Why We’re Different from Typical “Student Movers”
You might find other student-moving services or cheaper labor-only helpers. A few things people often complain about: unexpected fees, hidden charges, slow or unprofessional crews, damages to belongings, or no real insurance/coverage if something goes wrong.
Here’s how Moving Fellows tries to be better:
- We provide clear, upfront written estimates so you know the cost before we move a thing.
- We use proper moving equipment and materials — moving blankets, furniture pads, boxes, straps — to protect your stuff.
- We offer background-checked crew and operate as a licensed & insured moving company (Oregon compliant), so you have real protection.
- We offer flexible services: full-service move, packing only, labor-only, storage, short-term storage — whatever fits your needs.
- We try to be on time, respectful, and professional. We treat your belongings like our own.

What to Know Before You Book — Tips From Us
- Give us as much detail as you can: number of boxes, furniture size, stairs, address specifics. That helps avoid surprises.
- Pack fragile items separately and label them clearly. If possible, do some of the light packing yourself — it saves time and money.
- If you have a tight schedule (class times, lease deadlines), tell us early. We’ll do our best to accommodate.
- When signing any agreement: make sure item list and pricing are clearly written out. Avoid blank estimates or vague quotes.
- Always check reviews and ask for credentials: license, insurance, moving crew background check.

F.A.Qs
Frequently Asked Questions
How much will it cost to move from a small dorm or one-bedroom apartment in Clackamas?
Cost depends on volume of stuff, number of movers, distance, drive time, packing needs. For a small dorm or one-bedroom apartment — and if you do some packing yourself — many students pay less compared to full-service moves. We provide a clear, written estimate based on your needs before you book.
Do you charge extra for stairs, tight hallways, or long carries?
If your dorm or apartment has stairs, narrow hallways, or a long walk from door to truck — yes, there may be a small additional fee. We’ll let you know in the estimate. We recommend telling us about stairs or tight spaces upfront so we can give you accurate pricing.
Can you provide storage if I’m going home for summer and don’t need all my stuff in the dorm?
Yes. We offer short-term storage or seasonal storage solutions for students. We can pick up your stuff, store it securely, and deliver it when you return.
What kind of protection do you offer if items get damaged or lost?
We are a licensed and insured moving company in Oregon. We use moving blankets, padding, tie-downs, and proper packing materials to reduce risk. If damage happens due to our error, we aim to help with resolution.
Do you offer short-term storage — say over summer break?
Yes. If you need to store items between semesters, we can arrange short-term or seasonal storage so you don’t have to carry everything back and forth.
How far in advance should I book? What if I need a move at the last minute?
Booking early helps guarantee availability. But we also try to help with last-minute or same-day moves when possible — especially during summer break or start of school year. Just contact us and we’ll see if we can fit you in.
Do you serve the areas around Clackamas Community College and other apartments near Clackamas Town Center, Happy Valley, Sunnyside, or Johnson Creek?
Yes. We serve Clackamas and surrounding neighborhoods including Clackamas Community College area, Clackamas Town Center, Happy Valley, Sunnyside, Harmony Point, Johnson Creek, Southeast 82nd corridor, and nearby apartment zones.
