Can you provide a Certificate of Insurance for my Kirkwood building?

Yes. We issue building-specific Certificates of Insurance (COIs) within 24 hours of request — required by most Kirkwood high-rises and condo buildings. Just send us your property manager's COI requirements when you book and we'll handle it directly with the building.

How do you handle parking and loading in Kirkwood?

We coordinate with you ahead of time on the best loading spot — whether that's a building loading dock, a reserved street space, or a temporary no-parking permit. Kirkwood parking can be tight, so we plan it before move day, not on it.

Do you charge extra for stairs, long carries, or elevators in Kirkwood?

No. Unlike many movers, we do not bill per-stair, per-flight, or per-elevator-trip surcharges in Kirkwood. The hourly rate covers the work — including walk-ups, basement carries, and high-floor freight elevators. The only thing that affects your total is the time it takes to do the job right.

How far in advance should I book a Kirkwood move?

For weekends and end-of-month dates we recommend booking 2–4 weeks ahead, especially during the May–September peak season. For weekday moves in Kirkwood we can often accommodate 3–7 days out. Last-minute? Call us — we'll do our best to fit you in.

Can you handle fragile items, antiques, and artwork in Kirkwood?

Yes. We bring extra blankets, mattress bags, picture boxes, and shrink-wrap on every move. For high-value pieces in Kirkwood — antiques, artwork, pianos, marble tops — let us know in advance so we can plan custom crating, additional padding, or specialized equipment.

Are you licensed and insured to move in Kirkwood, GA?

Yes. Bears Moving Co. is licensed by the Georgia Department of Public Safety under GA HHG Mover #9320 and carries full cargo and liability insurance on every Kirkwood move. We can name your building or property manager as additional insured on a Certificate of Insurance.

What ZIP codes do you serve in Kirkwood?

We regularly move customers in 30317 and the surrounding Kirkwood area.

What forms of payment do you accept for Kirkwood moves?

We accept all major credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, ACH bank transfer, and cash. Payment is collected at the end of the job once you've inspected the unload — never up-front for Kirkwood local moves.

Do you move studio apartments and small one-bedroom units in Kirkwood?

Absolutely — small Kirkwood moves are a big part of what we do. Studios and one-bedrooms near Pratt-Pullman District typically wrap inside our 2-hour minimum with a 2-mover crew, including loading, drive time, and unload. If your building (especially around 30317) requires a freight elevator reservation, let us know when you book so we can hold the right window.

What should I have ready before the crew arrives in Kirkwood?

Have every box packed, taped, and labeled by room before move day — we move boxes but we don't sell packing services, so anything still open slows the clock. Empty dresser drawers of breakables, clear a path from the furthest room to the door, and reserve the elevator or loading zone if your Kirkwood building requires it.

Do you offer storage between moves in Kirkwood?

No — we don't offer storage of any kind. We can, however, load out to or pick up from a self-storage facility you've already rented in or near Kirkwood as a stop on the same job. Tell us the facility name, unit floor, and gate hours at quote time so the schedule accounts for the second stop.

Can you move large or specialty items like pianos, gun safes, or Peloton bikes in Kirkwood?

Yes — we move upright and spinet pianos (no baby grands or grands), gun safes up to ~1,000 lbs, Pelotons, treadmills, pool tables (disassembled), and large aquariums (drained) throughout Kirkwood. Specialty items need a quick pre-move call so we can bring the right straps, dollies, and crew size for your specific stairs, doorways, and elevators near Bessie Branham Park.

Do you move on weekends and holidays in Kirkwood?

Yes. We run crews in Kirkwood seven days a week, including most major holidays, with no weekend or holiday surcharge. Saturday and end-of-month dates book up fastest — we recommend reserving 2–4 weeks ahead for those slots, especially during the May–September peak season.
