Marietta, GA → South Fulton, GA · Local move
About 26 road miles heading south. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,110–$1,650, delivery in 0–1 days, 801 carriers on the Marietta side and 1,228 in South Fulton.
Moving from Marietta to South Fulton is a local move of roughly 26 road miles, heading south within Georgia.
Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 49 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,110 and $1,650, before packing or storage.
On the Marietta side there are 801 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (372 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,228 around South Fulton (556 interstate). For an in-state move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in South Fulton.
Marietta has a population of about 62,000 and South Fulton about 112,820. Marietta is considerably denser (2,594 people per square mile versus 1,261), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.
No. Because both Marietta and South Fulton are in Georgia, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $180 to $250 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,040 to $1,530. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.
Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Marietta–South Fulton corridor.
