says that? I even had to tell him, those phrases should not be used lightly and shouldn't be coming from him. None of it made sense. When we asked for his supervisors contact info, he just said "go ahead, go ahead, this is coming straight from him," then he never gave me the contact," and in the end hung the phone up on my roomate. Worst experience we have ever ever had with movers. Actually ever anywhere. Part 2 in picture read more

B & Z Moving - Part 2 of review - Movers Near Me - Burien, Washington

Junior and Isaiah helped us with our move and they were very good at what they do. The move was successfully completed under the estimated time and we even received a special gift afterwards! Good service and good rates! read more

B&Z did a great job! Communicating with them to get a quote was easy, pricing very reasonable and an option for insurance in case something happened to my stuff, a nice bonus because things can happen even with the best movers. Day of the move they called in the morning, showed up on time and were ready to work. Very friendly, took good care of my possessions and got them well secured in their panel truck. Unloading went faster (once we knew how to manage the elevator in my new building (great systems for safety, but slow for movers until we could hold the doors open. Everything was unloaded in great shape and placed where I needed it to be. All in all very happy with them, would use again! read more

We recently used B & Z moving services to move within Seattle. They took care of the moving smoothly and they were on time and did the job quickly . Their service is worth the money. read more

They squeezed me in on little notice. The movers were nice and personable. My move was 2 1 bed apartments in the same building all going to the same place. It was $1200. They broke my 65 inch led flat screen tv. When pulling up my driveway they ripped the phone and cable lines off the house. For 1200 I expect no damage. This was my first time paying someone to move my boxes. Definitely a mistake. Next time I'll just do it myself. Submitted a claim, still haven't heard back read more

These guys are total pros, would highly recommend. I contacted them on short notice for a weekend cross-town storage unit move and they were very responsive and able to accommodate me easily. They sent two guys out who were fantastic. Very quick and professional, packing up a 10x10 storage unit in under 40 minutes. The only snag was that their truck is quite large. Unbeknownst to me, it wouldn't inside the storage parking area at the destination end, which meant we had to park outside and use dollies to shuttle all my crap over to the loading area where I had hoped we would be able to park. This doubled the amount of time taken, but we still got it done within a reasonable time. Learn from me and ask some questions about these kind of things when you're working on the estimate. Top notch experience, it really made my move painless. read more

Hired B&Z Moving for a complex job of moving stuff from two storage units to one storage unit and an apartment. The job was completely with utmost professionalism and care. Danny and Isaiah very great at not just their work but also with clear communication and planning the move & storage. They were very cooperative with any ad-hoc requests that I had (like moving some stuff out at another storage unit, which wasn't a part of the initial estimate and plan). They even stayed extra 2 hours for a job that was initially estimated to be 3.5 hours. I am extremely satisfied with the service, especially with these two. Also, B&Z Moving, when compared to virtually every other moving company, charged less amount for the job so that's a plus. read more

This is the second time we used this crew. We had JR and Danny. They worked hard for 10 hours. I thought I left a review for the last team that helped us but i cannot locate it. But all 4 guys have been stellar and super helpful! Thanks for kicking butt on a Saturday for us!!! read more

Zach and his team were very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Was able to schedule a move within a day or two which was very helpful. Highly recommend! read more

B&Z moved our family to a new house this weekend, and I couldn't be happier with the service. Anders, Junior, Ivan and Will were all fantastic: they were all super friendly and respectful, and those guys were MOVING the whole time they were here. I really appreciated that they were understanding and patient when we initially pointed them to the wrong rooms with some stuff, and they even set aside the "SUPER FRAGILE TAKE IN THE CAR" box that I was supposed to remember to grab before they arrived. I hope this is the last move I have to make for a long time, but I'll certainly be getting B&Z in again if those plans change. read more

Highly recommended. Zac - the owner is very responsive and the movers are super efficient. read more

It was my first time hiring moving services and was very pleased. Receiving an estimate was seamless and communication was great. Rich and Isaiah were very friendly and worked hard. I would definitely recommend B&Z moving. read more

I can't say enough good about my experience with B & Z Moving! J Joey, Quenton, and Zac were professional, super hard-working, careful with fragile items, and did everything with great 'n kind attitudes throughout! That's a tough job they have and they do it with smiles! They were on-time, communicative, and came in as quoted. Hire these Guys- they're excellent! read more

I've trusted B & Z Moving with three moves now. I picked them for my first move after doing extensive research and getting multiple quotes from highly rated movers, including B & Z, that I found on Yelp. I was so satisfied with how that first move went (wonderful communication, great care with my belongings, and a final cost that came in under the estimate) that I didn't even consider shopping around for my next two moves. Each time my experience was the same--efficient, friendly service that came in under the estimate. I was so pleased with how far above and beyond the crew went with my recent move that I ended up doubling my usual tip, and I still came out ahead of what I'd budgeted for the move. read more

