Moving in Leicester, NC
Leicester spreads across the rural northwest corner of Buncombe County, about 15 to 20 minutes from Asheville out Leicester Highway (NC-63) toward Sandy Mush and the Newfound Mountains. It is farm country and forested ridgeline — Big Sandy Mush Creek, the long valley roads, and the working pastures give Leicester a genuinely rural feel that sets it apart from the closer suburbs. We run NC-63 and the back roads toward Sandy Mush often, so the long gravel drives and the mountain switchbacks out here are familiar to our crew.
How we work Leicester
A lot of the moves are families wanting land and quiet within reach of the city, plus longtime residents shifting within the Sandy Mush and Newfound areas. Rest Easy handles every piece directly — our own trucks, our own uniformed W-2 movers, no contractors. Wesley founded the company in 2015 in Buncombe County so the rural west side would have a mover that reliably shows up, and our crew carries that to the end of every Leicester drive.
Two movers and a truck run $139/hr with pads, dollies, and tools in the rate, and $195/hr adds a third mover for bigger loads or long carries from the road. A 1-bedroom usually lands in the $610–$910 band and a 3-bedroom house $1,740–$2,560. We give the written estimate before the move per North Carolina law, and a $150 deposit secures the date and comes off the total. Our NCUC certificate and US DOT/MC authority stay current for interstate jobs.
Leicester’s narrow valley roads, long private drives, and the switchbacks toward the Newfound ridge make truck size and an experienced driver matter more than in town, so we plan access carefully before move day. Tell us the inventory and where it is headed and we will set a clear plan and a firm price.
