Hi all,

Well, I'm moving from SW Portland to SE Portland in a very few weeks now. It's a very small move with no major appliances and just a few pieces of furniture and should not take the movers very long. I have a couple of quotes; I have to admit, the prices seem steep, but I have not used a moving company in 20 years and of course prices have increased. Can anyone recommend a local moving company they've used and were happy with? Or were not happy and can warn against?

Thank you!

I've use a guy who I called "Dave the Mover" a couple times. A few years ago I heard that he sold the business to an employee. The service has always been top notch: Dave Gordon Moves | Beaverton, OR 97006 | Angies List

If you rent your own truck, (U-haul?) it's cheaper to hire helpers to load and unload due to no insurance costs.

We've used Smooth Move People more than once, and have been happy with their service.
