The crew that loads your truck is the crew that unloads it
A long-distance move out of Charleston lives or dies on one detail that has nothing to do with the sales pitch: does the same crew that packed your North Charleston driveway show up at the other end, or does the shipment change hands somewhere along I-95.
Your shipment doesn’t change trucks
Every long-haul job at Momentum Movers stays on our own trucks with our own drivers, start to finish, no subcontractor picking it up outside Columbia or Savannah. The total is set from your shipment’s actual weight and the mapped mileage before the truck leaves the yard.
Where these trips usually end up
Interstate jobs out of Charleston tend to run north on I-95 toward Raleigh and DC, west on I-26 toward Columbia and on to Atlanta, or up the coast on US-17 toward Myrtle Beach. The city changes, the crew running the route stays the same.
| Destination | Distance | Route | Drive time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Savannah, GA | 110 mi | I-95 south | ~1.75 hrs |
| Columbia, SC | 115 mi | I-26 west | ~1.75 hrs |
| Myrtle Beach, SC | 95 mi | US-17 north | ~2 hrs |
| Charlotte, NC | 205 mi | I-26 to I-77 | ~3.25 hrs |
| Raleigh, NC | 320 mi | I-95 to I-40 | ~5 hrs |
| Atlanta, GA | 300 mi | I-26 to I-20 | ~4.75 hrs |
| Richmond, VA | 440 mi | I-95 north | ~7 hrs |
What one number actually covers
Loading at the yard, the miles on the highway, setup at the destination, and reassembling anything that had to be taken apart for a doorway all sit under a single quoted total.
That figure is built from your shipment’s real weight and the mapped distance, locked in before departure, and it doesn’t move between the first box loaded and the last one delivered.
- Cargo coverage$1,000,000 in coverage applies to every shipment automatically
- Standard payout$0.60 per pound kicks in automatically if anything’s damaged
- Higher coverageFull-value protection available for 1 to 3% of your shipment’s value
- Claim windowRoughly nine months after delivery, per federal rule
If a closing date or a PCS report date moves
Financing drags, closings stall, or new orders push a report date. Odessa Pruitt shifts your shipment into short-term storage at our North Charleston yard when that happens, and holds delivery until the new date is confirmed, at the price you already locked in.
No handoff to a second carrier
A lot of interstate movers sound solid on the phone right up until your shipment lands with whatever carrier had an open truck that week. Momentum Movers doesn’t work that way. Whoever loads your home in North Charleston is who you’ll see again at delivery, in Raleigh, Atlanta, or wherever the job ends.
