Moving FAQs

For local moves, 1 to 2 weeks of notice is usually enough, though month-end dates fill up fast. For long-distance moves, we recommend booking 3 to 4 weeks ahead. Short on time? Call us. We can often accommodate last-minute moves.

Weekdays in the middle of the month are usually the easiest to book and the calmest on the road. Summer, weekends, and the first and last days of the month are the busiest, so book those dates as early as you can. In summer, a morning start keeps your crew and your belongings out of the worst of the afternoon heat.

We serve Atlanta and the surrounding metro area, including Marietta, Decatur, Sandy Springs, Roswell, Alpharetta, Smyrna, Dunwoody, Kennesaw, and Lawrenceville, plus communities south of the city like Morrow, Jonesboro, and McDonough.

Every move is different, so we price each one individually.

The biggest factors are how much you are moving, how far it is going, how easy the access is at each address (stairs, elevators, long carries from the truck), and the services you add, such as packing or furniture disassembly. An accurate inventory is the best way to get an accurate price.

Long-distance moves are quoted as a flat rate based on distance, the size of your inventory, and any added services like packing. You get one clear price before we load a single box.

Tipping is never required. It is a personal choice, and many customers tip when they are happy with the crew's work. Cold water on a hot Atlanta day is always appreciated.

We do. You can have our crew pack your entire home, just the fragile items, or nothing at all. It's your choice. We also offer loading and unloading help if you've rented your own truck or container.

Yes. Boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap, and tape are all included in packing service quotes. You don't need to buy anything.

It depends on the size of your home and how much you own. Our free packing estimator gives you a box and supply count in under a minute.

Wrap each piece on its own in packing paper, stand plates on edge in a sturdy box, fill every gap so nothing can shift, and mark the box as fragile on the top and sides. Our packing tips walk through it room by room, or our crew can pack the fragile items for you.

Lightweight clothing can usually stay in sturdy dressers. We'll ask you to remove anything heavy, fragile, or valuable before moving day.

Like all licensed movers, we can't transport hazardous materials (propane, gasoline, paint, chemicals), perishable food, plants on long-distance moves, or irreplaceable items like cash and important documents. We recommend keeping those with you.

A one-bedroom apartment typically takes 3 to 5 hours; a three-bedroom home can take 6 to 9 hours depending on stairs, distance between homes, and how much is packed and ready to go.

Plan for you, or someone you trust, to be there at the start to walk the crew through the home and at the end to confirm everything is loaded or placed where you want it.

Keep medications, important documents, cash, jewelry, keys, phone chargers, and anything irreplaceable with you. Pack a small bag with what you need for the first night in your new place.
