Packing Services

Here's how DIY packing usually goes: You buy boxes and run out of tape. You buy packing supplies, and run out of packing peanuts. You buy tape, and you run out of boxes. See where we're going with this?

Our teams will show up with all the supplies you need to keep your items safe, and they'll wrap it all up so you don't have to.

FAQ

What are Access Fees?

Every move is different, and if your move involves several flights of stairs, elevators, or extra long hallways or driveways, expect to pay a little extra for the obstacle course.

When you're entering your moving information, make sure you provide accurate details about the layout of your origin and destination. Otherwise, you may end up with some surprise fees.

What is a Moving Shuttle?

When you move to a more built-up or urban area, chances are they won't let you park an entire semi truck in front of your apartment.

Your movers will have to park the main truck at a staging area, and use a smaller box truck or van to transport your stuff to (and from) the trailer.

This is called a moving shuttle, and the inconvenience comes at a price. Blame your city council.

How Should I Transport my Car or Truck?

iMoving offers a wide range of auto transporters to get your dream garage from point A to point B. You can only drive one car at a time, and you probably don't want to shove a bunch of moving boxes into your Lambo, anyways.

Fortunately, our auto transporters have you covered - and if you book a covered trailer, they'll have your car covered too.

How Much Will a South Carolina Move Cost Me?

A South Carolina move can cost you anywhere from $232 to $9230 and beyond. It all comes down to how much you’re moving, and how far you’re traveling.

Keep in mind, local movers charge per mover, per hour (with about 2 movers per room), and long distance movers charge by weight (or volume) and miles.

How Much Should I Tip My Movers?

We recommend tipping between 15% and 20% of the total cost of the move, to be divided up between your entire moving team. Don't forget the driver, either! In the moving industry, tipping is usually accepted and expected.

While there are some rare companies that don't accept a gratuity, it's a good idea to have your wallet at the ready just in case.
