Moving from Connecticut to Oregon

Professional movers are essential for this 3,000+ mile cross-country journey to the Pacific Northwest! The northern route through the Great Lakes can be challenging, so you want experienced movers who understand both coasts.

You're staying with four seasons but completely changing the style! Trading Connecticut's snowy winters and humid summers for Oregon's mild, rainy winters and dry summers. Think constant drizzle instead of nor'easters, and coffee culture instead of prep school culture!

If you love outdoor activities, don't mind rain, and want West Coast culture, Oregon's amazing! You'll trade Connecticut's sophisticated East Coast access for Pacific coastline and mountain adventures, but potentially similar living costs in Portland.

Plan 8-10 weeks total, with professional movers taking 7-9 business days for this major cross-country transport. Weather can affect mountain routes, so spring through fall timing is much more reliable than winter moves.

The distance means comprehensive insurance is crucial, and you'll want climate-controlled transport for valuable items. Also, Oregon's rainy climate will affect your belongings differently than Connecticut's conditions, especially wood furniture.
