West Ashley is one of Charleston’s oldest suburban areas. It lies west of the Ashley River across from the Charleston peninsula and is shaped like a triangle bordered by the Stono and Ashley Rivers. Most of West Ashley is part of the City of Charleston, and more than half of the city’s residents—roughly 80,000 people—call these suburban and increasingly urban districts home. The area mixes older neighborhoods with large wooded lots and waterfront homes that feel like the country yet are just minutes from downtown.
From historic cottages in Avondale, Byrnes Downs, and The Crescent to master‑planned communities like Carolina Bay and Grand Oaks Plantation, our licensed and insured team delivers a smooth, stress‑free moving experience. Whether you’re decluttering before a sale or relocating your family across the river, our professional movers make all the difference by handling every detail—packing, loading, junk removal, and donation pick‑ups—so you can enjoy West Ashley’s charm without the heavy lifting.

West Ashley offers options to suit every lifestyle:
West Ashley shares Charleston’s humid subtropical climate: mild winters and hot, humid summers. The area enjoys about 209 days of sunshine per year. To avoid the heat and humidity, schedule your move in spring or fall. Hurricane season runs from June 1 through November 30, and the Lowcountry’s low elevation (around 19 ft) makes it vulnerable to flooding. We move year‑round—just keep an eye on weather forecasts during storm season.
We offer complete moving services, including local and long-distance moves, expert packing and unpacking, labor-only loading and unloading, furniture assembly and disassembly, junk removal with recycling and donation, and coordinated secure storage. Our experienced crews are also skilled in handling specialty items such as pianos, antiques, and office equipment with care.
We regularly assist customers with moves to and from storage units, though we don’t operate our own facilities. If you’re in need of storage, our team can suggest reliable climate-controlled options and handle the pickup and delivery of your items for you.
Tipping is appreciated but never expected. A typical guideline is 15–20% of the total moving cost, or for smaller local moves, $10–$20 per mover. The amount is entirely up to you — we encourage tipping based on the quality of service you receive, and our crews are always grateful for the recognition!
Our West Ashley crews know the area inside and out. Whether it is single family homes or apartment moving, we navigate bridge traffic and school zones with ease, ensuring your move across town is smooth, safe, and efficient.
Already have a rental truck or storage container? Bring in our team of the most reliable movers to do the heavy lifting — we’ll load, unload, or move items wherever you need them. We can also help stage your home to make it shine before a sale.
If your move-out and move-in dates don’t match up, we’ll keep your belongings safe in secure, climate-controlled storage with our moving and storage services. Each item is pad-wrapped for protection, and we never mix inventories, ensuring your possessions stay organized and secure.
Moving to a smaller home or into assisted living? Our caring team assists seniors with sorting, packing, and moving — always with patience, respect, and special attention to cherished belongings.
West Ashley gets its name because it sits west of the Ashley River, separate from the Charleston peninsula. The area is almost its own peninsula, bounded by the Stono and Ashley Rivers.
West Ashley combines suburban convenience with deep history and natural beauty. From riverfront plantations and rail trails to vibrant retail corridors and quiet, tree‑lined streets, it’s a place where you can enjoy both Lowcountry heritage and modern amenities.
Don’t let unwanted items hold up your move. Our West Ashley junk removal team handles everything — from old furniture and appliances to yard debris and renovation waste. We prioritize donating and recycling whenever possible to minimize landfill impact and give items new purpose.
Delivering the best service and a hassle-free moving process with excellent customer care is our top priority. Read what our satisfied customers have shared about their moving experiences.
