My move went like a dream. Morgan and his crew did an exceptional job in getting me loaded up and then moved 30 miles south to my new house. They were efficient and very careful in loading up my stuff. Though I had to get my own UHaul -- they had all the equipment/blankets/dollies needed and they were so pleasant. I would use them again in a minute. read more

Excellent service. I really appreciate the help the Bryce & Vlad provided. I had ordered a treadmill that I couldn't move up the stairs alone. I found them on yelp, they were extremely quick to respond and I had an appt for the same day. There was no way I could have moved this solo & they had it upstairs in less than 5 minutes. Definitely not their first rodeo. Very professional, friendly, and respectful guys. 10/10 would recommend. To Bryce & Vlad, thank you, you are the very best like no one ever was, I sincerely appreciate your help! read more

Man, this is a special company. I called around looking for someone to help move a very, very heavy item. I spoke with Bryce this morning and by 2PM he and a teammate had picked it up in Ferndale and driven it to Blaine. I am 100% floored with the quality of service and professionalism. If the rest of their employees are like Bryce and his teammate today, this is a unique gem of a company. Thanks so much for your help today guys! read more

Fantastic experience moving my 3 bedroom home. They were punctual, took special care of my items, and they're really nice guys as well! Stress free; the easiest move I've ever had. Highly recommend. read more

Bryce was responsive in his messages and punctual. We had a challenging piece of furniture to move, and he was methodical in trying to preserve our walls and the piece of furniture. I appreciated that he didn't force it nor did he quit. read more

Update: (1) "Isaac Petrie, owner" responded from "Bryce B." 's Yelp account accusing me of yelling. I had to look up who Isaac Petrie is, since Bryce had presented himself as the owner in all our past conversations and Bryce's account is also listed as "Business Owner" in the Yelp profile. The first search result for Isaac Petrie shows that this company was "voluntary dissolved" on 28th May 2022, well before we made our booking: https://opencorporates.com/companies/us_wa/604763780 Advice to any reader of reviews here - check on the current status and the owner history since they seem to keep closing down companies and reappearing with new moving company names (Spokane Moves, Specialized Moving, Washington Moves) - https://opencorporates.com/officers?q=ISAAC+PETRIE Indeed the website https://whatcomspecializedmoving.com/ has Bryce's old email from his previous company "Spokane Moves Online" and he never responded to our emails sent to that address. (2) The owner also didn't hesitate to accuse us of "yelling" and "calling from multiple numbers". I'll update the text message screenshots here shortly for any reader to decide for themselves (or any potential customer can DM me), there was zero communication from Bryce after he cancelled and we texted him 4 times from a single number. Wonder how easy it is to "keep your cool under pressure" if your strategy is to just ghost your customer after cancelling at the 11th hour. (3) "Isaac" from "Bryce" 's account is refuting saying he is "proud of his employees". Perhaps he can explain why he doesn't have visibility into "his employees'" calendar to schedule a job just four days out and why he said over phone call that he was "contracting" labor on a per-job basis. (4) Any previous reviews that they seemingly have 5 stars for here are smaller (upto 3BD), local moves within Whatcom county. We had communicated with Bryce previously that this would be a large, urgent moving job crossing county lines, and we were willing to take a bet on them just to help a local company, despite them not having the right level of experience. Make your own judgement about the legitimacy of the 5-star reviews here - at the time of this writing Yelp is flagging at least 9 of these "perfect 5-stars from a new account that never reviewed anything else" reviews as not legitimate and not including them in the score -https://imgur.com/a/WxJmTmk Original review: Cancelled the job 90 minutes before moving citing hazardous smoke levels in the Bellingham area. That's fine, we don't want anyone getting their health harmed in the process of our move, but we do think it is reasonable to expect clear communication afterwards to make alternate arrangements in the event of a weather calamity or natural disaster. Instead Bryce stopped responding to texts or emails for 5 hours straight. When I called him, he pretended to not be Bryce, until I reminded him that he was talking at the same number he was texting from earlier this morning, so he couldn't pretend to be someone else now. He said he "contracts" people and his contractors won't give him their availability in the coming week so I should better find an alternate mover. Ok, so maybe you shouldn't pretend to be a real business with employees and make it clear when you agree to a large 4BD/4BA move with a $2800+ USD estimate that it is going to be completed by "you and contracted labor" not a real moving company with accountable employees. Thanks to this company ghosting you, we are left with no contingency plans for a move made necessary by medical emergencies and have to scramble before a hospital appointment due in 3 days. Bryce didn't have the courtesy or the honesty to keep us posted about what was truly going on, just cancelled over text at 8.30 for a 10 am job. read more

Morgan and Jonah moved my heavy furniture and fragile items with the same gentle care and quickly placed them into a well balanced unit using up all available storage. They were professional, experienced and creative but also pleasant, compassionate and reassuring. Moving is a stressful event but with Whatcom Specialized Moving Services the name is well earned. It was specialized in the job they did but more of a service in how they did it. Morgan had told me they would take care of everything and treat my belongings as if he was moving his own. Very thankful. read more
