House & Whole-Home Moves

Residential Movers for Asheville Homes

Moving a whole household is a different animal from shifting a few rooms, and the houses around here make it more so. A 1920s home in Grove Park has narrow doorways and a staircase that turns twice. A new build out in Arden or Fletcher has the square footage but a long, sloped driveway. Rest Easy Moving handles full-house residential moves across Asheville and the surrounding towns with our own uniformed crews and eight trucks, and we’ve been reading these floor plans since 2015. Wesley grew up in Buncombe County, so the quirks of an old mountain house aren’t a surprise to anyone on the truck.

From the first room to the last box

We start with a walkthrough and a written estimate — required under North Carolina law and honestly the best way for you to plan the budget. From there we pad and wrap the furniture, protect the floors and door frames on the way out, and load the truck so nothing shifts on the winding drive to the new place. For a typical move we run a 2- or 3-mover crew; bigger homes in Biltmore Forest or out toward Mills River get the larger crew so the day doesn’t stretch into the evening.

Flat-rate bands give you a clear picture before move day. A two-bedroom usually lands between $1,030 and $1,540, a three-bedroom between $1,740 and $2,560, and a four-bedroom house between $2,480 and $3,680, depending on access and inventory. Prefer to pay by the hour? That’s $139 for the 2-mover crew or $195 for three movers.

  • Floor runners and door-jamb padding to keep an older home’s trim intact
  • Careful handling of china cabinets, armoires, and the heavy case goods common in WNC craftsman homes
  • Crew sized to the house so a four-bedroom move doesn’t run past dark
  • Reassembly of beds, dining tables, and sectionals once they’re placed where you want them

Your date is secured with a $150 deposit that comes off the total. Standard coverage is $0.60 a pound, with full-value protection available. Ready to move the whole house? Call (888) 711-4778.

What Asheville Customers Say Once It’s Done

★★★★★

“Our Five Points street is a one-way with cars parked tight on both sides, and I genuinely did not know how a truck would even fit. The crew threw out cones, talked to the neighbor about moving one car, and made it work without a single scratch on anything. They padded the doorframes on both ends. Final cost landed right inside the 2-bedroom flat-rate band they gave me when I booked. No upselling, no padding the hours.”

“Hired them just for loading labor into my own rental truck, $139/hr, no equipment minimum which I appreciated. Two guys packed that 26-footer like a puzzle and nothing shifted on my drive to Tennessee. One small scuff on a dresser corner, which the lead pointed out himself before I even noticed. Honest about it. Solid crew.”

“We have an upright that came down from my grandmother and it sat in our Grove Park house for years because no one would touch it. Rest Easy quoted the specialty rate starting at $365, sent guys with the proper straps and a piano dolly, and walked it down the front steps and into the new place without a thud. They were honest that the curve in our hallway would be the tricky part, and they were right, but they took their time and got it through. It plays the same as it did, no new buzz or rattle. I will use them for the whole-house move next spring.”

Service FAQ

Our house in Grove Park is from the 1920s with tight doorways. Can you get a sofa through?
Almost always. Older Asheville homes have narrow frames and turning staircases, and our crew handles them every week. We pad the jambs, hoist or pivot the bigger pieces, and if something truly won't fit a doorway we'll talk through a window or balcony option before the day.
We're moving into new construction out in Arden. Anything different about that?
Mainly the driveway and the finish work. New builds in Arden and Fletcher often have long sloped drives, so we position the truck for a safe carry, and we're careful with fresh paint and new flooring. The square footage is easy; protecting a brand-new house is where the attention goes.
How early should I lock in a full-house move?
Two to three weeks is comfortable for most homes, and more in the fall. October books up because of leaf-season demand and traffic. The $150 deposit holds your exact date, and it comes off the final bill, so there's no reason to wait if you know your day.
Do you bring enough people for a four-bedroom, or does it drag on all day?
We size the crew to the home. A four-bedroom in Biltmore Forest gets a three-mover crew, sometimes more, specifically so the load and unload finish at a reasonable hour. We'd rather staff it right than have two movers grinding until midnight.
