Matt, Liam, Joey and Dakota did a great job. They got the move done in the time frame we agreed on up front, and they were very careful with our belongings. We would be happy to work with you again.
Many Thanks, Daniel

The ‘3 strong guys’ showed up on time- were courteous, customer focused and efficient. We walked thru the house together prior to them beginning the unloading process, and ‘placed’ all the big furniture and boxes. From that point on, they worked together, and with me when questions arose, to unload and place things exactly as I wanted them. They worked hard together and collaborated well. They finished two hours early! I’ve never had such a good moving team!!!!

I recently hired them to move my belongings from a 26 ft moving truck we just drove across country, into my townhome. From start to finish Matt, Christian, and Joey were true professionals. They were very friendly, caring, and kept an outstanding positive attitude throughout the entire 3 hours. They moved several very heavy pieces of furniture, including a few with marble tops, with great care and they made it look effortless. It was like having 3 NFL players! I've hired several moving companies in the past, and these guys were truly exceptional! Instead of using a dolly or hand truck to move all my heavy boxes and furniture upstairs and throughout the house, they hand carried everything, so no damage to floors. They were prompt, communicated any issues or concerns well, priced fairly, and are SUPER hard workers! I highly recommend them and will definitely use them in the future!

They arrived a little past the quoted time slot, but it's better to be late than never.

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.
