Chamblee mixes 1950s ranches in Huntley Hills with new mixed-use development around the MARTA station and Peachtree Industrial. Bears Moving Co. (GA HHG #9320) handles both with crews that know the parking and curb-cut realities of older Chamblee streets.
Chamblee is in DeKalb County. About 20 min north of Atlanta via I-85 or Peachtree Road. Drive time is inside our standard hourly rate — there is no DeKalb County travel surcharge and no per-mile fuel fee.
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.
Chamblee ranch moves typically run 3–6 hours with a 2- or 3-mover crew for a 2-bedroom, 4–8 hours for a 3-bedroom. New-build townhomes and lofts around the MARTA station run 3–6 hours for a 2-bed with a freight elevator. Drive time is included in the hourly rate.
The common pricing trap in Chamblee is a 'low advertised rate' that excludes wardrobe boxes or mattress bags — ours always includes blankets, wrap, and basic boxes for fragile items.
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.

Most Chamblee jobs book 1–3 weeks out, and end-of-month and Saturday dates in DeKalb County fill first. We confirm crew size, truck size, and arrival window in writing when you book, and we call the morning of the move with the crew's ETA. If a building or HOA in Chamblee needs a certificate of insurance, we issue it within 24 hours of getting the property manager's requirements.
Moving blankets, shrink wrap, straps, dollies, floor runners, and door-jamb protection come on the truck at no charge, along with bed disassembly and reassembly and TV dismount. Drive time to and from Chamblee is billed inside the hourly rate rather than added as a trip charge, and there are no per-stair, per-flight, or elevator fees.
Huntley Hills (Huntley Hills Park & Pool, Chamblee Charter High School); Sexton Woods (Sexton Woods Park, Chamblee Dunwoody Road); Keswick Park (Keswick Park & dog park, Keswick Drive). Our crews scope parking, dock access, and elevator reservations for each address before move day rather than improvising on arrival.
We handle both directions at the same hourly rate — Chamblee to intown Atlanta, Chamblee to the northern or southern suburbs, and long-distance origins within Georgia. Because we are a licensed Georgia household-goods carrier (GA HHG #9320, USDOT #3657392) and fully insured, we can also handle the paperwork buildings and property managers ask for.
We measure oversized pieces (sectionals, king mattresses, armoires) against your doorway widths at quote time. For sub-30-inch doorways common in Huntley Hills and Sexton Woods, we plan disassembly or window/balcony entry before move day — never as a surprise.
Yes — Parkside at Chamblee, Whitehall Lofts, and the townhomes along Peachtree Boulevard are regular jobs. We coordinate freight elevator reservations and COIs with the property managers directly.
No. Chamblee is inside our standard service zone and drive time is included in the hourly rate. No per-mile fuel surcharge.
