Different types of moves work best with different movers. The first step in picking a moving company is deciding whether a local or national mover will work best for your needs. You'll also need to figure out if you want a full-service or self-service mover. If you are someone who hates packing boxes, you might want to hire a full-service mover that has a packing service.

Some good ways to learn about the reputation of a moving company are through online reviews and the BBB. You may also want to know which movers near you meet all of Oregon's licensing requirements for movers.
