Bears Moving Co. moves single pieces and furniture-only loads in Dunwoody — 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 Dunwoody pickup points include showroom and design-center deliveries, Restoration Hardware and Arhaus orders, storage-unit retrievals, and condo-to-condo transfers. In Dunwoody we mostly move sectionals, king mattresses, armoires, and designer pieces between condo floors or in from a delivery truck the store won't bring upstairs.
We move regularly in and out of the Dunwoody Village core off Chamblee-Dunwoody Road, the Georgetown ranches between I-285 and Peeler Road, Mount Vernon Woods and the Mount Vernon Estates streets, the Winters Chapel Road corridor along the Peachtree Corners border, the Branches neighborhood off Tilly Mill, and the high-rises and corporate housing around Perimeter Mall, State Farm, and Ashford-Dunwoody.
Our crews know which Perimeter buildings (Three Ravinia, the Terraces, Concourse) require dock-height adjustments for 26-foot trucks, that GA-400 access from Mount Vernon Road backs up after 7am, that Winters Chapel Road narrows at the Gwinnett line so a 26-footer sometimes swaps for a 20, and which Dunwoody Village townhomes have shared HOA driveways that restrict truck staging.
About 25 min north of Atlanta via GA-400. Drive time to Dunwoody is inside the hourly rate, so a single-item pickup in DeKalb County doesn't carry a trip charge. The Dunwoody areas we get furniture calls from most: Dunwoody Village, Perimeter Center, Georgetown, Mount Vernon Woods, Winters Chapel, and Tilly Mill.
Movers in Dunwoody deal with two very different worlds. The Perimeter Center cluster (Three Ravinia, Terraces, Hammond Hills high-rises, the apartments along Ashford-Dunwoody) operates on strict freight-elevator windows and almost always requires a Certificate of Insurance naming the property manager.
The named residential neighborhoods — Dunwoody Village off Chamblee-Dunwoody Road, Georgetown between I-285 and Chamblee-Dunwoody, Mount Vernon Woods off Mount Vernon Road, Winters Chapel along the Peachtree Corners border, plus Tilly Mill and Branches — are dominated by 3,000–4,500 sq ft split-levels and ranches built between 1970 and 1995, with finished basements, two-car garages, and long driveways that fit a 26-foot truck without issue.
The wrinkle: many Dunwoody homes have basement-level workshops or third-bay garage storage that doubles the inventory most customers estimate. We scope basement and attic contents at quote time so the crew size matches reality.
Dunwoody buildings mean a reserved freight elevator, a Certificate of Insurance, and a loading dock window — all of which we arrange before the truck rolls. 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.
A single-piece Dunwoody job usually finishes inside the 2-hour minimum once the elevator window is reserved. 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 Dunwoody 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 Dunwoody home for sale, we'll move pieces to a garage or storage unit and bring them back after closing on the same hourly rate.
