They have done 2 household moves for and we couldn't be more satisfied. They handled everything carefully and on schedule. Highly recommend them. read more

We used Orca for two moves in one month (joining households) and they were terrific. They were so personable and truly seem to enjoy what they do. It's clearly a family run and operated outfit and they handle things with such care. At one point, I "joked" and said I thanked God for people like them that like to do this stuff... because I'd be crying. Carlos was terrific about communicating and at one point, they tried everything within their power to get my sofa (which was about one inch too long) downstairs- around a tight corner. I've seen previous movers in similar situations just look at it and not even try. We found ourselves backed up against a time wall the following day, needing to get out of our other place - and had a small dump run. They were awesome and just charged a very reasonable removal fee which included their dump fee. We will absolutely use them in the future and recommend them to everyone we know... serious life savers! Thanks Carlos and team!!! read more

Orca Expeditors - Movers Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

100% would recommend Orca!!! I called just a few days before needing movers and they worked me in. The guys showed up on time, managed to get all of my stuff loaded within the two hour minimum (they are FAST), and took extra care to wrap my furniture/tv/etc. As a single dog mom, being able to keep my pup calm throughout all the commotion and just let the guys do the loading was worth every single penny. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart - moving out of state solo has been a stressful process, but working with Orca has EASILY been the easiest part of it all. I wish you were in CA for unloading too! read more

See all

Excellent movers! Extremely professional, kind-hearted, and efficient. We hired them on two separate occasions and both times I was equally impressed. They were able to make things work, moving heavy pieces of furniture, from one floor to another, upon request as well. We hired them to move furniture we'd inherited from one house to ours. Perfect! Will hire again & highly recommended! read more

I hired these guys to do a downtown apartment move and they are amazing! Carlos and Marvin were professional and fast and took good care of my stuff. They were also really nice and funny dudes. I will definitely hire them again next time I need to do a move. read more

We had a wonderful experience with Orca Expeditors. They were on time, polite, hard working and finished quicker then I thought was possible. Wonderful service and we will definitely use them again. read more

Super helpful, responsive and quick. I would definitely use them again. Thank you Carlos!

These guys were great-Courteous, professional and flexible. Our home closing date shifted a few times and they were more than willing to accommodate. The guys were careful and there were no casualties to our belongings or our new home during the move process. I would definitely recommend Carlos and his team for any future moving needs. Thanks, fellas! read more

Carlos and Marvin are the BEST!! They work SO quickly and are so friendly. We only needed them to move the big furniture but they were so awesome and moved extra smaller things for us since they had room in the truck. We had a super heavy item and they moved it without complaining at all - even moving it up super steal and narrows stairs! Absolutely recommend them to anyone moving! read more

Fantastic experience with this moving company! I moved to Gig Harbor, WA from Chicago, IL. I called around various local moving places and this company had the best rates and very friendly service (Carlos). The coordination was seamless and I appreciated the ability to text & email with Carlos. We had a small two hour move just needing movers to show up and unload our POD which had come from Chicago into our new house in Gig Harbor. Our movers Daniel and Jose were AWESOME! They were so quick, professional and so incredibly nice. They did a great job and were patient and listened to us when we needed them to put a box in a specific place, etc. I will definitely go with this moving company again! Thank you! read more

Excellent customer service! Carlos and his team were friendly, experienced and fast. I would highly recommend Orca Expeditors for anyone looking for quality movers and will definitely use them again! read more

Fast, friendly and the most convenient service I've come across. Hired them to help my business do a office move and the crew was fantastic. Would definitely hire again! read more

I've used several movers over the years for both local and interstate moves. I couldn't have asked for a more seamless move with Orca. Carlos was on time, friendly, professional, careful, and efficient. Rates are really reasonable too. read more

This company is great! It was professional, FAST, and respectful. We were moving my grandmas items to a new house for her, and she can be grouchy when people are moving her stuff. Carlos and his associate were so genuine and nice, and treated us like friends. I 100% recommend, they moved A LOT of items in 2 hours - practically a whole mother in law unit. Also got me in on pretty short notice, only 4 days before the actual move. If you want good, efficient work, go with Carlos at Orca Expeditors! read more

