Company information

Since 1992, Golden Services has been helping people move. The company was started by Ed Zielinski. Ed's main motivation was to support military families. At first, the business had a small office and only a few trucks, but it soon grew into one of Washington's biggest companies. With over 140 workers, Golden Services moves more than 7,000 homes and offices per year. These movers relocate businesses and families alike. They also provide safe storage for all items. They help people pack and carefully move their things. They'll treat your belongings like their own and ensure everything is secure throughout the entire process. Golden Services has won many awards for its excellent work, like the Suddath Government Services Excellence Award in 2015. That same year, it earned the Arpin International Group Silver Quality Award. Thanks to its commitment and dedication, Golden Services has become known for its trustworthiness and attentive disposition. These guys are always there for their customers, helping them move smoothly. Whether down the street or across the country, Golden Services will make moving easy and stress-free. Proud of their work, they are happy to help people in any way possible.
