I am pleased to provide this stellar review. From the very beginning to the end, they were responsive, careful with everything, and professional . Specifically, when I reached out initially, they were unable to answer the phone. However, I received a return call within minutes. They listened carefully to my request and answered my questions and concerns. We then set up an appointment for the move. A handful of days before the move, they reached out and even asked if we required assistance in packing. On the day of the move, they communicated their ETA and were prompt. They assessed the situation and prioritized their efforts in meeting our needs. They were very careful with our belongings within the home we were moving out of and the one we were moving into. As indicated previously, they were professional and courteous. They carefully reassembled the items that they disassembled and insured that everything was to our satisfaction before departing. I would highly recommend their service. They were reasonable, timely, and professionals through and through. read more

I have several issues with Wise Choice Movers, but I'll start with the positives: the crew were nice guys; they were polite, hardworking, and on time. That's why this is 2 stars instead of 1. My real complaints are with the owner, the foreman, and the planning behind the move. **Wasted time on the clock.** The owner (Shane) correctly recommended two trucks for my move, but the foreman (Pete) only let himself load the first truck. That meant three of my four crew members stood around while the second truck sat empty -- at $349/hour for a 4-person, 2-truck crew, that adds up fast. **Move stretched to two days.** Because loading took so long, the foreman said we had too much to finish in one day, so the move to Marysville became a two-day job. Given the pace, that call was probably right but better planning should have prevented it from being necessary in the first place. **The size/complexity assessment failed before the move even started.** Before the move, Shane had me record videos into an AI tool so he could gauge the size and complexity of the job. Based on how the day actually went, that tool was worthless or Shane didn't use it properly. Either way, if your move has any complexity to it, insist on having an experienced human mover come assess it in person. Don't rely on an app. **No ramp for a steep driveway.** I warned them in advance that my new house has a steep driveway. A side-loading truck can park at the base of a driveway like mine and use a ramp to walk items straight up. But the foreman refused to back the truck up the driveway, and the crew showed up with only rear-loading trucks -- which can't be ramped up an incline that way. Some of the crew told me that Wise Choice's one side loading truck had a mechanical breakdown and wasn't available. The result: instead of rolling things up on a ramp, everything had to be carried up the steep driveway by hand. **Understaffed, and they knew it.** When I texted Shane about the pace with only one person to pack both trucks, he admitted he'd planned to send an extra crew member at no charge but had too many other moves that day. Honest, but not exactly reassuring in the moment. **Handling felt more amateur than professional.** I've used corporate movers under Intel/Microsoft contracts before, and this crew felt more "semi-pro" by comparison. A shelving unit was dragged across a console and scratched it. The foreman -- who said he had 25 years of experience -- hadn't padded the railings until I asked. A "protected" cabinet going up to the third floor ended up dinged in several spots because the cardboard padding was flimsy and too thin. I honestly think I could have done a better job wrapping and preparing my furniture myself than these guys did! **Bottom line:** I have nothing personal against the crew. I liked them. Some of what went wrong was bad luck, but most of it came down to poor planning, poor management, and a failure to equip and prepare the crew properly. I can't recommend Wise Choice Moving. It is anything but a wise choice. read more

Great co, trusted them with both of my last moves and will re use them again. Showed up on time and quoted me correctly for packing as well

Very pleased with Wise Choice. The crew is professional and friendly, and they take great care in moving furniture. Our furniture survived without a scratch and they took extra care to make sure we were happy. Highly recommended read more

Quality of work, crew, and communication was great, but the price ended up being 2x what was shared with me for moving a safe. Communicated with Brandon who was nice and professional. I'd advise getting a quote in writing first and shopping around to ensure its accurate. Was quoted $500 ($700 at the highest end) and was shocked and disappointed when the bill was over $1,000. read more

This was our 2nd time using WCM and they didn't disappoint. This particular move was pretty challenging. First - we have a lot of "stuff" - 3 truck loads, second and perhaps more importantly the destination was on a large hill AND 2 flights of stairs. These guys worked for 12 hours, pushing, pulling and moving our items from place to place. They were very communicative, careful with our items (nothing broke), and really, just nice guys. This was a very challenging move but they handled with grace and ease (I'm not sure they would say "ease"). They'll be our first call when and if we need to move again. read more

Would not use them again. Broken table, glass, hurt employees, scratched furniture and expensive.