These guys are awesome! They are fast and efficient and will take good care of your stuff. I highly recommend Orca Expeditors if you are looking for a moving company with no hidden fees and quick response time. I will be using them again in the future. read more

Let me start by saying.. Don't let having 4 reviews only stop you from hiring this company. I have done my share of moving. Texas to Cali to Washington and many local moves. Every single time I move, something gets damaged. There hasn't been once where I moved and nothing got damaged. I called around and decided to hire Orca Expeditors and talked to the owner(Carlos). He was very professional and communicated very well. I am happy to say for the first time in my life, NOTHING WAS DAMAGED!!!!! I MEAN NOTHING!! Not only nothing was damaged, they moved it quick! I lived in 3200sq.ft. house with close to 150 boxes and many large furniture. They took care of it within 6 hours!! How incredible is that??? Another thing, I called everywhere and they were ALL expensive as hell! Their excuses were that it's a moving season. Not Orca Expeditors. They quoted me super low. I can't be more happier with their service. If you are looking for very nice priced, perfect move then don't wait. You have to call them and book it. Trust me, I did close to 15 moves within 10 years with 4 bedroom house goods. read more

Great hard working men that we on time, flexible and made multiple runs without a complaint! I would hire them again! Book them today! You will definitely get your monies worth!!!! read more

Just used Orca Expeditors to help us load a 8 person hot tub onto my husbands flatbed. These guys are excellent. It was not "a piece of cake" in my opinion, as my husband said it would be. Carlos and his team worked so well together and got it done. I would highly recommended them for any moving job. Thank you so much Orca Expeditors. read more

I hired them to help move the furniture from one house to another in Tacoma about 15 minutes apart, and also to remove a half a garage's worth of junk. I worked out all of the details with Carlos over Yelp and they showed up on time on the day we agreed upon and got to work immediately moving the furniture. They were friendly, worked really fast, and took good care of my stuff. I had a bed and a couch that were too large to move down the stairs so they took them apart and then reassembled them in the new house. They took the furniture in the first trip, and then returned to haul the junk away in a second trip. They did an excellent job with everything, and I highly recommend them. read more

I spoke to Carlos and hired him to do my mother's move a few weeks ago....my mother always hired family members to do her moves, but eventually got tired of relying on them. She asked me to find some movers for her and she was so happy with the experience! Carlos and his team showed up on time, were quick and efficient. She told me to go on Yelp and leave a great review, so here I am! She said she 100% recommends Orca Expeditors. Thank you so much Carlos! My move is next, so I will be in touch. ;) read more

We chose Orca Expeditors because of their Yelp reviews and we are so happy we did. Carlos and Jose emptied our POD for us in University Place in record time and then came over to Mason County on another day (with two things from the POD we needed in Mason County) and loaded up two truck loads of furniture there and unloaded in University Place. They were professional, quick and reasonably priced. Did I mention they are so nice? Loved that they were a small local business. We would highly recommend using Orca Expeditors. read more

They were very fast and hard-working, not taking a break even when we said they should. On the day of, we told them they could come up to an hour before the scheduled time, and they showed up 30 minutes early, getting the job done below the estimated time. They were very courteous and nice, and were priced extremely competitively. So why the low score? We labeled every box with the room it goes in, and put signs up around the house giving directions to every room, to ensure every box would end up in the correct room. However, one of the two movers (the father of the other) either had dementia or didn't speak any English at all. During the move, I noticed him putting one or two boxes in the wrong place. However, after all was said and done, it turned out A THIRD of our boxes ended up in the wrong room. And they weren't just off by one room; they were scattered randomly around the house. Mistakes happen, but come on, that's unacceptable. It couldn't have been due to laziness, because some of the boxes that belonged downstairs ended up upstairs. In fact, I find it hard to believe it was due to not speaking English; even if he CAN'T READ AT ALL, he could still match the letters on the boxes to the letters on the signs and find the correct rooms. I have a back injury that makes it impossible to lift heavy boxes, so this caused us a lot of undue stress and extra work for us. Unfortunately, despite being so nice and hard working, we would not use these guys again. [Edit] In response to the comment from Carlos: It wasn't 3 boxes, it was ONE THIRD (~15) of our boxes. The rest of the comment must be about someone else; we had no landlord, nor a barn, and paid for ourselves (even leaving a tip). read more

