Moving Reviews
Real Portland area customers. Unedited, unfiltered reviews of Oregon Trail Moving.
James H
One experienced mover and two newbies did a very good job packing my POD in a safe and timely manner. I will hire them later to unpack.
Patricia S
Brad and Jonathan were on time and were tireless workers. They took extra care in moving in my furniture and were friendly and respectful to me and my family. I am so thankful for their help. I would recommend them and the company to anyone getting ready to move.
Thank you,
Patsy.
Evan T
fast, respectful of our possessions (event went so far as to pick up a penny and place it in a collections spot for loose knick knacks that they found with the move). They worked very hard and fast - impressive job! Would use them again.
Gina S
My experience with Oregon Trail Moving was as ideal from start to finish as anyone could ask for. The initial phone call was so pleasant and easy and that goodness continued until the last item was carefully brought into my new home. I have antique furniture and the young men were so careful, efficient, strong and adept that everything was inside without a scratch, even four flights of stairs up, faster than I thought possible. They were very polite and responsible. On time, excellent help I would definitely hire again.
Beth M

Vicki H
Friendly, Quick and know how to pack very well, Listen to what we needed to be pack and loaded. They load even more than we expected, we helped a lot. Very respectful of our property and very careful with the TVs and secured so nothing got broken. They Disassembled and assembled each beds we had, one was a bunk bed. They were able to get around narrow hallways. Over all a great team work glad they came to help us. Would refer them to anyone. Thank you so much Vicki
Jonelle C
John & Wes were the best. Thank you for helping keep us sane during the move of our pack rat mother! They were early, loaded everything great and were so polite and respectful. Wish we could use them for unloading where we're going. I would recommend Oregon Trail to anyone!
Yvonne C
My experience with Oregon Trail Movers (OTM) was A+. Excellent, skilled, knowledgible, respectful service at every phase in the process. I am pleased to recommend OTM and will definitely request them again.
Alan P
They arrived before time. They are very courteous young men and work very hard. Their packing of our furniture in a 15' U-Haul was masterful and 2 trips completed the job. Great job, Jake and Gavin!

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.
