We've had Managed Moves help us multiple times, mostly moving a loved one into and out of care homes. We are always on a tight deadline crunch to get everything set up quickly so our loved one enters their new home surrounded by their familiar personal belongings in their new space. Managed Moves has good customer service people answering their phones, and were able to fit our move window in their schedule each time.They have an efficient system for getting the information they need to build an estimate. They worked with us to find a later than normal arrival window to minimize the impact on our loved one. And they were familiar with the care facility we were moving my loved one into - they coordinated with the facility and eased one more aspect of the move. The staff is prompt, friendly, and efficient. They are easy to work with and accommodated as little or as much assistance with the move as we wanted or needed. I appreciated that after the initial assessment by their estimator, the two subsequent moves (moving the exact same items) did not require additional estimates. They even remembered us and I got a personal call recognizing the challenge of needing to move again in a short period of time and reassuring me that they would take good care of us...and they did. Managed Moves will be my go-to movers for any additional moving needs, and I would recommend them highly. read more

For further proof of how Managed Moves behaves, the response from Krista (the second of the two owners I spoke to, the one who agreed that her co-owner Steve should be fired for his behavior if he weren't an owner) demonstrates their total dishonesty. She also still can't apologize, and I don't even know what the things "beyond their control" supposedly were, since she's now pulling that one out of thin air. Yes, you had no control over the months that you kept telling me you had things in storage you later admitted you'd already lost. As noted in the review, I considered the settlement insulting, and I told Krista so on the phone. I told her in as many words that the review would remain one star, would remain comprehensive, and that not only was I accepting the settlement only to not have to deal with them anymore, but that I would be mentioning that in the review. For her to feign surprise and disappointment now is gaslighting, pure and simple. She cannot make her company's behavior, which I have laid out as it happened, look reasonable, so she is lying to make me appear unreasonable instead. Again, they lost things, they broke things, they spent months pretending to have those things in storage before admitting they never did. Things disappeared from a room they were told not to enter. (Mostly they just seemed incompetent and crude, but it's pretty hard to think of anything else to call this one but theft.) When my father died during the process, they gave us a new labeling system, then when they lost things that had both versions of the "Keep" label on it, they kept invoking the original labeling system to somehow try to blame us. Given that this was the same company that never expressed any form of condolences, this was basically them spitting on his grave while we mourned. That's who they are when they are caught. Now they are again calling my family liars, but this time in public. What Krista seems to believe is that a settlement for serious failures on Managed Moves' part, even one that she is told at the time is inadequate to the damage done, is a payment for you to pretend that the damage never existed, which is why they ask people to remove their negative reviews and why she is now acting betrayed that I am still telling the truth despite, in her eyes, being paid off. She apparently doesn't see this as money she owed my family for losing and breaking their things, overcharging them, and then lying to them and insulting them for months on end; she just sees that I didn't do my end on what she treated as a bribe. In claiming harassment, Krista is referring to exactly two emails, btw. The first was to alert her I'd updated the Yelp review, as we agreed on the phone. The second was in response to her leaving a similar dishonest reply to a Google review. While she lies and says "more than a year," both were within a few months of us resolving our business. (It has in fact *now* only been five months since we concluded and only seven since we first spoke, so her claim is literally impossible.) It is important to remember that these people will lie about anything. There is nothing you can do to prevent them doing this to your family except running the other way. There's no guarantee Managed Moves will screw up as catastrophically for you as they did for my parents, but if they do, it is guaranteed that they will go to any length to screw you afterward. It's not worth the risk. But if I have to give one piece of advice: When I told them I'd be there on the clean-out days, they argued *hard* for me not to be present. Letting them sway me from being there, knowing what I know now, is one of my biggest regrets, so if you do decide to roll the dice with Managed Moves, make sure they are never in your house without you present. So much heartbreak could have been avoided. read more

Managed Moves handled a move for a little over a year ago. Everything went more smoothly than expected, at an excellent value, and we were delighted. So, when it came time to move again, we wanted to use them, but we had to take bids because money was tight. Like before, their bid came in lower than most, and we made an appointment. Then, an unfortunate event affected our finances, and it seemed the move would have to be postponed. The folks in the office, however, found a way to accommodate us, and the move was on. It was then that Managed Moves did an even better job than before and delivered the best moving experience I've ever had. I've moved many times over fifty years and have a long yardstick to measure. The workers were absolutely amazing! They even offered to remove or cover their shoes to protect our floors. They were efficient and courteous and kept things light and fun while getting the work done. They finished so quickly that the invoice totaled roughly 60% of the estimate. How often does a company reduce read more

