Residential Movers in Roswell
Bears Moving Co. handles whole-home residential moves in Roswell — studios through five-bedroom houses, packed, padded, loaded, driven, and set back up in the right rooms. Every move includes the crew, the truck, fuel and drive time, blankets, shrink wrap, dollies, floor runners, door-jamb protection, and basic bed, table, and TV disassembly and reassembly.
A Roswell three-bedroom home typically runs 4–8 hours with a 3-mover crew; four bedrooms and up run 8–10+ hours. Licensed GA HHG #9320 and fully insured, with no per-stair fees and no surprise add-ons at the end.
Roswell is mostly two-story single-family homes, split-levels, and townhomes with garages, finished basements, and bonus rooms over the garage. We scope the job by room count, not by guesswork: bedrooms, the kitchen, the garage, the basement, the attic, the shed, and the patio all get counted before we quote a crew size and a truck.
Roswell families usually move within the same school district, upsize a few miles out, or downsize once the kids are gone. We move households within Fulton County, across Metro Atlanta, and out of state, and the same crew that loads your home unloads it.
We move in and out of the historic homes along Canton Street, Atlanta Street, and Mimosa Boulevard, the Bulloch Hall and Barrington Hall areas, the Martin's Landing subdivision off Holcomb Bridge, the Willow Springs golf community, and the East Roswell apartment complexes near Old Alabama and Holcomb Bridge.
Our crews know that the Roswell Square area has weekend foot traffic that closes some streets to commercial vehicles during festivals, that Canton Street's 1-way northbound configuration adds 5 minutes to any return trip to the truck, and that the Old Mill area's bridges have weight restrictions that exclude fully-loaded 26-foot trucks.
About 30 min north of Atlanta via GA-400. Drive time to Roswell is inside the hourly rate, so there is no trip charge for reaching your street. The Roswell areas we run household moves in most: Historic Roswell, Martin's Landing, Willow Springs, and East Roswell.
Roswell's historic district — the streets radiating from Canton and Atlanta Streets near the Roswell Square — has some of the oldest homes we move on a regular basis. We're talking 1840s antebellum, 1880s Victorian, 1920s craftsman, with original heart-pine floors, plaster walls, narrow doorways (sometimes under 30 inches), and front porches that don't accommodate a 4-wheel dolly without floor protection.
Every historic Roswell move ships with extra floor runners, longer door-jamb pads, and 4-mover crews even for 2-bedroom homes (because the careful pace adds time). Martin's Landing and Willow Springs are 1980s–2000s subdivisions with 3–5 bedroom homes on quarter-to-half-acre lots — standard suburban logistics. East Roswell (along Holcomb Bridge and Old Alabama) is a mix of newer townhouses and apartment complexes with COI requirements.
GA-400 access adds about 30 minutes off-peak.
Most Roswell homes give us a driveway right up to the door, so the truck parks close and the crew works a short, protected carry path through the garage or front entry. Floor runners, corner guards, and door-jamb pads go down before the first box leaves the house, and every piece of furniture is wrapped in the room it's standing in rather than out on the driveway.
If your building or HOA requires a Certificate of Insurance, we issue it within 24 hours of booking, and we handle elevator reservations, gate codes, and dock windows as part of the job instead of leaving them to you.
Most Roswell families pack their own boxes and we move everything. If you'd rather not, we offer full or partial packing — kitchens, fragile dish-pack, closets, or the whole house — using professional cartons, paper, and dish barrels. Wardrobe boxes come on the truck so hanging clothes stay on their hangers.
Bed frames, table legs, sectional feet, desks, and standard TV dismounts are taken apart and put back together as part of the move, not as an add-on. Beds are reassembled and made accessible on the first night, and boxes go to the rooms they're labeled for so unpacking isn't a scavenger hunt.
A Roswell three-bedroom home typically runs 4–8 hours with a 3-mover crew; four bedrooms and up run 8–10+ hours. Everything bills at one transparent hourly rate that covers the crew, the truck, fuel and drive time, all pads and wrap, dollies and straps, floor and doorway protection, and basic disassembly and reassembly.
There is no per-stair fee, no per-flight fee, no elevator fee, no fuel surcharge, and no equipment rental line.
A historic Roswell 2-bedroom home typically runs 3–6 hours with a 2- or 3-mover crew (porch protection and door-width challenges add 1–2 hours over a comparable suburban home). A Martin's Landing or Willow Springs 3-bedroom runs 4–8 hours with a 3-mover crew. East Roswell apartment moves finish in 2–4 hours with a 2-mover crew. Drive time is included in the hourly rate.
The pricing surprise we most often resolve for Roswell customers: other movers under-quote historic homes by treating them as 'standard' jobs and then running over by hours — we quote the actual time the home will take.
You get a real arrival window the day before with your crew lead's name. On arrival we walk the home with you, flag anything fragile or high-value, set protection, and start loading heaviest-first so the truck rides tight. Time starts when the truck arrives and stops when the last item is placed.
At the destination we walk the home again, place furniture where you want it — not where it lands — reassemble beds and tables, and take the wrap and blankets with us. Payment is by card, ACH, or check at the end, with no deposit forfeitures.

Frequently asked questions
How much do residential movers cost in Roswell?
A Roswell three-bedroom home typically runs 4–8 hours with a 3-mover crew; four bedrooms and up run 8–10+ hours. It bills at one transparent hourly rate covering the crew, truck, fuel, drive time, pads, wrap, dollies, floor protection, and basic disassembly and reassembly.

How long does a house move take in Roswell?
A studio or one-bedroom typically runs 2–4 hours with a 2-mover crew, a two-bedroom 3–6 hours, a three-bedroom 4–8 hours, and four bedrooms or more 8–10+ hours. Stairs, long carries, and packing status are what move the number.
Do you pack for Roswell moves, or do I pack myself?
Both options are available. Most Roswell customers pack their own boxes and we move everything; full and partial packing is available with professional cartons, paper, and dish barrels. Bed disassembly, reassembly, and standard TV dismount are always included.
Do you charge extra for stairs or a long carry in Roswell?
No. Most Roswell homes give us a driveway right up to the door, so the truck parks close and the crew works a short, protected carry path through the garage or front entry. There is no per-stair, per-flight, or elevator charge — the hourly rate covers the work regardless of the access.
How far in advance should I book a Roswell residential move?
Two to four weeks is comfortable, and month-end and summer weekends fill first. We also take same-week and last-minute Roswell household moves when a crew is open — call and we'll tell you honestly what's available.
Are you licensed and insured for household moves in Roswell?
Yes — Bears Moving Co. is a Georgia-licensed household goods carrier, GA HHG #9320, BBB A+ accredited, with full cargo and liability insurance on every Roswell move. Building Certificates of Insurance are issued within 24 hours of booking.
Can you move a Roswell home out of state?
Yes. Long-distance household moves out of Roswell are quoted on the load and the mileage, with the same crew loading and unloading rather than a broker handoff.
