The Palmetto State is also home to many thriving cities, which are hotspots for young professionals and older adults alike. Historic charm is found in many of the cities and small towns throughout the state, including cobblestone streets, vibrant colors and unique building details.

South Carolina is a unique state in that it boasts a high quality of life, but a low cost of living. While it sounds too good to be true, that’s the reality! Home prices in South Carolina are less expensive than the national average. In general, your dollar will go further in South Carolina than in Napa Valley.

The lifestyle in South Carolina is much slower-paced than you’ll find in California. Many of the residents of the state prioritize time together and good conversations over anything else.

A Look at Some of the Best Cities in South Carolina

Charleston: Charleston is home to an active seaport and military base, drawing a lot of people to the city who work there. Technology and healthcare are also booming industries in Charleston. The livability in the city makes it a draw for young professionals. The picturesque College of Charleston campus is a reflection of the rest of the city – cobblestone roads, historical buildings and bike-friendly.

Columbia: With a distinct collegiate atmosphere, Columbia is the home to the University of South Carolina. The lively university gives way to a thriving city with plenty of cultural activities happening year-round.

Greenville: Greenville is on the smaller side but is growing. The city has beautiful scenery thanks to Falls Park and the Reedy River and is home to the Greenville County Museum of Art and Furman University.

We had a great experience with Turner Moving & Storage. Everyone we dealt with, our “move team”, was wonderful to work with. They were responsive,... energetic, patient and flexible. Moving is a stressful time of life and they helped make it easy for us. Our driver, CJ, was the best! He was a pleasure to work with on both ends of the move. Thanks to everyone at Turner who helped keep us sane!read more

Going the extra mile to do the right thing doesn't even begin to explain how exceptional these folks are.I was contacted by them approximately 7... months after my dear uncle passed away.Unbeknownst to the family, my uncle had about a half dozen small storage units rented with Turner Moving & Storage.They could have simply written my uncle off for non payment and sold the items in the lockers for pennies and that would have been the end of it. They could have said it's just business and moved on.Then we would have lost countless family photos and memories.Instead they spent months trying to track down my uncle, or his next of kin... and that ended up being me.I can't give them enough stars for thinking outside the box and about the people and circumstances behind their business. Special thanks to Amanda for being so thoughtful and helpful. Northern California loves Turner Moving & Storage.read more

Turner M&S has moved me multiple times in the last 30 plus years. They have always made the moves as easy as possible. The same was true with my... last move a week ago. All contacts with their employees were very positive. On moving day, the movers arrived a bit early and all were personable and professional. The move out was done rapidly. The move in was much more complicated. It involved the third floor and relatively narrow stair wells. They managed to get everything in safely and damage free while remaining positive in attitude. Their efforts were greatly appreciated. If possible, I would always userTurner for any moving needs!read more

We sold our home of 44 years in Napa to move near family in Virginia. Our new home is under construction so Turner is storing our belongings until... they arrange shipment across country.Everyone at Turner, from the estimator, through the office team to the packing/moving team were extremely professional and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed working with the Turner team and highly recommend them.Our new Virginia home has now been completed and our belongings delivered after they were stored for 6 months to Richmond Virginia by their driver Pete. He was as friendly and professional as the rest of the Turner team. They made a difficult cross-country move much easier!read more

The whole procss with Turner Moving & Storage has been smooth as silk! First an appraiser came to the house to see what we would be moving and a date... was scheduled. Because our new home was not yet ready to move into, Turner Moving worked with us to change our plan and arranged to store our items until a later date.On moving day, Brandon, Russ, Juan and Abraham arrived on time with the moving vans. They walked through the house with me for an overview on what to pack and what not to pack, then they got busy! It was amazing to watch them work! They were all so pleasant and, if they were unsure about something, they came to me and asked for verification, something that I greatly appreciated!The first day was packing boxes. The next day the trucks were loaded. The guys went the extra mile by loading up the outdoor furniture in the back of the truck and delivering it to the new house where they carried it UP all the stairs and placed it around the pool! In my opinion they went above and beyond and they were so wonderful to work with!Everyone was just wonderful to work with and incredibly responsive, (Joel who came out to do the estimate, Shalyn who handles the office and communication and all the movers), and I am so happy that we chose Turner Moving and Storage to handle our move!read more

Turner Moving is terrific! From the first phone call to the actual move, they were right there with us at each step. Amanda, Joel and the team are great. I HIGHLY recommend!

Turner Moving fulfilled all my expectations. The move went as scheduled with no issues. Their local team and driver are the best, with the four men loading the truck accomplishing the task in less than 5 hours. Nothing was damaged, broken or lost. From the estimators visit, to the office staff, to the driver, everyone worked together and checked on us every step of the way to guarantee success. After reading reviews and not finding a single negative one, I knew I had found the right company and did not look any further. We moved from California to Michigan and so it was a costly move, but one I felt was fairly priced.

Turner moving and storage is a helpful, honest, and trustworthy company. They recently helped us move from the San Francisco Bay Area, California, to north central, Florida. They were very helpful in every step of the moving process. Their intake worker Amanda was very helpful as well as their driver, JC.