Managed Moves - Kitchen and wonder cat - Movers Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Fantastic company. They are very professional and communicative. We always knew what was going to be done, the cost, and what would heppen next. They stayed on top of it all. The packers were polite, careful, and efficient. The movers were all business and thorough. We had a couple hard pieces to move and they made it look easy. The estimate was clear and we were pleased that the final cost was somewhat less. read more

This move would NOT have happened without Managed Moves and their agent, Marie. their service was superb!! Honesty and follow-through all the way to unpacking and organizing my new place. Their quotes were accurate; their team was well-managed and experienced; the agent in charge was able to provide information on everything from donations to consignment and to arrange whatever I needed.. They did everything I asked them to do, above and beyond!!! read more

I used Managed Moves to pack and move me from my apartment into a storage unit. I was impressed at how quickly they responded and how they fit me into their already packed schedule. There were a couple of hiccups that were immediately addressed and resolved which I appreciated. Moves are hard and there is always concern that your things could get damaged. Managed Moves did a wonderful job of making sure my things were protected. Will definitely use them when I move back to the area! read more

I recently contracted with Managed Moves to pack and move about 5 miles from a 2 bedroom condo to a one bedroom independent living apartment. I found the experience to be very efficient. The communication very good and all people I had contact with very friendly. The final invoice was less than the estimate. The care and communication reflect experience doing these moves. I would not hesitate to recommend or use them again. They are trustworthy and dependable. read more

Robert and Jaymie did an excellent job moving my mother. They got right to the task and worked until completion. Thank you!

Managed Moves moved us from our home of 20 years into a U-Haul to go to Salt Lake City, and Cary, Megan, Hayley, Krista, Chelsie, Elijah, Matthew, and Dan were absolutely amazing! We set everything up with Cary, Megan, and Hayley, and they did a wonderful job of keeping us updated on what was happening with the move, and everything went smoothly because of their initial organization. Krista did the walk through of our home with us, and she let us know exactly what her crew would be doing when they came to move us. Krista took pictures and discussed with us how the move would work, and she listened to our concerns and easily answered our questions. She was kind and supportive, and she calmed us with her positive manner and her clear explanations. Chelsie came before the movers, and she wrapped all of our pictures and art works. We knew that they would end up in fine shape because of her attention to detail and her thorough and careful work. On the day of the move, Elijah, Matthew, and Dan walked through the house with us, and we discussed what items needed to be loaded into the truck, and they took it from there. They were quick and efficient, and they worked together as a well synchronized team - and they still had time to share a smile with us as we saw our belongings get well packed into the truck. Everything arrived in fine shape when we unloaded it, and it was their superb packing job that made the unloading process go without a hitch. We can easily and strongly recommend Managed Moves for your moving needs, and we would definitely use them again! Sincerely,- amy alice hammond - Review from Patricia D 1 star 05/17/2023 Do not use this company. They stole an entire garage of furniture and other valuable household goods. They were told not to go back to the house and not to take the rest of the stuff from the ******** called them the next day and asked where the stuff was told it had been donated. I drove to the place supposedly donated too but they had not received anything from this company.They supposedly help the elderly but they are a scam operation. I give them an X- for a grade. Very unreliable and charged me *****. read more

I love their estate sales and wish they'd do more! One of my favorite estate sales finds came from one of their sales.

Managed Moves dazzles and delivers! Without question they are experts as moving seniors, but what truly sets them apart is the quality of their service and the congenial nature of their employees -- whether it is someone working in the office coordinating moves or a person packing up belongs before the move or the individual doing the lifting and carrying on the day of the move. Personally, I have no idea how my sister and I would have survived the last 10 months without them. Since the end of October 2023, our parents have moved from a townhome to independent senior living, needed their townhome cleared out so it could go on the market, moved from independent senior living to assisted living, and had to make an internal move at their assisted living facility to separate apartments. Managed Moves has handled everyone of those situations and done so with grace, patiences, kindness, and professionalism (which is even more impressive when one realizes that the last two moves came together with less than two weeks notice each time). I genuinely feel like the core philosophy at Managed Moves is to treat every customer like family -- that is certainly the way that they have treated my sister, our parents, and me. One wonderful quirk is that, for all four instances when we have hired Managed Moves, one young man has been a member of the crew each time. When he saw me the second time we were using them, he went out of his way to say hello to me. And, at the third and fourth times, we have engaged each other in conversations that have had nothing to do with the actual move. Every member of their staff has shown me a similar level of genuine interest in us and our parents. On top of the excellent, personalized service, Managed Moves also knows the ins and outs of every senior living facility in the Portland area which allows them to be efficient and effective without disrupting the daily routines in the facility. Beyond the actual move, it is also incredible to watch the folks who come the day before the move to expertly pack everything in preparation for the move and then come the day after to unpack it all. Equally impressive is the rapid, yet thorough job Managed Moves does when handling a clean out of a senior's previous residence. Although the rates for all moving companies in Oregon are set by the state, the quality of the experiences that Managed Moves provides are where one realizes that they are providing a bargain for their customers. Even if the cost of hiring Managed Moves was double the actual prices that they charge, I would feel like I was getting the deal of a lifetime. The reality is that my sister and I will likely have to move one or both of our parents at least one or two more times, and no matter what the situation is, the one absolute given is that we will hire Managed Moves. I strong urge anyone to use them if you have the need to move someone into a senior living situation. read more

