The Good

  • Cal’s Moving & Storage Comprehensive Moving Services
  • Residential and Commercial Storage Solutions
  • Trained and Experienced Moving Team
  • Cal’s Moving & Storage Transparent Pricing

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.

When another moving company I’d scheduled with canceled on me the day before my move, I thought I wouldn’t be able to find anyone on such short notice. Cal’s was able to be there the next day! The movers did a great job with everything, and even worked outside of their regular schedule to be able to squeeze me in. Awesome service, and I will be back next time I move.

prompt courteous service on the phone quick estimate. we’re able to accommodate our move date last minute. Listened carefully to personal needs in terms of special items and stress of moving LOL this is a move from a private home to a downsized senior living apartment and Calsmoving has a lot of experience with this kind of move. It made us feel very confident and safe working with them. This was a move for our big, heavy items with a few loose articles to pack in boxes. They gave us great estimation of how many boxes we might need for the types of things we were packing on our own to go on the truck with the heavy items competitive affordable pricing, I’ve used them twice before for the same type of moves, and they were excellent to work with, they know how to get the awkward piece of furniture in and out!

Moving sucks! Cal’s Moving & Storage made it 10/10 easy and kept all my valuables safe. Staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. It was my first time using a mover and it’s worth going with a reputable company like Cal’s Moving & Storage. Never again will I rent a u-haul box truck and have my friends ding my walls and furniture only to pay them in beer and food.

The bid was reasonable, the moving crew knew what they were doing. Everything was wrapped and handled with care. Nothing was broken or damaged in anyway. The move was into a storage facility. When I’d found a home to move into, they were called again. Excellent company to work with. If another move is in my future Cal’s Moving will be who I call.

I’ve used Cal’s Moving & Storage twice in the last few years. Excellent professional service! His team was very conscientious about packing and moving my household goods with the utmost care. I’m about to lap the planet for the 4th time, and it will be Cal’s that I call to help with picking up and storing my belongings. I highly recommend his company if you’re the move!

The price quoted was spot on and a bargain. Customer service is exceptional (thanks Morgan) and the movers were on time and treated my property as if it was theirs. Everything was moved efficiently and carefully. I can’t say enough good things about the company and its employees. And this was not my first experience with a moving company, but definitely the best.

Nathan's team worked hard at being the best, watching their time while still being careful and always polite and cheerful. They arrived on time and kept me informed about breaks and lunch time. I was impressed that they notified me of a small bit of damage to the back of one piece of furniture that could easily have been hidden or ignored. I'd certainly hire them again.

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.

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.

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!

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!
