Reviewing: Mimi's Moving and Storage Services
I desperately needed movers to bring furniture from Woodstock, NY to Watertown, MA after the original company I selected dropped out less than a week before the move date, and I am so lucky that Mimi's was available and willing to pick up the contract. They were friendly, professional, and very comfortable handling my furniture, which included a glass top table, a large old leather couch, and a very heavy double dresser. Everything made it up the stairs into my new place without a scratch. It couldn't have been a smoother move. Highly recommend.

The time changed and it took five hours later. The truck already had someone else’s stuff on it so they had to make three trips which made it even longer. Other than that the three people that moved me were phenomenal.

A couple of issues. A day before the move, I called to add a stop. The movers were not informed of this. Therefore they did not completely understand me when I separated the items into two categories: “Inn”: the first stop was to be the inn where I moved to. They seemed to understand me, but a few minutes after arriving at the Inn, I saw them drive right by it. I was able to contact them by phone. They told me that their instructions were to do one stop only (the storage units). They had not received the change to two stops. So they were talking about refusing to come back to the Inn and unloading everything at the storage unit. Why did they not understand me when I talked about two stops for several hours as they were packing? Was it their limited grasp of English? Anyway, Peter called them and clarified that it was to stops. So they did come to the inn (time spent on resolving this misunderstanding: about 45 minutes. Please do not charge me for that time. They dropped some of the items marked “Inn” at storage. And dropped some of the things marked “Storage” at the Inn. So it’s taking me several hours to correct the known errors and to do quality control on the rest. Thinking of all this and comparing it to experiences with movers in the past, I now doubt that I would hire this company again.

IMoving communication is terrible. Texts, emails go unanswered. Carrier was switched at last minute with no notification. Could never get the same person to talk to. Rita was bordering on rude, never returned my call. Despite my telling you what size truck I needed, the wrong size was sent. I would never recommend iMoving.

Communication snafus happen but it still happened. However, all the parts of the machine NEED BETTER COMMUNICATION skills. It was very frustrating to NOT hear the same thing from every side and I would hesitate - but not completely reject telling someone about your service

iMoving made mistakes on the scheduling and then kept making the same mistakes repeatedly, even with the same person. I am unlikely to use iMoving again. The mover himself was phenomenal.

The 2 movers were good they were able to move our items safely. This was a big concern of mine. The only issue was that they were late because they went to the wrong address, in another state.

The movers arrived on time and did not damage any furniture. The mover placed an unexpected chair in the lot and needs to go back to the self storage unit to retrieve it.

Portland Moving Services Are a Click Away
Every move is different. Whether it’s a home, office, or just a few items of heavy furniture, iMoving provides a whole menu of must-have services for moving in and out of Portland:
Long Distance Moving
When you shop for long distance moving companies in Portland, you've got two options. One, you can visit every single website, fill out every single contact form, and collect every single quote from every mover on your radar. Or, you can just use iMoving.
At iMoving, we made it easier than ever to shop for movers in Portland and beyond. All you have to do is enter your move info once, and we'll pull quotes from companies that can match your needs (and provide awesome service while they're at it). No house calls or phone calls required.
Local Moving
You're only moving local, but that doesn't mean you should pick the first guys that show up on Google. You deserve a curated list of the best of the best, and if you want to find the best local mover in Portland, iMoving can help.
We hold our local movers up to the same strict standards as our cross country moving teams. That means we check their safety records and customer feedback, and that means we even go undercover and pretend we're customers to make sure we're getting the same square deal as everyone else.
Packing Services
Packing is a time-consuming and difficult job, even if you've done it a million times before. You deserve a VIP treatment, especially if that VIP treatment won't break the bank in the first place. That's why iMoving offers professional packing in Portland.
When you book packing services with us, we'll send a team with all the high-quality supplies you need to wrap, pack, and load up all of your belongings. And what's more, they'll know how to keep it safe and secure from start to finish. Packing is tough, so use iMoving and let the pros handle it.
Storage Services
If you need some extra flexibility before, during, and after your move, storage is the way to go. That's why iMoving offers can connect you with the best storage providers in Portland, and that's why we made it super easy to book a unit of any size.
When it comes to storage, it's about more than just a few more square feet. It's about giving yourself more time to get moved in, and making sure all your extra belongings are looked after until the time's right to unbox everything else. Treat yourself to a little extra wiggle room, and choose storage you can trust.
Commercial Moving
If you're running a business, you know that downtime is wasted time. You've got to focus on your day-to-day, and a big move is going to throw a major wrench into your plans. That's why iMoving makes it easy to find the best commercial moving companies in Portland. They'll keep the wheels turning, so you can focus on what matters most.
Our commercial movers are specialized teams that can adapt to handle any kind of company. Whether it's fragile IT gear or a warehouse full of inventory, iMoving can make sure it gets relocated on-time and with minimal fuss.
We also have movers in:
FAQ
Movers need to have an official Department of Transportation (DOT) number, which you should be able to find on their website.
If a moving company handles long distance moves that cross state lines, they'll also need a Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) number.
Don't forget to check reviews and look for any insurance info they may feature on their website.
Some movers provide storage units, but not all of them. It’s always a good idea to shop around for a moving company that can provide all the services you’ll need.
Fortunately, iMoving’s marketplace lets you see what’s on the menu with each mover, including secure storage options.
In the moving industry, there are three types of estimates: binding, non-binding, and non-binding, not-too-exceed. When you get a binding estimate, it means you’re getting a flat rate.
The amount on your quote is the amount you’ll pay. Binding estimates are a good sign you’re dealing with a reputable mover.
Non-binding estimates can be adjusted before, during and after a move, but non-binding, not-to-exceed estimates can only be adjusted downwards from your initial price.
Moving containers are a great middle ground between a DIY job and hiring full-service movers. A moving container company will drop off the container at your place, and you can fill it up on your own schedule.
When it's ready to go, just contact the container company and they'll pick it up and transport it for you. It's like having a portable storage unit that gets delivered to your door.
All movers are legally required to offer a minimum level of insurance coverage. Unfortunately, this amounts to about $0.60 per pound of items lost, damaged, or destroyed.
Did your 4 pound Macbook get broken in transit? You're only gonna get $2.40. Fortunately, iMoving can connect you with movers who offer full value protection. This means if something gets damaged or broken, you'll be reimbursed the actual price.
