I cannot speak more highly of O'Neil transfer and Storage! A team of 6 men moved my entire 6,000sf multi-level home into 2 storage units over a 2.5... day period as well as packed a significant number of my most valuable personal items and did a fantastic job. They also moved some incredibly heavy items which was incredibly appreciated. They were professional, courteous, on time, careful with delicate and valuable items and expeditious. Their accounting and administration department handled my multiple coordination calls and my payments smoothly without any issues or concerns. Their team was clean, trustworthy and got the job done exactly as requested and the final cost came UNDER what they quoted me (after I threw in a bunch of last minute extra additions of items that they were able to supply me for my additional long-term storage needs). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! Thank you O'Neil transfer and Storage!read more

Luis, Nelson, and Nestor did a great job helping me pack up my 1b1b apartment for my move from OR to TX. They took extra care wrapping fragile items... and also created a detailed inventory list for all boxes. My employer covered the shipping fee, so I can’t speak to pricing, but the pickup experience were great. I’m still waiting for my belongings to arrive in TX, but so far I’ve been impressed and grateful for their help.read more

I am glad to share my fantastic experience with O'Neill. Their service exceeded all expectations, making our move not only efficient but also... remarkably smooth and stress-free. From the outset, the team demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise. They arrived promptly, handled our belongings with the utmost care, and executed the packing and moving process seamlessly. Every item was transported safely, thanks to their meticulous attention to detail and careful handling, despite having to walk up and down 5 flights of stairs repeatedly. What truly set O'Neill apart was their extraordinary commitment to ensuring that our new home was perfectly set up. Unlike many movers, they didn’t just unload the boxes and leave; they actively assisted in placing and organizing our furniture, boxes, and belongings according to our preferences. Their help was incredibly valuable. I recommend O'Neill to anyone in need of a moving service. Their exceptional care, professionalism, and the extra effort truly made all the difference.read more

We recently had a very rushed complete move out of our home when the sale closed very quickly. O'Neill Transfer and Storage stepped in, and in one... day, had the entire house packed up and moved over 100 miles away into a storage unit at our new location! They were very careful with our things, and packed and padded each box carefully. The crew was extremely courteous and polite, and were always willing to work around us as we hustled to get moved out by the 5 pm deadline. They drove the whole truck load to the coast and neatly stacked everything in our storage unit for us. Each box was labeled with the room that the items came out of, so now all we have to do is look through the boxes to find the items we need.read more

They were careful with every item they packed. The main company had failed to give them a complete picture of the size of the job, but they made it work and ensured everything was packed professionally and without fuss.

My mother-in-law‘s house sold in one day. Unfortunately, we were unable to find a long-distance mover with availability before her closing date. We... found one company who had a day available a month after closing, which we were lucky to get, but no availability to pick up her belongings and put them in storage. That left us in the difficult position of having to find a carrier who would be willing to pick up her furniture and hold it in storage for a month. We were very fortunate to find O’Neills. Not only were we able to snag the only day they had availability before the closing date, but the entire experience was positive. Geana and Betsy were very helpful, responding quickly to any of our questions or requests and were great at keeping us informed. The moving crew was very pleasant, careful with my mother-in-law‘s furniture and boxes and had the truck loaded in half the estimated time. All the furniture was carefully padded and we were given use of the pads at no additional cost with the only proviso that all of padding had to be returned at the time of the transfer to the second carrier. The furniture and boxes were in good condition and the transfer to our distance carrier was seamless. I highly recommend O’Neills and want to thank them for their help.read more

The guys were friendly, professional, and were in and out of my house in probably 10 minutes. The only reason I gave this company 4/5 stars is... because I was pretty disappointed to see neither of the guys wearing masks. I understand it’s a choice, however, we are in the middle of a global pandemic and you’re entering my house... of course I completely sanitized everything after they left. But come on, really? Their job is to go in and out of people’s homes. The least they could do is mask up. I’m surprised and again, disappointed that O’Neill doesn’t require them to wear them. Anyway, overall good service.read more

O’Neil delivered a mattress we ordered from Costco. Their office called and scheduled a delivery window between 8:30-10:30 and the truck was at our... home right at 8:30 on the agreed upon delivery day. The delivery men had the mattress off the truck and inside our garage within 5 minutes. They would have brought the mattress inside and set it up but with the virus issues I preferred to do it myself. It wasn’t the 100% contactless experience I would have preferred because I had to sign the delivery receipt so they could work on that aspect of the process. Perhaps a phone call or email where I could confirm the delivery without touching anything. All in all a 100% good delivery experience with just slight room for improvement.read more

Update, written 2 MAR 2020My items were delivered last week. I can say I have no problem with this moving company. They communicated with me... promptly and my items were in the best condition I have ever had with movers. I plan on moving again, and I will think of this company first is all I have to say.Written 11 JUL 2019Where do I begin? Well this is a good moving company, most of my communication was done via email. I managed to get an estimator to come out and look at my apartment. I was glad because basing the cost of a move purely on square footage is bad. After the estimator came out I kept in contact and all my questions and concerns were addressed.The day I was going to have my items packed and stored the three gentlemen showed up on time and were very diligent. Very professional and addressed my concerned. I am experienced with other movers and somethings I knew to look out for.I will update this review when I move into a new place and have them deliver my items. As for now they left a great impression.read more

We cannot say enough good things about O’Neill Transfer and Storage Co Inc. of Beaverton, Oregon – affiliated with National Van Lines. O’Neill’s... President (Bradley Boland Sr.) came to our rescue after we had been bilked by an online Moving Broker (don’t ever make that mistake!). Anyway, it was the day of our scheduled move through the online broker and the price suddenly jumped $2,000. We “fired” them, but then were in a desperate spot as we (family of 3) had our plane tickets to leave the next day. We called O’Neill and spoke with Brad Boland Sr. who immediately came out, gave us the price and made arrangements for the move on the spot. O’Neill is a very professional company with great client communication. Everything was packed and moved to Buffalo NY in perfect condition and right on time. They gave a fair price and more than made up for the terrible experience we had with the online moving broker. We would recommend O’Neill 100%!-Craig Voigt and Caitlin Littlefieldread more

I was relocated from OR to MN for work and it had to happen fast. I was not going to give up the OR apt. yet as I was not sure how it would all go. ... It was overwhelming trying to figure out which service to use and I was getting calls and emails with quotes from all over the country after I did an online search/inquiry.
