Newman Lake Movers

Hardly a week goes by without an insured Pettinger Family Movers truck working a street somewhere in Newman Lake. 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.

Newman Lake Movers

Twenty miles east near the Idaho line, Newman Lake is a tight-knit lake community — waterfront cabins and year-round homes on steep lots down to the water, acreage on the hills above, and narrow lake lanes throughout. We have hauled this lakeshore since Dave started the company in 2010.

“Newman Lake is steep lots and skinny lanes. We scout it first and bring the truck that actually fits the road.” — Greg Pettinger, operations

The homes we load here

The work is waterfront and hillside: lake cabins on steep lots and acreage homes above. Sara Pettinger sizes the inventory ahead.

Getting the truck to the door

The lake is the technical part — steep lots, long stairs to the dock, and narrow lanes that won’t take a full rig.

Obstacle How we handle it
Steep waterfront lot Long carries down to the dock-side door, worked in pairs and level
Narrow lake lane Greg Pettinger scouts it and we shuttle in a smaller truck when a full rig won’t fit
Cabin loft and walkout Steep stairs Brett Lawson works the upright and the heavy pieces down by hand

What you can count on

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

Ice on the lake grades

The steep lots down to Newman Lake glaze over in a hard freeze, and Megan Pettinger can hold the load in climate-controlled storage if a cabin closing slips. We’ll move a date before working a loaded dolly down an iced grade to the water.

  • Steep lake-lot carries worked in pairs and level
  • Narrow lanes shuttled with a truck cut to the road
  • Uprights and heavy pieces eased down cabin loft stairs by Brett
  • Between-closing storage at $130 to $340 a month

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 Newman Lake 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.

Newman Lake moving, your questions

Answers for your Newman Lake move

My cabin is down a steep waterfront lot. Can you handle it?
That's the everyday Newman Lake job. The house carries fine — it's the steep grade down to the dock-side door that takes the work, so the crew works the long carries in pairs and level, and we bring a truck cut to the lane.
The lake lane is narrow. Will a full truck fit?
Often it won't, and we plan for that. Greg scouts the lane from the dispatch desk, and where a full 26-footer can't fit we shuttle your load up or down in a smaller truck so nothing gets stuck and the day stays on schedule.
Can you store a cabin's contents between closings?
Yes. Lake-cabin sales often close before the next place is ready, so Megan arranges climate-controlled storage at $130 to $340 a month and the load isn't sitting in a hot or cold trailer in between, all on the one written total.
Do you run your own trucks, or hand my Green Bluff move to another outfit?
A real Washington-licensed mover — WUTC HG-64217, USDOT/MC authority — with our own trucks and W-2 crews. Your Newman Lake move stays with our people the whole way and is never sold 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.
