Moving Reviews

Mark B
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
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.

These guys came on a very short notice and window. Very professional, experienced and great to work with. I will be calling on them again for my next move. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. Outstanding customer service!!!

Chris and Davon were on time. And got to work right away. They amazingly were able to get the POD door open enough for Chris to wiggle under and dislodge a ladder that had launched into the door wedging the door shut. Once the door was open, they got to work and finished just at the contracted time. They took one quick break to hydrate after taking a few heavier furniture pieces up stairs navigating stairs into a really tight hallway. I would use them again, but hopefully I won’t have to for some time.

The move helpers were on time and loaded all items carefully into the POD. They took extra care to wrap furnishings! Everything was completed within 2 hours
Jeanette or Nick S
Carlos, A.J., Shyrun and MO really were the "elite team". They arrived on time, and did a superb job of wrapping and caring for my heirloom antiques and piano. They did not waste time, and worked hard the entire time. I especially liked how they encouraged and helped each other, with not even a cross word. True team work! I would definitely hire them again.

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.
