What can I say? We couldn't have done it without PHA. We'd been in our house for 20 years, and with…read morethe kids moved out we decided to put our house on the market and find a home that would be larger but less work (I know, doesn't sound logical). PHA provided a very reasonable proposal to accomplish our move in three steps: the pre-move, the actual move, and the move-in to the new house. So the first step was to do the "Pre-Move" which meant cleaning out 20 years of accumulated treasures and preparing our house for marketing. This was a much larger task than I had anticipated, but the PHA crew accomplished efficiently and gracefully. It's not easy deciding what can go bye-bye (and if so, where, when, and how) and what should go into storage awaiting the actual move. Peggy's crew were hard-working, asked questions when there was ever any doubt, and wrapped and boxed our belongings carefully. Peggy provided very helpful advice on what ought to stay in the house and what adjustments could be made to how we presented things. 7 months later, as actual moving day drew near, Peggy organized the movers and brought her crew in to wrap, box, and prepare everything that needed to be moved to the new house. All dishes, artwork, and furniture were prepared and staged for the day the movers arrived, so the move went super efficiently and without a glitch. At the new house, Peggy's crew was there all day to un-box and put away all manner of furnishings. Since they had done the front end of the move, they had good ideas about what we wanted for setup in the new house, and they worked a full day on moving day and two days after, helping us unpack and setup. They were extremely cheerful and hardworking.....and above all, they were super neat. All paper, cardboard, bubble wrap, and tape was collected and bundled for recycling, and one call to the waste company had it all taken away.....so within the first week our new house was completely set up with no post-moving residue whatsoever. Now that I think back on it, I know PHA was worth every single penny. Knowing what I know now, if there were no such thing as Peggy Hughes Associates, I wouldn't move. She fills a need that you might not know you have until it's too late. Unless you call PHA first!

Peggy's team did an amazing job of moving us from SF to PDX. We hired them for packing all of our…read moreitems (nothing broke!) and moving them to Portland and bringing in all furniture and boxes. In retrospect, I wish we had hired them for unpacking too! They were prompt, communicative, courteous and professional. In fact, they moved us after we left and we trusted them to handle everything including handing over keys to the rental office. They are not the cheapest in town but their prices are fair and reflect their professionalism.

Heather and her team are professional, skilled, and kind. They were great about checking in with me about my preferences, but needed almost no direction in order to effectively do their job. They also clearly have an eye for strong organization -- things were unpacked logically and easy to find. We're only about three weeks in, but so far everything is staying organized, in large part because everything has a logical place. Heather's team works closely with Niall and from Fiddler's Green Moving, and during our second move (8/2024) we contracted with both companies under one simple invoice with InPlace, which is a pretty epic and streamlined way to do things. Niall's team and Heather moved everything into boxes in one day, and then Niall and Heather's teams unpacked it all on day two. This means all of our stuff went from being unpacked in our old house to fully unpacked and organized in our new house in just two days!! I am certain it would have taken my family weeks if not months to do everything they did. Overall, I found it to be an amazing value for the peace of mind and time savings. I could not recommend InPlace more for your moving needs!

