“They were very prompt, courteous, and handled the furniture with great care. They protected all the furniture, and Michael and Mojo were very courteous, and extremely helpful.This move was on Oct 20th a very humid day. They worked very quickly and diligently. We will use them again. We highly recommend this company.”
Wade Bishop here, running the crews at Roy Bishop House Movers. Folks routinely underrate what packing takes. The cupboards in one kitchen can eat up two full days you never budgeted. So we treat boxing as its own standalone job rather than bolting it onto truck day. Henry County families have trusted us with that job since 2012.
The supplies are ours to cover
Wardrobe cartons go to the closets, clean unprinted paper wraps the glassware, and boxes and tape handle the rest — not one piece of it billed on the side. You skip the store run, and we skip padding the invoice with materials. Jared Meeks leads the fragile and heavy pieces and builds crates for anything a stock box won’t hold. A standard pack covers:
- Kitchens and pantries, from the stemware down to the spice rack
- Art, mirrors, china, and framed pieces, crated to fit each one
- Wardrobes hung on rails so the clothes stay on their hangers
- Books, records, and the odd built-in no ready-made carton was cut for

Hire us for the whole house or a lone room — mark the china cabinet and the pantry, keep the bedrooms to yourself, and we quote only what you point out. The materials come at no extra charge, and cargo coverage reaching $1,000,000 takes hold the moment your things pass into our hands.
Pollen wrapping and red-clay floors
Packing in Georgia carries two local quirks. Through spring, Jared wraps open pieces before they head out so the yellow pollen never reaches the fabric. And once rain turns a driveway to red mud, his crew rolls out floor runners and door protection coming and going — no red streaks dragged across your carpet. Older Stockbridge homes tuck away heirloom glass and built-ins; the newer subdivision houses are all square footage. A single crew handles either kind, sketching the plan as we walk the rooms with you.
Pack one day, load the next
The boxing doesn’t have to happen on move morning. A lot of households put us in on a Thursday evening so truck day itself runs relaxed, and that midweek session adds nothing to the total. With everything sealed, local moving covers the cross-town stretch and long-distance moving takes the run out of town. Cartons need somewhere to sit? Short-term storage keeps guard over them until the new place is set. For a figure, work the numbers through the moving calculator.
