Nilson Van and Storage did a wonderful job helping us move from their customer service to the move itself. Karen did a wonderful job through out the consultation and ensuring all our questions were answered in regards to packing. Theresa made sure to follow up all throughout the process, making sure everything was taken care of prior to the crew arriving to even after, which was very much needed in the chaos of moving! And of course Stanley and his crew were amazing! Even after being stuck in traffic with delays they did not waste a single minute getting all of our items on the truck for transit. All of our items arrived in great shape, and the guys made sure everything was placed exactly where we wanted it! I am so glad we went with their company, it made our move hastle free!

We were assigned Nilson for our military international move a few months ago. They moved our household goods and our unaccompanied baggage and did an amazing job. They were very friendly, packed everything with care, and were very thorough with their labeling of the boxes. Our whole house was packed and ready to go within two days! I want to call out Ty specifically, he made the process so much easier than it could have been and was great about answering all of my questions!
Response from the owner 20:05 21 Aug 24
We appreciate you sharing your positive experience, Lauren. We value your opinion and we're thrilled to know your move went smoothly. A sincere thank you for your service, and wishing you all the best in your new surroundings!

Half our experience was fine but when they packed our kitchen up we told them to not pack two cupboards and they did. One those cupboards had our dog's prescription food so we had to go through boxes to find.

We value your insights and appreciate your feedback. We want every customer to have a positive moving experience and our team is reviewing your concerns to make moving better for every customer we serve.

Wow! This was my Wife’s and I first big move using a moving company, and Angie, Ty, and Kayla exceeded every expectation we had. Ty talked me through every part of the move, showed me the truck, and told me exactly how the unpackers should handle our stuff. Kayla took me through all the paperwork and ensured every single item we had was accounted for and tagged with a corresponding number so we can track it all once we get to our unpacking portion. Angie worked incredibly fast and took extra care of every plate and cup in the kitchen to ensure every item was individually wrapped and secured before packing it. All three of these incredible movers never made assumptions about items and asked along the way if we wanted certain things packed… thanks again Ty, Angie, and Kayla- y’all were amazing!

FAQs - Moving Services

At Nilson Van and Storage, we understand that moving can feel overwhelming, and you might have many questions about the process. That’s why we’ve compiled this list of frequently asked questions to address your concerns and provide clear, helpful answers. Whether you’re moving within Columbia, Myrtle Beach, Charleston, Sumter, Savannah, Hilton Head, Beaufort or beyond, these FAQs will guide you through every step of your relocation journey with confidence.

  • What Moving Services Does Nilson Van and Storage Offer?

    Nilson Van and Storage provides comprehensive moving and storage solutions for residential, commercial, military, and international relocations. Services include local and long-distance moving, office and corporate relocations, professional packing and unpacking, warehousing, and short- and long-term storage. Each move is handled by trained professionals using proven processes designed to protect your belongings and keep your relocation on schedule.

  • How Are Moving Estimates Calculated?

    Moving estimates are based on factors such as the size of the move, distance, access conditions, services requested, and timing. All local and intrastate residential moves within South Carolina are non-binding, except for office moves, which may be quoted as a bid. Nilson Van and Storage provides transparent estimates with no hidden fees, so customers understand what to expect before moving day.

  • Are There Any Cancellation Fees If My Plans Change?

    No. Nilson Van and Storage does not charge cancellation fees. This gives customers flexibility if schedules change due to work, housing, or family circumstances, without worrying about financial penalties.

  • Does Nilson Van and Storage Offer Packing And Unpacking Services?

    Yes. Nilson Van and Storage offers professional packing services using high-quality materials and trained crews. On delivery day, the team will unpack items they packed by removing contents from boxes. For local moves, items are not put away in cabinets or closets unless requested, which can be completed for an additional hourly charge.

  • Can Nilson Van and Storage Handle Fragile Or Specialty Items?

    Yes. Nilson Van and Storage has extensive experience moving fragile and high-value items such as antiques, artwork, electronics, and pianos. Proper packing methods, specialized materials, and careful handling procedures are used to reduce risk and ensure items arrive safely at their destination.

  • Do You Offer Storage Services?

    Nilson Van and Storage provides secure short-term and long-term storage solutions for household and commercial goods. Storage is ideal for customers who need flexibility between move-out and move-in dates or who require extra space during renovations, downsizing, or transitions.

  • Is Stored Property Secure?

    Yes. Nilson Van and Storage’s storage facilities are designed to protect customer belongings with controlled access, monitoring, and professional warehouse management practices. Items are inventoried and stored carefully to ensure they remain protected while in storage.

  • Who Is Responsible For Elevators And Parking On Moving Day?

    Customers are responsible for reserving building elevators and parking for move-in or move-out days. In cities such as downtown Charleston, customers may need to coordinate parking permits through the local Department of Transportation. This process is typically easier for the resident or building occupant to manage in advance.

  • What Payment Methods Are Accepted?

    Nilson Van and Storage accepts major credit cards and other approved payment methods. When paying by credit card, a card is required to be placed on hold and is typically processed prior to delivery to ensure payment authorization is complete before unloading.

  • Do You Offer Valuation Coverage For My Belongings?

    Yes. Valuation options are available to provide protection for your belongings during transit or storage. A Nilson Van and Storage representative will explain available valuation levels so you can select the option that best fits your needs and the value of your shipment.

  • When Should I Schedule My Move?

    It is best to schedule your move as early as possible, especially during peak moving seasons such as spring and summer. Weekend local moves are generally charged at an overtime rate, so planning ahead allows for better availability and cost control.
