  • Upon request and at no charge, our crew members can wear masks while performing your move. Please simply notify your Relocation Consultant if this is your preference.

Hansen Bros. requests the following of our customers:

  • If you have a scheduled estimate appointment or booked move, please notify us immediately if you or any members of your household have been exposed to COVID-19, tested positive for COVID-19, or are experiencing symptoms including cough, fever, or difficulty breathing. Please rest assured there is NO CHARGE to reschedule your estimate or move due to illness – we will work together to find an alternate date that works for you.
  • Please use disinfectant/cleaner to wipe down commonly touched surfaces, objects, door handles, etc. at your residence.
  • Please make a sink, hand soap, and paper towels available to your outside salesperson and moving crew for handwashing during their time within your home.
  • Please keep all windows open throughout the moving process as this allows for greater airflow and reduces the containment of germs.

About Us

The very first Hansen Bros. moving truck.

For over a century . . .

Hansen Bros. Moving & Storage has been an industry leader in the Puget Sound area since 1890. From our founding roots in Seattle’s historic Pioneer Square, operating with horse drawn wagons to today’s multiple locations and 53 foot air ride trailers, we’ve developed and improved many of today’s industry practices.

Local ownership and management

Drawing from traditions of great grandfather Peter Hansen, through the fourth generation of family ownership, Hansen Bros. has over one hundred years of experience in providing the highest quality in moving and storage service. Some traditions from our early days still remain.

Three locations

With three convenient warehouse locations in Seattle, Newcastle, and Lynnwood, our customers receive dependable service just minutes away. These strategic locations around Puget Sound save you costly travel time.

Expert transportation— prompt communication

Hansen Bros.’ extensive hauling fleet and affiliation with Allied Van Lines makes it easy to handle all of your interstate moves. Our fleet is licensed and insured and features a complete network of fellow Allied agents across the country and around the world.

The team was very professional and did a great job even though they did back into my fence. 🙁
