How to Choose a Moving Company on Hilton Head
Get two or three written estimates and ask whether each is binding or by the hour; Streamline Moving and Cleaning says its quotes are binding. A mover that moves household goods within South Carolina needs a certificate from the state’s Public Service Commission, often shown as a PSC number on the truck, and a mover crossing state lines needs a USDOT number.
Island moves bring stairs: many homes and villas are raised, and condos have elevators to book. Tell the mover about stairs, long carries from the parking lot and heavy pieces before the estimate, as A Helping Hand Moving Company asks on its form.
Moving Into Sea Pines, Palmetto Dunes or Another Gated Community
The mover needs a gate pass, and some communities limit the size of trucks or the hours they can work, so call the property owners’ association before the day. Bubba’s crews say they know the island’s gated communities and plantations; All My Sons lists Harbour Town, Port Royal and Sea Pines.
Moving between the island and Daufuskie Island means a barge; Bubba’s Hilton Head Shipping and Storage customers describe furniture delivered that way. For storage between a sale and a move-in, see storage units on Hilton Head.
How Much Do Movers Cost on Hilton Head?
Local moves are usually priced by the hour for a crew and a truck, and long-distance moves by weight or volume and miles. The size of the home, stairs and elevators, a long walk from the truck, packing, and the time of year all change the price.
Ask what is included: packing materials, furniture pads, taking beds apart and putting them back together, and a minimum number of hours. For a single heavy piece or a POD to unload, A Helping Hand and Streamline offer labor-only help.
