The Cost of Moving Services in Salem, OR

Beyond factors like home size, heavy items, and stairs, the biggest cost difference comes down to your moving service type.

The moving team was so amazing. They were warm, kind, and very professional. All of my belongings were treated with care and so was I. They were so wonderful that I immediately booked them to help me unpack, which they did in record speed.

Communication was excellent, job was super smooth, and the price was even better. Tony and Jacob made my life so much easier by loading up my POD for me. No way could I have done that myself. Would highly recommend this service to anyone who is in need.
