Our response to the Coronavirus
The capital and largest city in the Peach State, Atlanta is known for its world-class amenities, nightlife, and rich history, especially when it comes to the Civil Rights Movement. There are more than 200 neighborhoods in Atlanta with cultural and outdoor attractions like the Atlanta Botanical Gardens, Georgia Aquarium, and the World of Coca-Cola.
Are you moving to Atlanta, relocating within the metro Atlanta area, or leaving Georgia completely? Professional Atlanta movers make the moving experience as worry free and easy as possible. Wirks Moving & Storage is proud to offer personalized service with the competitive pricing and dependability you deserve. Our service area includes Gwinnett and Fulton County and surrounding areas of Metro Atlanta.
You most likely have important reasons for relocating that make it worth the stress and complicated process. Your upcoming transition may be prompted by a career change, major life event, or you may just be looking for a better quality of life in a new neighborhood or city.
Many moves within the metro area are due to changes to the household, including marriage, divorce, or welcoming a new child. You may be working with a moving company in Atlanta because you’re buying a house, changing neighborhoods for better schools or a shorter commute, or relocating to the suburbs for a lower cost of living and less crime.
If you are planning to relocate out of the Atlanta GA area, you may be moving closer to friends and family, pursuing new employment opportunities, or seeking more affordable living. You might even be ready to escape the notorious Atlanta traffic for a more laidback lifestyle and time spent doing the things you want, not sitting in your car. The most common destinations for people leaving the city are still in the South: Chattanooga and Knoxville, TN, and Jacksonville and Destin, FL, are in the top five destinations for people moving from Atlanta. The last destination in the top five is still in Georgia: the Macon metro area just 80 miles southeast.
No matter why you’re ready to work with moving companies to make this transition a reality or where life is taking you next, Wirks Moving & Storage is ready to help. We’ll handle all the logistics and hard work so you can look forward to what’s awaiting you in your new home.

Certified and insured. Georgia movers must hold a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity from the Georgia DPS for intrastate moves. For interstate relocations, the company should have a valid US DOT number. They should also be insured to cover injuries, losses, and accidents.
Background checked, experienced movers. The team handling your relocation should be fully vetted with years of experience.
Great reputation for customer satisfaction. Check reviews from past customers and look for any history of complaints with the Department of Public Safety, the BBB, and the FMCSA.
Extensive experience. Look for a company with years of experience in the moving industry.
Reasonable rates. Movers cannot exceed the Maximum Tariff Rates set by law, but prices can still vary significantly. Look for transparency and competitive pricing.

Cost is likely one of the first concerns when you hire movers. N o matter how you do it, moving is costly! Local moves have an average cost of $800 to $2,500 nationwide, while long distance moves usually cost $2,200 and up. Your price may vary significantly depending on a number of factors.
When you request a moving quote, the moving company may consider the following:
Some companies charge an hourly rate for local moving service and a flat rate cost for long distance relocations. At Wirks Moving & Storage, we take pride in our competitive, transparent pricing. We offer flat rate local moves within 50 minutes of your origin, so you know exactly what you will pay. Note that there will be an additional cost for boxes and supplies we provide.
Remember when requesting quotes that moving companies in Atlanta cannot charge rates that exceed the Maximum Rate Tariff published by the Georgia Department of Public Safety.

Is it your first time hiring Atlanta home movers or are you just unsure what to expect? Here are common questions we hear from customers.
How much should I tip movers in Atlanta?
Tipping is not required, but movers always appreciate recognition for a job done well. A general rule of thumb is $10 to $25 per mover for a smaller job, $50 to $100 for a large, full-day relocation, or 15-20% of the total cost. Consider the complexity, difficulty, and level of care your move requires and how impressed you are with the team’s skill, speed, and professionalism.
Will Atlanta moving companies pack my house?
Full service movers in Atlanta can handle all the packing or just certain items or rooms in your home. The team will bring all the boxes and materials to safely pack your belongings with care using special techniques for furniture, glassware, artwork, clothing, fragile items, and more.
What’s the difference between local and long distance moving?
Every company has their own definition of a local move which is usually a radius of 25 to 50 miles of your origin but may include an entire county or metro area. Long distance moves are relocations that fall outside this radius. Local movers usually charge an hourly rate with a flat-rate cost for long distance moves, but this can also vary by mover.
Taking just a few steps now can make your moving day as seamless as possible. Here are some tips as you plan for your big move.

“Large enough to handle – small enough to care”™
Suzy Smith – Keller Williams Realty First Atlanta
“We’ve done a number of moves over the years, and this last one was by far our largest move that we’ve ever made, but it was also the easiest one we’ve ever made thanks to the great people that helped us from Wirks Moving.
So whether you’re an agent looking to recommend a top notch company that will make you look good, or whether you’re just looking to make a move on your own, I can’t recommend Wirks Moving highly enough.”
