QUICK COMPARISON LIST OF THE MAIN OTHER EUGENE AREA MOVING COMPANIES
Below is a quick-comparison list of the main other Eugene moving companies, with their rates and the most helpful information about each company summarized next to each listing. These are listed in order of the their percent of five star customer reviews across Google and Yelp, mitigated by other pros & cons about each company.
If AGMC is not available on the day you need to do your move, or if one of these other Eugene moving companies is just a better fit for you than AGMC, you can book with one of these other companies instead of with AGMC. You can call your chosen company directly, or in some cases AGMC can book an appointment with them for you, whichever you prefer. In this way, this page can function as a free "open market listing and booking-help service".
WDA MOVERS
Owned by Vic & Loni, this is one of the best FULL SERVICE moving companies in Eugene. Their main drawback is that they don't have a Satisfaction Guarantee on their service. But other than that, these guys have a reputation for being skilled and reliable. They charge the standard rates in Eugene for a full service moving company, which is $156.60 per hour for two men and a truck, plus another $60.70/hr per extra man. Overtime hours cost $203.25 per hour for two men and a truck, plus $84/hr per extra man. On Sundays & Holidays they're $248.05 per hour for two men and a truck. plus $106.50/hr per extra man. These rates start and end at the company's terminal, meaning their charged clock begins when they leave their warehouse, and ends when they arrive back at their warehouse after your job. Boxing supplies are an additional cost. Unless you pay more for damage-loss insurance, the above rates only come with a damage-loss coverage of sixty (60) cents per pound for the actual weight of any lost or damaged article.

Movinghelp.com is a U-Haul affiliate website that provides a listing and booking-help service. When you go to their website and type in the date you want service, their website will automatically pull off all company names that are not available on your chosen date, saving you from wasting time looking at companies that are not available anyway. There are both good and bad movers on this site, so you have to look closely at the reviews. When you book a company on this website, you can only book labor only services, so you'd also need to book, pay for, and drive a U-Haul truck yourself. All these companies have their own different labor-only rates as posted on that site.
However, I have had a number of customers tell me that the company called I-Haul on that site has cheated on their reviews by stopping customers from being able to leave a bad review after causing big problems with the customers, so I would stay away from I-Haul even though their reviews make them look good.
You can't call this open market listing service, you can only book through their website. Here's a link to this site.
MEATHEAD MOVERS
Meathead Movers is a FULL SERVICE company that has a Satisfaction Guarantee. Their reviews are mostly good, but their biggest drawback is that they use U of O student movers, which means those students are not long time career moving professionals trained for years in their craft. This can waste time, and increases risks of problems. They charge $156.60 per hour for two men and a truck, plus another $60.70/hr per extra man. Overtime hours cost $203.25 per hour for two men and a truck, plus $84/hr per extra man. On Sundays & Holidays they're $248.05 per hour for two men and a truck. plus $106.50/hr per extra man. These rates start and end at the company's terminal, meaning their charged clock begins when they leave their warehouse, and ends when they arrive back at their warehouse after your job. Boxing supplies are an additional cost. Unless you pay more for damage-loss insurance, the above rates only come with a damage-loss coverage of sixty (60) cents per pound for the actual weight of any lost or damaged article.

BACKSAVERS
This is a Full Service state-wide moving company with no Satisfaction Guarantee. There's such a mix of movers that this company subcontracts jobs out to that there's a very wide range of the quality of movers who might show up at your door, from OK to not so good. The team you get might be fine, but there is this wild card element. I can say this company cheated me (didn't pay me for a job) when I was just a free-lance moving helper many years back for no reason but that they thought they could get away with it. They charge $156.60 per hour for two men and a truck, plus another $60.70/hr per extra man. Overtime hours cost $203.25 per hour for two men and a truck, plus $84/hr per extra man. On Sundays & Holidays they're $248.05 per hour for two men and a truck. plus $106.50/hr per extra man. These rates start and end at the company's terminal, meaning their charged clock begins when they leave their warehouse, and ends when they arrive back at their warehouse after your job. Boxing supplies are an additional cost. Unless you pay more for damage-loss insurance, the above rates only come with a damage-loss coverage of sixty (60) cents per pound for the actual weight of any lost or damaged article. The owner Josh has a reputation among free-lance movers as being an unethical person.

Oregon Valley Coastal Movers
Owned by Grant Garoutte. This is a small LABOR ONLY company that has one of the best customer feedback histories I know of. Grant and his main helper Alex are very skilled and efficient for two-man jobs, and you'd reliably get this particular known team (except Alex is off on weekends). They are very skilled, reliable and professional. For labor only they are $55/hr per man, and they do offer a Satisfaction Guarantee.
With this company, you'd need to pay about another $70 to $100 for the whole day use of a rental truck and gas, depending on the truck size you need & the distance you're moving. They DO start their clock when they arrive at your house and stop their clock when they're done moving your last item (for local jobs), subtracting break times. Their default damage coverage, without pay anything extra for additional insurance, is that if they damage something, they guarantee to repair or replace it, up to to a max value of $2000 for the item. When you calculate these cost savings and efficiency factors, these guys are one of the most reliable, cost effective, and best ways to go.
Grant is often working on a job site and not available to answer calls, so he has asked AGMC to help book appointments for him. If you call A Great Moving Crew (at 541 636-7386) and ask for Grant's services (or Oregon Valley Costal Movers), AGMC will reliably answer your call, and can set you up with an appoint with Grant's services directly. But if you want to call Grant directly, his number is

HESPEN ENTERPRISES
Owned by Steve Hespen. This Labor Only company usually works with nearly the best truck loader and most skilled mover in the entire moving industry, named Ron, pictured here. Steve & Ron are a two man team that you'd reliably get when book this company's services. For labor only they are $55/hr per man, along with you paying about another $70 for the day use of a small rental truck & gas. They work seven days a week, same price on Saturdays & Sundays, they offer a Satisfaction Guarantee, and they start and stop their clock at your job sites. Their default damage coverage, without pay anything extra for additional insurance, is that if they damage something, they guarantee to repair or replace it, up to to a max value of $2000 for the item.

CASCADE MOVING & LOGISTICS
They have OK reviews online, but they have no Satisfaction Guarantee. When you book them online you have to pick how many hours you are reserving their services for, and how are you suppose to know how long you'd need them, and what if you guess too high or too low?
They charge $156.60 per hour for two men and a truck, plus another $60.70/hr per extra man. Overtime hours cost $203.25 per hour for two men and a truck, plus $84/hr per extra man. On Sundays & Holidays they're $248.05 per hour for two men and a truck. plus $106.50/hr per extra man.

THE REST OF THE MOVING COMPANIES THAT SERVICE EUGENE
The rest of these below listed moving companies have relatively more reported problems compared to the other above listed companies, and they have no SATISFACTION GUARANTEE, so in my opinion, should be considered only as a last resort if the above listed companies aren't available. One common complaint I've heard from customers about several of them is that at the very last minute the company needed to "cancel" leaving the customer hanging without help.
They charge $156.60 per hour for two men and a truck, plus another $60.70/hr per extra man. Overtime hours cost $203.25 per hour for two men and a truck, plus $84/hr per extra man.

This one is at the very bottom of the list on purpose. I have just heard too many bad things about this company from several different customers who used them, largely involving a misrepresentation of the end resulting price, "missing" items, and poor work. I wouldn't touch them with a ten foot pole.
But, it's your call... 561 560-7828
