Company information

Gentle Giant Moving Company launched their Phoenix operation in 2022, bringing decades of nationwide expertise to Arizona's unique desert moving challenges. This established company doesn't mess around when it comes to hiring - they specifically recruit athletic, full-time movers who can handle Phoenix's brutal summer heat while protecting customers' belongings from temperature extremes. What makes them different from typical Phoenix moving outfits is their refusal to subcontract work like most national chains do. Every crew member is a direct Gentle Giant employee, which means consistent training and accountability that you just don't get with companies using random local contractors. Their Phoenix location at 4600 E. Washington Street puts them perfectly positioned to serve everywhere from downtown high-rises to Scottsdale mansions without crazy drive-time charges. While other companies talk about customer satisfaction, Gentle Giant backs it up with their 100% Crew Guarantee - if any team member doesn't meet expectations, they'll make it right or refund that person's portion of the bill.