These movers are not like the rest, they arrived on time, with mountains of blankets and multiple hand trucks and furniture dollies to move anything. They were very careful, efficient, and attentive to not damaging either the house or our belongings. I couldn't even get them to stop for lunch. Should I have to move again....I know who to use without hesitation. read more

Five stars to Tyler and Marcel! Timely, friendly and super helpful. This was a great company to use for our move.

Wise Choice Movers is the best choice we ever made! Shane and his team helped to make our move across the state so much less stressful. They were a really happy group of guys and got along well with each other which made it fun for us. They were on time, and efficient, and also did a lot of thoughtful little extras for us, like when placing furniture, etc. We will definitely be hiring Wise Choice Movers in the future, if needed! Andy H. read more

Rob and Corbin came to our home to move all the heavy furniture--plus our piano--out of the way so that our carpeting (which covers most of the lower floor of our house) could be replaced, and came back 2 days later to put it all back. They did a fantastic job: they arrived on time both days, were very professional and personable, and handled all our furniture with care. We have already recommended Wise Choice--and Rob and Corbin specifically--to friends and neighbors. read more

I called on Wise Choice Movers twice in one week and they were responsive and fit me into their schedule on short notice. Brandon's quotes were accurate, affordable, and well explained, and contacting them is easy. The first move for a W/D pick-up and delivery was complicated but Tyler and Jason handled it carefully and confidently, even backing up a 26' truck 1/4 mile along a one-lane winding driveway. The second move with Corbin and Jason went very smoothly and they were efficient, careful and respectful of moving our items into a new remodeled home. Everyone at Wise Choice are very respectful and helpful. They showed up on-time for both moves. I highly recommend them for any of your moves, large or small read more

Dec. 7-8, 2021 (move date) We hired Wise Choice Movers for our move back in December 2021. Our driver, Danny and helpers Niel and Marco were awesome! They were punctual, hardworking and incredibly detailed, thorough and meticulous with each of our items. We appreciated their organization of our move, which spanned two full days, and their positive attitude. This was a huge move from a two story 2,800 sq. ft. home to a three story 6,000+ sq. ft. home. They all went above and beyond to support us. I highly recommend Wise Choice Movers for all of your moving needs! read more

We hired Wise Choice to empty our first floor furnishings to a local storage unit while our floors were installed. Easy to arrange. Shane gave an estimate over the phone and scheduled a time. Danny and Jason arrived on time and were friendly, professional and very efficient. We look forward to seeing them again on the move back! read more

Wise Choice Movers - Danny and Jason - Movers Near Me - Woodinville, Washington

I have moved 12 times in 9 states. I have worked with a lot of movers who called themselves experienced movers. Brandon and his crews could teach what it is to be a professional. From the first time I spoke to Brandon I sensed they were experienced professionals. Tyler, Mateo, and Jason made my move feel easy. They arrived on time, they did the job, the followed instructions (and waited patiently while I made some decisions), and offered help when I needed it. They were recommended to me....and I would highly recommend Wise Choice Movers to anyone who needs to move. read more

We needed to move two large vanities upstairs within two days and assumed it would be difficult to find a reputable company to service the request with such a tight deadline. After calls to numerous moving companies that quoted unreasonable rates, we finally got ahold of Shane with Wise Choice Movers. Not only did they beat our deadline, they did so the same day and completed the job in only thirty minutes at an affordable rate. Their team (Danny, Tyler & Jason) was careful, efficient, professional, and worth every penny. Highly recommended. Thank you for a job well done! read more

We have used wise choice for several moves, to storage, from storage, home move from bothell to olympia, and everything in between. Most recently, Marceo, Isaac and Tyler packed our home into a 10x20 unit from bothell to olympia! And today Mateo, and Drew saved us packing our 10x10 into our 15' truck! These guys know how to pack! I would recommend any of these guys with Wise Choice. They're fast, reliable, polite and professional, and, oh by the way, They're strong! They are amazing! Nothing to worry about if you make the Wise choice! read more

