Hired three guys to help us move out of our house. They were early, worked really hard, in fact we had to ask them to take a 15 minute break because they were running around so much. Very professional. Took great care of all of our furniture and artwork. Would highly recommend them to anybody. Thank you so much, Cameron, Walter and Trey you guys are the best.

Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind words! We’re thrilled your move was a success.

Saltwater moved us from Mt. Pleasant to Columbia SC in September 2026. From the very beginning, they came across as professionals who knew what they were doing. I had gotten some other quotes that were lowball but Rusty pointed out that their plan for 1 truck and 2 men was not enough for our size of house. He told me that we would need 2 trucks and 5 men and he was absolutely right- both the trucks were full when they left our house and though he quoted 5 movers, six actually showed up. They were efficient and quick- all of our furniture was wrapped in moving blankets then shrink-wrapped. As a result, there was no breakage or damage to anything. Once at the destination, they placed everything in the correct rooms and assembled every piece of furniture. When they were done, the price was almost exactly as the quoted estimate. Finally, a word about the crew: every one of the movers was pleasant, professional, and very respectful of our possessions. I would absolutely use them again and recommend them to anyone who asks. Thanks guys, to the entire team, for the excellent work!

Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind words! We’re thrilled your move was a success.

I have moved more than 18 times, and Saltwater Moving provided the best moving experience I have ever had. The team was fantastic—professional, efficient, careful and respectful throughout the entire move. Moving can be incredibly stressful, but they made the process smooth and worry-free. I cannot say enough wonderful things about their service and would highly recommend Saltwater Moving to anyone looking for a dependable, professional moving company! Morgan was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was professional, responsive and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. Her excellent communication and attention to detail made everything feel organized and stress-free. She represented Saltwater Moving exceptionally well, and I truly appreciated all of her assistance!

I just used Saltwater Moving last week moving from West Ashley to Ravenel. Kenneth, Jalique, and Walter did an amazing job! I lived on the 3rd floor in an apartment and it was a very hot day, but they were very hardworking and efficient despite the heat! They had a smooth workflow that made everything go faster. They were also very kind and did not complain a single time (living in an apartment for so long I have seen many movers come and go and have heard a lot of negative comments during the moving process from those movers). The price was also very reasonable. I will definitely be recommending them to anybody that I know is moving in the future!

Response from the owner:We’re so pleased to hear you had a positive moving experience. Thank you!
