Marietta Movers — Bears Moving Co.

From Marietta Square historic homes to East Cobb subdivisions, our licensed Georgia crew (GA HHG #9320) handles Marietta moves with the same honest hourly pricing you'd get downtown.

Marietta is in Cobb County. About 30 min northwest of Atlanta on I-75. Drive time is inside our standard hourly rate — there is no Cobb County travel surcharge and no per-mile fuel fee.

Marietta is really three different cities for movers: the Marietta Square historic core, East Cobb's large family subdivisions, and West Cobb's newer, larger-lot suburban developments. Each has its own logistics. Around the Square, the homes are 1880s–1920s wood-frame Victorians and craftsmans on tight lots with original heart-pine floors and shallow porches — we treat those moves with the same care as Decatur or Inman Park.

East Cobb (around Roswell Road, Lower Roswell, Johnson Ferry, and Sandy Plains) is dominated by 1980s–2000s brick-front colonials in HOA subdivisions with two-car garages, basement levels, and frequently a bonus room over the garage that adds 30+ moving boxes. West Cobb (Powder Springs Road, Dallas Highway, Stilesboro) skews newer and larger: 4–5 bedroom homes on half-acre lots, often with detached workshops or sheds.

We send 3–4 mover crews with a 26-foot truck for East and West Cobb full-house moves by default.

A 3-bedroom East Cobb home typically runs 4–8 hours with a 3-mover crew. A 4-to-5 bedroom West Cobb home with a basement runs 8–10+ hours with a 3- or 4-mover crew. Marietta Square historic homes follow the same hours-to-bedroom math as Decatur — add 1–2 hours for porch protection and tighter walks. Drive time is included in the hourly rate, with no county travel surcharge.

The most common pricing gap we close for Marietta customers: other movers add a flat 'travel fee' for being north of I-285 — we don't.

We move in and out of the Marietta Square historic district, the East Cobb subdivisions off Lower Roswell and Johnson Ferry (Indian Hills, Princeton Lakes, Sweat Mountain), the Walton and Pope High School cluster neighborhoods, and the larger West Cobb subdivisions off Dallas Highway and Stilesboro.

Our crews know which Marietta Square streets are one-way during the farmers market on Saturdays, which East Cobb HOAs require weekday-only moves, and where on Powder Springs Road the bridges have low clearance for a 26-foot truck. We've done apartment moves in the complexes off Cobb Parkway and around Town Center Mall, and office moves in the Powers Ferry Landing and Cumberland-adjacent commercial parks.

Neighborhoods and communities we move in Marietta: East Cobb, Kennesaw Mountain, Marietta Square, West Cobb. Each has its own page with parking, elevator, and COI details.

Planning a move in Marietta

How Marietta moves are scheduled

Most Marietta jobs book 1–3 weeks out, and end-of-month and Saturday dates in Cobb 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 Marietta needs a certificate of insurance, we issue it within 24 hours of getting the property manager's requirements.

What's included on every Marietta move

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 Marietta is billed inside the hourly rate rather than added as a trip charge, and there are no per-stair, per-flight, or elevator fees.

Buildings and streets we know in Marietta

East Cobb (Walton High School, Sope Creek); Kennesaw Mountain (Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield, Burnt Hickory Road homes); Marietta Square (Marietta Square, Glover Park); West Cobb (The Avenue West Cobb, Lost Mountain Park). Our crews scope parking, dock access, and elevator reservations for each address before move day rather than improvising on arrival.

Moving out of Marietta or into it

We handle both directions at the same hourly rate — Marietta to intown Atlanta, Marietta 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.

Frequently asked questions

Do you serve East Cobb and West Cobb separately, or as one zone?

One zone — both are part of our Cobb County service area at the standard hourly rate. The crews and equipment differ (East Cobb skews 3-bedroom colonials, West Cobb skews 4–5 bedroom larger homes), but pricing doesn't.

Can you move me to or from a home around Marietta Square?

Yes — the Square's historic homes are some of our favorite jobs. We bring extra floor runners, shorter ramps for porch steps, and we'll right-size the truck (often a 20-footer) to fit narrow streets like Kennesaw Avenue and Polk.

Is there a travel fee for Marietta because it's outside I-285?

No. Cobb County is part of our standard Metro Atlanta service zone. Drive time is included in the hourly rate, and there's no per-mile, per-trip, or fuel surcharge.

How do I-75 traffic patterns affect my Marietta move?

I-75 northbound backs up 7–9am and southbound 4–6:30pm. We default Marietta starts to 8am or 1pm to keep the truck in motion. Drive time stays inside the hourly rate, so a slow connector doesn't pad your bill the way a per-mile mover would.
