Local moving in Austin and the Hill Country
A crew, a padded truck and an hourly rate you can see before you call. Your price has a written ceiling before anything is loaded.
Most local moves are billed by the hour for the crew and truck, plus one flat travel charge. We publish the rates on the pricing page so you can do the math yourself before you talk to anyone.
Before a single box goes on the truck you get a written not-to-exceed quote. Texas requires a written estimate before loading; we make ours a ceiling, so a slow day is our problem, not yours.
Included
- Furniture pads and stretch wrap on every piece
- Basic disassembly and reassembly of beds and tables
- Floor and doorway protection where needed
- Wardrobe boxes for hanging clothes on move day
- Placement of furniture room by room at the new place
Good to know
- Measure the big pieces and the new doorways if you are unsure something fits.
- Tell us about stairs, elevators and long walks from the truck; they change the time more than the furniture does.
- End of month and Saturdays book up first. Midweek mornings are the easiest dates to get.
What it costs
Plus one flat $99 travel charge to bring the truck to you inside the Austin area. Lake Travis, Highland Lakes and other Hill Country addresses get their travel charge written into the quote before you book.
