Sherwood is named for Sherwood Forest, and the city has leaned into that identity with characteristic enthusiasm. Streets are named Maid Marian Way and Friar Tuck Drive. The annual Robin Hood Festival draws thousands of visitors each summer. The city seal carries an archer. But the deeper story of Sherwood is not the medieval theme: it is the story of a small farming community in Washington County that became one of the fastest-growing cities in Oregon in the 1990s and 2000s, drawing families south from Portland and the inner suburbs with newer homes, larger lots, and school district quality that matched or exceeded its neighbors.
The city sits along OR-99W south of Tigard and Tualatin, surrounded by the Chehalem Mountains to the south and the Tualatin Valley floor to the east. Graham Oaks Nature Park preserves a stretch of the former Chehalem Valley prairie on the city’s southern edge. The Tualatin National Wildlife Refuge is a short drive north. New subdivisions have spread across the formerly agricultural land on all sides of the original townsite, and the population has grown from a few thousand in 1990 to more than 20,000 today.
Royal Moving & Storage handles moves throughout Sherwood and the southern Washington County corridor with transparent pricing and crews who know OR-99W and the Tualatin Valley.
Sherwood local moves primarily involve the newer subdivisions that have expanded the city since the 1990s, with a smaller number of jobs in the historic core near the original townsite. OR-99W connects to Tigard and the broader metro. We give you a clear price before the job starts.
Sherwood housing is predominantly newer single-family construction, built since the mid-1990s. Wide streets, two-car garages, and modern layouts make access straightforward on most properties. The older homes near the original downtown and the few blocks around the historic commercial core have the access characteristics of earlier construction. We confirm the specific property details before moving day.
Sherwood’s commercial corridor along OR-99W and the business parks that serve the city and the surrounding communities carry the local commercial activity. We work around operating hours and minimize disruption.

Sherwood is a city of more than 20,000 residents in Washington County, Oregon, covering about 6 square miles south of Tualatin along the OR-99W corridor. OR-99W connects it north to Tigard, Beaverton, and Portland, and south toward Newberg and the Chehalem Valley. The city is entirely within Washington County and Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue provides fire service.
The rapid residential growth of the 1990s and 2000s has filled most of the available land within the city limits, and development has continued in the unincorporated areas of Washington County around the city. The newer subdivisions that ring the original townsite represent the bulk of the city’s housing stock.
Sherwood was established in 1889 when the Southern Pacific Railroad extended its line through the Tualatin Valley and created a station stop on the former Hall family land grant. The station was named Smockville at first, then renamed Sherwood by a settler who chose the name in honor of Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire, England. The city incorporated in 1893.
For most of its first century, Sherwood was a small agricultural community serving the farms and orchards of the Tualatin Valley. The population remained in the low hundreds through much of the 20th century. The city’s identity as a bedroom community for Portland workers began in the 1970s and accelerated rapidly in the 1990s as land prices in Tigard and Beaverton pushed home buyers further south.
The Robin Hood theme, embraced formally by the city in the 1980s, has since become one of the more distinctive place-branding exercises in Oregon, with the annual Robin Hood Festival, themed street names, and civic decorations that have made Sherwood recognizable to visitors from across the state.
Sherwood moves are generally among the more straightforward in the Washington County market. The newer housing stock, which dominates the city, is built on accessible streets with driveways and garages sized for contemporary use.
The main variable in most Sherwood moves is the inventory. Newer homes in the city tend to be larger, with more bedrooms, finished basements, and the full range of contemporary home furnishings. Inventory size rather than access difficulty is usually the planning focus.
OR-99W is the primary arterial, and commute traffic on the corridor affects timing for moves that require travel between Sherwood and the closer-in suburbs. The stretch through Tualatin and Tigard carries the heaviest traffic. We plan transit windows around the morning and afternoon peak hours.
For moves in the small cluster of older homes near the historic downtown and the railroad-era blocks, the characteristics shift: narrower lots, older construction, and less predictable access. We assess these individually.
Sherwood moves range from historic homes near Old Town to newer construction in master-planned neighborhoods like Woodhaven and Sherwood View. Home size and street access shape the crew needed, and we put the estimate in writing before you book. The ranges below are typical starting points for a local Sherwood move.
