What to plan for when moving to Georgia
Atlanta traffic and access
Delivery times in metro Atlanta depend heavily on traffic. Give us building loading-dock hours and parking details in advance.
Historic Savannah
Savannah's historic district has narrow streets and squares that limit truck access. A smaller shuttle truck may be needed.
Summer heat
Georgia summers are hot and humid. Early starts help protect furniture and keep the crew working efficiently.
How your move to Georgia works
- Quote and inventory. Call or request a quote online. A moving coordinator goes through your rooms, large furniture and boxes, because long distance price depends on the weight or volume you ship.
- Written estimate. You receive a written estimate listing every charge, your pickup date and your delivery window. Read about binding and non-binding estimates before you sign.
- Packing and loading. We pack what you choose, wrap furniture, and inventory every item on the bill of lading.
- Transport to Georgia. Your shipment travels about 800 to 900 miles. If your new home isn’t ready, it can go into storage until it is.
- Delivery. The crew unloads, places furniture in the rooms you choose, and reassembles what was taken apart.
Frequently asked questions
How far is a move from New Jersey to Georgia?
Driving distance from North Jersey is roughly 830 miles to Savannah and 880 miles to Atlanta.
Can you pack my home before the move to Georgia?
Yes. We offer full and partial packing. Add it when you request your quote so it is included in your written estimate.
How is the cost of a long distance move calculated?
Interstate moves are priced by the weight or cubic volume of your shipment and the distance, plus any extra services such as packing, storage, long carries, stairs or shuttle trucks. Your written estimate must list every charge.
How long does a long distance move take?
It depends on distance and season. Your order for service must state an agreed pickup date and a delivery window, and the mover must tell you if pickup or delivery will be late. Ask for both dates in writing before you book.
What protection do I get if something is damaged?
Interstate movers must offer two liability options. Full Value Protection makes the mover repair, replace or pay the current value of a damaged item. Released Value is free but covers only 60 cents per pound per item.
