My name is Darion Chest , and I’m the owner and founder of Smoove Movers LLC located here in Portland, Oregon. Moving was just a part-time gig in college for me while pursuing a degree in business administration. I’ve always had an entrepreneurial spirit from a young age, mowing lawns and washing cars for $10-$20 a job. Along the way, I was able to gain hands-on experience and knowledge in different aspects of the moving industry such as digital marketing and sales. I later settled with another moving company after college; a brand new, single owner operation. I hoped to help build a successful small business from the ground up. I was able to work my way up to Operations Manager in just 3 years. The company was a success and still is today, though plans have changed.