This review is long overdue...sorry! We moved in May of 2022 and opted to use Wise Choice Movers, and we're sure glad we did. Moving is one of the most complicated life things...but getting all of our stuff from one house to the next was easy once we left it to Wise Choice. We had been in our home for 14 years and had a lot of stuff. A lot. Wise Choice made it easy by giving us an idea on the cost ahead of time, and what made it even better was that they didn't dork around with things like extra fees for stairs, or TV's or whatever. On move day, they showed up on time and got right to work. They didn't balk at any of the items that were ridiculously large or heavy. The answer was always "no problem"....and it wasn't. Anything they took apart, they put back together perfectly at the new place and everything was well protected. They knew what they were doing for sure and it inspired confidence in a stressful time. Each of the movers was very friendly as well, which made the day easier. Even with 2 big trucks, and filling a 6x12 trailer that we towed...they still had to come back the next day to finish up. This was unexpected, but they handled it well. I hate moving. During our unpacking, the only damage we found was to a few fragile items that we packed ourselves...and should have packed better. It wasn't their fault...they did an amazing job. I'd rather eat glass than move. But I'll tell ya...if I have to do it again, I'll be calling Wise Choice. read more

This is favorite moving company. Professional, fast, organized and courteous. The first time I used them, they came to me rescue when another moving company bailed. This company helped me with only 48 hour notice. In my most recent move I didn't even think about calling anyone else. They take care not to damage your furniture and household items. They take time to set furniture back up and place it where you want it. I can't tell you how helpful that is. Hard work with a wonderful attitude. Thank you guys! read more

Great job by Wise Choice Movers last weekend! The three guys that wrapped our things and were so careful with out tight hall and stairs were Mark, Danny and Niel. Thanks so much, glad to be a repeat customer! read more

Had to make an emergency move in our apartment complex and hired Wise choice movers. They were amazing!! During this difficult time Danny and Tyler were our movers and went above and beyond to make sure everything was done quickly, professionally with great attitudes. These two guys worked so well as a team! We have to move again in a month and will definitely be asking for them again. Having to move is stressful enough but knowing you can count on movers like these two I will recommend them to all of my real estate agents and friends read more

We needed some heavy office furniture moved up a flight of stairs and the old furniture moved down a flight of stairs. Brandon was super fast to provide a clear quote, Danny & Isaac made fast work of the project and we'll definitely use Wise Choice movers again read more

We have used Wise Choice Movers 3 times they are just that darn good! So kind, caring, fun and quick! These guys are so strong! Very reliable. We have had Neil and Mark for each move. Their amazing! Highly recommend! If you need someone you can trust with your precious items these are your guys! read more

You will not be disappointed if you hire these guys! They were on time, communicative, quick, and respectful. Each of them introduced themselves and we're sure to check in with questions. All of our things arrived without damage. We're so pleased! We'll definitely use them again! read more

I picked this moving company based on the reviews I saw, and their availability. I spoke with Steve and he was very polite about moving us within the next few days (I called on Thursday and they were able to move us on Monday). I moved from a 3/2 to a 4/2/2. Steve was very nice and told me I would receive a courtesy call the day before the move to confirm the moving time. I told him it wasn't necessary. I didn't get a call the day before. The two guys called 22 minutes before 9 and showed up on time. They were nice and I felt like they took care with our items. I chose to put less stars because I've had multiple movers before, not in this state, and I felt like there was more sense of urgency. If I'm paying by the hour, I'd like to know they're working, not conversing and standing in the van while one is working. I also felt like the accountability for time was unclear. I have no idea at what point they stopped the clock and started it from their lunch and leaving one location to the other location. They didn't assemble as a team, so some things took longer because they did require an extra set of hands. If it wasn't for the 10% discount because I found them on yelp, I would have been less happier. I don't think moving less than 5 miles down the road with as little stuff as we had should have been over 6 hours. Especially when I moved most of the non furniture items myself out of the apartment and into the house. read more

