Millwood Movers

Hardly a week goes by without an insured Pettinger Family Movers truck working a street somewhere in Millwood. Each of those moves is quoted as one written flat rate before we start, and that number is what you pay when the truck is empty.

A Millwood quote in about a minute

Share a few quick details and what comes back is a single clear flat rate — the resident-permit parking and the Kendall Yards or downtown COI were folded into that number well before it reached your inbox.

Or call (888) 278-9005

Hit send and your note lands on a desk at our Spokane office; the written rate heads back your way and should reach you before the day wraps up. There is no charge for the figure and no string attached to asking — sit with the number as long as you like, since saying yes or no is entirely up to you. One of our own estimators, and no one else, builds your quote, and the details you share never travel past that desk.

Millwood Movers

Six miles northeast in the Valley, Millwood is a tiny incorporated city of its own — a compact grid of older mill-era bungalows and craftsman homes near the Spokane River, with tight lots and original trim that reward a careful crew. We have worked these streets since 2010.

“Millwood is small lots and old trim. You go slow, pad the corners, and carry it level — that’s the whole trick.” — Travis Mercer, lead crew chief

The homes we load here

The stock is older and compact — bungalows and craftsman homes with narrow staircases and original woodwork. Sara Pettinger reads the inventory ahead.

Getting the truck to the door

The lots are small and the streets are tight, so the truck and the trim both get planned for.

Obstacle How we handle it
Tight older curb space Greg Pettinger brings a truck cut to the street and sets the closest legal spot
Narrow bungalow staircase Oversized pieces padded and worked through level, not cranked around the bend
Original woodwork and trim Corner posts and banisters wrapped before the first piece moves

What you can count on

One flat rate in writing, our own trucks, our own crews — never a broker or load board.

  • Old bungalow trim and banisters padded and protected
  • Oversized pieces carried level through narrow stairs
  • Floors protected before the first box on hardwood lower levels
  • License WUTC HG-64217, USDOT/MC authority on file

Local move, charged by the hour

That Inland Northwest rate rolls in the truck and every bit of gear loaded aboard it — quilted pads, dollies, floor runners, the lot. The clock opens on a three-hour block. For a typical Millwood job — a condo, a split-level, or a daylight-basement house with a stair run — the crew usually has the load wrapped up somewhere between the third and fifth hour.

Millwood moving, your questions

Answers for your Millwood move

How do you protect an old bungalow's trim?
Carefully. Millwood's mill-era homes bring tight staircases and original woodwork, so Travis's crew pads the trim, wraps the corner posts and banisters, and carries oversized pieces through level rather than cranking them around a tight bend.
The streets are narrow. Where will the truck park?
Greg checks the block from the dispatch desk and brings a truck cut to the street, then sets the closest legal spot to the door. On the tightest curbs we'll shuttle in a smaller vehicle so the crew isn't carrying half a block.
What does a Millwood move cost?
It runs $120 an hour for two movers, $165 for three (two-hour minimum), or a flat rate in writing — figure $900 to $1,400 for a two-bedroom bungalow. Sara sets the number after the walkthrough and that's what you pay, with nothing added once the truck is loaded.
Do you run your own trucks and crews?
A licensed Washington mover — WUTC HG-64217, USDOT/MC authority — with trucks we own and crews we employ. Your Millwood move stays with our people, never handed to a broker or a load board.

These roads are home turf

Long gravel driveways, a shuttle out to acreage, resident-permit parking, the COI a Kendall Yards building wants on file — that is just routine for our crew. Hand over the particulars, and the truck, the blankets, and our W-2 movers all show up together on the one quoted price, settled long before anybody picks up the first box.
