Nine Mile Falls Movers

Hardly a week goes by without an insured Pettinger Family Movers truck working a street somewhere in Nine Mile Falls. 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 Nine Mile Falls 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.

✓ No spam. Whatever you put in these boxes has a single purpose: it lets the Pettinger family reach back out about the Spokane move you sketched for us. We do not sell it, we do not rent it, and we do not pass it to anyone outside the company, full stop. Rather get a text than a call? Say so, and the most that ever reaches you is whatever your own carrier charges for a message. The whole policy is laid out in our Privacy Policy any time you want to read it through.

Nine Mile Falls Movers

Fifteen miles northwest on SR-291, Nine Mile Falls strings along the Spokane River and Long Lake: riverside homes, lake cabins on steep waterfront lots, and acreage up the bluffs. We have hauled this stretch of the river since 2010.

“On Long Lake the house is fine. It’s the steep lot down to the water that’s the job. We bring the right truck for the grade.”, Travis Mercer, lead crew chief

The homes we load here

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

Getting the truck to the door

The waterfront is the technical part: steep lots, long stairs down to the dock, and narrow lake lanes.

Obstacle How we handle it
Steep lake-lot grade to the water Long carries down to the dock-side door, worked in pairs and level
Narrow waterfront lane Greg Pettinger scouts it and we shuttle in a smaller truck when a full rig won’t fit
Bluff acreage with outbuildings A shop or barn Brett Lawson cartons before the furniture rolls

What you can count on

One flat rate in writing, our own trucks, our own crews, never a load-board handoff.

Ice on the river grades

Those steep lots down to Long Lake glaze over in a hard freeze, and we’ll move a date before working a loaded dolly down an iced grade to the water. Nothing on your written quote changes when we do.

Pricing for a Nine Mile Falls move

How a Nine Mile Falls job is priced

Local move, charged by the hour

2-mover crewfrom $120/hr

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 Nine Mile Falls 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.

Answers for your Nine Mile Falls move

My lake home is down a steep lot to the water. Can you handle that?
That's the everyday Nine Mile Falls job. The house carries fine. It's the steep grade down to the dock-side door that takes the work, so Travis works the long carries in pairs and level, and we bring a truck cut to the lane.
My waterfront lane is narrow. Will a full truck fit?
Often it won't, and we plan for that. Greg scouts the lane from dispatch, 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.
What if there's ice on the grade down to the lake?
We watch the river forecast, and once a hard freeze glazes the lake-lot grades we'd sooner move the date than work a loaded dolly down an iced descent to the water. Sliding the day is the safe call, and your quoted figure rides through it untouched.
Is it your own crew that shows up at the lake?
Yes, a Washington-licensed mover, WUTC HG-64217, USDOT/MC authority, with our own trucks and W-2 crews. Your Nine Mile Falls move stays with our people start to finish, 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.