I saw a recommendation for B&Z moving off my local Facebook group. From the time I submitted the request online to the time when the team was done - I was so impressed. I was able to schedule everything and communicate over email. This was awesome. The team called me 1 hour in advance, and then 30 minutes and then when they arrived. The team that helped me was Rich and Danny - and I hands down would use them again (but not to move the corner desk again, promise!). I would gladly recommend them, fantastic and very careful. And very fast and efficient. Thank you for helping me move! read more

We hired B & Z moving to help us move from a one bedroom apartment into our new house. The quote process was pretty seamless, I appreciated that they had a form to reviewed all potential furniture and items you could have to help jog my own memory of what I needed to include. I got an estimate a little on the high end, but I decided to go with B & Z because of the good reviews. The day of the move, Will, Anders, and David arrived promptly at 8AM like they had said they would and they called on their way to give us a heads-up. Our apartment was on the top floor of a three-story walk-up and they did an amazing job moving everything carefully and quickly! They got everything into the van by about 9:30AM. They were extremely gentle with our easily breakable items and valuables. After driving to our new home, they unloaded the van in about an hour! All in all it only took them about two and a half hours of work plus the driving time, and ultimately I was charged a lot less than the estimate. Everything made it safely into our home, nothing was broken and Will, Anders, and David were all really lovely to work with. I would absolutely hire B & Z moving again and I highly recommend them! read more

It's very easy to write a good review for a service where everything went great and as expected. But you really get to know what the company is like when things go south, which is what happened for us. We had some large and heavy items on the inventory that needed to be moved and unfortunately, there was an accident. This resulted in our property being significantly damaged and part of the inventory as well. B&Z took responsibility: they made the repairs to the property (did a very good job) and reimbursed the damage to the inventory as well. Also a huge shout out to the movers! They were super pleasant to interact with, handled the crisis professionally, and finished the job. read more

Had B&Z do a relatively complicated move from Seattle to bellevue and back to Seattle combining furniture from 2 different households in one residence. B&Z was super responsive to emails and phone calls throughout the whole process. And the movers were friendly. Affordable for the pricing that exists in Seattle for this kind of thing but definitely not cheap. But you get what you pay for and all of our belongings were intact! Would work with them again! read more

Thrilled to give this place 5 stars. Moving is stressful enough and hiring movers even more so. I asked several moving companies for quotes, and Zac was the most responsive and followed up. The intake inventory form was a bit of a doozy, but everything else was smooth sailing. We had some hiccups with our house closing and needed to shift our move date. Zac and Nyssa were responsive and helpful, and did their best to accommodate us. On the day of the move, we had 4 young men show up who were friendly, polite, energetic, and fun to be around. Even when I asked for the nearly impossible with taking a pullout couch up and around a narrow stairway through a narrower doorway, they magically figured it out with only very minimal marks left on a stair railing. We were quoted 5 movers for 8 hours given 1.5 hours of travel time between the old and new house... our 4 movers got the job done in 5 hours flat, and saved us a ton of money. My wife and I will definitely look to B & Z again for our next move. read more

I was so happy with my choice for a moving company! Originally I had 3 people scheduled for my move, but only 2 were able to make it- but they did it in the same amount of time! The two guys - Jr was incredibly helpful and professional! I moved from a studio to a studio and it took them about 3 hours- and that was with one of the places not having an elevator and the other only having one elevator for a 17 story building! read more

My move in 3/23 was between the shipper from Hawaii to a storage unit, since I still don't have a place. There truly is a housing crisis! But I digress. They arrived on time after communicating well through the morning. The 3 movers came in a big truck that had both a lift and a ramp on the back - have never seen that before. They used the lift to load and the ramp to unload - very efficient. They were very kind when showing me the damage they saw that happened on the barge over. They arrived to the storage unit right when I did even though it was over 20 miles. They arranged things in the storage unit the way I'd asked so I could walk to the back to access everything. They got it all done under the estimated time and were very friendly and good-humored throughout. Everything was moved with care and I'll use them again when I find a place. Thanks guys! read more

Over our 48+ years of marriage we have had the opportunity to move a lot. (over a dozen) Out of all those moves we have encountered all types of moving companies, good, bad and ... B&Z Moving ranks at the very top of all our experiences. The 3 person team arrived on time started working, almost having fun, and had us in our new location under their estimated time. Zac and team are truly professional. They were neat, clean and very careful of our belongings, We would certainly recommend this company if you are considering a move. read more

Smooth moving day thanks to Danny and Isaiah! They arrived on time, were careful with our bulky furnitures, and re-assembled them safely after arrival. The slope in front of our house prevented the truck from driving all the way in, so they had to carry everything for the final 100 yds to the door, but they were very professional about it. read more

