We had two very good experienced workers who were very eager and respectful. I had plan for a four hour task loading and they were very efficient and used extreme care handling our valuable wrapped furniture. Everything went so smooth, we were finished in two hours. Two great guys and I would recommend them very much. Thank You. Joe Martinez

Amazing team. Super friendly, upbeat and undeterred. They worked 4 hours over what I had anticipated. They didn’t even take a break.
I would absolutely hire them again!

Mover's response:
Daniela thank you for the review! I'm glad you had a great experience with the crew that we sent out. Its good to see that the love for their jobs, shows in their work!

Devon, Chris and Chris were on time, got right to work and finished on time. They handled our things carefully and packed them in the Pod perfectly. Three flights of stairs to deal with, too! Definitely recommend Oregon Trail movers. Their office was nice, too, gave me some helpful packing advice.

Mover's response:
Lisa thank you for taking the time to write us this lovely review. We strive to treat your items as carefully as we would our own and always want to be extra sure they make it to their destinations safely!

The team was professional and efficient. They took apart the remainder of my furniture in record time with care and got everything packed well in to my POD unit. They saved me a huge amount of time and handled a sensitive move (emotionally) with care. Their customer service in advance of the move was stellar. Highly recommend.

Mover's response:
One of our goals is to provide excellent customer service from start to finish. I'm happy we were able to handle your move with efficiency and compassion. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience Sara, it is much appreciated!

The men showed up timely. They had the proper moving gear for safety (mats, etc.). They carefully moved and even helped assemble larger furniture pieces. I was very happy with their professionalism, especially after having a very poor experience with another movers group out of Sacramento.

Excellent workers. Efficient and respectful of property. Would definitely use them again. I would recommend them to friends.

These guys worked hard! They unloaded a 27' trailer and were able to get an 800lb gun safe up a flight of stairs. Highly recommended. I would use them again myself.

Kristine S

(3) 10/5/2019 Albany

One of the workers stopped working after 1 hour. I was charged for 3 hours although the 1 1/2 workers only stayed for 2 hours. Would not use again.

Katie T

The guys did a great job! They loaded our POD perfectly and were careful with our items. Quick and easy process! Friendly service. Thank you!

Mover's response:
Hi Katie, thank you for the review! I am so glad you had a great experience with us.

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.
