Long-Distance and Cross-Country Moves
Start planning your long-distance and cross-country moves as far ahead as 6 months before your move date. This is enough time to cross all Ts and dot all Is associated with your commercial move.
Commercial moves are considered ‘long-distance’ when they exceed a 50-mile radius from the starting point. Long-distance moves can occur within the same state but usually end up crossing state lines. Moving across the country is considered a cross-country move.
Long-distance moves increase in price with distance. Save money on long-distance moves when you lighten your moving load. The size of your move plays a major role in how much your move costs. Keep it as light as possible, even if that means you’ll need to get new furniture or equipment at the new location.

Frequently Asked Questions
Columbia Commercial Movers handle office relocations, retail moves, warehouse transfers, and light industrial moves. Services typically include loading, transportation, basic furniture disassembly, and placement at delivery. Final scope is influenced by business size, number of movers, packing needs, stairs or elevators, long-carry distances, and parking access. Downtown Columbia properties often require advance scheduling for loading zones and restricted move-in windows, which are planned through a professional commercial moving service.
Hiring Columbia Commercial Movers generally costs $1,200–$4,500+ for local business moves. Pricing is driven by office square footage, crew size, packing labor, specialty items such as safes or servers, and building access limitations. Traffic near I-26, I-77, and central business districts can affect total hours. Larger relocations are often quoted as flat-rate projects through established moving services.
Most local projects handled by Columbia Commercial Movers are completed in 1–2 days, while mid-size to large offices may require 3–5 days with staged delivery. Timelines depend on move size, crew count, packing scope, elevator scheduling, and dock availability. Businesses relocating across state lines should expect longer delivery windows when using an interstate moving service regulated by FMCSA.
Yes. Columbia Commercial Movers regularly move desks, cubicles, conference tables, filing systems, and standard IT equipment. Crews manage disassembly, protective padding, labeling, and coordinated reassembly as needed. Complexity increases with modular furniture systems, structured cabling, floor protection rules, and freight elevator reservations, which are common in Columbia’s medical, government, and corporate buildings.
Many Columbia Commercial Movers offer evening and weekend moves to reduce operational downtime. After-hours scheduling may include higher labor rates, security staffing requirements, and stricter building controls. Availability depends on property management approval, noise restrictions, and parking permits. Businesses with tight schedules often coordinate these moves through experienced office moving companies familiar with local regulations.
Commercial moves within the Columbia metro area are considered local, while longer moves within South Carolina are intrastate. Any relocation crossing state lines becomes interstate and must follow FMCSA regulations. This classification affects pricing structure, documentation, valuation coverage, and delivery timelines, making it critical for businesses planning multi-state expansions.
