What full-service local moving costs in East Cobb
Full-service local moving in East Cobb runs $160–$320 per hour — crew and truck together, no separate truck fee — with a 2.5-hour minimum (3 hours on weekends, same-day bookings, and moves 25+ miles from downtown). These are LIOO Moving’s published rates:
| Crew | Rate | Typical East Cobb fit |
|---|---|---|
| 2 movers + truck | $160/hr | Small condos, downsizes, 1–2 rooms |
| 3 movers + truck | $200/hr | 2–3BR homes |
| 4 movers + truck | $240/hr | 3–4BR East Cobb homes |
| 5 movers + truck | $280/hr | 4–5BR homes with basement/garage |
| 6 movers + truck | $320/hr | Large homes, staged or multi-stop |
East Cobb is predominantly large, established single-family homes — three-to-five-bedroom houses on subdivision lots across the Walton, Pope, Lassiter, and Wheeler school areas, many with full basements, two-car garages, and attic storage. That footprint is what moves the number here: more rooms and more storage areas than an apartment move, which usually points to a four- or five-mover crew rather than two. Square footage plus how much is in the basement, garage, and attic drives crew size more than anything else — so when you request a quote, describe those spaces.
A 25% reservation deposit holds your date and is fully credited to the final invoice.
How long an East Cobb move takes
You pay by the hour, so hours drive the total. East Cobb’s larger homes sit toward the upper end of these ranges:
| Home | Crew | Typical time |
|---|---|---|
| 2–3BR home | 3 | 4–6 hrs |
| 3–4BR home | 3–4 | 5–7.5 hrs |
| 4–5BR + basement | 4–5 | 6–9+ hrs |
| Large / staged | 5–6 | Full day |
Because most East Cobb moves are driveway-to-driveway single-family homes, the clock rarely goes into building logistics — there’s usually no freight elevator to share or loading dock to reserve, the way there is in a Midtown or Buckhead tower. The time goes into volume: a finished basement, a packed garage, and the carry up or down stairs. A four-to-five-bedroom home with a finished basement is a full-day move.
Housing, access, and what to plan for in East Cobb
Established single-family subdivisions
East Cobb is one of metro Atlanta’s most established suburban housing markets — large single-family homes on subdivision lots, most built between the 1970s and 2000s, concentrated in the top-rated Walton, Pope, Lassiter, and Wheeler school clusters around Johnson Ferry Road and the Avenue East Cobb. Apartments and high-rises are far less common here than intown, so the typical move is a full house with a basement, garage, and attic rather than a one-bedroom unit.
HOA and gated communities
Many East Cobb communities are HOA-governed and some are gated. If your community requires a gate code, a vendor pass, or has specific move-in rules, tell us at booking and we’ll arrange access ahead of the day so the crew isn’t held at the gate on billable time.
Roads and timing
Johnson Ferry Road, Roswell Road (GA-120), Sandy Plains Road, and Shallowford Road connect East Cobb to I-75 and I-575. We schedule start times around the morning and evening waves on those corridors; because LIOO runs 24/7 at the same rates, an early start is often the fastest option.
Is full-service the right call for your East Cobb move?
Full-service (crew + truck) fits when you want the whole move handled end to end. You may want a different LIOO service if:
- You’ve already rented a truck, PODS, or U-Pack. Then you need loaders, not a truck — that’s our labor-only service (crew-only rate, you supply the transport).
- You’re moving out of state. That runs on our long-distance line, priced by weight and distance.
- You’re moving a couple of items and can do the driving. A DIY rental will usually beat any full-service quote — the trade is you carry the labor and the risk.

East Cobb moving FAQs
What do movers cost in East Cobb?
Full-service local moving is $160–$320 per hour — crew and truck together — with a 2.5-hour minimum. Because East Cobb homes are large, most moves total toward the upper end. Crew size (driven by square footage plus basement, garage, and attic) matters more than mileage.
How long does a large East Cobb home take to move?
A three-to-four-bedroom home typically runs 5–7.5 hours; a four-to-five-bedroom home with a finished basement is usually a full day. Volume and stairs drive the hours — there’s rarely elevator or dock waiting on a single-family move.
Do I need a Certificate of Insurance for an East Cobb move?
Usually not — most East Cobb moves are driveway-to-driveway single-family homes, which don’t require the COI or reserved freight elevator that Midtown and Buckhead high-rises do. If your specific building or community requires one, tell us at booking and we’ll handle it.
Can you move me in a gated or HOA community?
Yes. Share the gate code, vendor-pass requirement, or move-in rules when you book, and we’ll arrange access ahead of the day.
Should I book full-service or labor-only?
Book full-service if you want the crew and the truck. If you’ve already rented a truck or container and just need loaders, book labor-only (you supply the transport). We’ll point you to whichever costs you less.
Can you move on nights or weekends?
Yes — LIOO operates 24/7 at the same rates, including nights, weekends, and holidays.
