Top Residential Moving Experts in Austin

Q: How far ahead should I book my residential move?

We recommend booking 3-6 weeks in advance, especially during peak season. If you're in a rush, give us a call—we'll do our best to accommodate you!

Q: Do you offer unpacking services?

Yes! Our team can unpack your belongings and set up your new space so you can enjoy your first night in your new home. Whether it's putting together furniture or organizing your kitchen, we handle it all.

Q: What’s "labor-only moving" and how does it work?

Labor-only moving is for customers who need help with the heavy lifting but already have a truck or other transportation. We provide the crew to load, unload, or rearrange items for you, making the process easier without the full-service move.

Q: Do you offer disassembly and reassembly services?

We do not provide disassembly or reassembly services for furniture. If your move requires these services, we recommend arranging them separately.

Absolutely! We have experience handling large, fragile, or heavy items like pianos, gym equipment, safes, and more. Our team uses specialized equipment to ensure safe transport.

The Bad: A couple of my items were damaged during the move, most importantly one of my nightstands. Unfortunately they were only able to offer a quarter of the price of the nightstand as a refund.
