Parkland Movers | Three Generations Moving

Licensed, insured movers serving Parkland and the South Sound — flat-rate, on time, every job.

Parkland centers on Pacific Lutheran University along Pacific Avenue, and the campus sets the rhythm. Older homes line the streets close to PLU, rentals turn over on the academic calendar, and the student crowd keeps things in motion while settled families hold the houses a block or two off the main drag. Three generations of us have driven Pacific Avenue through Parkland, so we know how campus traffic swells on move-in weekends and which rental blocks off Garfield leave room to set the truck.

Student moves come with their own quirks: a third-floor walk-up by campus, a shared house where four roommates split off in four directions, a dorm-to-apartment hop with a futon and a milk-crate kingdom. We size the job to the actual load instead of a guess, shrink-wrap the secondhand couch against the steady Parkland drizzle, and cart off the broken particle-board desk a graduating tenant leaves behind. The settled homes nearby get the same flat written rate and the same care for older floors. Cole’s people on our own trucks, never handed off to a subcontractor.

PLU-Area Rentals and Family Homes

The streets by campus pack out on PLU move-in weekends and parking thins quickly, so we stage the truck where a block leaves the space and carry in from there. A student rental off Garfield or a settled home nearby, the crew runs it for a figure set ahead of the date.

★★★★★

“My mom spent nearly 40 years in her South Tacoma house, and getting her downsized into a small apartment was emotional for all of us. The crew read that and gave her room to breathe, never once hurrying her along, and they handled her china and old photographs with the kind of care you'd give your own grandmother's things. Whatever she decided not to keep, they hauled off for her. They made a genuinely tough week far gentler on the family.”

“Our Eastside townhome move came off smooth from start to end. They turned up when they said they would, stayed organized, and looked after both the old unit and the new one. The TV and our glass-top table got extra attention, and the written flat rate landed right where it was supposed to. Zero gripes, I'd rebook in a heartbeat.”

“Moving into a waterfront house in Ruston, and the crew was excellent through what turned into a downpour. Before a single thing left the house they had the couches and mattresses sealed in shrink-wrap, so nothing arrived damp. They were also mindful on the deck stairs and that awkward turn into the new place. Price held flat the entire job. Color me impressed.”

★★★★

“Browns Point to Boise was our haul, and the part I appreciated most was that the same faces who packed the truck in Tacoma were the ones unloading it in Idaho, no handoff to some carrier I'd never spoken to. The written figure they committed to up front is what I paid, period. I'll dock one star because on delivery day I had to phone in myself to get a timeframe, which felt like it should've come to me, but the crew was decent and not one thing arrived broken. Reasonable for the distance.”

Questions People Ask Us

Will PLU move-in weekend traffic slow down my Parkland move?
We work around it. Move-in weekends pack the streets by campus and parking disappears, so the crew either schedules outside that window or stages the truck where a block stays clear and carries in from there. The access gets settled ahead rather than improvised in the rush.
I'm moving out of a Parkland rental near PLU. Can you keep it fast and affordable?
Yes. Student and rental turnover is routine here. Our local hourly is $140 for two movers, $185 for three, and $240 for four, and a flat written rate up front keeps the figure from wandering. A lighter one-bedroom rental usually falls in the $650 to $1,050 band.
Can you take away the junk a tenant left in my Parkland rental?
We handle it. An old couch, a broken desk, a heap of leftover stuff — it loads the same day, charged by the truckload at roughly $150 to $650 by how much fills the bed. Our own crew clears it, so the turnover stays one visit instead of a separate company on a separate day.