I honestly can't be more thankful to a Moving Company. Managed Moves helped us during a very stressful time when it seemed as though there was a obstacle around every corner. They came in with upbeat attitudes and filled our Mom's old home with a positive vibe and took care of business. We'll be forever grateful, thank you again!!!!! read more

Poor service. Slow with response. Felt bullied to use service. Expensive. Seems to use old folks as a revue stream.

I was asked to review their service, I am guessing they wish I just went away. Surprise, I was forced to remove my review I posted in August. So 11 months later I am back. Steve you know you did a bad job and broke the 65" tv. You know you never offered insurance, so does the State of Oregon since I notified them. read more

I have used Managed Moves twice in the last year to move a person in their 80's into and then out of an independent / assisted living facility and they were great both times! Communication with the office on pricing, process, scheduling and follow up was great and although a skeleton crew during covid - my calls and emails were answered promptly! They worked with me patiently to tailor the move with pack and unpack service and to make a last minute reschedule we had to do this time. They understand the unique nature of this type of move and it was much appreciated! The movers called ahead of arrival and arrived on time. Movers and packer were friendly and engaging with the resident who was moving and respectful, careful and efficient with the pack /move. I was able to coordinate with the packer for what would need to be unpacked at the destination. Movers and packer checked in with resident and myself after the move to make sure everything was correct before leaving. Everything went smoothly and low stress! read more

I wish all businesses were as reliable, affordable and excellent as managed movers. They have helped move my elderly mom during COVID from independent living to assisted living. We did all the coordination by phone and online and every detail was addressed. I can't say enough good things about the folks at Managed Movers!! read more

Amazing team over at Managed Moves. From the office to the packers and movers, everything was spot on! Quick to respond and easy to schedule. The walk through was great and the estimate was what we expected. Moving my father out of his house and into an assisted living apartment was weighing heavily on me, but then we found Managed Moves. All we had to do was tag things we wanted and they took care of the rest, literally. They came and packed everything up, taking special care of the artwork and glass pieces. Best part of the service is that they UNPACKED everything too! Never knew this service was available. They took pictures before packing and unpacked and put things away...plates, glassware, dog food, clothes, socks, toiletries... We've scheduled a follow up appointment where they'll come back to the house, go through stuff we want to keep, donate and get rid of. For the stuff we keep, they'll deliver wherever we want. Many thanks to everyone at Managed Moves! read more

As a sales advisor at a gracious and upscale retirement community I can only afford to work with the absolute best in the industry. When it comes to professionalism, punctuality and level of service I've had zero complaints. Trust me when I say we've referred dozens upon dozens of seniors who have had the pleasure of working with managed moves. Not only that they have HEART and CHARACTER which is just as important in this community. I would rather refer to NO moving company than hear a bad complaint - which will then reflect badly on me. However, I am never afraid to refer to managed moves as I know our new family members will be more than satisfied with the service and price. Way to go managed moves! Keep up the good work! read more

This review is late because we were waiting for our internet to be hooked up. Our moving team lead by Ulysses was wonderful and very efficient! Travis even set up our TV and Isaiah went to the trouble of making our bed for us! You couldn't find a team that worked together harder. We are very appreciative of their hard work and friendly personalities and would highly recommend them to anyone who needs great movers! This review is for Janet and Davis--our wonderful unpacking team. Both of them are excellent workers and never stopped working for 5 hours on the day of our move. It was amazing the amount of boxes that they unpacked and put away for us! At the end of the 5 hours, they hauled away all the packing materials! This is another 5-star review! Lastly, on Friday, July 16th, Janet came back and spent another 7 hour's unpacking the rest of our boxes. She wouldn't let me help other than to tell her where I wanted things put. Couldn't even get her to stop and take a break. She is an absolutely amazing worker and again she hauled all of the packing materials away before she left. Another 5-star rating! Needless to say, this amazing team came together and made this move as easy as they could! I would highly recommend each and everyone of them. Everyone of them was awesome and we couldn't have done it without them! read more

