JCK Movers

I used JCK Movers this past December to help unload a shipment off of an ABF trailor in Portland OR. Everything went just as planned/​what I was quoted they stuck to, no surprises with extra charges everything was at there hourly rate which was very reasonable. My point of contact was Kris, she was very helpful and courteous. The guys that went to do the work were very fast and efficient based on the customer feedback, says they were great and would use them again no doubt! thanks Again!

Found these movers on craigslist. Setting up the move good. They answered all calls quickly etc. I was told that I would b changed for truck mileage starting at my pick up location and ending at my drop off. The two gentlemen that arrived on time were courteous and worked hard. One was in training so a lot of time was spent teaching him. I was ok with that. They however took very long to move my stuff compared to moving companies I’ve had in the past. They took much longer than previous moves and I had less stuff. When it came time to pay, I realized I paid 80 miles for mileage on truck. I moved 4 miles down the road. Tried calling company next day no answer and no message and the call was forwarded to a different #. Finally got in touch with them 4 days later. Husband acknowledged that I was over charged and he said he would come over today and refund me in cash. Then got a call from wife. she was very rude and refused to refund me. I got ripped off. Protect yourself don’t use this company.

We recently sold our house of 20 years and had exactly four days to be completely out. We used JCK Movers to facilitate the move and it’s a good thing we did. We never would have made it without them, We have a lot of antiques and antique clocks. They were extremely careful with our belongings and everything was moved without incident. I should add that our house is two story so the move included moving massive Armoire from the upstairs and then 19 steps up a hill to the parking area. They’re licensed to move in Tillamook County which is a real plus for coast residents. They were professional, enthusiastic and willing.

Do not use JCK. Very, very bad experience. Booked my move a month in advance, Jay called morning of move to CANCEL! Will not return any phone calls. Horrible

I hired JCK and they ‘delivered’. The 3 movers were professional, courteous, and followed every instruction given to them. They were able to accommodate special circumstances, and were very fairly priced. Their knowledge about moving furniture, wrapping items, and how to place them inside the U-​Haul was tremendous. They also showed up on time, as they said they were. I will defly use them again in the future should I ever move, or recommend them.

Very, very, very bad experience. I decided to ignore negative reviews on Unilocal because I’d used JCK once before to do a simple unload of a truck we’d driven cross country and thought they were fine. This time, two movers came with a truck, however the truck was the wrong size so the movers couldn’t get the job done – I have a house and an office that needed to get to storage. We couldn’t complete the house.
Additionally, the two movers were slow – one was so slow it almost seemed like some sort of joke. He set a book box right into a puddle first thing, etc etc etc. The other mover was having to stand over him and instruct him. When I got upset about the size of the truck, Crystal, one of the owners, became combative and accusatory.
They took a hundred dollars off of the move, however this was after saying they were going to just leave my stuff on the tarmac if I was so unsatisfied. Crystal finally realized – when I agreed to the tarmac plan – that she would really lose money that way and came out to the storage unit to charge me for the work done. I had no intention of screwing the two guys doing the labor, but I didn’t feel I should pay for the truck since it wasn’t the right truck, or the hourly rate for the truck service, since the screw-​up was going to mean a LOT more time – and as I said, these guys move at a glacial pace… ANYWAY – they gave me the hundred off but said the $ 420 for the move had to be in cash. Then they were super shady about the cash. Needless to say, they «couldn’t provide a receipt» like a lot of people have already said.
This business made a stressful day into a complete and total nightmare disaster. My father – who is nearing seventy – and my best friend helped me complete this move in our cars. I still feel shaken up by the whole exchange.

Please do not use JCK!
We had to cancel and had no problem still being charged for 3 of the 6 hours but 3 weeks later have yet to see the refund for the remaining 3 hours that should be refunded. Also have not been able to get a reciept for the amount charged!!!
Very unprofessional

These guys were very professional as far as the job is concerned. I only hired them to help me unload the Upack truck. Jay worked with me on the timing and was very courteous throughout the process. Two guys showed up right on time and quickly unloaded our truck in the 1 hour provided for live unloads by Upack. They were fast and careful in taking stuff up the 3 story house and offered to fix the small scratch they made when moving the big stuff through the stairs.
My only complaint is the part where I called everyday for a receipt, and was told everyday that I would get it ASAP. They have been polite on every call but I am still waiting for the receipt after 10 days. Hopefully, today will be the day
Edit: I reduced the stars I gave them because despite calling them everyday for the last 13 days, I still didn’t get a receipt.

We recently moved within Hillsboro, and I got help from JCK Movers. I made an appointment with Crystal before, and the movers came right on time. We had packed all stuff in boxes beforehand. Jason and Capono were friendly, respectful, no-​nonsense movers, who packed our stuff in the U-​Haul that I had rented. They came prepared with wraps, blankets, and stuff needed. It took us four hours to move a reasonably packed 1-​BR-​1B apartment from one place to another one 4 miles away.
This is the first time we were using movers and we did not know what to expect, or how much time it would take, so take my review in that spirit. However, none of my furnitures were damaged or anything such anyhow, they seemed capable, and overall, we were pleased with the service.

JCK movers are great! They helped me move recently within Portland and they were excellent – very professional, respectful, friendly, and fast. My new place is narrow with some low ceilings and they expressed some concern about getting my big furniture (bed, bookcases, sofas, etc.) into the unit. It was difficult but they knew what they were doing and were able to maneuver all the furniture to get where it was supposed to go.
The price was was very reasonable! They were also respectful of moving quickly and efficiently, knowing that I was paying for their time.
They were very respectful of all my stuff, made sure everything was wrapped carefully and loaded properly. They unloaded everything well and put it where we asked it to go.
And they were friendly – made moving almost pleasant.
I would recommend them to anyone (and have, already!!)
