We Take Great Care During Those Careful Moves

Smooth Move People takes the stress out of moving. And one of the most stressful things that people encounter when making either a local move or a long-distance move: the worry they feel about the safety of their fragile items.

Let us put your mind at ease right away: We handle every item with care, and we take special precautions to prevent any damages to your most precious and fragile items.

Fragile moving means different things to different people. Some fragile items are more obviously fragile than others. For example, crystal glassware is more fragile than the plastic soda cups you saved from all those Trail Blazers games you went to.

If It’s Important to You, It’s Important to Us

But it’s more than that.

Items that aren’t fragile per se are fragile in another way: They are beloved and cherished possessions.

These include things as different from each other as those Blazers cups are from crystal glassware. And as different as delicate picture frames are from a ragtime, standup piano that’s been passed down from generation to generation.

The point is that we treat each item we move from one place to another as if it were the most fragile possession in your home.

Smooth Move People has the know-how and the people-power. We will protect all your most fragile items from being damaged during the move. That means we work quickly and efficiently while paying close attention to each and every item we load onto our trucks.

The movers coordinated the delivery perfectly and kept everything in a secure truck until the day I could receive it. I was relieved when they arrived with everything in good condition. The long-distance move went more smoothly than my last local move.

They worked really hard and finished packing everything securely, and I could not believe how easily they managed the whole process. My delicate antiques made it here unscathed, and for that I am eternally grateful.

I relocated my entire kitchen, including glassware and a big dining table, and I was so nervous something would break. The movers took their time and wrapped everything carefully, even the things I forgot to pack properly. I watched them handle it all with such focus. I was really glad I didn't try to do it myself.

Johns Kaysen

I had some unusual furniture, like a hanging chair and a glass console table, and they wrapped each piece carefully. The crew worked steadily, remained polite, and arrived at the new location right on schedule. It was one of the few moves I’ve done that didn’t feel chaotic.

Our workplace moved last weekend, and I have never seen a group operate so efficiently. They were very careful with our gear, and we never had any downtime.