I stopped by the Managed Moves office at 7145 NE Glisan Avenue 97213 yesterday 12.05.18. to get information about their Senior Relocation / Downsizing Services. I wanted to check out their operation in person rather than just rely on their website. Their staff was very helpful and provided great suggestions to help us plan to relocate a family friend in Wilsonville from her home to assisted living. Highly Recommend to all. *****FIVE STARS***** read more

My partner and I have downsized... a terrible process! However, I cannot say enough good things about the movers at Managed Moves who helped us. We had Phillip, Sam and Tim and they were great! They were patient, careful and thorough. At the last minute I wanted to take a yard sculture and they were willing to pull it up, wrap it and bring it along. Moving is hard, but these guys made it much easier. Thanks! read more

I had read and heard a lot of good things about this mover and the people at Hearthstone recommended them so elderly mother (92) contacted them arranged for the move. What I found out just before the move was had been confused and said she would need everything moved by them and set up again but this was not true. I was able to contact Krista by phone and she graciously adjusted next day move so that we didn't have to pay extra for the packing and unpacking and were able to save a considerable amount of money. She was great to work with as were the 2 movers that took care of it. Great service and highly recommended!! Rick read more

With very short notice Managed Moves was able to arranged a move from a downtown apartment to an assisted living facility. I contacted them and within 3 days they were able to move our uncle. They were prompt and very responsive. They were able to provide an estimate based on the detailed information I provided. The glass on a framed picture was damaged and they immediately arranged to have it repaired. I was very impressed with the whole move. I was impressed with their honesty and integrity which is very important when moving valuables. Definitely recommend. read more

I highly recommend Managed Moves. I coordinated my grandmothers move into assisted living with a short turn around. They helped us with the downsize and the packing. The movers were professional, kind and efficient. I came out as the hero in my grandmother's eyes! Very helpful! I would highly recommend and will use them again in the future if I ever need help with a move. read more

My husband and I have used this company several times. First to help our cousin move then when we moved. Both moves were smooth and reasonably billed. The Estimate was good and when we found time to move small boxes our selves the price went down. The staff were on time, positive, hard working and careful with our things. It is amazing how fast young guys can move heavy things. They followed our set up plan which made the move so much easier. Later my cousin needed an other move so we called them back and they made it happen. We even had then take things away to the appropriate places. (garbage or second hand) We feel like these people are part of the family as they seem to really care. read more

We are so grateful for this company! They were absolutely fantastic moving my elderly mom into her new home. They packed and moved and even came back to help with shifting furniture once she'd been in for a day. They were so professional, kind, and really went over the top to make sure we all felt comfortable. They were very safe with masks and PPE. Thank you to Chelsie, Carol, Janet, Jordan, Marie, Merissa, Lars, Phillip, Uly, Justuce, Sam, and Carolyn. You are the best!! read more

I can't say enough about the quality of staff, the helpful suggestions, the careful attention to detail with this great team of people. We used them to significantly downsize our long term home.Yes, we're seniors, but not incapable. They worked on time, within estimate, and with a clear respect for our needs as we moved. Kudos to them. read more

The Springs at Tanasbourne recommended them to move us. They gave us a quote but after the move they added hidden costs totally almost $200 more! I questioned them but the movers said we'd have to talk to Steve or office to find out why we weren't told. We couldn't get ahold of either. Therefore, had to pay & find out later. After speaking to office person she said was "sorry you weren't told". I was not happy with that answer but she didn't seem to care. They got our money so they didn't care. Also the movers dropped or didn't wrap our desk drawers & didn't tell us. We found the mess & items missing. I mentioned it but office person didn't care. Our headboard had black marks on it, also some of our clothes were wrapped in blankets & not in the wardrobe boxes we paid for. We've moved 5 times in the last 12 years & never had such a bad experience. read more

My 90+ year old parents used Managed Moves for their move within a senior residence. Even though this was a small move, it was important that the company appreciate the stress that this put on my folks. Billy came out for the estimate. He was wonderfully warm, thorough in making sure he understood everything that needed to be moved, and very sensitive to price concerns. He was very straightforward about the time he thought it would take and sincere in communicating that he would do everything to make the move quickly and professionally. On moving day, we were alerted when the movers were on their way. Billy and one other mover came right on time. They were fast, pleasant, well organized and careful. I could not have asked for a better move. And, they were able to complete the move well within the estimate given. I would definitely recommend this company! read more

