Bears Moving Co. moves single pieces and furniture-only loads in Chamblee — store and Marketplace pickups, deliveries the retailer won't carry upstairs, moving one heavy item between floors, and rearranging a room. Two movers, a padded truck, and a true 2-hour minimum with fuel, pads, straps, dollies, floor protection, and basic disassembly and reassembly included. Licensed GA HHG #9320 and fully insured.
This is not a whole-home move — it's the job most movers won't take.
Sectionals and sleeper sofas, king and queen mattress sets, armoires and china hutches, dining tables with stone or glass tops, dressers and wardrobes, desks and filing cabinets, treadmills and Pelotons, recliners and lift chairs, patio sets, upright and spinet pianos, gun safes, disassembled pool tables, large mirrors and artwork, and appliances that aren't hard-plumbed.
Common Chamblee pickup points include Facebook Marketplace and OfferUp pickups, estate sales and consignment shops, West Elm, Article, and CB2 deliveries, and curbside and storage-unit pickups. The most common Chamblee requests are sleeper sofas that won't clear a stairwell, marble tables, and Marketplace finds that need a truck the same day.
We move regularly through Huntley Hills off Chamblee-Dunwoody Road, Sexton Woods, the streets around Peachtree-DeKalb Airport, the lofts and townhomes around the Chamblee MARTA station, and the new Parkside development.
Our crews know which Huntley Hills streets have narrow turn radiuses that exclude a 26-foot truck (we send a 20-footer), that the Peachtree Industrial corridor backs up at shift change for the surrounding warehouses, and which Chamblee Heights duplexes have shared driveways that need owner coordination before move day.
About 20 min north of Atlanta via I-85 or Peachtree Road. Drive time to Chamblee is inside the hourly rate, so a single-item pickup in DeKalb County doesn't carry a trip charge. The Chamblee areas we get furniture calls from most: Huntley Hills, Sexton Woods, Keswick Park, and Chamblee Heights.
Chamblee's housing stock is older than most suburbs in the area — Huntley Hills, Sexton Woods, and Keswick Park are dominated by 1,400–2,200 sq ft ranches from the 1950s with original hardwoods, narrow doorways (some sub-30 inch), and detached garages or carports rather than attached garages. Crews bring door-jamb pads on every Chamblee booking and we measure oversized furniture against doorway widths at quote time.
The Peachtree Road corridor and the new builds around the Chamblee MARTA station (Parkside at Chamblee, Whitehall Lofts) operate more like in-town apartments with elevator reservations and COI requirements. We split crew assignments by neighborhood so the right experience shows up.
Older Chamblee homes and walk-ups have narrow doors, tight stair turns, and street-only parking, so we measure the piece and the turn before we lift. Before anything moves we measure the piece against the narrowest point on the route — doorway, stair turn, elevator diagonal — and decide whether to remove legs, take a door off its hinges, or hoist over a rail.
Floor runners, corner guards, and pads go down first, and doorframes get protected on every carry.
Every piece is shrink-wrapped or blanket-wrapped before it leaves the room it's in, not after it's on the truck. That's the difference between a furniture mover and a truck with two people in it.
Most Chamblee single-item jobs finish inside our 2-hour minimum with two movers; stairs are the only real variable. Everything bills at our transparent hourly rate with a true 2-hour minimum — no trip charge, no fuel surcharge, no per-stair or per-flight fee, no charge for pads, straps, dollies, or floor protection.
Basic disassembly and reassembly (bed frames, table legs, sectional feet, treadmill folding) is part of the rate, not an add-on.
Two things change the number: distance to a pickup point outside DeKalb County, and whether the item needs specialty handling — a safe over about 600 lbs, an upright piano, or a stone slab. Tell us the piece and the stairs when you call and we'll give you the honest hour range before you book.
Plenty of Chamblee jobs never leave the house: a sectional moving from the basement to the main floor, a bedroom set relocating so hardwoods can be refinished, a home office swapping rooms, or heavy furniture staged for carpet install or a home sale. Two movers for two hours handles most of it, and we put everything back exactly where you point.
If you're staging a Chamblee home for sale, we'll move pieces to a garage or storage unit and bring them back after closing on the same hourly rate.
