Moving Process with Austin to Houston Movers

Googling “Austin to Houston movers” for a stress-free 165-mile transition down TX-71 and I-10? Our fully licensed crews wrap, scan, and GPS-track every item, finishing most household moves the same day so you can trade Hill Country sunsets for Bayou City skylines without missing a beat.

Step 1 — Plan Ahead

Start purging closets two weeks out, then color-code boxes by room and priority. Rather skip the packing marathon? Reserve our full-service packers; we use double-wall cartons and heat-resistant cushioning that survive a July haul on I-10.

  1. Reserve curb space in Austin. Downtown streets require a Right-of-Way Parking permit—apply at least three business days before loading via the City of Austin ROW portal.
  2. Need more than a curb lane? Large PODs or trailers may trigger a Temporary Use of Right-of-Way (TURP) permit—bond and insurance required.
  3. Plan Houston unloading. Residential blocks limit large vehicles to two hours; snag a Commercial Vehicle Loading Zone (CVLZ) permit if you need longer curb time.
  4. Avoid tickets overnight. Trucks taller than eight feet may not park on Houston streets for more than two hours—budget for a nearby lot if unloading runs late.
  5. Grab our free moving checklist to keep every deadline clear.

Step 2 — Moving-Day Precision

On the big day, our DOT-certified crew pad-wraps furniture, shrink-wraps upholstery, and scans each item into a digital inventory before loading 26-ft air-ride trucks. The live GPS-tracking app lets you follow the rig from your Austin driveway to your Houston driveway in real time.

Step 3 — After the Drive

At your Houston address we reassemble beds, stage boxes by room, and can arrange climate-controlled storage if you’re still house-hunting. Add unpacking service and spend your first evening sampling Tex-Mex on Washington Avenue instead of digging for cookware.
