Atlanta Local Movers: Hourly, Transparent & Stress-Free
As experienced Atlanta local movers, Sunrise Moving & Storage charges by the hour for moves within the metro area, giving you transparent, predictable pricing with no hidden fees. Our billing begins when our crew arrives at your origin location and covers the entire move: loading, transit, and unloading at your new home or office.
Per Georgia moving regulations, a minimum of two hours of labor applies on weekdays and three hours on weekends and holidays. A flat travel time fee is also applied to each local move to cover the crew’s travel to and from your location — a standard, straightforward charge with no surprises.
Our local moving services include:
- Full-service residential moving for homes, apartments, condos, and townhomes
- Furniture disassembly and reassembly at no additional charge
- Pad wrapping and protection of all large furniture items
- Careful placement and setup of furniture in your new space
- Specialty item moving, including pianos and pool tables
- Loading and unloading services if you’ve rented your own truck
- Crating services for antiques, artwork, and fragile valuables
Our crews are experienced in moving all types of residences, from studio apartments to large multi-story homes, as well as commercial offices, retail spaces, and storage units. No job is too big or too small.
Atlanta Intrastate Movers: Long-Distance Moves Within Georgia
Moving to Savannah, Macon, Augusta, or another Georgia city more than 50 miles away? You need Atlanta intrastate movers who know the state and can handle the logistics. Sunrise Moving & Storage handles every in-state long-distance relocation with the same professionalism and care as a local move, just with a different pricing structure.
For intrastate moves over 50 miles, your rate is determined by two factors: the weight of your belongings and the distance between your origin and destination addresses. This weight-and-distance pricing model ensures you’re only paying for what you actually need to move, giving you better cost predictability for longer hauls.
Our intrastate moving process mirrors our local service: professional crews, protective padding and wrapping, furniture disassembly and reassembly, and careful placement at your new location. For moves that cross state lines, visit our Long Distance Moving page to learn about our nationwide moving options as an interstate agent for Bekins Van Lines.
Professional Packing Services: Let Us Handle the Hard Part
Packing is often the most time-consuming and stressful part of any move. On average, most homeowners spend several weeks boxing up their belongings, and even then, improper packing is one of the leading causes of damaged items during a move. Don’t go it alone.
Sunrise Moving & Storage offers professional packing services designed to save you time, protect your valuables, and give you peace of mind. Our trained packers use high-quality materials and proven techniques to wrap, box, and secure everything from everyday kitchenware to fragile heirlooms and large electronics.
Our packing services include:
- Full-home packing: We pack every room so you don’t have to
- Partial packing: We handle the items you’d rather not tackle
- Custom crating for antiques, artwork, and high-value items
- Specialty wrapping for mirrors, TVs, and fragile furniture
- Unpacking services at your destination upon request
When our team packs your belongings, they arrive at your new home ready to unpack: clearly labeled, securely packed, and exactly where you need them. It’s a faster, safer, and far less exhausting way to move.
Short-Term & Long-Term Storage Solutions
Sometimes the timing of a move doesn’t perfectly align, and your new home might not be ready or you may be in between spaces. Sunrise Moving & Storage offers flexible storage options to keep your belongings safe and accessible for as long as you need.
Our climate-controlled storage facility in Tucker, GA provides secure, clean, and organized storage for residential and commercial clients alike.

What is local moving vs intrastate moving?
Local moving refers to relocations within the same city or nearby area, often charged by hourly labor and travel time. Intrastate moving means moving within the same state but over longer distances (for Sunrise it’s moves over 50 miles in Georgia). For intrastate moves, rates are typically based on the weight of your belongings and the distance traveled.
How does Sunrise Moving & Storage price intrastate moves?
Intrastate move pricing is determined by the weight of your items and the distance between your old and new addresses. This differs from local hourly pricing and gives a more accurate cost for longer in-state moves.
Do professionals pack my belongings?
Yes. Sunrise offers professional packing services to save you time and ensure fragile, valuable or bulky items are packed securely. This helps make your move smoother and reduces risk of damage.
What services are included in a full-service move?
Typical full-service moves include packing, loading, transportation, unloading, furniture assembly/disassembly, and placement in your new home. Sunrise also handles specialty items like pianos and pool tables.
Do I pay for travel time?
For local moves, a flat travel time fee is applied to cover the time it takes for the crew and truck to reach you and return. This is separate from labor time spent loading and unloading.
What kinds of items can movers handle?
Movers will handle most household and business items, including furniture, appliances, boxes, office equipment, and specialty items like pianos. However, certain items (like hazardous materials or unhooked appliances) may not be transported unless properly prepared.
How far ahead should I schedule my move?
It’s best to schedule as early as possible (ideally several weeks before your desired move date) to ensure availability, get accurate pricing, and allow time for planning and packing.
Can Sunrise help with storage if I need it?
Yes. Sunrise offers short-term and long-term storage solutions if you need space to store belongings before, during, or after your move.
How do I get a quote or estimate?
You can contact Sunrise Moving & Storage to request a free quote. We will assess your moving needs and provide options to fit your schedule and budget. Quotes help you plan and compare costs before committing.
What differentiates professional movers from DIY moving?
Professional movers bring experience, tools, packing materials, and a trained crew to efficiently handle your move and protect your belongings. This reduces physical strain, saves time, and often results in fewer damages compared to DIY moves.
