That figure sits well above the $900 median for moves that stay inside Oregon, which is what you would expect when the truck has to cross state lines.
Price level in town. BEA price parity for 2024 puts the Eugene-Springfield metro at 101.6, with Oregon as a whole at 103.4. The US baseline is 100, so the metro sits a little above the national price level and a little under the state. That is a cost of living index, not a quote for your truck.

Where people go. The destinations named most often are Bend, OR; Albany, OR; Salem, OR. Across 20 priced reviews, the median for a move out of Eugene is $2,600. The places named most often sit inside Oregon, so many of these trips can stay under state rules. A move that leaves Oregon is interstate, and federal rules from USDOT and FMCSA apply. Haulest is not a carrier, and we do not haul the load.
When to book. Reviews cluster in Oct, Nov, May and thin out in Jul, Jun, Dec. Those dates are when the review was posted, usually a few weeks after the move, so the move itself sat a little earlier. If your dates are flexible, the quieter months are the easier ask. The peak calculator shows how season changes a quote.

What makes an Eugene move harder
31.5% of these reviews mention damage, and the mean rating is 3.87.
Access on the file. no single access problem is what the reviews support: no access problem is named often enough to call it typical. Do not assume a hard carry or an easy one from the city name alone. Before the quote, tell the mover the floor, the carry from the truck, and any rule the building sets for elevators or loading. Write those facts into the notes so the quote matches the building.
Damage and the rating. 31.5% of these reviews mention damage, and the mean rating is 3.87. Damage mentions are not the same as a claim that was paid, but they are common enough to plan for. Photograph the furniture before it goes on the truck, and read the estimate line by line. The estimate guide shows which lines are the ones that move.

What a moving crew earns around Eugene
Half of the hand movers in the Eugene-Springfield, OR area earn less than $18.71 an hour (US: $19.35); truck drivers, $28.11. An hourly quote for a crew pays two or three of them, plus the truck, fuel, insurance, and the company's margin, so the rate per mover is usually two to three times the wage. A rate near the wage itself means someone is not insured or not paid.
US Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025: 53-7062 Laborers and freight, stock, and material movers, hand (1,550 jobs in the area); 53-3032 Heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers. The occupation includes warehouse work, not only moving crews. BLS wage data
