It can be tough to sort through all the movers out there, andCharlotte is a big place. That's why we only allow trustable carriers to join our network. If they aren't up to our standards, they don't make it into our marketplace. And if they're good enough to be in the iMoving network, we always check in to make sure they're staying honest.
Local Moving
If you're moving within 100 miles and keeping it within the same state, don't worry - iMoving has just the team of local movers for the job. Local moving companies in Charlotte can be hard to find on short notice, and it can be a tough search if you don't want to deal with any sketchy operators.
Local movers charge per hour, and per mover. This can make collecting quotes a bit of a pain. How mcuh stuff are you moving? How many miles does it have to travel? How bad's the traffic? We'll do the math. All you have to do is pick the mover that you like the most.
Packing Services
Packing is a pain. Between shopping around for boxes, wrapping and loading those boxes, and hoping those t-shirts are enough to keep your fine china safe, it's usually just easier to let the pros take care of it.
But, shopping for packing services in Charlotte isn't so easy. You'll need to sift through tons of options, and it can be hard to tell who's legit, and who's a scam. That's why iMoving makes it easy to find packers you can count on. We make sure our packing teams are prepped and ready with the know-how, experience, and quality materials they need to keep your stuff safe.

FAQ About Charlotte Movers
A Charlotte move can cost you anywhere from $330 to $9150 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.
Some movers provide storage units, but not all of them. It’s always a good idea to shop around for a moving company that can provide all the services you’ll need.
Fortunately, iMoving’s marketplace lets you see what’s on the menu with each mover, including secure storage options.
Charlotte may have decent weather sometimes, but we always recommend a mid-month, mid-week move, in any season but the summer.
Take a word of advice from the iMoving pros: Avoid a June, July, or August move if possible. It’s the most expensive time to move, and it’s usually WAY too hot for hauling boxes.
It's always a good idea to get insurance, and in the interest of being responsible, we're not going to tell you to skip it.
However, if you're feeling risky and you're only moving a couple blocks (without anything fragile thrown in the mix), you may be able to get away with the basic coverage offered by your movers.
Movers need to have an official Department of Transportation (DOT) number, which you should be able to find on their website.
If a moving company handles long distance moves that cross state lines, they'll also need a Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) number.
Don't forget to check reviews and look for any insurance info they may feature on their website.

Movers generally move large, heavy items like furniture and appliances first, followed by boxes and smaller items. This ensures that bulky items are safely loaded and secured in the truck.
Moving to Charlotte is worth it for many, thanks to its affordable cost of living, growing job market, and high quality of life. However, be prepared for traffic congestion and rapid growth.
The cons of living in Charlotte include increasing traffic congestion, hot and humid summers, and urban sprawl. Rapid growth has also led to rising housing costs in some areas.
South Charlotte is considered one of the best areas to live, known for its great schools, shopping, and suburban feel. Neighborhoods like Ballantyne and SouthPark are popular choices for families.
Whether to rent or buy depends on your financial situation. Buying is often a good long-term investment in Charlotte due to rising home values, but renting offers flexibility for newcomers or short-term residents.