What a great experience from beginning to end. We moved a big house all in one day and couldn't believe how professional and reliable Zac's team was. They moved our stuff up and down three flight of stairs all with a smile. Great, professional team I highly recommend. Moving furniture is a tough job that I couldn't do, these guys made it affordable and gave me peace of mind. Thank you so much! Really can't thank them enough. read more

We used B&Z to unload a 2 bd apartment and decided to try them out again for a full move into a house. They quoted us for 7 hrs and completed everything in a little over 4 hrs. They were very efficient and hard working. Bill and his colleague showed up 10 mins early, they arrived at our destination before we did, and they were very easy to communicate with. We trust these guys! I found them to be reliable, professional and casual. read more

B&Z helped us with a move from a Seattle apartment and storage unit to a house less than 10 miles away. Overall, they did a solid job and I would recommend them. Positive highlights: - When providing an estimate, they give you a huge but detailed questionnaire and inventory sheet to fill out in order to "eliminate as much back-and-forth email as possible". It sounds like a lot of work but is actually quite effective. Zac responded within 24 hours with a very detailed estimate as well as upfront information about their box prices and valuation options. I really appreciated their transparency. - Our moving crew of Zac, Matt and Darryck were friendly, professional and efficient. We ran into a few unexpected issues that were out of our control, such as a broken gate at our storage unit and snow on the street in front of our house, but the crew maintained a positive attitude the entire time. They even helped shovel some snow out of the way! - The final price we paid was almost exactly how much were originally quoted. Why I subtracted one star: - There was a miscommunication about whether B&Z would provide boxes. I requested boxes over email, but I'm guessing this wasn't captured in the signed estimate form because the crew didn't show up with any boxes or packing materials. My husband had to make a quick run to the hardware store to buy some boxes (which is honestly way cheaper than ordering them through a moving company) and the crew made do with using our kitchen towels to protect fragile items. - One of the crew members tried to carry an IKEA 4x2 shelving unit out of our apartment bedroom by himself. Unfortunately, he lost his balance when the drawers slid open and the furniture hit the wall... making a very visible dent (pictured). We didn't make a big deal out of it since it wasn't our property, even though we'll probably have to pay for the damage. The crew was more careful afterward, making sure two people teamed up to carry each larger piece of furniture. Thankfully there was no damage to our new house. read more

B & Z Moving - Dent in the wall from an overambitious solo attempt to carry a large piece of furniture. - Movers Near Me - Burien, Washington

B&Z helped me move to a new apartment. They were about 30 minutes late, but they gave me a heads up while they were on the road. The crew were very friendly and professional. They helped move the heavy and unpacked equipment, and they also helped to set up and place the furniture in my new place. Their initial estimate was a bit high compared to other services. But the crew was able to finish the move much earlier than estimated. I am really happy with their service, and I highly recommend the company. read more

We had a great experience with B&Z. I looked for movers very last minute as I couldn't decide which day to move. Zac was super helpful and professional and was able to accommodate my request. Everything was straightforward. I was asked to fill out an inventory so that Zac could come up with an estimate. I was quoted for 6 hours base on the inventory for a 1-bedroom apartment, but I was told that I would only pay for the actual time the movers take. The day of the move, I received a phone call from the team letting me know they were on the way. They were awesome and knew exactly what to do. They were fast and careful with our furniture. One person was moving furniture to the truck while the other was disassembling our bed. We told them our concern of the TV because its so big and thin and we didn't have a box. They listened and suggested that wrapping the TV with their blankets will do the job and it arrived at our new home without a scratch. Including driving to our new home (30 min drive roughly), the total moving time took only just over 4 hours. We were impressed with their professionalism and their speed. I would definitely use them again in the future and highly recommend them for those who are looking to move in the area! read more

Huge thank you to Rich, Ivan and Jr from B & Z Moving for getting my entire household to my new home yesterday. I am so grateful for these guys. They were prompt, professional, and friendly! They helped me with a bit of a complicated move and a really tricky driveway. I would highly recommend them! read more

Ivan and his partner were the bombolos! I will always request them. Smart, fast, careful and a sunny attitude. Pretty perfect!

The movers were pretty slow and sloppy. It took two movers 5+ hours to move my one bedroom apartment to my new place that's less than 5 miles away. Both of the movers smelled like they hadn't bathed in days. Furthermore, they aren't good at disassembling and reassembling. They had lost hardware for both my bed and couch and couldn't put the couch back together at my new place. Also, my white couch got very dirty since they apparent don't wrap it for the move. I paid for the insurance option that is supposed to cover all lost with a $300 deductible, but when I reached out to them asking about filing a claim for my couch, they just told me to get replacement hardware myself. Overall, really bad experience. Bunch of overpriced amateurs. Would not recommend. read more

Update: Zac reached out to apologize for the experience we had and to refund the cost of the third mover that we paid for since only two were available to move furniture and heavier boxes. I think that's fair and I appreciate him reaching out to let me know my other feedback will be taken into account as well. read more
