We’ve been moving families and businesses in Edmonds since 2006. Our crews are based in the metro area and know the split terrain that defines this city: the low-lying waterfront Bowl with its mid-century bungalows and narrow streets, and the upper residential plateau with its split-levels and newer construction. That local knowledge saves hours on move day. We time our routes around ferry traffic on SR-104, carry proper traction gear for rain-slicked hillside driveways, and stock shuttle trucks for the Bowl’s tight access. Every full-service move includes free wardrobe boxes, and moves over $2,500 qualify for $250 off.
Why Milestone Moving Co. Is Edmonds’s Preferred Moving & Storage Company
Edmonds residents have left us strong reviews over the years for showing up in the window we promised and delivering without the quote changing. We’re not the cheapest hourly rate in Snohomish County, and we don’t try to be. We compete on one binding number, one vetted crew, and one written guarantee.
Our response time to Edmonds is typically same-day or next-day for estimates, with moves scheduled within 24-48 hours depending on season. We know the difference between a 98020 waterfront property with a detached garage and a 98026 split-level on the plateau, and we survey every job in person or by video before we quote so there are no surprises about access, stairs, or carry distance.
Every mover on your job is background-checked, in uniform, and on our payroll. Not day labor. Not a text-message crew. One team, start to finish. And a live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, before your move, during your move, and if you need us 90 days after delivery.
Our Moving & Storage Services in Edmonds
Short-Term Storage in Edmonds
Short-term storage in Edmonds runs $90-$200 per month and is built for gaps between closing dates, renovation delays, or staging a home for sale. In the Bowl, where homes sell fast and buyers often need 30-60 days to align financing, short-term storage keeps your furniture protected while you wait. We load once, store in our facility, and deliver when you’re ready. The price we quote is the price you pay, even if your timeline shifts by a week.
Long-Term Storage in Edmonds
Long-term storage in Edmonds starts around $150 per month and scales with volume. Families relocating from the plateau’s larger homes, military transfers from nearby bases, or estate situations all use this option. Your inventory is photographed and documented at pickup, and you can access it by appointment. We’ve stored Edmonds customers’ goods for six months, two years, longer, with the same accountability we’d want for our own.
Climate-Controlled Storage in Edmonds
Climate-controlled storage in Edmonds runs $200-$400 per month and is worth serious consideration for this market. Edmonds sits directly on Puget Sound and draws consistent marine moisture year-round. That humidity penetrates standard storage units, warps wood furniture, swells cabinet doors, and breeds mildew in upholstered pieces. If you’re storing antiques from a Bowl bungalow, musical instruments, or electronics through an October-to-April rainy season, climate control isn’t an upgrade, it’s protection. Our units maintain stable temperature and humidity, and every item we pack is covered by full-value protection.
Storage-in-Transit in Edmonds
Storage-in-transit in Edmonds is priced per load and duration, typically $150-$300 for the first month plus handling. This service bridges the gap when your new home isn’t ready but your old one is sold. We see it often with cross-town moves from the Bowl to the plateau, or when Edmonds sellers buy in Shoreline or Bothell West and closing dates don’t align. Your goods stay on our truck or in our vaults, fully insured, until delivery day. One crew loads, one crew delivers. No handoffs to third parties.

Fast turnaround matters when you’re paying rent on two spaces.
Common Moving & Storage Problems We See in Edmonds Homes
- Ferry gridlock on SR-104 traps unprepared crews. Summer weekends and commute windows back up the Edmonds-Kingston ferry queue through the Bowl’s surface streets with no bypass. Movers who don’t check the schedule lose hours sitting in traffic, and you pay for that time. We time every waterfront pickup and delivery around ferry departure cycles.
- Full-size trucks can’t reach Bowl properties. Narrow streets and steep grades in 98020 often block 26-footers from the front door. Unprepared movers show up with one big truck and no plan B. We survey access beforehand and dispatch shuttle vehicles when needed, already factored into your binding quote.
- Rain turns hillside carries into slip hazards. October through April, Edmonds marine moisture soaks driveways and turns metal truck ramps slick. Without proper traction mats, protective wrapping, and plastic sheeting, furniture gets damaged and people get hurt. Our crews gear for it every time.
- Low-clearance doors in mid-century bungalows fight large pieces. The 1940s-1960s housing stock in the Bowl has doorways and detached garages built for smaller furniture. Sectional sofas, modern refrigerators, and king mattresses often need disassembly or angled carries. We measure first, not after we’re stuck on your porch.

FAQs - Moving & Storage in Edmonds
We survey access beforehand and dispatch a smaller shuttle truck when narrow streets or steep grades block our full-size vehicle. We handled a move in the Bowl near the ferry terminal, where a mid-century bungalow on a sloped lot had a detached garage and a low-clearance front door. Our tech used a smaller shuttle truck to navigate the narrow streets, then wrapped and carried furniture up the hillside in the rain, protecting it with plastic sheeting before loading the main truck on the plateau above. The shuttle cost is built into your binding quote, not added as a surprise. Call (855) 890-3455 for a free estimate.
Yes, we check ferry departure cycles for every pickup or delivery in the waterfront neighborhood. During summer weekends and commute windows, ferry queues gridlock SR-104 and the Bowl’s surface streets with no practical bypass. We schedule arrivals to avoid those windows, not react to them after we’re stuck. This is standard planning for our Edmonds operations. Call (855) 890-3455 to book a move with proper traffic timing.
We use plastic sheeting, padded blankets, and moisture-resistant wrapping on every outdoor carry, plus traction mats on metal ramps and wet driveways. Edmonds sits directly on Puget Sound and gets consistent marine moisture; moves from October through April almost always involve rain, turning hillside driveways and metal truck ramps into slip hazards and requiring protective wrapping across longer-than-average outdoor carries between the truck and the door. Our crews gear for this every time, not just when the forecast looks bad. Call (855) 890-3455 to discuss protection for your specific move.
Yes, we measure doorways, halls, and staircases during your free survey, then disassemble pieces or use angled carries and specialized equipment as needed. The Bowl and downtown-adjacent blocks are dense with mid-century bungalows and ranchers built in the 1940s-1960s on tight, sloped lots with detached garages and low-clearance doorways that complicate large furniture and appliance moves. We don’t guess. We plan. Call (855) 890-3455 to schedule a survey.
Yes, for anything you wouldn’t leave in a damp garage through a Puget Sound winter. Edmonds’s marine moisture penetrates standard storage units, warping wood, swelling cabinets, and breeding mildew in upholstery. Climate-controlled storage at $200-$400 per month maintains stable humidity and temperature, and it’s covered by our full-value protection on everything we pack. For short holds in dry summer months, standard storage may suffice. For fall-through-spring storage, or for antiques, instruments, or electronics, climate control is the safer choice. Call (855) 890-3455 to compare options for your timeline.
