Best Oak Island, NC Moving Company
Oak Island is one of the largest beach towns in Brunswick County, with a big year-round population, the Oak Island Pier, and easy access to Southport. It is about 30 miles from our Calabash base, and we handle moves here for full-time residents, military families, and second-home owners.
Oak Island has two bridges, the high-rise G.V. Barbee Sr. Bridge and the Swain’s Cut Bridge, and we pick the right route based on your address and the time of day. Many homes are raised on pilings with outdoor stairs, and the island’s long stretch of beach road means some deliveries take extra drive time. We plan all of that into your quote so there are no surprises.
You will find everything here from older cottages and canal-front homes to new builds and condos. We handle packing, heavy furniture, and delivery for every type, and we are happy to help rental owners swap out furnished sets between seasons.
Oak Island has a real hometown feel, with a busy summer season and a close community the rest of the year. The pier, the beach access points along Beach Drive, and nearby Southport’s waterfront make it a place people move to and never want to leave. We help make that first day in your new home a good one.
We also serve nearby Holden Beach, Bolivia, and Supply, plus the rest of Brunswick County. Family-owned since 2019, A & M Friendly Movers brings a careful, experienced crew to every Oak Island move. Our mission is simple: quality, professional service at a fair price. Home is where the heart is, and moving is where it starts. Call 910-758-0081 for your free quote.

What Shapes Your Oak Island Move Cost
No surprises. Here is exactly what goes into your quote, so you can plan with confidence.

Distance
Across town, across Brunswick County, or out of state. Local moves are hourly; long-distance moves are priced upfront.
Access
Oak Island has two bridges (the G.V. Barbee Sr. Bridge and Swain's Cut Bridge), and many homes sit on pilings with stairs, so summer traffic and carrying time add to move time.

Packing, storage, furniture assembly, and heavy items like pianos and safes.
