Adam's Moving and Delivery Service

Adam's Moving and Delivery Service is a locally founded Seattle moving company. Its about page says the business was started by Adam French while he was attending the University of Washington in the early 2000s, paying his way through school by providing household moving services and delivering furniture through Craigslist, and that it grew from there into a local delivery and moving company. The homepage says the company has provided moving labor, trucks and more in Seattle and western Washington since 2005 and is celebrating 20 years. The credentials published in the site footer are State Tracking HG 62045 and USDOT 1594129, and the site states throughout that the company is fully licensed and insured. Equipment and practices described on the about page include a fleet of nine new moving trucks in 20 foot, 24 foot and 26 foot sizes, thick double-quilted furniture pads used to protect every item, full packing assistance, and trained movers. The company can bring its own trucks and equipment, or simply arrive to load and unload a truck the customer has rented. On reputation, the residential page cites more than 500 five-star Google reviews and over 800 Yelp reviews, and a review widget on the service pages shows a 4.8 rating based on 1,028 Google reviews. The site says reviews can also be read on Angi and Google Places, calls the company award-winning, and displays a Better Business Bureau seal on the homepage. The site does not publish employee numbers or name the specific awards and publications it refers to.

Adam's Moving and Delivery Service is a Seattle moving company whose website lists five main residential services: residential moving, professional moving labor, packing help, furniture moving and delivery, and apartment moving. Residential moving is described as the most common service, with crews handling heavy items such as washers and dryers, pool tables and safes. Labor-only moving services cover loading and unloading a truck, pod, storage unit or single room, moving large items such as furniture and artwork, and efficiently arranging loads in trucks, storage units and pods; a customer who has already rented a truck can hire the crew for the lifting alone. Packing services use the company's own professional packing materials, including specialized wrap and divided boxes for fine china and glassware, custom crating and anti-static padding for large TVs and electronics, and upright wardrobe boxes for clothing. Furniture delivery means the crew collects a purchase directly from the retailer and delivers it to a home, office or business. Apartment moving covers hallways, elevators and loading zones for anything from a studio to a three-bedroom unit. The site also says the crew can help with tasks that are not a move at all, such as shifting furniture between rooms, setting up for an event or reorganising a garage. Items are protected with thick double-quilted furniture pads. Office and commercial moving is offered as a separate service. The website does not publish a price or cost for any individual service; it asks customers to contact the company for a free quote, by phone at (206) 251-1725, by email at adamsmoving1@gmail.com, or through the quote form on the site.

Lists Bend, Bellevue, Bothell, Everett, Issaquah, Kent, Kirkland, and Renton as a location. Names Washington and Seattle as a service area. Areas beyond these are not published.

Adam's Moving Service charges hourly moving rates rather than flat prices, and its rates page describes them as competitive, all-inclusive hourly rates with no added fees. The hourly prices published on that page are for labor-only crews: 2 movers, labor only, $160/hour Monday to Thursday and $175/hour Friday to Sunday; 3 movers, labor only, $200/hour Monday to Thursday and $215/hour Friday to Sunday; 4 movers, labor only, $255/hour Monday to Thursday and $270/hour Friday to Sunday. Those figures are what the website published and should be confirmed with the office before booking, since rates change. Crew and truck combinations are listed on the same page without any published rate: 2 movers with truck, 3 movers with truck (marked as the best value), 4 movers with truck, and 5 movers with 2 trucks. No hourly cost is published for any option that includes a truck, and the site does not publish packing supply fees, travel or fuel fees, or a minimum number of hours. The rates page states that free basic moving insurance is included in the moving rates at no extra charge. To get a price, the company asks for a free quote request; the homepage says a quote is sent by email within the hour after the form is submitted. A quote or estimate can also be requested by calling 206-251-1725 or emailing adamsmoving1@gmail.com. The site says moving rates vary with the size of the home, the distance, how many movers are hired, the amount of packing supplies used and the number of trucks needed, and that each customer gets a customized quote.

Adam's Moving and Delivery Service is located at 903 N. 128th St., Seattle, WA 98133. The phone number is (206) 251-1725 and the email address is adamsmoving1@gmail.com. Published hours are 8am to 4:30pm, Monday through Sunday, so the office is open seven days a week. That address, phone number and those hours appear on the contact page and in the footer of every page. The service area covers the greater Seattle area and western Washington. The locations listed on the site as areas served, each with its own page, are Seattle, Shoreline, Bothell, Kirkland, Bellevue, Sammamish, Issaquah, Everett, Renton, Kent, North Bend and the PNW Islands. To book a move or schedule an appointment, the site asks customers to request a free quote through the Get a Free Quote form, or to contact the office by phone or email; the homepage says the quote comes back by email within the hour. Customer reviews on the site describe the office taking an inventory and giving time and cost estimates before the move, then handling scheduling and follow-up by email and phone. The website does not publish an online booking calendar, does not show which dates or times are open, does not state how far in advance a move should be scheduled, and does not say whether the office is open on public holidays. Anything about availability on a specific date has to be confirmed with the company directly.

Adam's Moving Service provides commercial and office moving in Seattle and the surrounding western Washington area, described on its site as small business moving services. The commercial page says the company can take care of the entire move or any single part of it, whether that is comprehensive full-service moving, packing help, or labor-only assistance. The office furniture and equipment the page says its commercial movers are skilled at handling includes desks, conference tables, servers, AV equipment, computers and electronics, office furniture, business inventory and commercial equipment, and it says the company will also move a business's inventory to a new storefront. For equipment, the page says the company runs nine new trucks in 20ft, 24ft and 26ft sizes, so it can take on a job of any size, and that items are packed using thick, double-quilted padding. It repeats that the company is fully insured and licensed. On price, the page says commercial movers offer free quotes to help a business budget for an upcoming move, and that because the work is billed by the hour there are no extra charges or fees beyond the actual hours used. No commercial rates, prices or minimum charges are published; a quote has to be requested. Labor scheduling is described as flexible: a business can hire help for a few hours one day and more the next. The site does not describe after-hours or weekend office moves, IT disconnect and reconnect work, certificates of insurance for building management, or storage, so contact the company to confirm those.

Adam's Moving Service offers three levels of valuation, its term for moving insurance, and lists all three on its moving rates page. Basic Value Protection is free of charge and pays $0.60 per pound for a damaged item. Replacement Cost Coverage with a deductible costs $1.42 per $100 of declared value: the company repairs the damage to the customer's satisfaction, pays for the lost or damaged articles less a $300 deductible, or replaces the article for any amount over the $300 deductible, and that deductible applies to the entire shipment rather than to each article. Replacement Cost Coverage with no deductible costs $1.88 per $100 of the declared value of the entire shipment and covers repair, reimbursement at replacement cost, or replacement of lost or damaged articles. The site says the basic coverage is given to every customer automatically at no extra cost and that the two upgrades are entirely optional; the price of an upgrade is worked out after the crew surveys the items on the day of the move. For labor-only work the site says the policy covers the company's liability while the team is actively loading or unloading the goods. On payment, the rates page says the company accepts all major debit and credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, AMEX), and that payment is processed on site through Square after the service concludes. Cash and checks are not accepted as payment. Tipping is never required; customers who want to tip the crew are asked to bring cash or a check, because tips cannot be taken on a debit or credit card.
