Arne Svendsen Trucking
Arne Svendsen started Arne Svendsen Trucking Inc. over forty years ago back in 1975 when he was only 16 years old. His first truck was a 1964 International that he paid $3200 for. He purchased his first new truck subsequently three years later, a White Western Star. In 1983 Arne graduated from WWU with a degree in Business after working himself through college with his truck hauling business. His plan was to sell his small business and enter the corporate world.
Arne sent out some resumes and was interviewed and offered a job working for the Penske Corporation in Manhattan Beach, California. He turned that job down and decided he actually preferred working for himself.
Today Arne Svendsen Trucking’s list of equipment features 12 yard dump trucks and trailers to double the load up to 24 yards as well as a smaller 5 yard truck for smaller deliveries and tighter quarters. And also a transfer truck for special situations that do arise. We also offer road, driveway and parking lot grading services.
We have over 5 trucks running crushed rock, pit run, sand, and drain rock to Skagit County featuring Mount Vernon, Burlington, Anacortes, Sedro-Woolley, La Conner and outlying areas South Whatcom and North Snohomish counties that feature Bellingham, Stanwood, Arlington, and Camano Island.
We also do gravel building pads, gravel roads and driveways as well as the sale and delivery of crushed rock, pit run, sand, and drain rock.

How is the cost of my shipment calculated?
If you are moving to a different state, the charges will be based on the weight of your
shipment and mileage—these are referred to as the transportation charges.
There are a variety of different moving charges that can potentially appear on your estimate,
so be sure to ask your relocation specialist to explain each charge for you.
Some additional charges that may appear include packing, crating, valuation or coverage,
bulky article charge (for oversized items), and extra labor. Again, please be certain you
fully understand these charges so that you can accurately compare the estimates you receive.
What is an order for service?
All movers are required to prepare an order for service before they transport your shipment.
The order for service provides you with written confirmation of the moving services that you
requested to be performed in conjunction with your shipment. It also lists the agreed upon
dates for the pickup and delivery of your shipment and amount of valuation that you requested,
along with any special services that you ordered.
It also features a place and telephone number where the mover can contact you during the move.
Additionally, the order for service shows the charges that you will be assessed for your
household move or corporate relocation. If you are moving under a non-binding estimate,
the order for service will indicate the amount of the estimated non-binding charges,
the method of payment for the charges and, in cases where the actual charges exceed the
non-binding estimate, the maximum amount that you are required to pay at the time of delivery
in order to obtain possession of your shipment (you will have 30 days following delivery to
pay the balance of the charges due). If you are moving under a binding estimate,
the order for service will show the charges that you will be required to pay at delivery,
based on the binding estimate and the terms of payment. You and your mover must sign the
order for service.
