I hired them to move things from one room to another. I was worried that the job was going to be kind of small (from a room in the 1st floor to another on the second floor), but there was some big furniture, many boxes, and a huge tempered glass white board that weighed a ton and barely made it up the stairs. They were so careful and respectful with all my stuff, patient from beginning to end, and were always positive and willing to follow my guidance about item placement. They went up and down between the rooms for a good 3 hours. There is no way I could’ve done this project without their help, and they will definitely be the first movers I call next time for projects big or small. Thank you!
Details: 3-5 items • Bed frame • Mattress • Boxes • Other furniture items • Within the same building • No change in floors to load items • Stairs to unload items

We just decided today to try & hire movers to move the furniture used to stage a home sale. They responded promptly & said they had their own truck. They told us how much it would cost & said they could come do it today (Sunday). Two nicely dressed & very professional young men showed up right on time. They worked so hard & quickly. My husband was commenting the whole time how hard they were working “definitely not working like the last HOURLY movers we hired”
They were super polite & careful with our furniture. They even wrapped our leather couches. Which the last guys we hired did not. I would DEFINITELY hire these guys again.
Thanks guys!! We really appreciate all your hard work today!!
Details: 6-10 items • Sofa • Armchair / recliner • Loveseat • Side table / lounge table • Less than 5 miles • No change in floors to load items • Stairs to unload items

Mike and Joe were great. They moved the furniture very carefully and went out of their way to do more than I had originally requested. They worked fast and hard but used proper techniques and protected furniture from damage with blankets. I would hire them again in a minute and give my highest recommendation!
Details: Studio • Apartment • 5 - 10 miles • No boxes • Load via passenger elevator • Unload via stairs

We are so grateful for Less Stress Moving! They have helped us three times with packing, moving, storing and unpacking our house and my sewing studio. Each time they were focused, courteous and listened to what we needed to happen. Myke earned my trust right from the start. He never left me wondering about the schedule or whether they were going to show up – updating with calls and texts for each step of what seemed like a complex move to me.
For my studio, Myke and Joe carefully wrapped my sewing machines and treated all the boxes marked fragile with extra care. They repeatedly asked whether they were placing my things in the right spot.
When moving our entire household, Myke, Joe & Tim hustled, with a contagious cheerfulness that truly lifted our spirits, a light in the new chapter in our lives.
Less Stress Moving offers everything – respect, multi-talented logistical skills (they even set up our new bed frames), professionalism, a can-do attitude, flexibility, humor, and genuine kindness. We can’t recommend them highly enough!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
All local moving is charged by the hour. The time starts when we arrive at the origin and ends when we are finished unloading at the destination. We do not charge for drive time nor are there any hidden fees. We accept Cash, Check or Card.
What types of customers have you worked with?
We deal with anyone from any circumstance. From apartments to 5 bedroom homes, we can get the job done stress free and professionally.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
It’s important to always hire an authorized, licensed and insured mover. The state of Oregon is highly regulated for moving thus making it a state with a lot of illegal moving companies. To check out credentials on all authorized moving companies, you can visit the state website and scroll down to the list of authorized movers.
