Moving from Connecticut to South Carolina

Professional movers are recommended for this 800-mile journey to the South! The I-95 corridor is heavily traveled by moving companies, and Charleston/Columbia have good moving services. You should find competitive options for this popular route.

You're in for a major climate improvement! Trading Connecticut's brutal winters and moderate summers for South Carolina's mild winters and hot, humid summers. Think palmetto trees instead of maple trees, and way lower heating bills!

If you want significantly lower costs, Southern charm, and beautiful beaches, South Carolina's fantastic! You'll trade Connecticut's prep school culture for Lowcountry charm and incredible food culture, but gain housing you can actually afford.

Plan about 5-6 weeks total, with professional movers taking 3-4 business days for transport. The I-95 route is efficient and well-serviced, though hurricane season might affect coastal timing.

If moving to coastal areas, definitely factor in hurricane season! Avoid peak months (August-October) for coastal moves. Also, the humidity increase will affect your belongings – climate-controlled transport helps with the transition from Connecticut's drier air.
