Testimonials

"Your gals were astounding! Jennie and Alison are two of the most focused hardworking, and  incredibly personable people I’ve met.  I could not have managed this move without them.  Your service is a gift to a stressed out moving person .  I am more than happy to shout about it from the rooftops and also write a stellar review.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!"  J. Duncan

"What a lot of accomplishments Lisa and I made today!  She is a phenomenon.  We did ALL the grubby undersink cabinets (3 bathrooms and kitchen) and ALL the laundry cabinets;  sorted out the kitchen linens and got them ready to go;  got a huge carload of donations delivered and ALL the HAZMAT!!!  In our bonus hour, we bundled up garden supplies for the Habitat truck and got started on more books for the SPL.  Lisa also gave me advice on the chest-of-drawers questions so we will be much better prepared come moving day.
A really great day.  Thank you so much for what you do!"  H. Roberts

"Thanks Katie! And please pass along my thanks to your team. They were extremely kind and hard working."  B. Griffith

"Thank you Katie.  You have a wonderful team and they did a great job."  E. Campbell

 "It was great to have Allison's help today as usual. My desk is feeling dreamy, and B. LOVES the necklace hooks!"  A. Pistner

"Your ladies were wonderful! Jennie hadn't ever been in our house, and she did  beautiful work, placing things in the den and the laundry room and more; I'd had a question about the height of the cookbooks but have found I like her idea better! Cindy was in charge of the bedrooms and baths--everything is lovely. And Lisa did so much unwrapping and kitchen and pantry work--and that, after a whole morning of packing for us in Ballard--Wow! Don't know how they did all they did!  We couldn't have asked for a better team!

In fact, I'm sure we couldn't have done a move on our own. After 42 years in the same house, we collected so much stuff--but what we have here, though we still hung onto more than we need, is very doable and looks charming! Please thank the girls for me!" J. Barnard

"Thank you, Katie!  I truly appreciate everything your team and you did!  The day after the move was pleasant and relaxing!" T. Knight

" Thank you so much for the help.. your hard working staff are the bees knees… I don’t know what I would have done without them… they were so awesome, I’m sure you know this, but I’m indebted to their sharp organization skills and wonderful attitudes- I heart you all!" S. Campbell

" I just wanted to say thank you for the excellent job you did with the packing. We were very, very impressed with your work! I will definitely recommend you if I hear of anyone moving to or from the area."  S. Anderson

"What an amazing feeling to wake up this morning and find towels hanging from the towel bar, coffee cups in the cabinet and clothes in the chest of drawers.  And Joshua’s room is perfect! What a joy to have it set up and ready to go!! Thank you!
Loved working with you and your team - all the best to you!"  E. Broas

"Thank you all for your help.  We think having you involved in this move is the best thing we have done!  Moves Made Simple is worth every penny."  B. Davidson

 Hey Katie! C &T were thrilled! You’re easy to give a good recommendation for!  M. Acquavella

“If moving can be at all enjoyable, our decision to get help from Katie at Moves Made Simple was the right one. We moved from a floating home to a senior living situation across town, having lived in our floating home 25 years. With all that accumulation there was a lot to do, but Katie and Cindy walked us through it over the weeks with encouraging support, humor, and many, many trips for our designated donations. Later in the process the packing began, and Jenny joined Cindy, working alongside and helping with suggestions for perhaps further downsizing as needed. Their ideas and opinions were invaluable! (There was laughter). Katie coordinated with movers and our new living destination, and all went as planned moving day, with all on deck for the process. Later on the unpacking went quickly, things went to spots we wanted, and all the boxes and wrappings were taken away. We so highly valued Moves Made Simple and its expertise, personnel & caring! Thank you! A++++.”  J. Schairer

Alison was amazing. Your team is kind, considerate, and such miracle workers! We’re so grateful to know you.  E. Crowely

George and I are over the moon with you and your amazing team!  Weʻll definitely keep you on speed dial and share your services with our friends. Again, many thanks!  E. Crowley

“Passing along a note of thanks you and your whole team. Although I haven't gotten to see the results of your fabulous work myself, when Zane got home from work, he called me as he walked around the house, looking at our entirely packed house, saying things like "I can't wipe the smile off my face," and "we'll never pack ourselves again." Having had your team help us has lifted an incredible weight off of us, and has made our move so doable. THANK YOU!!”  K. Murffitt    

