Tigard storage needs cluster around two patterns: tech-corridor workers bridging a closing-date gap or relocation timing, and Tigard-area downsizers staging a multi-week transition. Cal’s Moving & Storage offers storage options for Tigard customers, with our facility in Corvallis and storage-in-transit available for any move we handle. Here is how it works for the Tigard and Washington County market.

Tigard sits about 9 miles southwest of downtown Portland in Washington County, with US-99W (Pacific Highway), I-5, and OR-217 all running through or alongside it. Cal’s Moving & Storage dispatches crews into Tigard regularly — the drive from our Corvallis headquarters runs about 70 miles, roughly 90 minutes outside of rush hour. The drive is part of the job; you do not pay separately for our travel time.

The Tigard-specific factors we plan around: weekday rush-hour congestion on OR-217 and Pacific Highway (we sequence loads to avoid the worst of it), retail and commercial property managers around Washington Square and Bridgeport Village that require certificates of insurance for any move-in (we provide them as a standard part of every move), and the apartment-and-condo turnover in the Tigard Triangle and Bull Mountain corridors that often runs to tighter elevator-reservation windows than single-family moves.

What Our Tigard Storage Service Includes

Storage with Cal’s includes a clean, secured indoor facility, climate-appropriate conditions for household goods, itemized inventory tracking so you know exactly what is in storage, basic released-value coverage on stored goods (with full-value protection available as an upgrade), and easy retrieval — we deliver stored items back out to your Tigard home or anywhere else when you are ready. Storage is month-to-month with no long-term contract.

Storage Options for Tigard-Area Moves

Cal’s storage facility is at our Corvallis headquarters, roughly 70 miles from Tigard via I-5. For Tigard customers this works well for two scenarios: storage-in-transit — the most common option — where we load in Tigard, store at our facility, and deliver out to your new location when you are ready, and longer-term storage for weeks or months with delivery back to Tigard or anywhere else when needed. Because Corvallis sits on I-5 between Tigard and most Oregon destinations, storage-in-transit rarely adds significant cost.

Bridging Closing-Date and Lease Gaps in Tigard

The most common Tigard storage use case: bridging a 1–4 week gap between move-out and move-in. A new home closing date moves up by a week, a lease end-date does not align with the new lease start, or a corporate relocation puts a transferee into temporary housing before permanent housing is ready. We load in Tigard, store at our Corvallis facility, then deliver to your new location on the day you can take possession. Short bridging gaps under a week are sometimes priced as a flat add-on rather than a separate monthly bill.

Tigard Areas We Serve

We move customers throughout Tigard and the surrounding Washington County area, including:

  • Downtown Tigard — the Main Street commercial district and the Tigard Civic Center area
  • Tigard Triangle — the commercial and apartment-heavy corridor between OR-217, I-5, and Pacific Highway
  • Bull Mountain — the residential hillside neighborhood west of downtown with single-family homes and views
  • Metzger — the established residential area between Tigard and Beaverton near Washington Square
  • Washington Square / Greenway — the retail-adjacent residential zones around the mall
  • Bridgeport Village area — mixed retail and residential along the southeast Tigard / Tualatin border
  • Tigard-Tualatin border, King City, Durham, and the wider Washington County metro

What to Expect on Move Day in Tigard

Storage move days look like a normal move on the front end: crew arrives at your Tigard home, walks through with you, loads the truck. The truck heads to our Corvallis facility instead of a destination home, and your belongings are unloaded into our secured storage area with itemized inventory tracking. When you are ready for delivery to your new home, we coordinate a date, load the truck again, and deliver to the new location. You get one point of contact at Cal’s from the storage day through final delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions About Moving in Tigard

How much does storage cost for a Tigard move?

Storage is billed monthly based on volume stored. A typical 2-bedroom home runs $150–$300 per month; a 3-bedroom home runs $250–$450; a 4-bedroom runs $350–$600. Short-term storage-in-transit (under one week) is sometimes priced as a flat add-on to your move rather than a separate monthly charge.

Where is Cal’s storage facility located?

Our facility is at Cal’s headquarters in Corvallis, roughly 70 miles south of Tigard via I-5. For Tigard customers it works well as storage-in-transit since Corvallis sits on the route between the Portland metro and the rest of Oregon. We deliver stored items back to Tigard or any other destination on your schedule.

Can you store items between move-out and move-in dates?

Yes — this is the most common Tigard storage scenario. We load in Tigard, store at our Corvallis facility, then deliver to your new location when you are ready. Common reasons: closing date on a new home shifts a week, corporate relocation timing, lease end-dates that don’t align with the new lease start.

Is the storage facility climate-controlled?

Our facility is indoor and maintains stable temperature and humidity conditions appropriate for household goods. It is not a precision-controlled environment for highly sensitive items (museum art, climate-sensitive instruments) — for those, we recommend a specialty climate-controlled facility, but for typical household belongings ours is well-suited.

Are my stored items insured?

Yes. Stored goods are covered by basic released-value protection at no additional charge. For higher-value items, we recommend electing full-value protection — the additional monthly cost is small and the coverage is significantly broader. We discuss valuation options as part of the storage agreement.