Let me start by saying that this is not another 5-Star review. My moving day started with a nightmarish call from Steve, telling me that their driver didn't show up and would need to reschedule. This is the worst thing you want to hear with a 6 month old by your side and all things packed and ready to move. This is by no means a big time moving company but we took the risk because we prefer local businesses and read the reviews on yelp. So now what? Steve, even though just one of the crew members was extremely polite and apologetic and helped coordinate a replacement in less than 20 minutes. Timely and good initiative, since I was blowing steam by now. So why the 5 stars? These stars are JUST for Anthony and Vince. They were the most energetic, well - mannered, professional young men I've had the experience working with. The company made the right calling hiring these stars to their team. Now, The move was a breeze. These guys are Fast AND Careful at the same time! We were moving from a 2 bedroom, 2nd floor apartment to a brand new, 3 floor home with prestine hardwood all over. I was obviously very worried about any dings and scratches. Right off the bat they impressed us with their work ethic. They used the stairs instead of the elevator since it was the closest to the apartment and the most efficient/fast way, even though it would mean much harder work from them. They made light work of 30-40 pound boxes and the furniture was properly shrink wrapped. I observed their stacking skills in the truck and everything was perfectly placed and held secure with bungee cords. At the destination, they used furniture blankets. They were fast moving each box to its room but we're extremely careful, putting each box down like it was full of glass to avoid any dings or scratches to our shiny floor. They even helped me assemble my bed, even though I had disassembled it myself. So there you go, my 5 stars to these awesome guys. read more

Wise Choice Movers - Nicely packed truck. - Movers Near Me - Woodinville, Washington

We have used Wise Choice Movers 3 times and have been very pleased each time. Shane is very helpful and friendly and each mover we have had were amazing! They work SO fast and they are very friendly. This last time we had a couple of issues with the movers packing the truck for our move across country and Shane was so helpful and responsive and fixed the issues we had. I wish they were in our new state so we could use them for all moves. Highly recommend! read more

I had a very terrible experience with the owner/manager of this company. He was unapologetic after his crew showed up 3 hours late for our appointment. He said there was nothing he could do and it wasn't his fault. When I mentioned I'd be leaving that in his review, he threatened to tell his employees not to show up. (The employees were very friendly and courteous but I can't increase my score because of how poorly the owner treated me. ) read more

[pictures uploaded] Hired them to move a piano on 5/16/2018. They showed up 30 minutes past the three hour window we agreed on. They moved a stand up piano quickly, but damaged the lower keyboard of the piano with a tie down strap, left a large scratch on the wood floor, and broke off a trimming of my front door. I called the owner Brandon Wise and explained the situation, to which he replied that he didn't believe me since the crew was an experienced crew. Still, Brandon offered to come over to repair the trimming himself. I didn't ask for compensation since the piano is old and not worth much. The trimming can be nailed back in, and I can use wood filler to fix the floor scratch. But all these things should not have happened on the first place and just created more work for me. All could have been avoided with a little more care. I will say, the crew was really polite and worked quickly. The piano was a stand up grand. Pretty big, but three movers packed it up quickly and got it to the new house 5 miles away in about 40 minutes. Paid for 2 hours of service. read more

See all

TL;DR UP Top - If you're scrolling through reviews to see if you want to hire these guys, just stop and do it! Now on to the review: I contacted Shane about a month before my recent move. I was calling around to get rates of a few different companies and found that for the most part they are all pretty competitive in terms of pricing. Shane had availability on my move day, so we booked it. I followed up the day before to make sure we were still scheduled, and everything was on track. Move day came and the crew of Steve, Niel and Steve showed up right on time with a fairly large truck. After a quick meet and greet we walked the house and went through each room identifying items to be moved. They got started right away; this team was very efficient. Steve had a game plan in mind, and Niel and Steve were busy executing it. They shrunk wrapped key pieces of furniture and handled each item with care. It wasn't long before the first house was nearly empty and we were on the way to the new place. The crew took a quick lunch break and then met us up at the new house. The unloaded process obviously went a bit faster, but they took the extra time to consult each box coming in as to which room it was going and make sure that the bigger items were in the correct rooms so we didn't have to move them around ourselves. Overall I was pretty impressed and pleased with the scheduling and the effort the guys put in. I've heard some horror stories with movers, but thankfully haven't experienced any yet. If you're looking for movers, give these guys a call, they did great. Thanks again! read more

