Bay Area to South Carolina movers

South Carolina is an interstate move from the Bay Area, so it is planned and priced under federal rules rather than the California hourly tariff. We deliver Bay Area households to Charleston, Columbia, Greenville and Myrtle Beach and to towns across the state.

In Charleston, right of way permits add $10.00 per day for permits involving dumpsters or moving vehicles and $18.00 per day for each metered space obstructed. Source: City of Charleston: Construction Permit and Right-of-Way Obstruction Fees (effective August 16, 2021).

In Columbia, commercial trucks may pull into metered curb spaces without charge only while actually loading and unloading; staying longer is a violation. Source: City of Columbia Ordinance 2024-039, Chapter 12 Article II, Sec. 12-81 Exemptions.

Check the street and building rules at the new address before move day; anything we know ahead goes on the plan.

Moving to South Carolina is priced the interstate way, by weight. You get a rate per pound and a minimum space reservation in writing before you book. Weight above the reservation costs the same rate. This estimate is non-binding; your invoice reflects what the loaded shipment really weighs.

Prefer one fixed number? Ask for a flat fee based on reserving an entire truck. The fee is binding and includes guaranteed pickup and delivery. The same team loads and unloads, and there is no weight limit.

You see the proof: the net weight and the scale ticket come to you after pickup. Decide what stays behind before the free on-site inspection, so the estimate covers only what is going.

On a weight-based move, a few services can be charged at delivery when the South Carolina home needs them: stairs beyond the first flight, a long carry over 100 feet, an elevator, or a shuttle when the truck cannot reach the door. A reserved-truck flat fee has none of these.

You pay 50% at pickup and 50% at delivery. Payment: Cash, Money Order, Visa, or Mastercard (3% transaction fee applies for card payments). A card payment for the delivery half is due one day before the truck arrives. Discounts: 7% for returning customers and agent referrals, 5% for friend referrals.
