It was simple this time, from point A to B, then C. They pick up a new couch for me. I had one of the same workers from last time. He was still professional and a hard worker. I had one mirror hiccup that something got put on the truck that wasn't going with me, but that was my fault for not giving better instructions. They offer to put together my new couch, but I had that covered. I need them to move the heavy stuff. They did another outstanding job, and I will recommend them to anyone. Side Note: Photograph all your things before and after. If something gets broken, you need proof. They do offer free insurance, but they need documentation.

Adam and Danny arrived on time and packed up my Dads stuff in a timely manner. When they were done…read morethey asked if there was anything else they needed to take (we left cleaning stuff to use later) They were also very efficient in unpacking and asked where everything went. The reason for the 4 stars is I see on the invoice they do have a senior rate but we were charged regular rate. My dad is 84 and my husband and myself are both over 60 so we should have qualified. When I called to schedule I told them my 84 year old dad was moving in with us after my Mom passed so they knew up front. The only reason I called to schedule was because Dad is hard of hearing.

Absolutely phenomenal two-man moving team! From a last minute request with customer service…read moreanswering all my questions to the team keeping me updated on their arrival time. They both kept constant communication throughout the unloading process. I value the genuine care they provided to our belongings as well rather than rushing through. Highly recommend as a first choice because they'll find a way to make it happen. These examples all told me that they too are being taken care of by their leadership and enjoy what they do. Thank you Cal's Moving!

A bit of a bumpy ride, but in the end I am satisfied, as you can see by the 4-star rating…read more We were moving about an hour to a new home and chose Cal's as our mover, having them pack at the old home, then move and unpack at the new home. I'll start with the good stuff: the people who came to our home to do the packing, moving, and unpacking were great. Our headaches were all administrative. I'll list them and then explain how they were resolved. The person who came to the old home to estimate the job -- or someone else back at the office -- missed the mark. They scheduled a half day to pack and one day to move and unload. In the end, it took a full day to pack and two days to move and unload. This didn't cause any real problems for us, just a lot of scrambling and phone calls to deal with the unexpected. The other issue was some unintended overcharging, on top of a final cost that ended up well above the original estimate. On a call before the final bill was written up, I was told we wouldn't incur extra costs for the move and unpacking taking two days instead of one. My wife ended up signing the final bill without me present, and that promised adjustment hadn't made it onto the paperwork, so the overcharge went through unquestioned. After some back and forth, we were refunded the overage. A second charge we disputed was a credit card surcharge that hadn't been disclosed upfront, either in our planning conversations or in the signed contract. Cal's refunded that fee as well once we raised it. Both issues were resolved within about a week of us raising them, which I appreciated. The reason for four stars instead of five is the estimate itself: it was about $4,500, and we ended up paying just over $7,000. I was actually surprised by the $4,500 figure at the time, since other estimates I'd gotten for this move were in the $7,000-$8,000 range. In the end, the final cost was about what it should have been, the original estimate was just way off.

Hands down the best movers we've experienced in the last 20 years. They helped us move from Albany…read moreto Beaverton yesterday. The crew of Brad, Morgan, and Jesse were on time, courteous, transparent about any pre-existing damages or small items, efficient, and to top it all off they literally did not scratch/hit/mark one single wall of the house when moving. All 3 were absolute beasts in moving heavy furniture upstairs, and a few times we ended up deciding on a difference placement of a furniture item they already placed and every time they were more than happy to help rearrange it as needed. You really can't ask for more in a moving company. They were willing to accommodate, went the extra mile on servicing things, and were lighthearted and carried a positive attitude through the whole 12-14 hour day. I would honestly ask them to help move for any future moves in my lifetime. It is not easy doing their profession, but they seem very dedicated and deserve every ounce of recognition. Hats off to you guys!

Signs were still up on the street they also did not mention what time they closed. I was very disappointed with the trip that we took for absolutely nothing and we got back to the car and checked the craigslist ad and it had no mention of it being over at 1:00 . I really think that if you were going to use them you should really think about it because it didn't appear like it was something that I would want to have anything to do with anyway that's my POV.

Do not use these people if you value your possessions and furniture…read more They showed complete disregard for any care. We used them for a 300 mile move within the state. They do not take an inventory of items loaded. When our furniture arrived at the destination a brand new wooden bed frame was broken as well as an antique record cabinet. Total value of both was approx. $550. Lile paid $139.00 for replacement. Replacement for the bed frame alone was approx. $450.00, price for the antique record cabinet is unknown. We still have small items we are not able to locate. We found small items waded up in packing paper but not labeled. For instance three sand dollars waded up in paper. Four screws waded up in paper not labled. There were several waded up pieces of paper that contained small items taped and unlabled. Fortunately we opened some but I am positive some small wrapped items were discarded as dunnage. We had a large wall clock packed and marked This Side Up with arrows pointing upwards, this was found in our living room upside down. The clock is still in the shop. I did not mention smaller broken items such as glassware, dishes etc. there was only a few. A different crew unloaded the truck than the ones that loaded it so they knew nothing of any necessary re-assembly. These movers were definitely like "bulls in a china shop" In closing all I can say is buyer beware and do some research!

Previous review removed and don't know why. This company moved us out of Oregon. Very long story…read moreshort- our items were delivered 6 weeks late and changed hands at least 5 times. We were continually told items were in transit when they were in fact in storage without our knowledge. Inflation adjusted over $15,000 missing and broken items when finally arrived. We were told we were liars and our fault things missing. I have the emails to show if anyone wants proof off of this. Nine months later we have been issued half the amount. Look at my reviews also for Class Pays who this moving company used to store our items a second time without our consent. Work was delayed due to no work clothes. Beware of this company. Once your items leave the state they become NorthAmerican only who has loads of legal protections to make your measly household items a joke.
