Long Distance Moving Made Easy

Many individuals believe that the most affordable long distance moves are handled by themselves. However, they often overlook additional costs such as gas, rental fees, and potential labor expenses. In reality, this DIY approach can end up being more costly and physically demanding compared to hiring a professional moving company. After a 2,000-mile journey, the idea of unloading a truck on your own may not seem very appealing.

That’s why as your trusted Portland movers we have the LOWEST RATES!!!

Commercial Long Distance Movers

Smooth Move People has been in the moving business for three decades. In that time, we’ve met people who chose not to hire long-distance moves because they think they’ll save money by doing it all themselves.

Well, we’re here to tell ya: That’s not always the case. Long-distance moving companies, such as Smooth Move People, understand and anticipate the many hidden and not-so-hidden costs that the layperson doesn’t consider.

For example, here are just a few of the costs that long-distance moving companies in Portland, Oregon, and elsewhere know all about:

  • Fuel
  • Truck Rental Rates
  • Wear and tear on personal vehicles (tires, engine, etc.)
  • Labor costs (loading and unloading)
  • Food and lodging along the way

And that’s just off the top of our heads. And think about the size of your current location, the cubicles, desks, computers, office chairs, and everything else that’s coming with you. You have a business to run, do you want to wrap all of the monitors in the office to make sure they’re safe and secure during the move?

Long Distance Moving Costs

Relocating over a long distance entails a multitude of expenses that can accumulate rapidly, making the financial burden quite significant. Additionally, the physical and mental strain of managing a long-distance move independently is undeniably daunting and exhausting, emphasizing the considerable advantages of enlisting the services of a professional long-distance moving company.

Even if you find yourself in a position where you have the financial resources and time to spare, opting for a long-distance moving company is a prudent decision. The peace of mind that comes with knowing that every aspect of the relocation process will be expertly handled is invaluable. From packing to transportation and unloading, every detail is meticulously taken care of, alleviating a significant amount of stress and ensuring a smooth transition to your new location.

While some individuals may still harbor doubts about the benefits of hiring a long-distance moving company, it’s essential to consider the broader perspective. Our conviction lies in the fact that those who remain skeptical simply haven’t explored our competitive rates. As the most cost-effective long-distance movers in the region, we pride ourselves on offering unparalleled value, although our rates are already as low as they can possibly go due to regulations in Oregon.

Maybe some people are still not convinced that hiring a long-distance moving company is the way to go. Well, we’re convinced–convinced that those people HAVEN’T SEEN OUR RATES!!! We are the most affordable long-distance movers in the area, and that’s just because Oregon won’t let us go any lower!

What to Think About When Moving Your Business

Just like a residential move, there is a checklist of items that need to be taken care of before moving day. Follow this list of things to do in addition to loading, moving, and unloading office equipment.

  • Notify your customers, clients, and suppliers about your relocation: Failing to update your address with the post office could result in missing important bills. Similarly, neglecting to update your business address could lead to missed opportunities for potential business.
  • Update Online Information: Nothing is more frustrating as a customer than showing up to a business ready to buy and discovering the company has moved. Update your website information, online business directories, and other listings on the web.
  • Transfer your utilities: Depending on how this is handled–do you own the building or are you renting/leasing–make sure to let the utility company know you’re moving. It’s hard enough keeping the lights on in one building: Why pay for two buildings?
  • Terminate or change any leases you may have: This should have been done months ahead of the move, especially if there are clauses in the property agreement. However, make sure you have your new location ready to go beforehand. You don’t want to be stuck in a holding pattern–and lose potential business–during a move.

I have moved four times in the last six years, so I know what a bad moving experience looks like. This was not that. The team communicated well and actually listened when I told them which boxes needed extra attention. Henry in particular was really patient with me when I kept changing my mind about where things should go. I did not feel rushed or ignored at any point, which is honestly rare.

I only needed a couple of hours of help to load up a rental truck I had parked in the driveway for a long distance trip. James packed that truck so tight and organized that I actually had extra room left over for things I thought I would have to leave behind. It saved me a lot of money on a second shipment, and I am very happy with the service. Definitely recommend them!

Smooth Move People treated me like a priority anyway, and they arrived with all the tools needed to take my bed frame apart and put it back together. It saved me hours of work, and I am very pleased with how respectful the movers were throughout the process.

No issues getting the place emptied out this morning. They just got in there, did the work, and made sure the items were sitting in the correct rooms before they headed out. You can trust these guys to do a very honest job.

The team handled my packed boxes carefully and arranged them securely for the drive. I liked how they asked where certain items should go instead of guessing. The timing matched what I was told during booking.

The move was handled efficiently, and the team navigated the busy street parking without any issues. The house stayed clean because they were careful about where they stepped. I would definitely call them again for my next big move.

I've had moves in the past where things felt rushed and messy. This one was different. The crew worked steadily and didn't treat the job like a race. They handled my packed boxes properly and made sure the fragile ones were set aside. I appreciated that I didn't have to keep repeating myself about small things. Once all my personal stuff was inside the new place, I could walk through the rooms easily and was able to settle in the same day. The day went better than I expected, and I'm satisfied with how it was done.

I own a very heavy, commercial-grade treadmill and a weight rack. I couldn't move them myself. They brought specific harnesses and extra manpower just for the fitness gear. They managed the equipment carefully down two flights of stairs. It was expensive equipment, and they treated it like it was their own. Great job with the heavy lifting.

Joel Mill

The move happened on a weekday when I still had other things to deal with, so I wasn't fully available. The movers just carried on without needing me every few minutes. There was no back and forth or confusion building up. I checked in a couple of times, and they were doing a great job. I am very satisfied with the service.
