Our Moving Services in Apex, NC
Residential Moving
Moving your household is a deeply personal undertaking. Your furniture, your heirlooms, your children’s belongings all make us pieces of your life. Excel’s residential moving team approaches every home move with that understanding. We conduct careful pre-move planning, use high-quality packing materials and furniture pads, and deploy the right equipment (from dollies and lift straps to specialized trucks) to protect your belongings from the moment we lift them to the moment we set them down in your new home.
Whether you’re moving from a two-bedroom apartment in Apex to a larger home in the same zip code, or relocating your family from a sprawling estate to a new city entirely, we tailor our approach to fit your situation. We’re careful with your walls, your floors, and your valuables, and we don’t leave until you’re satisfied with how everything is placed.
Local Moving in Apex
Not all moves are long-distance events. Many Apex residents simply need to get from one neighborhood to another, from Haddon Hall to Salem Village, or from Bella Casa to Horton Farms. Even a local move has real complexity: stairs, narrow hallways, parking restrictions, elevator reservations, fragile items. Our local moving crews are well-versed in Apex’s neighborhoods and understand the on-the-ground realities that can turn a short drive into a long day if not managed properly.
We offer flexible scheduling for local moves, including weekday and weekend availability, and we work efficiently to keep your costs down without cutting corners on care.
Long-Distance Moving
If you’re leaving Apex for another state (or moving from Apex across the country) you need more than a truck and a strong back. Long-distance moves require careful coordination, interstate licensing, GPS-tracked vehicles, and experience managing timelines across hundreds or thousands of miles. Excel Moving & Storage is fully licensed for interstate moves and operates as part of the Allied Van Lines network, giving us the infrastructure to execute long-haul relocations with precision.
We assign a dedicated move coordinator to every long-distance shipment, so you always have a single point of contact who can give you real-time updates and handle any changes along the way.
Commercial and Office Moving
Downtime is money. When your Apex business needs to relocate, you need movers who understand urgency, discretion, and the operational demands of a commercial environment. Excel’s commercial moving team has extensive experience relocating offices, retail spaces, medical facilities, and professional firms throughout the Triangle region.
We work around your schedule (including evenings and weekends) to minimize disruption to your operations. We handle modular furniture disassembly and reassembly, IT equipment, filing systems, reception furniture, and everything else that makes up your workspace. Every item is labeled, inventoried, and placed exactly where it belongs in your new location.
Corporate Relocation
When your company needs to relocate an employee (whether across North Carolina or across the world) Excel Moving & Storage provides comprehensive corporate relocation services that take the burden off both the employer and the transferee. We coordinate directly with HR departments and relocation management companies to streamline the process, and we offer a full suite of services including home surveys, packing, transportation, storage, and destination services.
Our goal is to make the transition as seamless as possible for your employee so they can stay focused on the job, not the logistics of the move.
International Moving
Relocating overseas introduces a new layer of complexity: customs documentation, international freight regulations, overseas shipping containers, and coordination with destination service providers in another country. Excel Moving & Storage, through its Allied Van Lines affiliation, has access to a global network of trusted international moving partners in over 130 countries.
We handle the paperwork, the packing, the containerization, and the customs coordination, so that your international move is as stress-free as any local one.
Specialty Moving
Some items require a level of care and expertise that goes beyond standard moving. Excel’s specialty moving team is trained to handle:
- Grand and upright pianos
- Fine art and antiques
- Large flat-screen televisions and home theater equipment
- Wine collections
- Gun safes and heavy vaults
- Medical and laboratory equipment
- Pool tables and oversized furniture
We use custom crating, specialized blanket wrapping, hydraulic lift equipment, and climate-conscious transport methods to move high-value and uniquely challenging items safely.
Packing Services
Packing is one of the most time-consuming parts of any move, and one of the most stressful. Our professional packing team can handle all of it, or just the parts you’d rather leave to the experts. We offer:
- Full-Service Packing: We pack every room in your home using high-quality materials, including dish barrels for fragile kitchenware, wardrobe boxes for hanging clothes, mattress bags, and custom cartons for electronics and artwork.
- Partial Packing: You handle what you’re comfortable with, and we take care of the rest — whether that’s the kitchen, the garage, or just the breakables.
- Unpacking: We don’t just move your boxes in and walk out the door. Our team can unpack and arrange your belongings in your new home so you’re settled in faster.
- Packing Supplies: If you prefer to pack yourself, we supply professional-grade boxes, tape, bubble wrap, packing paper, and specialty cartons at competitive prices.
Storage Solutions
Life doesn’t always move in a straight line. If there’s a gap between your move-out and move-in dates, if your new home needs renovations before you can fully occupy it, or if you simply need to declutter before listing your current property, Excel’s secure storage facilities are ready to accommodate you.
We offer containerized storage in our clean, climate-controlled Raleigh facility. Your belongings are loaded into individual containers (not co-mingled with other customers’ goods) and stored in a secure warehouse with 24/7 monitoring. When you’re ready, we deliver directly to your new home.
We also offer our De-Clutter Program, designed to help sellers and homeowners stage their spaces by temporarily removing excess furniture and items to create a cleaner, more market-ready environment.

How far in advance should I book movers for my Apex relocation?
We recommend booking your move at least 2–4 weeks in advance for local moves and 4–6 weeks for long-distance relocations. During peak seasons—such as summer, weekends, and end-of-month—it’s best to schedule even earlier to secure your preferred moving date. The sooner you book, the more flexibility you’ll have.
Are there items your movers cannot transport?
Yes, there are certain items we are unable to move for safety and regulatory reasons. These typically include hazardous materials such as gasoline, paint, aerosols, chemicals, propane tanks, and flammable liquids. We also cannot transport perishable food, plants crossing state lines (due to agriculture regulations), or irreplaceable personal items such as jewelry, cash, or important documents.
Do you provide packing supplies and packing services in Apex?
Absolutely. We offer complete packing services, including professional full-service packing, partial packing, and unpacking options. If you prefer to pack yourself, we also supply high-quality boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap, and specialty cartons for items like TVs, dishes, and wardrobes. Our goal is to make your move as easy and organized as possible.
What insurance or valuation coverage options do you offer?
Excel Moving & Storage provides two main types of protection:
Basic Liability Coverage – included at no extra cost and covers items based on weight.
Full Value Protection (FVP) – our recommended option that provides repair, replacement, or reimbursement for damaged items.
During your estimate, our move coordinators will explain each option, so you can choose the level of protection that best fits your needs and budget.
