Company information

It was 1990 when Scott R. Gillis founded his moving company, Great Scott Moving. He was determined to offer something no one else did. Thankfully for Washington residents, he achieved what he set out to do and continues to do so to this day. What he did was exclusively hire athletes to be a part of his team. Football, rugby, baseball, running, rowing... you name it; he's hired someone who played that sport. Even Olympic athletes have passed through Scott's doors. This level of fitness allows this crew of movers to complete any job quickly and safely, thus saving you time and money. Whether moving homes or offices, the Great Scott team can expertly help you pack, transport, and unpack your stuff.
