Review Analysis

Customers consistently praise Cross Town Moves for their efficient, professional, and careful crews, with 80% of 115 reviews reflecting positive experiences. Friendly attitudes, prompt service, and attention to belongings make the moving process smooth for most clients. The staff's willingness to handle jobs quickly and helpfully stands out, along with their respectful treatment of property. On the flip side, some clients report damaged items, late arrivals, and estimates that fell short of actual costs. Communication and follow-through appear stronger here than with many moving companies, but inconsistent delivery timing and damage complaints place this operation around the middle of the pack for reliability. Customer input highlights trustworthy, hardworking movers, but reveals the need for more consistent scheduling, accurate quoting, and safe handling of all items.

Delayed arrival or delivery

Review Analysis

Customers consistently notice Lile Relocation Services for professional teams, careful handling of belongings, efficiency, clear communication, and staff who genuinely care. Over half of all feedback praises prompt service, attention to detail, and positive experiences, with many encouraging others to use Lile. Customers mention employees going above and beyond, transparent pricing, and efficient processes, noting moves completed on time and no damage in many cases. On the other hand, nearly 42% of input highlights serious issues. Customers report damage to items, poor communication—sometimes leading to missed timelines or last-minute changes—and delays beyond agreed delivery days. Problems such as missing belongings and unclear insurance coverage are mentioned repeatedly. Lile stands out for its professionalism compared to competitors, but significant negative feedback about damaged goods and lack of communication sets it apart from the best in the industry. Customers appreciate when staff are attentive and reliable, yet the company falls short for those who experience broken items or feel ignored. Feedback makes clear: those prioritizing professionalism and efficient handling call Lile a strong choice, but potential clients should stay alert for communication and delivery issues. 67 reviews analyzed; 56.7% positive.

FAQs

What else should you know about moving out of state?

Any moving company helping you leave Oregon must have the proper licenses and a valid U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) number. All the Ashland movers we recommend meet these requirements, but you can verify credentials yourself through the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s database.

If you're planning a move across state lines, make sure to review the FMCSA’s Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move guide.

Should I use a local company or a national company when moving from Ashland?

For a move within the same city, a local moving company in Ashland will typically be your most affordable option. But if you're planning a move out of Oregon, a national provider like Safeway Moving brings more long-distance experience.

When is the cheapest time of year to move away from Ashland?

The moving industry in Ashland tends to slow down in November and December because of the holidays and school schedules. That means you may be able to negotiate a better rate with movers and save during that time.

What are the cheapest ways to move out of Ashland?

The most affordable way to move, especially within 50 miles of Ashland, is to go the DIY route. Your cheapest bets usually include renting a moving truck like U-Haul or using a moving container company like PODS. For more budget-saving tips, check out our guide to the cheapest ways to move out of state.
