About Charlotte, N.C.

Charlotte is nicknamed the “Queen’s City” in honor of Queen Charlotte, the wife of King George III at the time the city was founded in 1750. About 50 years later the city became famous for being the location of the first gold rush in the United States. While people no longer move here with the hope of finding gold, it’s still easy to see why so many of our customers have relocated to Charlotte, one of the fastest growing cities in the United States.

Whether you’re a sports fan, foodie, culture enthusiast, outdoor adventurer, or just looking for family friendly fun – Charlotte has something for you. From the NASCAR Hall of Fame to the downtown stadiums of the Charlotte Hornets, Carolina Panthers, and Charlotte Knights—there is no shortage of entertainment for local sports fans. Professionals and local college students can enjoy the numerous breweries and live music venues. Other notable attractions include: the Charlotte Ballet, Discovery Place Children’s museum, Carowinds Amusement Park, and the U.S. National Whitewater Center—which features the largest man-made whitewater river in the world.

Although we’ve won many awards, we’re especially proud to be named one of Charlotte’s best moving companies and one of Charlotte’s Healthiest Employers! Whether you’re moving across town, or across the country Gentle Giant is your trusted hometown Charlotte mover. When it comes to the perfect, stress-free move, we really do hit it out of the park.

Bob grew up in Rhode Island, spent winters in Hopkinton, MA and summers on Prudence Island. But he has called Charlotte, NC home since 2006. This is the year he was promoted to help manage Gentle Giant's burgeoning Charlotte presence.

In college, Bob was actively involved in community development. He traveled across the country working on Habitat for Humanity projects and spent a summer in Guatemala on an economic development team. The group was asked to create a low-cost feed system for livestock that functioned in conjunction with the village farm store, which they were also helping to build.

Bob attended the University of Rhode Island, where he was an avid volleyball player. He even played semi-pro beach volleyball doubles. When Bob isn't busy at work, he loves to play guitar, record music, paint, draw and spend time at the beach with his wife and children.

Our move was stress free! Andrew, Thomas, Daniel and Santiago were great, I hope same team can move us when our house is ready. Everything is carefully packed and wrapped for storage. Everyone is polite and easy to work with. I would highly recommend Gentle Giant for your next move.

My crew was phenomenal today. Joe, Jevon, Talon, and Michael were great, incredibly quick, professional, and so nice. They made moving less terrible. This is my third move with Gentle Giant and I will definitely use them anytime I move.

Seamless experience starting with initial inquiry through project completion. All three people I dealt with (Dominic, Rachel, Houston) were professional and straight forward. Furniture handled with due care. No upselling or other shenanigans. Final bill came in at lowest end of initial estimate. Quite pleased with their services.

A great team of gentle giants that carefully packed and delivered. They were very professional and helpful - always ready to perform an extra task not required by contract.

Christian, and his crew packed us and delivered. In both cases they did a fantastic job. I feel that we received the very best care and efficiency. The move was easy!

We had a wonderful experience and to say this was an extraordinary move is to say the least. We sell commercial grade laser engraver machines. From my initial call with Andrew Hashway, to Rachel confirming the move to Bob getting in touch with me first thing Monday morning after alerting everyone the move wouldn't happen was phenomenal! Our laser ended up getting stuck at the airport, then come to find out it was at the hotel the entire time and it was our other pallet for our tradeshow that wasn't delivered on time. The whole team, including the moving crew, was amazing! We will refer our customers to you all and use you again in the future!

These Gentle Giants were wonderful. They did not smell of cigarettes, BO, or anything offensive. They began moving as soon as they got there. They knew what their job was and did not waste time. They worked as a team. They handled everything with care. I am sure if I sat here long enough, I could find more positive things to say about them. Bluestar was there to finish packing and the two companies communicated well.
