Lakewood Moving Tips
Local insights to make your Lakewood move smoother.
I-5 Traffic Planning
I-5 through Lakewood gets congested during rush hours. Schedule moves to start early morning or avoid 4-6 PM if possible. Base traffic near gates also peaks at shift changes.
Base Access
Moving on/off JBLM? Coordinate base passes in advance. Our crews are familiar with base moving procedures and can work with the Transportation Office.
Weather Prep
Pacific Northwest rain is real. We bring floor protection and plastic wrap, but having towels ready for drying furniture helps. We work rain or shine!
Apartment Complexes
Many Lakewood apartments require elevator reservations or have loading zone time limits. Check with management and reserve the elevator for move day.
