Why Do Kent Residents Love the Area?

With its mix of natural beauty, outdoor recreation and proximity to employment and entertainment areas, Kent offers residents something special that keeps them rooted here.

Local Attractions: Among Kent’s outdoor recreation options, the scenic Green River Trail, Lake Meridian Park, and the Soos Creek Botanical Garden. The city also has a vibrant arts scene, with the South of Willis Area (SOWA) district hosting galleries, studios, and community events year-round.

Food and Nightlife: Kent isn’t known for a bustling nightlife, but its international cuisines, from authentic Vietnamese and Mexican restaurants to Filipino eateries, are a highlight. Residents do enjoy a growing number of local bars, breweries, and entertainment venues.

Housing Market: Kent’s housing market sits in a sweet spot in the greater Seattle area, with median home values around $595,000 — significantly lower than those in nearby Seattle or Bellevue. The average apartment rent is just under $2,000 per month across a mix of studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom units.

Cost of Living: The overall cost of living in Kent runs about 24% higher than the national average, driven largely by above-average housing and transportation costs. However, compared to other cities in the Seattle metro, Kent remains one of the more budget-friendly options.

FAQ

Our full-service moves can range in cost from $150 to $180 per hour for two men and a truck. Other factors affecting the price include the time of year, additional services requested, and the complexity of the move.

According to Agoyu, when hiring movers, “the cost varies significantly based on the size of your home, the distance of your move, and various other factors. A local move could cost anywhere from $240 to $1,500, while a long-distance move could range from $1,200 to $6,000.”

Our Kent location offers a comprehensive list of services to meet a range of moving needs. Those needs include:

  • Supply of packing materials
  • Full packing and unpacking services
  • Furniture disassembly and reassembly
  • Loading and unloading of moving trucks
  • Transportation of belongings
  • Specialized handling of delicate items

Our Kent location features a 57,000-sq.-ft. storage warehouse. All of our facilities are pest-controlled, flood-protected, and under 24/7 surveillance—and we also have locations in Tacoma and Everett.

We offer three kinds of coverage for your move.

Released Value Coverage: Basic protection that comes with every move. Your mover is responsible for covering you for 72 cents per pound per article

Full Value Protection: Requires an extra fee. If something is lost or damaged, the company will repair, replace, or reimburse you for the item’s current market value.

Items of Extraordinary Value Declaration: If you have items worth $100 or more per pound, you need to tell the movers before the move. They’ll give you a special form to list these valuable items.

Book your movers as soon as possible. This is especially true if you’re planning to move during the busy summer months.

The best times to move are during the winter and spring when moving company schedules are at their lowest. The peak time for moving is the summer, and it can be much more difficult to schedule movers during this time.

For moves within Kent, try to book 4-6 weeks in advance of your move.

When choosing a moving company in Kent, Washington, ensure they have the right licenses and insurance.

Tipping your moving team isn’t required, but it’s always appreciated. Our movers are paid for the time they spend on your job.
