Buyer's Guide for moving services
The state of Oregon's Procurement Services has compiled a Moving Services Buyer's guide which shows a variety of moving companies that are currently under price agreement with the state of Oregon to provide moving services for government agencies. The price agreements are mandatory contracts for all state of Oregon agencies under DAS authority;
for all other entities (namely, Oregon Cooperative Procurement Program or "ORCPP" members), the price agreements may be used at their sole discretion.
