Industrial moving costs are subject to various factors like the size of the move, distance, and additional services.

Having the right licensing and insurance is crucial for any industrial moving company. These licenses show the company is operating within government regulations and industry standards. A USDOT license is necessary for long-distance moves, ensuring the company is federally authorized to operate across state lines. To complete local moves in Oregon, movers must obtain an ODOT license. Additionally, industrial movers must have worker’s comp and general liability insurance policies to protect all parties during the move.
You should be able to find your moving company’s licenses listed on their website. You can also look up their USDOT number via the Federal Movers Database. The state of Oregon also offers an ODOT license number lookup on Oregon’s Household Goods Moving page. As an interstate van line agent, moving companies can operate under their van line’s USDOT number for long-distance moves. In that case, the moving company will not appear in the Federal Movers Database; only their van line will appear in the search.
We are fully licensed and insured at O’Neill Transfer and Storage, adhering to the highest industry standards. As an Interstate Agent of Wheaton World Wide Van Lines, we operate under their USDOT license number 70719. Our ODOT license number is 251555, and we also carry a motor carrier license, MC 87113.
In addition, we carry worker’s comp and general liability insurance policies to comply with industry standards. When you choose to work with O’Neill, you are working with a qualified company that is committed to the safety and security of your move.

A phased approach and detailed planning for contingencies are often recommended to minimize business downtime during a move. Ensuring clear mapping and documentation of workspace arrangements are also key strategies for reducing interruptions. Some industrial moving companies also offer moving times on weekday nights and weekends to minimize downtime. However, not all professional movers offer this, so it is essential to confirm your moving company offers flexible scheduling if your business requires it.
At O’Neill Transfer and Storage, we employ many strategies besides offering flexible weekend and weekday night scheduling, including using a phased approach. This involves moving parts of the business in stages, allowing some operations to continue while others are in transit. Additionally, we work with businesses to create a clear map of the space to streamline the unloading process. We understand the importance of keeping your business running smoothly, so we work diligently to do so during your industrial move.
Professional moving companies typically employ a range of specialized methods for dismantling and reassembling equipment and machinery. This process begins with thoroughly assessing the equipment’s complexity and the requirements for safe dismantling. Movers often utilize custom tools and techniques tailored to handle specific types of machinery, ensuring that each piece is disassembled in a way that prevents damage and facilitates easier reassembly.
Many moving companies document the disassembly process, with each component labeled and inventoried, to streamline the reassembly process at the new location. Additionally, moving companies usually have teams of skilled technicians experienced in mechanical and electrical systems to handle the reassembly. This ensures that the machinery is put back together correctly and also functional and ready for operation.
At O’Neill Transfer and Storage, we understand the importance of your machinery and equipment in your business operations. We employ skilled technicians specializing in dismantling and reassembling various industrial machinery types. Our team ensures that everything from the initial assessment to the final commissioning is handled precisely and carefully.
Effective communication is essential for a smooth industrial move. It involves regular updates on the move’s progress, immediate reporting of any issues, and ensuring all parties are informed.
