Packing Services Built for Real Portland Moves
Portland homes come in all shapes and sizes. Craftsman houses. Apartments in the Pearl District. Townhomes in Sellwood. Offices downtown with tight loading areas.
Packing isn’t one-size-fits-all, and that’s where many companies fall short.
Moving Fellows is a locally operated moving and relocation services company offering specialized packing services for homes and businesses throughout Portland, Oregon. Our focus is simple: protect your belongings, stay organized, and make your move easier from the first box to the last.
You choose how much help you want. We bring the materials, the system, and the experience.

Heavy-duty packing tape

Bubble wrap
-
Packing paper
-
Stretch wrap
-
Furniture pads and moving blankets

Common Packing Mistakes People Make
People often think:
-
Any box will work
-
More tape fixes everything
-
Fragile labels are enough
In reality:
-
Weak boxes collapse
-
Overpacked boxes break
-
Poor labeling slows unpacking
We pack the way professional movers expect items to be packed. That prevents damage and saves time later.
What Packing Services We Offer?
Full-Service Packing
We pack everything, start to finish
If time is tight or packing feels overwhelming, full-service packing is usually the right move.
Our crew packs your entire home or office room by room. Furniture gets wrapped. Fragile items get extra protection. Boxes are labeled clearly so unpacking later doesn’t turn into a guessing game.
People choose full-service packing when:
-
They’re moving on a short timeline
-
They don’t want to risk damage
-
They’re relocating long distance
-
They want the least stress possible
This works especially well for larger homes in Northwest Portland, family houses in Southeast Portland, and busy professionals moving out of Downtown Portland.
Partial Packing Services
You pack some. We handle the rest.
Most people don’t actually need everything packed for them.
Partial packing is perfect if you’re fine boxing up clothes and everyday items, but want help with:
-
Kitchens
-
Fragile décor
-
Electronics
-
Artwork
-
Heavy or awkward rooms
This option saves money while still protecting the things that matter most. It’s one of the most popular packing services we offer in Portland.
Residential Packing for Homes & Apartments
Packing a home sounds simple until you’re halfway through it.
Closets take longer than expected. Kitchens are full of fragile items. Furniture needs more protection than most people realize.
Our residential packing services cover:
-
Apartments and condos
-
Single-family homes
-
Townhouses and duplexes
-
Multi-story homes with stairs
We pack using a room-by-room system so everything stays organized. That means fewer lost items and easier unpacking later.
Commercial & Office Packing in Portland
Office packing comes with different challenges.
Desks, files, electronics, shared equipment, and tight schedules all matter. We help Portland businesses pack efficiently so downtime stays minimal.
Our commercial packing services work well for:
-
Small offices
-
Medical and professional spaces
-
Retail backrooms
-
Storage preparation
Boxes are labeled by department or room so setup on the other side is faster.
Specialty Packing for Fragile & High-Value Items
This part’s tricky. And it’s where mistakes get expensive.
People often think wrapping fragile items themselves is enough. Usually, it isn’t.
We provide specialty packing services for items that need extra care, including:
-
Artwork and framed pieces
-
Antiques and collectibles
-
Flat-screen TVs and electronics
-
Glass tables and mirrors
-
Dishes and kitchenware
-
Appliances
We use the right materials and packing techniques so items stay secure during transport or storage.
Packing for Storage or Long-Distance Moves
Packing for storage is different from packing for a local move.
Items may sit for weeks or months. Boxes need to be sturdy. Protection matters more.
We pack belongings so they’re storage-ready, whether they’re going into short-term storage or part of a long-distance move out of Portland.
This is especially helpful for people relocating near PDX, downsizing, or managing staged home sales.
