Lock my flat Ballantyne rate

A single written figure, no hourly meter — takes about a minute to kick off.

We use what you send only to price the job — it stays with our office, never sold or spammed.

The process

Three steps from quote to keys

1

Tell us the basics

Both ZIPs, the date and how big the home is — a minute to send, and you owe nothing for it.

2

Get it in writing

We send back one binding flat figure — the meter never runs on our crew while they work.

3

We show up and load

Our uniformed Ballantyne crew arrives on the window and carries the whole job, door to door.

Straight pricing

What goes into your written rate

Each of these gets sized up before we quote and baked into the flat figure — so the number stays put, whether we’re working a Ballantyne cul-de-sac or a new build down in Fort Mill.

01The volume of the moveHow full the truck rides sets the crew size — a Ballantyne Village condo and a five-bedroom Weddington estate land far apart.
02Driveways, stairs & entryLong estate driveways, switchback staircases and three-car-garage approaches all add hands and minutes.
03Mileage & the haulA hop across South Charlotte or a run down I-77 over the state line — the distance and fuel are part of it.
04Packing & suppliesPack the boxes yourself or hand us the full estate to crate — either way, that choice shows up in the rate.
05When you bookMonth-end and Saturdays go first; a midweek slot usually frees up more room on the board and a gentler number.
06Oversized & specialty itemsA grand piano, a gun safe or a slate pool table calls for extra rigging and a couple more movers on the truck.
Our gear

What rides on every truck

Wide-plank floors, narrow estate doorways and red Carolina clay tracked off the ramp — the kit to guard your floors, walls and fragile pieces comes off the truck before the first box ever does.

Quilted moving blankets

Every dresser, table and headboard gets a thick padded blanket cinched around it before it ever leaves the room.

Shrink-wrap & stretch film

Tight film locks drawers shut and keeps upholstery clean, sealed against pollen, clay and weather the whole haul.

Floor & doorway protection

Floor runners and padded jamb guards go down first, so hardwood, tile and trim never take a scuff on the way out.

Custom crating

Mirrors, glass tops, framed art and TVs go into boxes we build to size, with the corners boxed in and braced.

Disassembly & reassembly

Bed frames, sectionals and big tables come apart for the ride and go back together, hardware and all, at the new place.

Straps, dollies & lifts

Rated tie-downs and the right dolly or ramp for a long driveway, a basement haul or a heavy load — we bring it all.

On move day

How the day runs with Marvin's United Movers

Early that morning

A heads-up call

We ring you first thing with a narrow arrival window, so you’re never left watching the driveway, wondering when we’ll roll in.

Walking in

A room-by-room look

The lead chief tours the home with you, tags everything that loads, flags the tricky carries and tight turns, and sets the order of work.

Setting up

Pad, film & cover

Pieces get blanketed and shrink-wrapped, floor runners go down across the path, and the door jambs get padded before anything moves.

Loading the truck

Stacked to ride steady

Weight sits low and tight, every piece strapped to the wall, so nothing shifts on the drive from the old place to the new one.

On the road

Our own crew, our own truck

The crew that loaded you stays with the truck the whole way — GPS-tracked, never handed off to a stranger or a second carrier.

At the new address

Carried in & placed

Boxes land in the right rooms, furniture goes exactly where you point, and anything we took apart gets rebuilt on the spot.

Wrapping up

One last walk-through

We circle the home with you a final time and don’t clock out until every last piece is sitting right where you want it.

Marvin Caldwell, owner of Marvin's United Movers
From the owner

I’m Marvin — and it’s my name on the truck

I’m Marvin Caldwell, and Marvin's United Movers is mine. I came up around South Charlotte and ran warehouse and freight logistics across the Piedmont for years before I started this crew in 2012 on one simple rule: the flat price goes in writing before the truck ever rolls. I still build the truck board every morning, and the movers who knock on your door are W-2, background-checked and on our own payroll — not day labor, not subcontracted out.

  • Owner-operated in Ballantyne since 2012
  • 20 uniformed, background-checked W-2 movers
  • The crew that quotes you is the crew that loads you

Credentials

Properly licensed, bonded & insured

No here-today outfit. Here’s every credential standing behind our South Charlotte trucks, spelled out plain.

NCUC household-goods certificateCertified by the North Carolina Utilities Commission to haul household goods anywhere across the state, on the books and above board.
US DOT & MC authorityActive federal authority for interstate work — the runs over the SC line and beyond are driven by our own crew, not farmed out.
Up to $1,000,000 cargo coverageThat level of cargo protection travels with every shipment, and you can add full-value valuation whenever you’d like.
Workers’ comp & liabilityEvery mover on your job is covered, so if anyone’s hurt working in your home, that’s on our policy and never on you.

Want to see the certificates? Just ask your Marvin's United Movers office and we’ll send the licensing and insurance paperwork over.

Our service map

Covering Ballantyne & the rest of Greater Charlotte

From Ballantyne and SouthPark out along the I-485 loop through Pineville, Matthews and Mint Hill, up to Marvin and Weddington, and down I-77 into Fort Mill and Tega Cay — find your area below, or just call and ask.

Long-distance

Routes we run out of Ballantyne

Down I-85 to Atlanta, up I-77 toward the mountains, or out toward the coast and the Northeast — every mile is driven by our own crew, GPS-tracked door to door, under federal interstate authority we carry in-house.

Good to know

What Ballantyne customers ask before they book

Are you a moving company?
Yes — Marvin’s United Movers is a fully licensed and insured Greater Charlotte moving company running our own trucks and uniformed crews, with an NCUC household-goods certificate and US DOT and MC authority. Coverage rides with every load, up to $1,000,000 per shipment.
Will the price on move day match the quote?
It will, because we put the flat rate in writing before a single box gets loaded. Walk us through your inventory, the driveways and stairs at both addresses, and the haul, and that written figure is what you settle — no clock ticking up while a crew works a Ballantyne estate.
Are the long driveways and estate stairs around Ballantyne a problem?
Not for us — we run those gated golf-community estates and big-lot homes in Marvin and Weddington constantly. Three-car-garage approaches, switchback staircases and bonus-room hauls all get a worked-out plan, the right dollies and ramp boards, never a wing-it.
Do you cover Pineville, Matthews, Mint Hill and over the line into Fort Mill?
Regularly. Those older brick ranches across South Charlotte and the new builds down in Fort Mill and Tega Cay, SC mean basements, attics and packed garages — we size the crew to the square footage rather than shaving hours off the bid.
Who drives an interstate move — your people or someone else?
Always our own crew — we hold the federal interstate authority ourselves and never hand your shipment off. The movers who pad and load in Ballantyne are the same faces who run I-77 or I-85 and unload at the far end, with the truck GPS-tracked the whole way.
