a single day, 41 room job

★★★★★

“We are a 100+ year old mattress manufacturer from Charleston, SC. Trust is a big part of why people and boutique hotels buy our mattresses. That’s why on hotel installs, I only use companies that I can trust. This is the second time I’ve used undergrads on a boutique hotel install and they did not disappoint. This one was a single day, 41 room job. Zachary, Tim, Christopher, Jalen, Daniel, Alejandro, Nazuri, and Ethan all arrived on time and ready to work. Any complication we ran into was smoothed out. They worked efficiently, and the veteran guys showed great leadership and coordination. Won’t be the last time that Southern Lady Mattresses uses undergrads in Clemson!”

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked about Salem moves

How much does it cost to move in Salem?

Every move is priced by the hour. The rate is locked before we start, with no stair fees, fuel surcharges, or hidden add-ons. Two movers run $112 per hour, and most moves run $200–$350 total for a 2-person crew over 2 to 3 hours. Larger homes that need a third mover or more hours run higher, with the rate locked before we start. Truck rental is separate if you need one. If we finish early, you pay less.

Do I need to provide a truck?

We're labor-only movers. You rent the truck from U-Haul, Penske, or Budget. We handle all the loading, unloading, and heavy lifting. We'll tell you the exact size to get and can book it for you if you want.

What's the Show-Up Guarantee?

We're confident enough in our show rate to put $50 behind every booking. We've completed 214+ moves in the Clemson area. If a mover arrives 30 minutes after the scheduled start, let us know and we'll knock $50 off your final bill.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Undergrads is a fully licensed and insured moving company in every market we serve, including Salem. Every move includes $1,000 in damage protection. If you're moving into a high-rise or building that requires a Certificate of Insurance (COI), contact us. We handle COI requests before move day.

What neighborhoods in Salem do you serve?

We serve all areas of Salem including Downtown Salem, Lake Keowee, Highway 130 corridor, Devil's Fork area, and more. If you're anywhere in the Salem metro area, we can likely help. Call (864) 900-5311 if you're unsure.

Tell us your home size and we'll name the truck to reserve, and our crew meets you at your door.

About 39 minutes (20 miles) from central Clemson without traffic. Salem is part of our Clemson service area, so the same crews cover both, at the same hourly rate, locked before we start.
