Apartment, condo and North Shore loft moving across Greater Chattanooga
Apartment moves are a different animal from a Hixson-ranch job, and Elite Moving sizes the crew, the truck and the schedule accordingly. We have been doing apartment runs across North Chattanooga, the North Shore lofts, East Ridge, Red Bank and the newer East Brainerd complexes since 2011, and most leasing offices in the metro already have our COI format on file.
Stairs, elevators and the things that eat the clock
An apartment move is not won on the truck — it’s won on the landing. Tight stairwells, narrow door jambs, fire-rated elevator pads, the 4-foot turn at the top of the stairs into a Hixson 2-bed: that is where a clean move stays clean and a sloppy one starts hitting drywall.
- Door-jamb and banister wrap before the first box leaves the unit.
- Mattress bags on every mattress so leaning against an elevator wall does no harm.
- Sectional seams shrink-wrapped, cushions bagged, so nothing rubs off in the truck.
- Wardrobe boxes loaned for the closet so dry-cleaning stays on hangers.
Apartment pricing
| Apartment size | Crew | Hourly | Typical flat rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 movers + truck | $125/hr | $385 – $545 |

| 2-bedroom | 3 movers + truck | $175/hr | $845 – $1,195 |
Pads, dollies and shrink-wrap are included, not added at the end. We carry our own cargo and liability insurance, hold a Tennessee household-goods movers license plus US DOT and MC authority on file, and our W-2 crew wears the Elite Moving shirt — never day labor. If your apartment is the first step before a bigger jump, our short-term storage bridges the gap between leases; for the full neighborhood list see Red Bank movers and the rest of our service area pages.
