Local moves in Portland: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Portland: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $44–$56 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $515 – $859.

| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $339 – $635 |

Hourly rates are scaled to Oregon: hand movers there earn a median $21.52 an hour against $19.35 nationally (BLS, May 2025), so the model's national $40–$50 band becomes $44–$56 per mover per hour.

Before you book Kent Moving LLC
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC316695
Kent Moving LLC can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC316695. If the written estimate names a van line or another carrier, that company is the one legally responsible for your goods, so check its number too.
- 2
Ask which truck and crew you get
Kent Moving LLC had 10 roadside inspections in 24 months and 0 vehicle out-of-service orders (0.0% against 19.0%). The record covers the company; the truck and crew on your day are what you are buying.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Kent Moving LLC driver holds a CDL, so its trucks are rated 26,000 lb or less. For a three- or four-bedroom home, ask how many trucks or trips the estimate assumes; on an hourly job a second trip is paid time.
- 4
Ask whose truck arrives
1 of the 3 power units Kent Moving LLC files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 679618, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $515 – $859
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Portland at $515 – $859 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $12,798 – $17,064. A surveyed, written estimate from Kent Moving LLC far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
