FAQ About Portland Movers
Moving services in Portland include local and long-distance moving, packing and unpacking, storage solutions, furniture assembly, and specialty item handling for delicate or oversized belongings.
iMoving offers a wide range of auto transporters to get your dream garage from point A to point B. You can only drive one car at a time, and you probably don't want to shove a bunch of moving boxes into your Lambo, anyway.
Fortunately, our auto transporters have you covered - and if you book a covered trailer, they'll have your car covered too.
Movers need to have an official Department of Transportation (DOT) number, which you should be able to find on their website.
If a moving company handles long distance moves that cross state lines, they'll also need a Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) number. Don't forget to check reviews and look for any insurance info they may feature on their website.
It's always a good idea to get insurance, and in the interest of being responsible, we're not going to tell you to skip it.
However, if you're feeling risky and you're only moving a couple of blocks (without anything fragile thrown in the mix), you may be able to get away with the basic coverage offered by your movers.
In the moving industry, there are three types of estimates: binding, non-binding, and non-binding, not-too-exceed. When you get a binding estimate, it means you’re getting a flat rate. The amount on your quote is the amount you’ll pay.
Binding estimates are a good sign you’re dealing with a reputable mover. Non-binding estimates can be adjusted before, during, and after a move, but non-binding, not-to-exceed estimates can only be adjusted downwards from your initial price.
The cost to hire a mover in Portland typically ranges from $550 to $1,500, depending on the distance, size of the move, and additional services like packing or storage.
Tipping movers $20 per person is generally acceptable for small local moves. For longer or more complex moves, tipping around 5-10% of the total cost is recommended.
Portland movers recommend using sturdy boxes, wrapping fragile items carefully, and labeling boxes by room. Be mindful of Portland’s rainy climate and consider waterproof materials for protection.
If you have large or delicate items, consider hiring movers with experience in handling specialty items. You can also use custom crating, padding, and disassembly services to ensure safe transport.
In Portland, you can responsibly dispose of unwanted items by donating to local charities, recycling through city programs, or arranging for bulk pickup or eco-friendly disposal services.