Edit: Had an unpleasant shopping experience, but the owner reached out to me and we spoke over the phone. I've since been to an Managed Moves estate sale, and it was fine. read more

Horrible. Avoid at all costs. Wish I had read earlier reviews before choosing them. This was an in-building move inside a senior facility (near the Lloyd Center). Due to COVID restrictions, neither resident nor family could not be on-site. It took them 2 full weeks to admit damaging an expensive piece of art that had "disappeared." Movers failed to timely communicate important information to facility staff and family, causing much hardship for the resident and facility staff (extra work and costs post-move). They promised much more than they delivered. Very high bill. Very unprofessional. Do not hire. read more

Carver, Dokota, and Perry did an excellent job moving my 95 year old Aunt's things from her home to Terwilliger Plaza. They were very respectful and made our move easier than we could've imagined! read more

Managed Moves provides a service that no other estate clean-up company does -- they take hazardous waste! The other companies I called for estimates said they "don't even touch" hazardous waste materials, such as old paint cans and chemicals. During our move from our house to a much smaller rental house, we had an accumulation of hazardous waste and didn't have the time -- and the vehicle -- to deal with this ugly part of moving. Johnny and Chris separated the waste from the recycling and took all of it away in an efficient and timely manner. I highly recommend Managed Moves -- not only for this particular service, which, in my opinion, is invaluable -- but definitely for moving your parent(s), which Managed Moves has helped me with -- twice. They are amazing. read more

We were disappointed with our experience in moving my parents to memory care. They came and gave a bid (later called an estimate) and saw what would need to be done. They came in under the other bid we had gotten so we went with them. After a long day of moving, they charged twice what was "estimated". After thinking about it I wrote and asked if they would consider a partial refund and they never answered the email. It felt like we were being taken advantage of after a long and emotional day. Although the moving work itself was okay (although it seemed like they were missing for long periods of time), I cannot recommend. read more

Wow! Managed Moves was amazing! The independent living community my Mother recently moved into recommended MM to me based upon their outstanding reputation and first hand experience with both Managed Moves and several of their past clients. Steve was wonderful and his whole team was so professional and dependable, coordinating everything from start to finish between me and my Mom, the move and the staff at her new location so smoothly. I can't thank you all enough and I still can't believe you made Mom's bed for her before you left!!! read more

Managed Moves recently helped us move my father between Calaroga Terrace and Courtyard at Mt. Tabor assisted living. They were highly recommended by the staff at Mt. Tabor and were a pleasure to work with. We contracted them to pack my father's belongings and move him into his new apartment. My father was visibly apprehensive about the move and all of the employees who assisted us were gracious with their time and energy, making him feel comfortable and listened to. They were responsive and timely throughout and all of his things made it without anything being broken or mishandled. Lastly, they came in well under their estimate, which was a delightful surprise. read more

Because of medical problems I have had to move 5 times in less than a year. Each time I used Manage Moves to pack, move and unpack us. They have proven each time that they are professional, organized and competent. The movers know how to interact with the senior community and make a very stressful situation easier. They are kind, clean and have fantastic attitudes. Thank you Billy, Steve, Laura and Perry for the great work you do. read more

I've used Managed Moves under a different name. I called them to make my second move. They did an amazing job with our move. Everything was packed and wrapped. Peter, Chris, Randy and Claire did the perfect move, packing and unpacking. First move was a house to a condo. This move was a condo to a house. I highly recommend all of them for ur next move!!! read more

This is the fifth time we've used Managed Moves to relocate our mom's belongings and have had great results each time which is why we've used them every time. The staff is friendly, courteous, accommodating and professional. The move team was efficient and fast. We had items to move to two different locations that they were able to complete in the estimated time frame. They were also able to accommodate a last minute request to deliver items to a local thrift store. We definitely recommend them and will use them again if we have future moves to make. read more

Managed Moves helped move my friend's mother to an assisted living facility. She had early stage dementia so it was important that their staff was kind and understanding, and could work with her needs. They obviously have a lot of experience working with elderly people, as both the client and her family were happy with the outcome. They also held the estate sale for the client, which was very successful and well organized. They also removed everything from the house at the end - garbage, recycling, etc, which is definitely not a service everyone offers. I couldn't believe how clean the house was when they left, based on how full it was when they started! read more