Just moved from a storage unit in North Bend to a townhome in Seattle. Danny and Vincent did a great job - great at communicating; friendly; on time ... they were early in fact! My mom was there and texted me after "they were GREAT." High praise indeed. My realtor had referred them and he's been in the business 20 years so he knows all the good local industry people. I haven't had a bad referral from him yet. I'd use Wise Choice Movers again, though I don't plan on moving for years! read more

These guys were awesome! When we sold our house, we had to move all of our stuff into a storage unit and then back out and into a new house several weeks later. I was anxious about the whole process but Steve and his crew made everything easy! They were punctual, communicative and took great care in moving all of our items. Shane was also super accommodating with scheduling when we had some unexpected changes with the date of our home sale. We've already recommended Wise Choice movers to friends and will continue to do so! I would not hesitate to hire them again! read more

Wise Choice Movers was hired to move upstairs furniture because new carpet was being installed. Tyler, Marcel, and Danny arrived on time, introduced themselves, and went to work. They were friendly, professional, and careful. We had moved the big HEAVY television downstairs in an effort to be helpful. We almost dropped it on the stairs! Tyler and Marcel moved it back upstairs with ease. That task alone gives them a five star rating! We would highly recommend Wise Choice Movers, especially Tyler, Marcel, and Danny for any moving job you might have. Best regards, The Pauls read more

We finally made it home after a year of all of our belongings in storage following a water damage event, and the great movers/people at Wise Choice helped at both ends of this adventure. We live on a very narrow street and had two truckloads of home items to unload quickly to avoid a traffic jam, ... the Wise Choice Crew handled it quickly, carefully, and with good cheer!! They asked for direction of placement at the house and offered to help setup difficult items!! As when items were moved into storage, the move home was made easier by this excellent and hard working team. Thank you especially to Tyler, Jason, Isac, Danny, Jason, Marco, and Malco!! it was "fun" (is that possible) and well done and much appreciated!!!!! (and no angry neighbors for traffic delays!! as a bonus outcome!!) Nancy P read more

We hired Wise Choice to unload a 26-foot rental truck that we had driven 900 miles after it was packed by a local moving company at our previous home. The two-man crew from Wise Choice was excellent. They arrived on time and unloaded the truck in three hours, putting all the boxes and furniture in the locations we asked them to without damaging any of our stuff or the new house. They handled a tricky flight of stairs with no problem, including a heavy sleeper sofa and heavy triple wide cherry dresser. They even laid out a runner to protect our wood floors. Bottom line, they are true pros. I highly recommend them. read more

This company is a total rip off....Spoke with a guy on the phone and had initial agreement..after everything was moved, nothing was like an initial agreement and I've been charged extra for no idea what....Also, checked on google map and the drive time for truck to go back to the shop was under 1h and yet, guys charged me for 1,5h driving back.... Don't use this company...TOTAL REAOFF!!! Never will use this company again read more

Wow, these guys are good! Being in my 60s I have used maaany local movers. We had Tyler, Danny, Marcel and Jason and they were on time, quick, efficient, courteous. We'd been ripped off by another mover from Lynnwood so we were a little gun shy but I'll stick with these guys. read more

Mark, Marco and Jason at Wise Choice did a great job in moving our stuff. Super efficient and not a thing broken. They got the job done much quicker than expected. read more

We have used the company twice now and both times the crews were friendly, experienced, and efficient. We were doing new carpet throughout the house and needed furniture moved up and down the stairs. They were very helpful formulating a plan on what to put where...and plotting out the reverse move on the second appointment. I would reccomend them and will be using them again. read more
