Local moving from the home office
Every moving company says they're local. We mean it literally: T&T started in Statesboro, the office is still here, and the crews that show up at your door drove over from this side of town. When something needs sorting out on move day, the person who sorts it is ten minutes away, not in another city.
Local moves are hourly, by crew size. What moves the number is how much you own, how many stairs are involved, and the drive between the two addresses. You'll hear that structure on the first phone call, not after the fact, and the table further down shows what moves your size typically add up to.
The Georgia Southern calendar
Statesboro runs on two calendars, and the second one belongs to the university. Every August the complexes off Fair Road and Lanier Drive turn over in the same few days, and every May they empty out again. We've moved students in and out of the same buildings for years — we know which ones have an elevator, which stairwells are tight, and which parking lots a truck can't turn around in.
Most of these moves are arranged by a parent two hours away. That's fine: we'll quote by phone, take direction from whoever's paying, and text when the truck is loaded. Renting a truck and just need loaders? That's labor-only, and it's a lot of what we do in August.
Out in the county
A good share of Bulloch County moves involve a dirt road, a driveway measured in tenths of a mile, and a house that GPS puts in the wrong field. Send us a pin and a photo of the drive when you call. If a full-size truck can't make the turn or the ground is soft after rain, we shuttle the last stretch in a smaller one — a known plan, not a surprise on the morning.
Farm places also hold more than town houses do: the workshop, the barn, the shed with thirty years in it. Tell us about the outbuildings up front and the estimate will actually match the day.
The old streets
Savannah Avenue and the blocks around downtown have the houses that make Statesboro look like Statesboro — deep porches, big trees over the drive, staircases that turn, plaster walls and heart-pine floors. Truck placement gets decided on the walk-through, not on arrival, and the floors get runners before the first piece moves.
The towns around us
Brooklet, Register, Portal, Metter, Claxton, Sylvania, Millen, Swainsboro — a fifteen-minute move out to one of them gets exactly the same crew and the same hourly structure as a move across town. The longer runs across the region — Vidalia, Dublin, Waynesboro, up to Augusta — we'll tell you on the call whether yours prices better hourly or as one flat number in writing.
The Savannah run
Statesboro to Savannah or Pooler is the single most common move we make out of town, and it's usually a one-day job. Ask when you call and you'll get a real number, not a range.
Built for Bulloch summers
August move-in week lands in the hottest stretch of the year, and a crew that's been going since seven does not move furniture the way a fresh one does. So summer moves start early, the truck carries more water than it needs, and the schedule has enough room that nobody is racing the clock at three in the afternoon.
What's included, no asterisks
- Disassembly and reassembly of beds, tables, and the furniture that has to come apart
- Moving pads and blankets on your furniture for the ride
- Floor runners and door protection at both ends
- Placement where you actually want it — including the second guess after you've seen it in the room
Want the boxes handled too? That's packing services. Leaving the area entirely? That's long-distance, quoted flat before move day.
