Moving services in Dunwoody, GA from Bears Moving Co. cover whole homes, apartments, offices, pianos, single furniture pieces, and any local move inside our radius. One licensed crew, one hourly rate, no per-stair or travel surcharges — the only question is which service fits your move.
Choosing the right service first saves you time on the phone. Each Dunwoody service below has its own page with crew sizing, what is included, and realistic hour ranges for that specific kind of move.
Dunwoody homes skew toward condo towers, mid-rise buildings, and executive townhomes, which means the move runs on a reserved elevator and a dock window rather than a driveway.
Perimeter Center buildings load exclusively from structured parking with clearance bars around 7 feet, so truck size is decided before dispatch.
Perimeter Center buildings run garage-level docks with height limits, so we bring the right truck for the clearance, reserve the freight cab, and route carts through service corridors instead of the tenant lobby.
Every Dunwoody service except piano work is billed at one transparent hourly rate covering the crew, truck, fuel, dollies, blankets, shrink wrap, floor runners, and basic furniture disassembly and reassembly.
Most Dunwoody residential moves run 8–10+ hours with a 3- or 4-mover crew for a 4-bedroom split-level in Georgetown, Mount Vernon Woods, or Winters Chapel, 8–10+ hours for a 4-bed with a finished basement, and 8–10+ hours for 5-bedroom homes. Perimeter high-rise studios and 1-beds typically finish in our 2-hour minimum to 4 hours. Drive time is included in the hourly rate — no per-mile fuel surcharge.
The most common pricing trap with other Dunwoody movers is a 'flat rate' quote based on bedroom count that doesn't account for the basement workshop or garage attic; we always ask.
A Dunwoody 3-bedroom runs 4–8 hours with three movers; a 4-bedroom with a basement adds roughly two hours.
Piano work is the one exception in Dunwoody: upright and spinet pianos are quoted as a flat fee based on the instrument, the stairs and access at both ends, and the mileage between them — never by the hour. Dunwoody flat rates are driven by the interior stair: a level living-room route is our base upright price, while a foyer stair or a bonus-room descent prices higher.
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.
Most Dunwoody homes are split-levels and two-stories with a level garage entry, so the interior stair between the garage and the bedrooms sets the crew size, not the driveway.
In Dunwoody we reserve the freight elevator, file the building's Certificate of Insurance, and confirm the loading dock height before move day so the crew isn't waiting in the lobby.
Perimeter towers release freight windows in the evening and on Saturdays; Sunday work is possible with advance notice to property management.
Our Dunwoody crews work in Dunwoody Village, Perimeter Center, Tilly Mill, Georgetown, Mount Vernon Woods, and Winters Chapel — and the addresses in between. Each of those areas has its own access profile, from curb width to elevator rules, and we plan the truck placement before the crew leaves the yard.
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.
Dunwoody households typically move tower-to-tower, condo-to-house, or into a rental while a purchase closes.

Dunwoody homes skew toward condo towers, mid-rise buildings, and executive townhomes, which means the move runs on a reserved elevator and a dock window rather than a driveway.
Perimeter Center towers, Dunwoody Village apartments, Ashford-Dunwoody corridor buildings, and Georgetown-area communities. The Perimeter high-rises are the strictest in the area — COI, elevator reservation, and a floor-protection plan, all of which we file in advance.
Dunwoody commercial tenants skew corporate: benching systems, height-adjustable desks, IT closets, and break rooms that come with far more equipment than anyone estimates. Perimeter towers release freight windows in the evening and on Saturdays; Sunday work is possible with advance notice to property management.
Upright and spinet pianos only, moved for a flat fee based on the instrument, stairs, and mileage. Consoles and spinets dominate Dunwoody, and there is a steady flow of student uprights around the school districts each summer.
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.
Family homes of 3-5 bedrooms dominate, with a steady flow of Perimeter apartment and condo moves alongside them. Dunwoody moves stack up in June and July around the school calendar — book those four to six weeks out.
Bears Moving Co. offers six services in Dunwoody: residential (whole-home) moves, apartment and condo moves, office and commercial relocations, upright and spinet piano moves, single-item furniture moves, and general local moves inside our radius. We do not sell packing services or storage. Every job is run by our own licensed, background-checked employees rather than subcontracted labor.
Start with the building type. A house or townhome is a residential move; an apartment, condo or high-rise unit is an apartment move because of elevator, COI and dock scheduling; a business is an office and commercial move. A single heavy piece is a furniture move, and an upright or spinet piano is a flat-rate piano move.
Dunwoody homes skew toward condo towers, mid-rise buildings, and executive townhomes, which means the move runs on a reserved elevator and a dock window rather than a driveway.
Most Dunwoody residential moves run 8–10+ hours with a 3- or 4-mover crew for a 4-bedroom split-level in Georgetown, Mount Vernon Woods, or Winters Chapel, 8–10+ hours for a 4-bed with a finished basement, and 8–10+ hours for 5-bedroom homes. Perimeter high-rise studios and 1-beds typically finish in our 2-hour minimum to 4 hours. Drive time is included in the hourly rate — no per-mile fuel surcharge.

No. About 25 min north of Atlanta via GA-400. Drive time is built into the schedule rather than billed as a surcharge, so a Dunwoody address is quoted at the same hourly rate as an in-town Atlanta address.
Yes. Combining a home move with a piano or a single oversized item is common in Dunwoody. We scope the combined work up front so you get one crew, one arrival window, and one invoice — with the flat piano fee shown as its own line rather than folded into the hourly total.
