I have a fifth wheel that I need moved from Donald OR to Buxton OR on 5/26/2014. Can anyone help me? Or do you know how I can find someone to do it?

  • There are a few issues here. Make sure the op has the proper paper work and is in fact the registered owner. Also ensure the trailer is completely road worthy.
    There are some legal considerations. If you are towing for hire you need to be licensed and insured accordingly. You might 'rent' the trailer for a few days if the owner's insurance allows it to get around that. If you tow another person's trailer without proper coverage and get into an accident you could have an expensive mess to deal with. Who pays for the damage?
    I answered a similar inquiry on cl, the poster got evasive then disappeared when I tried to set up a time and place. Probably just as well, I might have been facing the business end of somebody's shot gun.
  • How big? How old? How long since it was moved? If it has been moved recently and has good tires, I would do it for $100. plus mileage from home. I'm in the Portland area. Send me a PM if interested.
  • Friends used this guy for a local Portland to Vancouver move was about $100 I believe
