Cal's Moving & Storage Comprehensive Moving Services

Cal’s Moving & Storage offers comprehensive moving services, including the following:

  • Local moving
  • Commercial moving
  • Long distance moving
  • Junk removal
  • Piano movers
  • Residential storage
  • Commercial storage

Whether you’re relocating within or outside of Oregon, the Cal’s Moving & Storage team is equipped to help you with your move, from packing to loading and unloading.

It’s worth highlighting the company’s junk removal services — not all moving companies offer this service. Cal’s Moving & Storage will help you declutter and clear out your space, and then the company’s team will take care of disposing items and/or junk.

Residential and Commercial Storage Solutions

Cal’s Moving & Storage offers both residential and commercial storage solutions.

Cal’s Moving & Storage residential storage rates start at $20 per month, which is significantly lower than industry average storage costs of $100 per month. The company’s residential storage services allow you to drive to your storage facility and the Cal’s Moving & Storage team will help you unload your items and move them to a secure unit. You can create your own item inventory, or the company can do so on your behalf, which will be turned into an online file that you can easily view at any time.

Cal’s Moving & Storage commercial storage services include assistance with office, warehouse, and restaurant moves, and the company is equipped to store all items for as long as you may need. It’s also worth noting that the company offers premium commercial moving services including document destruction, recycling services, and PC kits.

Trained and Experienced Moving Team

Cal’s Moving & Storage performs a background check on all employees, and all employees are trained by the company’s local leads before their first moving job. This training ensures that no matter which movers are on the job, your items will be packed, loaded, and transported with care.

Cal’s Moving & Storage Transparent Pricing

Cal’s Moving & Storage has a good reputation for providing clear and upfront quotes. The company offers an easy-to-use quote tool, which will require you to provide some personal contact information. Upon receiving this information, a Cal’s Moving & Storage representative will contact you to discuss your move and estimated costs.

In addition to transparent quotes, Cal’s Moving & Storage never has any hidden fees or expenses. Thus, whatever your moving quote is, you can rest assured that you’ll never have any additional fee/expense surprises.

Fast and efficient workers. Guys showed up on site at a storage facility right when they were expected, did a fantastic job of loading an entire house worth of stuff into two vans, transporting it across town and unloading at a house. Everything was handled safely and stacked nicely when unloaded. The estimate on number of trucks and number of workers was spot on and fit my job perfectly. Definitely recommend for all your moving needs!

I bought a gun safe thinking I would be able to figure out a way to move it into my house by myself... not even close! Called Cal's and the next day they had a crew out to unload it from my truck and skillfully moved it into my house. Their timely response and careful approach to moving the 600lb beast was greatly appreciated! Call them for your tough moving challenges... as well as your easier ones.

The team arrived on time and Jake was both professional and friendly. They loaded our belongings from our storage unit into their truck super fast and beat me to our destination. They unloaded our items into the rooms I asked and worked really hard the whole time.

From the top-down this company exemplifies professionalism and provides superior customer service. My wife and I hire them for our own personal moves, and we have referred them to multiple family members and clients, as well. In a saturated market of moving companies, it feels great to simplify the search for my friends and family by pointing them to Cal’s.

We have been working with Cal’s Moving for the past few years and they have never disappointed us. Scheduling was a breeze and the crews we have worked with are always professional and show up at time scheduled. Crew use utmost care in handling our furniture and goods during the move and always go the extra mile to make sure we are happy with their service. Highly recommend Cal’s for in house and local or long distance moves.

Friendly, efficient and careful. The 2 young men who came to my home were very helpful as I needed heavy furniture, including a motorized bed base, moved between rooms for new carpet and back again several days later. They arrived on time and handled all our belongings with care. I will definitely call them again when I need movers!

I’ve used this company twice and each time they were attentive and personable! I would use and recommend them again. I love how they create a clear expectation on pricing as hours to complete the job before they started!
