Do movers need a license for a local move in Portland?

Any business paid to move household goods between points in Oregon must hold an ODOT certificate. Ask for the certificate number and check it on ODOT's Authorized Movers List. To complain about a move within Oregon, email ODOT form 9976 to CCDHouseholdGoods@odot.oregon.gov or fax it to 503-378-2183.

What is the cheapest way to move?

Move less. Every item you sell before moving day is one less thing to pack, load and pay to carry. Price it to go, and let the price drop each day until you move.
