Lake Waccamaw, NC Movers

The Town of Lake Waccamaw sits on the north shore of Lake Waccamaw in eastern Columbus County. The lake covers about 9,000 acres and is the heart of town life: boating, fishing, Lake Waccamaw State Park, the historic depot built in 1900, and the Take the Lake fitness event every Labor Day weekend. The town also hosts the Gator Festival in the spring and Christmas by the Lake in December. It is a place people choose for the water and the slow pace.

Housing here ranges from lakefront cottages and raised lake homes to older houses in town and manufactured homes on larger lots. Census figures put the typical home value near $306,000 and the median age around 46, with many longtime residents and some retirees. On a lake-area move we plan for narrow roads, steps up to raised front doors, and gravel or sandy driveways that can get soft after rain. Older lake cottages can have tight hallways and doorways, so photos of large furniture help us plan ahead.

Lakefront moves have their own details. Docks, boathouses, and outdoor storage are common, and we ask early whether the house has heavy items like gun safes, workshop tools, or patio sets. We move furniture and household goods, but boats and docks are a separate job, so it helps to have those arranged ahead of time. For heavy pieces like a piano or a hot tub, ask us before booking so we can bring the right gear. Seasonal and second-home moves are common too, so we also do furniture-only jobs and packing for part-time lake houses.

Getting around is easy once you know the roads. Sam Potts Highway runs through the area, and Hallsboro is just down the road for groceries and lunch. Longer trips toward Whiteville, Tabor City, or the coast take a bit of planning, so we schedule these moves for the day and keep you updated by phone. Summer weekends and holidays like Labor Day and the Fourth of July bring lake traffic, so we suggest a weekday if you have the choice. Our long-distance moving team can also take you out of state.

Nearby, we also serve Tabor City, Chadbourn, and Clarendon. Family-owned since 2015, A & M Friendly Movers treats every Lake Waccamaw move like we are moving our own neighbors.
