Moving Reviews
Real Portland area customers. Unedited, unfiltered reviews of Oregon Trail Moving.
Linda P
These guys are great. I underestimated what it would take to load my pods but these two wonderful guys returned the next morning when I was in a real time crunch and got the job done in quick order. Fitting everything in. Great job
Marti S
Austin and Scott were on time, very professional, courteous and fun to work with. They protected surfaces in home while moving furniture and took all items to their designated spaces. They finished the work on time. I would use their service again. Highly recommend
Sue M

Stephanie W
Carlos and Aaron were just awesome. They were on time, prepared, and packed our belongings in our rental truck so well, that we were able to drive 2000+ miles over the Rocky Mountains to arrive at our new home with everything beautifully unharmed. They were so kind and respectful and lovely to work with. I would absolutely recommend this company. I also appreciated the check-in calls from the main office leading up to the move, making sure we had all the supplies we need. Great company!

Between the two gentleman, one was very efficient, careful with our belongings and extremely organized. Unfortunately the other gentleman was careless with our belongings, a few boxes fell right in front of me due to his lack of organization. We had to actually reorganize our storage unit we moved into, in order to make sure we had enough room to fit everything.

Hire A Helper Oregon Trail Moving was super helpful! Took A LOT of stress of packing our POD for our move out of state. I thought for sure everything wasn't going to fit but within minutes of assessing the situation, the movers put me at ease. We had tons of space to spare in our POD because these guys KNOW how to pack and did not waste an inch of space. They were in and out within an hour and a half and very hard workers. Best money I spent on this move! I would highly recommend them!

Get To Know Us
What can a customer expect after booking with you?
Customers will receive a follow up confirmation email upon booking. They will also receive a courtesy call the day before the move to confirm details and to inquire about any changes as is often the case with moving. Of course, at any time prior to your move you can contact Hire-A-Helper or speak with us directly with any changes or questions about your move. Friendly answers to questions are just a call away!
What can a customer expect on moving day if they hire you?
Our crews will arrive approximately 10 minutes before the scheduled time of the move and they will be waiting on-site to meet with you. They will arrive with all the specified equipment needed to complete your job as discussed and arranged previously with our staff. For every job they arrive with Tools, Dollys, Heavy Liftings Straps, Floor Runners for protection, Shrink Wrap & Moving Blankets, Tie Down Straps and more. If specified they will bring a variety of other equipment for Pianos, Hot Tubs etc.
How should a customer prepare for moving day?
Small and fragile items should be wrapped and boxed. Labeling boxes for your identification as well as the movers is always helpful at the other end. If you can stack boxes and arrange them so the movers are able to get to them with the Dollys this will save time and money. Stacks should be chest high and allowance for the movers to get to them should be made. Clear pathways for the movers, secure pets, and practice social distancing when the movers are on-site.
What types of moves have you handled?
We do all types of moving; Local, Long Distance, Office & Industrial. We are a Labor Moving Service. We do not provide or drive trucks. We specialize in container moves i.e. PODS, ABF, U-Pack, U-Box, & Pack Rat. Our customers also rent and drive their own trucks as well as rental moving trucks i.e. U-Haul, Penske, Enterprise, Budget, etc.
What's your favorite part about being a mover?
I am proud to be a native Oregonian. I was raised on a small cattle farm in Ashland. My Parents were full time teachers and farmers and showed me the fundamentals of hard work and perseverance. I thoroughly enjoy this business. From interacting with our customers to find solutions for their needs, and getting out and assisting our crews in the field. I look forward to meeting you and helping you along your way!
What training do you provide your crew members?
Safety is always #1 ! Every Oregon Trail Mover starts as a helper and follows experienced crew leads with after undergoing a rigorous training protocol process at our headquarters. Each crew member is first evaluated for their individual talents and abilities in order to assess where they may be utilized most effectively on our team whether that be packing and wrapping, detailed inventory with computer skills, or the ability to lift heavy weight repeatedly for hours on end.