This owner Edgar is threatening legal action for his own employees being late, damaging my things,…read morenot working while on the clock, having their phone "die" and not be able to find my place for 1-3 hours, and to pay additional fees and services that I never agreed to via text, phone, email, or verbally. Let me be clear: I have used their service for 7+ years and loved them. And now this guy has the audacity to threaten legal action for me to pay fees which were never disclosed, mentioned, and never agreed to. Here is a snippet of why I am so upset: - rescheduling 2x - being late day of move (10am turned into 12pm, 1pm, 2pm and finally 3:30pm) - movers were slow (some times not working at all on the clock) - movers damaged many of my belongings - I had paid $50-$100 for food and drinks to help them have food + energy to keep moving & working (my own pocket!) - movers did not have extra boxes as requested (and promised per text) - no notification was given ahead of time for any extra payment for gas / mileage / extra day charges (as it was assumed they would have been there early AM) - movers were sitting around at times not work / packing - 30-60 minutes of time was spent eating & drinking (I was ok with this as I thought they needed food and drinks, and energy to keep moving. I assumed I wouldn't be charged for this additional time but I was) - every other time moving Edgar + another mover did an exceptional and fast job. Well worth the time + money; this time was the worse experience ever - it is not my responsibility to have the movers have their phones charged and have directions to get to a given location (they never charged it despite me offering to charge their phone) --- their phone was dead and therefore the reason for being late was "not having directions". - I had 2 different movers willing to help me, with lower quotes, faster response time, and ability to do everything as requested and extra helpers I have no income or job at the moment. I offered to negotiate a way to pay them back after I get employment. Instead, this guy messages me and threatens legal action for not paying. Who pays for employees who don't work, can't do their job, arrive to the point where you can't return a U-Haul you rented yourself, and can't use common sense to buy a cheap charger at a gas station so you can recharge your phone? Your customers are not responsible for your negligence or incompetence, or the negligence and incompetence of your employees. It's your responsibility as a manager and business owner. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM NOW OR EVER AGAIN. I suggest anyone who has had a bad experience to report them to the BBB (better business bureau) and report them for harassment, threatening their customers, and scamming for requesting their customers pay an excess of fees never disclosed to them or agreed upon. This is an illegal practice and is especially not how you treat a customer of 7+ years. Seriously you can find almost anyone with cheaper rates who do the job better, faster, and reliably.

The movers showed up at 7pm and realized at 11pm. The movers then left my belongings in a relatives garage and once again showed up the next day once again at 7 pm after promising a 7am pickup. The next day on the 27th, I call to ask for the departure time and did not receive a call back until after 12pm. Apparently, U-Haul would not rent a truck to him due to problems with prior issues. I called him everyday with him promising each day to deliver my belongings. Long story short, my belongings were not delivered until 9/30, six days later. The screws and bolts to my furniture were misplaced, so the movers left my furniture unassembled. In the end, I was charge over $3200.

Cindy listened to our needs. We had a condo that needed to be sold quickly. She was able to respond quickly to all emails and meet our HOA's requirements. When she was done staging, it was breath taking. She made it clean, modern, spacious and welcoming. Her moving crew were very efficient and mindful not to damage the walls or elevators. I believe due to her staging, our condo sold more quickly than anticipated. Our realtor had a showing of the unit before it went on the market. He called me that night to say we got an offer ABOVE asking and all cash. He said the new owners were loving the layout and the staging. So Thanks Cindy for your amazing work.

This company is downright CRIMINAL and you should avoid at all cost…read more Be warned, if you want your furniture and belongings treated like trash - to end up scratched, broken, and shattered - while being charged over 3x your original Do-Not-Exceed price, then go ahead and hire this company. If you value your time, money, and belongings, I advise you to look elsewhere. First, we were quoted $900 to move our 1 bedroom apt to a building literally across the street. Prior to move-out date, we had already made a dozen trips and cleared out much of the apartment. We sent them an excel list of everything remaining and signed a contract with a DO-NOT-EXCEED cost of $900. On moving day, the two-movers were late, and extremely slow. They ran out of plastic wrap early in the move, and instead of getting more, decided to throw all of our furniture in their truck unwrapped. After 8 hours of move, they asked me if I would authorize an additional person. I agreed. 11 hours later, and nearly every item of furniture that was moved being damaged, I received the invoice. $2,900. They charged us full overtime for ALL THREE of the movers after the 8 hour mark. This wasn't right, and was a very deliberate overtime-earning tactic, but whatever. And what about the damaged furniture? The movers asked me to take it up with their head, Ricardo, and I agreed. I still tipped the movers despite feeling extremely frustrated at the entire process. The next day, I received a notice on my debit card that the full amount had been charged to my card without authorization. I called Ricardo and did not pick up or respond to email. I contested the charge. Larro's moving submitted a FALSIFIED document where they handwrote a "2" in front of the original $900 to submit to the credit card company. You really can't make this up. As I paid with a debit card, my dispute was denied. Thumbtack, where we found this company, was not helpful as they are purely a marketplace. Lastly, my mistake for not doing this, but always take a photo of the agreement and DNE price (or receive a carbon copy), and never pay with a debit card.
