Austin and the whole Suddath team are awesome! Did a phenomenal job helping us relocate our business from a 45,000 sqft shop to a new 145,000 sqft facility. Always punctual and packed and moved quickly and efficiently during every phase of the relocation. Provided multiple levels of service, from packing and relocating industrial equipment and supplies, to moving large shipping containers and tractor trailers. Worked on weekends to limit interruptions to our business and set-up right where we needed to hit the ground running every Monday. Communication was excellent and service was unmatched! Highly recommend Suddath for all your relocation needs!

FEATURED NEWS AND INFO

Charlotte Moving FAQs

Why are so many people moving to Charlotte?

In a national study from 2023 to 2024, Charlotte ranked first as the “most moved-to big city” with many more people moving into the metro area than moving out. Reasons why include the cost of living, a strong job market, a good quality of life, and a mild climate.

The U.S. News and World Report, 2025-2026, lists Charlotte as the fifth-best place to live in the country. They call Charlotte a “charming yet sprawling Southern city” and a “pleasant urban area” with a “strong economic identity,” the country’s second-largest banking hub behind only New York City. Other reasons they list Charlotte include NBA and NFL sports teams; parks; museums; and an “exploding brewery scene.” Moreover, Charlotte is a clean city with residents taking pride in that.

If you’re looking for a Charlotte moving company to enjoy all that the city has to offer, please reach out for a free, no-obligation quote!

What is the least expensive month to move?

In general, you’ll want to avoid the peak moving season of May through September and any holiday-related or local demand peaks. Perhaps that’s why January is often listed as the most cost-effective month to move—although other months such as February, March, or April could also serve as the answer.

When you’re looking to save money on your move, declutter before getting your moving quote. Since local and long-distance moving estimates are based, in part, on the weight of your belongings, decluttering first can save you money. Toss what has no value to anyone, and sell or donate what others might want but you don’t. For another money-saving tip, look at the answer to the next FAQ: What day is cheapest to move?

What day is the cheapest to move?

Weekdays are generally more cost effective than weekend moves, so the answer would be Monday through Thursday. For more tips on saving money on your move, see the answer to the FAQ of "What is the least expensive month to move?"

How far in advance should you schedule local movers?

If you’ve got a specific move day that you need, the sooner you can book your local movers in Charlotte, the better. If you’ve got a bit of flexibility, then book about two to three months ahead of time during the peaking moving season of May through October and at least four to six weeks ahead during the non-peak season.

If you’re looking at moving companies in Charlotte, NC, Suddath makes it easy to get a quote and book a moving date. Our service team is standing by to help, and you can start by simply providing us with a few pieces of key information such as your desired moving date and number of bedrooms.

What should I do before movers come?

If you’re referring to the time before your Charlotte moving company comes to give you a quote, it’s time to declutter. When you toss what no longer has value and sell or donate what others could use that you no longer can, you reduce the weight of your belongings—which is a key factor in your relocation’s cost.

If you’ve included packing services in your moving plan and you’re talking about when your long-distance or local movers in Charlotte will arrive to box up your belongings, clearly separate what you will physically take with you on moving day. This can include your electronics, important documents, pet bowls and food, favorite toys for children, and cleaning and personal hygiene supplies. If you’re going to do some of the packing yourself, make sure the boxes are ready to go, clearly labeled for when they arrive at your new place.

Enlist the help of friends or a family member to watch over your children and pets while the packing/loading process is taking place. That way, you can put your attention where it needs to go without worrying about their safety and well-being.

When you choose Suddath as your Charlotte moving company, you’ll benefit from a single-point-of-contact move counselor who will provide guidance and answer all your questions, including about what to do to prepare for your long-distance or local movers in Charlotte.

What will packers not pack?

There are three categories of items that your Charlotte moving companies won’t pack—and you shouldn’t either. The first are hazardous materials that, by law, can’t be taken by your movers. Instead, they should be disposed of according to local regulations. Examples of these include aerosol cans, antifreeze, car batteries, fertilizer, fireworks, candles, weed killers, pool chemicals, and so forth. The second category: poisonous materials, such as windshield wiper fluids, bleach, rat poison, and so on. The third category includes most perishables such as frozen, fresh, and refrigerated foods and beverages. Unopened containers of food and canned goods may be taken in limited quantities. So, it can be a good idea to stop grocery shopping a week or so before your relocation, using up what you have and donating what you won’t use. Plants may be under agricultural rules that can prevent their transport by Charlotte moving companies.

Is it worth paying for packing when moving?

Many people find packing to be one of the most daunting parts of relocating. If you’re one of them, then it’s likely that you’d find it worthwhile to secure professional packing services. If, on the other hand, you enjoy packing, you could answer this question differently.

It can help to think about the benefits of having your Charlotte moving company box up your belongings to aid you in answering this question for yourself. They include saving time and frustration, knowing that professionals will expertly box up belongings using the best quality of packing supplies, and the ability to put your attention elsewhere during your relocation.

You can get a quote here to find out what your move will cost with full or partial packing services included.

How do I choose among the moving companies in Charlotte, NC?

You can ask friends and family members who have recently relocated for their recommendations for Charlotte moving companies and then investigate them. Do they have the experience you need? Suddath has second-to-none levels of experience and expertise among moving companies in Charlotte, NC, relocating families nationally for more than 100 years. Do they provide the services you need? Suddath provides quality local movers in Charlotte as well as long-distance ones with flexible service menus, also offering international moving services.

Adaptable services include our packing and unpacking services, secure and convenient storage solutions, and specialty packing services like piano moving and custom crating. Our Charlotte moving company also offers white glove moving services, a high-end experience in a concierge style.

Putting this all together, we’d humbly say that Suddath numbers in the best of the moving companies in Charlotte, NC. We also offer fast, accurate, transparent quotes.
