Straight Answers for Dunwoody Residents Planning a Move

Planning a move inside the perimeter means dealing with many unknowns at once. New neighborhood, new routine, new logistics. One thing that doesn't have to be an unknown? The moving company you choose. Here's a plain-language guide to the questions customers ask us most, so you can check that part off the list and focus on everything else.

Questions Customers often ask:

1. How much does it cost to hire a moving company in Dunwoody?

Prices generally run from $300 on the low end to $1,500 for larger jobs. The size of your home, the number of movers needed, and time on the job are the main cost drivers. We give every customer a free estimate, so the number you see is the number you plan around.

2. Do movers charge for their drive time to my address?

Yes — a travel fee is standard among Atlanta-based professional movers and covers the crew's drive to your home and back to the warehouse. Ours is included in your estimate, so you see the full picture before anything is booked.

3. Are weekends more expensive for moving?

Generally, weekend and end-of-month dates are busiest, and that can affect both availability and cost. A mid-week move tends to offer more flexibility. We recommend booking 2–4 weeks in advance, regardless of which day you're aiming for.

4. What's a good amount of lead time when booking movers?

Two to four weeks gives you the best selection of dates. Spring and summer moves fill up faster than any other time of year, and month-end dates go especially quickly. Need something sooner? Call your local TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® team, and we'll do our best.

5. Can you describe what's included in a standard Two Men and a Truck move?

Every standard move includes two trained movers, a truck, and protective gear: furniture pads, stretch wrap, and dollies. We load everything at your current home, drive to your new address, unload, and place items in the rooms you've designated.

6. Does Two Men and a Truck offer packing help?

Yes — full packing and unpacking is available. Our team uses professional materials to pack everything from everyday kitchen items to fragile belongings. Add packing to your move or book it separately if that's all you need.

7. Where can I get boxes for my move?

TWO MEN AND A TRUCK supplies boxes in multiple sizes along with specialty options, packing paper, tape, and bubble wrap. Just bring it up when you're getting your estimate, and we'll make sure you're stocked before the big day.

8. Can Two Men and a Truck move oversized or specialty items?

Yes. Pianos, safes, antiques, and heavy furniture are all within our scope. These items need to be disclosed at booking so our Dunwoody-based team arrives with the right equipment and, when necessary, additional crew members.

9. My move date changed because of a real estate delay. Now what?

Contact us as early as you can, and we'll work to reschedule. We're used to the unpredictable nature of real estate timelines. Review the rescheduling terms when you book so you know what the process looks like.

10. How do Two Men and a Truck movers protect floors and doorways in homes?

On every Atlanta move, our crew brings floor runners, door frame protectors, furniture pads, and stretch wrap. We hold ourselves to what we call the Grandma Rule — we take care of your home the same way we'd treat hers.

11. What recourse do I have if something is damaged during my move?

TWO MEN AND A TRUCK is fully licensed and insured in Georgia. We have a clear process for handling claims, and we follow it. Before your move, your coordinator can explain your valuation and protection options — so you know what coverage applies to your belongings.

12. I need temporary storage in Dunwoody while I wait for my new home to be ready.

We can help with that. Short-term storage is available for customers in transition, with a secure, climate-controlled facility. Our storage is offered as Storage-In-Transit (S-I-T), which is tailored to customers temporarily between homes. Ask about availability and cost when scheduling your move.
