Johns Island offers options for every lifestyle:
Johns Island experiences the same humid subtropical climate as Charleston, with mild winters and hot, humid summers. The area sees about 209 sunny days each year. For a more comfortable move, spring or fall are ideal times to avoid the peak heat and humidity. Hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, and due to the Lowcountry’s low elevation (around 19 feet), flooding can occasionally occur. We operate year-round — just keep an eye on the weather forecast during storm season.
We deliver comprehensive moving services, from local and long-distance relocations to professional packing and unpacking. Our offerings include labor-only loading and unloading, furniture assembly and disassembly, eco-friendly junk removal with recycling or donation, and secure storage coordination. Our skilled crews are also experienced in handling specialty items such as pianos, antiques, and office equipment safely and efficiently.
We regularly assist customers with moves to and from storage units, though we don’t manage our own facilities. If you’re looking for storage, our team can recommend reliable climate-controlled options and handle the pickup and delivery of your items for you.
Tipping is never required but always appreciated! As a general rule, 15–20% of the total moving cost is common, while for smaller local moves, $10–$20 per mover is typical. The choice is entirely yours—base it on the level of service you receive. Our crews are always grateful for the gesture!
Our Johns Island crews know every back road and bridge. We plan routes around Maybank Highway traffic and ferry times, secure any required permits, and move you across the island safely and efficiently.
Already have a rental truck or storage container? Our crew can handle the heavy lifting — loading, unloading, or moving furniture as needed. We also offer help with home staging to prepare your property for sale.
If your move-out and move-in dates don’t match up, we’ll keep your belongings safe in secure, climate-controlled storage. Every item is pad-wrapped for protection, and we never mix your inventory with anyone else’s.
Moving to a smaller home or transitioning to assisted living? Our caring team supports seniors through every step — sorting, packing, and moving with patience, respect, and careful attention to cherished belongings.
A sea island steeped in history. Johns Island is South Carolina’s largest island and the fourth‑largest on the East Coast. About one‑third of its 84 square miles sits within Charleston’s city limits. Named after Saint John parish in Barbados, the island is bordered by Wadmalaw, Seabrook, Kiawah, Edisto, Folly, and James islands and is separated from them by the Stono and Kiawah rivers. Despite its size, Johns Island is just 11–12 miles from downtown Charleston and retains a rural feel, making it a peaceful haven close to city amenities.
Johns Island combines coastal charm with true Southern hospitality, but newcomers should be aware that summers can be humid, traffic can build up on two-lane roads during busy seasons, and the area is prone to hurricanes. Still, its mild winters and laid-back lifestyle make it a wonderful place to call home.
Don’t let clutter complicate your move. Our Johns Island junk removal experts handle it all — from old furniture and appliances to yard debris and renovation waste. We make every effort to donate and recycle whenever possible, keeping usable items out of landfills.
