“My wife and our 4 children moved from Eugene, OR to Tampa, FL. The representative Luke took such good care of us. Very thorough and very helpful. We needed our entire house packed and the movers came in and took care of everything. The foreman walked around with us and explained a few things and…”

“I had 27 boxes plus several medium to large furniture goods they handled with care, even consulting me for where items should go. Crew from United Pro Movers called 25 minutes prior to arrival, thoroughly wrapped my beloved dresser as I needed and were actually easy to work with. Thanks again!”

“After trying by email, phone and text I realized that Big Cat either was a scam or closed down without even contacting its current customers.

Who makes this move
Oregon is 103.4 and Florida is 103.4.
Census counts the move both ways. ACS 2024 records 2,825 people who moved from Oregon to Florida, margin plus or minus 1,169. In the other direction, 2,742 people moved from Florida to Oregon. Those are the published headcounts for the year. The survey lists how many people moved, and the page stays with that count.
The price index is level at both ends. BEA regional price parity for 2024 sets the United States at 100. Oregon is 103.4 and Florida is 103.4. Both readings come from that release. Wage tax sits apart from the index. Oregon taxes wages. Florida does not tax wages.
What the job looks like
Our review file for this lane holds 17 reviews, and that sample is small.
The common run is a long drive. In our file the most common trip is Salem to Miami, 3,310 miles, about 59 hours of driving. That is days on the road, not a one-day hop you finish before dinner. Household goods on this lane are priced by weight and miles, so the quote follows the load you ship.
The delivery date is a window. The order for service sets that window for the job. Ask for the spread in writing when you compare prices. Our review file for this lane holds 17 reviews, and that sample is small. Prices in the file mix home sizes and distances.
Before you book
On a non-binding estimate the mover must deliver on payment of 110 percent of the estimate.
Check the license before the deposit. An interstate household move needs a mover with an active USDOT number and FMCSA household-goods authority. Confirm both before any money changes hands. Haulest is not a carrier and does not book the truck. Run the license check against the estimate you were given.
Ask which kind of estimate you have. Request a binding estimate or a not-to-exceed estimate, and read the difference in the estimate guide. On a non-binding estimate the mover must deliver on payment of 110 percent of the estimate. Keep that 110 percent rule next to any number that is not locked in.
Write down the window and the deposit. The delivery window belongs on the order for service, in writing, before pickup. Deposit terms belong on that same paperwork. Read them against the deposit guide before you transfer money. If the window or the deposit line is missing, ask for both before you book.
