"Peachtree Movers" is a name several unrelated Atlanta-area companies use, so the first thing worth checking is which business you're actually quoting — and whether its Georgia HHG license and insurance are active today.
Bears Moving Co. is one company with one license: Georgia HHG #9320 and USDOT #3657392, BBB A+ rated, locally owned and operated across metro Atlanta. Every quote comes from the same team that runs the move.
Read any moving quote for three things: what the hourly rate actually covers, whether travel or drive time is billed separately, and whether stairs, elevators, or bulky items trigger extra charges. Ours includes fuel, pads, shrink wrap, dollies, floor protection, and basic disassembly and reassembly, with a true two-hour minimum and no stair fees.

Several unrelated metro Atlanta businesses trade under Peachtree-style names, and some share phone numbers with lead brokers rather than moving crews. Before you sign, match the legal business name on the estimate to an active Georgia HHG license, and confirm the truck showing up belongs to that company rather than a subcontractor.
The number that matters is the all-in hourly rate. Ours includes fuel, moving blankets, shrink wrap, dollies, floor runners, door-jamb protection, bed disassembly and reassembly, and TV dismount. If a competing quote lists any of those as line items, add them back before comparing rates.
Ask whether drive time is billed separately, what the minimum is, and how time is rounded after the minimum. We bill drive time inside the hourly rate, hold a true two-hour minimum, and bill in fifteen-minute increments after that — no half-hour rounding in the company's favor.
Stairs, elevator reservations, long carries from a dock or gate, and bulky items are the most common sources of a final bill that beats the estimate. We size the crew for access at quote time instead of charging for it later, and we do not add per-stair or per-flight fees.
Every Georgia mover must carry released-value protection; what varies is how claims are handled and how fast a certificate of insurance can be issued for your building. We are fully insured, issue building COIs within 24 hours, and handle claims directly rather than routing them through a franchisor.

Compare what the hourly rate includes, whether drive time or travel is billed separately, the minimum hours, and whether stairs, elevators, long carries, or bulky items add fees. A lower rate with add-ons often costs more.