They made our move the easiest we've ever had. Super professional, quick, and friendly. Fair price without any added fees, too. I will fully recommend them to my friends and family. read more

This was my first time having to use a moving company. Carlos and his team did an excellent job! They worked quickly and were very friendly. He even worked with me on pricing because I didn't have very much stuff to move! I definitely recommend! Thank you so much! read more

The 2 men were on time..Had enough room for refrigerator on regular pick up. Very friendly and price was $50.00 then lowest quote from others on Yelp! Will use them again!! read more

I had a small job. A heavy mattress in a box to go upstairs and be placed on the bed frame. Carlos saw the task thru opening box and packaging until the mattress began to take shape and placed it on the bed frame. We also had a couch to dispose of they took a minute while the cat found another place to be. Reasonable price and they were able to fit us in between other commitments. Yes I will ask them back for more! Thanks Carlos! read more

I hired Carlos very last minute to move my Mother in law, he got back to me very quickly with a quote that was reasonable and was able to get us booked for the following week. He was on time, careful with her possessions, and made sure that everything was where she wanted it to be. They brought their own equipment and the price is more than fair for the amazing job they did for us. My husband was there with them all day and said that they couldn't have done a better job or been nicer. We will recommend them to anyone we know looking for movers and I'm sure use them ourselves if the need arises! read more

Carlos and his crew did an AMAZING job! They were friendly (and funny) and worked so fast! Not one item was broken and not a scratch or dent in my new house. If you need help moving, or a delivery...give him a call. They made moving day so much easier!! Thanks Carlos! read more

These guys did a small local move for us and were amazing! Prompt, careful and friendly.

Carlos and Denny were exceptional. My appointment was at 3pm and they arrived 10 mins early. The job was completed less than 3 hours and I was moving from a 2 bedroom 1 story house to a 2 bedroom 2 story townhome. Carlos and Denny worked fast, were very friendly, are very professional, great at there job and I would recommend them to anyone looking for movers. read more

This is our second time using Orca this year and again, outstanding service. We had a little more junk to haul out this time since we put in laminate flooring into our entire downstairs (750+ sq ft.). Crew was done in about 35 minutes and the price was right! We will be back again next time we need help! read more

I met Carlos last year when I needed to move twice in a month. Talk about stress trying to move twice in a month! Carlos and his brother in law moved me both times, not only is Carlos incredibly kind, he does a fantastic job, moves quickly, takes very good care of your things, and works with you on the time of day etc... I had to move again this year and I still had his number, I didn't even know he had morphed into a company! He was able to give me an incredibly fair quote, but not only that, he was able to move me fairly last minute as I was in denial about moving. He showed up on time, but before that gave me an ETA. He showed up with his lovely father Carlos Sr. They moved me so quickly! I'm so happy that Carlos has moved into a full time business... he's literally the nicest person and just so professional. I don't do a lot of yelp reviews, but I just feel that if you're looking for a mover and company, give Carlos a call. You won't regret it! Thank you Carlos!!!! read more

Carlos and his crew are great. Quick service, great pricing, and they take very good care of your stuff. HIGHLY recommended.

Once again, Carlos and company have come to my rescue. Found my long looked for buffet. Bought it yesterday and called Carlos to see if he could possibly pick up and deliver in their 24 hour hold on items purchased...yikes! He came through again!! He is fast, personal, on time and does what he says he will do. Oh... and reasonable as well. All great things when you are a service company. He has it going on. Thanks again Carlos!!! read more

Exceedingly polite, fast and safe with our furniture. Terrific experience all around!

Super pleased with Orca. After we had our floors refinished I turned to Yelp to find a couple of strong people to move our furniture back, and ASAP. Carlos Figueroa responded quickly, offered a very reasonable price for our small job, and was very accommodating to our needs. He and Simon were prompt, courteous, very careful, efficient, and hard-working. Clearly they have experience handling/moving furniture carefully. They were also concerned with making sure that each piece of furniture was exactly where I wanted it. Bravo! read more
