Best Atlantic Beach, SC Moving Company
Atlantic Beach is a small, historic oceanfront town tucked between the neighborhoods of North Myrtle Beach, about 15 miles north of Myrtle Beach. Known for generations as the Black Pearl of the Grand Strand, it has deep cultural roots and a close-knit community.
Homes here are mostly small oceanfront and near-ocean cottages, older beach houses, and a few condos. Many are raised with outdoor stairs, lots are tight, and streets are narrow, so we plan truck size and placement ahead of time. During big events and summer weekends, traffic along Ocean Boulevard and US-17 fills up fast, so we steer moves toward weekdays and early mornings.
We help homeowners, families passing down beach houses, and investors furnishing rentals. Whether you are moving in full time or clearing out a family property, our crew treats it with care.
Residents love the quiet stretch of beach, the history, and being minutes from North Myrtle Beach shopping and dining. It is a special place, and we are glad to help families call it home.
Many properties here have been in the same family for decades, and moving out of one can be emotional. We go at your pace, set aside items you want to keep, donate, or pass on, and treat every piece with respect.
From Atlantic Beach we also serve North Myrtle Beach, Little River, and Longs. Family-owned since 2015, A & M Friendly Movers is Carolina Strong. 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 a free quote.

“Excellent experience! We have moved 11 times and once overseas and A&M is in the top two moves! They communicate well and there are no curveballs. Chris, Zack & “Ox” were hard working, courteous and professional. They moved us quickly and took great care with our property. When initially speaking with Matt, he realized I was a Veteran and he immediately offered a Veteran’s discount. I would highly recommend A&M Friendly Movers because they live their name!”

Moving in Atlantic Beach: Local Tips From Our Crew
Parking, trash pickup, traffic and building rules can make or break moving day in Atlantic Beach. Here’s what we plan around.
Monday trash pickup
Town trash is collected every Monday. Each household gets one container from the town, and property owners can buy more through GFL.
Recycle near Community Center
The town’s recycling dumpster is by the Community Center on 32nd Avenue South. It takes paper, cardboard, glass, aluminum, cans and plastics, so flattened moving boxes can go there.
Avoid Memorial Day weekend
The Atlantic Beach Bikefest motorcycle rally is held every Memorial Day weekend, with parties and live music all weekend long.
Expect heavy Bikefest traffic
Black Bike Week has been reported to draw more than 400,000 people to the area. If you can, schedule your move for another week.
County centers not allowed
Atlantic Beach is an incorporated town, so residents can’t use the county recycling centers, which are only for unincorporated residents. Use the town’s pickup and dumpster.
What Shapes Your Atlantic Beach Move Cost
No surprises. Here is exactly what goes into your quote, so you can plan with confidence.
Home Size
How many rooms and how much furniture. A condo and a four-bedroom house are very different jobs.
Distance
Across town, across Horry County, or out of state. Local moves are hourly; long-distance moves are priced upfront.
Access
Streets are narrow and parking is tight near the beach, and the town is very crowded during the Memorial Day weekend bike festival, so timing matters.
Add-Ons
Packing, storage, furniture assembly, and heavy items like pianos and safes.