“The ladies who unpacked (my dads) belongings did a beautiful job of arranging things in his room. It warmed my heart when I walked in and the pictures were all up. It's lovely.” L. Oliver  

I just wanted to say thank you for the excellent job you did with the packing. We were very, very impressed with your work! I will definitely recommend you if I hear of anyone moving to or from the area.  S. Anderson

  “Sending this email gives me an opportunity to once again say thank you.  You and your crew are simply amazing. My kitchen remains organized the way you set it up as does the bathroom and bedroom space.  Thanks so much. ” J. Loeken 

  “Just can't say enough about your business of helping others, the way you plan for a great day, the ladies who take on the hard !! work of a full day within someone's life that is so important to that individual and to your super crew.  Thank you for Cindy, she is a dear and did so much to contribute to the day.  Thank you for Jenny.  Jenny worked so very hard all day long - trying to guide my thinking when i grew tired, getting help for me, suggesting creative and so crucial to my comfort ideas that were so successfullllll.  You are a remarkable person in charge and your 2 ladies who were here today were admirable.  Truly could not have had more help more care, more generosity more stick to your job attitude.  I am so happy here and now getting ready for a good sleep..” M. Smith  

Just about every day I come across one reason or another to be grateful that I had your help with my move. Lisa and Cindy have such a sense of style and “feng shui” that most everything they unpacked is still right where they set it down on moving day and right where I would have expected to find it.  H. Roberts

  “I can’t tell you how much I appreciated your services. It makes a big difference to have a professional manage the once every 35 year move.The movers were terrific over at Jennifer’s.  They very carefully moved the large pieces in a very tight upstairs stairway and hall; placing the furniture carefully in her office.  They helped make sure the furniture was setup with felt pads installed to protect her new oak floors.  They went the extra mile and I know your relationship with the moving company makes a difference.” J.

  "Katie and her team, Penny & Cindy, made my move to Seattle very do-able and it was the most un-stressful move I've ever completed on my own.  Katie sized up my then-current apartment in Tacoma  and went straight to work paring down possessions and mentioning other steps that needed to happen in order to accomplish downsizing and 're-planting' my residence.  Kudos to Katie for organizing the necessary steps, for space planning the new space with suggestions that made sense & worked, and finishing the days with depositing the trash, boxes, and wrapping paper!   They hung my pictures, set up the bathroom, etc., so that the new place felt like home within 4 days!"   L. Woods

  “We will be forever grateful to Katie (aka our angel) for managing our "rightsize move" from a large family home to a condo! She was efficiently involved with each aspect of the transition from organization, packing, and even helping to stage our home to coordinating the actual move!   Most importantly, Katie's approach to her work is extremely caring and compassionate. She transforms what could potentially be a very stressful life transition to a fun, liberating experience” F. McHugh  

“After 50 years as an insurance agent, broker and being involved in many groups but now retired, I had files and papers all over my house.  Moves Made Simple 's  services  straightened them out and carefully indexed the files and now I just sit and read.”  T. Allen  

“Katie’s help was invaluable to us.  We could not have made our move without her.  She spent extra time helping us plan where to place our furniture in our new home.  She remained flexible, good humored and attentive to our concerns.  She arranged everything and even sold some items we could not take with use - even hung our pictures!
You can depend on Katie.”  E. Perrin

J. Blackwell  

"Katie, Many thanks.  Things went very well!  Cindy was WONDERFUL.  She put everything away far better than I could do and had some great ideas about placing my furniture--just sorry she had to work so long and stay so late.  Lisa was great too.  They both worked so fast and efficiently.  All of you made the move EVER SO MUCH EASIER THAN I COULD EVER IMAGINE!"

"Thank you very much for all your hard work and dedication to this latest project of ours! I'm astounded that you were able to mobilize so quickly, manage the many challenges at hand with such ease, and choreograph all the moving pieces, enabling us to have our condo ready for occupancy. It's such a wonderful feeling to have you in charge, especially when by necessity, I'm so far away from the action!" O. McHugh

  “Katie is an excellent helper who worked all day with me on Friday and accomplished miracles.  I cannot recommend her more highly, for the following reasons:  She is the daughter of a personal friend, and is unquestionably honest.  She is very quick, efficient, careful, patient, understanding, and forthright.”  H. Belvin  

"You are truly a life saver." A. Gordon
