Prices and Boerne rules checked

Move & Care moves Boerne homes by the hour, with two movers and a truck from $139 to $179 and bigger crews for bigger houses. You get our own crews and trucks, not a broker, under Texas license TxDMV No. 009636518C.

A 2-bedroom apartment usually takes three movers 4 to 5 hours, from $179 an hour. A 3-bedroom house runs 5 to 7 hours with the same crew, and a 4-bedroom house on acreage takes four movers, from $219 an hour, for 8 to 10 hours. Every local move books at least 3 hours, then 15-minute steps, plus one $50 charge per move for blankets, dollies and tools.

Included in that rate: the truck with its fuel and tolls, the movers, and basic coverage of 60 cents per pound per article. Packing materials, Full Value Protection, a piano and hoisting, $40 an item for each flight, are billed on top; stairs or a long walk from the truck only add time. Anything scratched or broken goes on a Damage Report before the crew leaves.

Our form asks for the date, how big the home is and the ZIP code at each end, and big houses get a walkthrough before we price them. Inside city limits, Boerne's code lets a moving truck stand on a residential street only while it is loading or unloading with a driver present. If your complex or HOA wants a Certificate of Insurance, forward the wording it gives you and we match it on the certificate.

What Boerne moves cost with us

Most Boerne homes are houses: 71.8% are detached, and about one in five sits in a building of five or more units (Census, 2020 to 2024). These three moves cover both.

Example estimates

$766 to $1,1953 movers at $179 to $229 an hour, plus $50 once

The crew does

  • Three movers wrap the furniture in blankets, take apart the bed frames and the dining table when they will not fit the stairwell, and roll everything to the truck on dollies.

You get ready

  • Find out from the leasing office which spot a moving truck can use without blocking a fire lane, reserve any elevator, and forward the complex's COI requirements to us.

$945 to $1,6533 movers at $179 to $229 an hour, plus $50 once

The crew does

  • Three movers bring the upstairs rooms down first, load the heavy pieces against the front wall of the truck, and set each room back up where you point.

You get ready

  • Clear the driveway the night before and keep the curb in front clear: the truck may not block a neighbor's driveway or stop within 15 feet of a hydrant.

4-bedroom house on acreage

A long driveway on a multi-acre lot outside city limits

Crew
4 movers and a truck
Usually takes
8 to 10 hours

$1,802 to $2,8404 movers at $219 to $279 an hour, plus $50 once

The crew does

  • Four movers split between the house and any guest house or workshop, so the truck fills from two places at once.

You get ready

  • Tell us the driveway length, any gate, and what sits in the garage, the shop or the guest house, so the estimate counts every room.

The low end is a quiet weekday and the shorter time. The high end is a busy date and the longer time. Both include the one-time $50 charge.

What every price includes

A local move is billed by the hours the crew works; a move to another state has one flat price. Both come with everything on this list.

Moving-day rules in Boerne

What the city and your building ask for on moving day, who books each one, and how far ahead.

A truck at the curb only while it loads

  • Nothing to book
  • Moving day

On a residential street inside city limits, the code lets a truck stand only while it is loading or unloading, with a driver present, and only for the time the work actually takes. Plan for the truck to arrive with the crew and leave with the last load.

Boerne Code of Ordinances, Sec. 12-139 (opens a new tab)

Where the truck can never stop

  • Nothing to book
  • Moving day

Even while loading, a vehicle may not stop on a sidewalk, in front of any driveway, your neighbor's included, within 15 feet of a fire hydrant or in an alley. Parking on a front or side lawn is banned too, except while goods are being loaded. Tell us about a hydrant or a shared driveway when you book.

Boerne Code of Ordinances, Sec. 12-132 and 12-141 (opens a new tab)

Fire lanes at apartment complexes

  • You ask the office
  • A week before

Parking in a marked fire lane is unlawful in Boerne, and the property owner may have a vehicle towed from it at the driver's expense. Ask your leasing office where a moving truck may stand and put it in the estimate request, because a longer walk from the truck adds time.

Boerne Code of Ordinances, Sec. 8-73 (opens a new tab)

Dickens on Main closes downtown streets

  • Nothing to book
  • When you pick the date

Dickens on Main takes over downtown on the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving, and the city closes the streets at 4 p.m. each night. A move on the Hill Country Mile those days should be loaded and gone by early afternoon, so pick another date if you can.

City of Boerne, Dickens on Main (opens a new tab)

Bulky pickup comes once a month

  • Nothing to book
  • Second full week of the month

WM picks up bulky items at the curb once a month, during the second full week, up to four cubic yards, with everything out by 7 a.m. Furniture and mattresses go; electronics such as large TVs and anything over 200 pounds do not. Moving out just after that week? Plan another way to clear what stays.

City of Boerne, Bulky Collection (opens a new tab)

Book the gas turn-on before move-in

  • You call Boerne Utilities
  • Before move-in day

Boerne Utilities can turn most services on the same day for a signed application sent by noon, but gas needs an appointment with an adult 18 or older at the house. Renters in an apartment attach the lease. Our crew does not disconnect or connect gas or water lines, so book a qualified technician to disconnect a gas range or dryer before we arrive.

Moving in Boerne: what to know

City limits or county, the city's own utilities, boxes, rain on the roads, and the first weeks after you arrive.

On this page
  1. City limits, the ETJ or the county
  2. One city account for most utilities
  3. Boxes, wrap and what stays behind
  4. Rain and low-water crossings
  5. After you arrive

City limits, the ETJ or the county

A Boerne mailing address does not tell you whose rules apply. Trails of Herff Ranch, Regent Park and Champion Heights pay City of Boerne taxes, so the city's parking code on this page covers their streets. Esperanza sits in the city's extraterritorial jurisdiction, and the city's own plat items say so. Cordillera Ranch falls outside both the city limits and the ETJ on the city's map. Boerne cannot apply its zoning outside its limits, so out there an HOA, a utility district or Kendall County sets the rules to check before moving day. Your Kendall Appraisal District record settles a single address: if City of Boerne appears among its taxing units, the house is inside.

One city account for most utilities

Boerne runs its own water, wastewater, natural gas and electric systems. City water and sewer reach the city limits and Esperanza's district, WCID #3. Power depends on the street: the city's electric service area covers most of the city limits, while some addresses inside them get it from Bandera Electric Cooperative or Pedernales Electric Cooperative. Start service with the Residential Service Contract and a government ID, and ask your old utility to send a credit reference letter first, which the city takes in place of a deposit. When you leave, pick a weekday on the disconnect form, because a Saturday or Sunday date moves to Monday.

Boxes, wrap and what stays behind

Flattened boxes go loose inside the yellow-lid cart; WM leaves anything stacked beside it, and plastic wrap, bags and foam are not recyclable here. A house full of boxes goes faster through the Kendall County recycling site at 44 Spanish Pass, open to every county resident on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Flatten the cardboard first, no side longer than 3 feet.

Rain and low-water crossings

Boerne has low-water crossings that close when it storms, and the city posts the closed ones on a map from its flood safety page. The same page says 2 feet of rushing water can carry away SUVs and trucks. After heavy rain we plan the route around any closed crossing, and a detour on an hourly move adds time, so check the map the night before.

After you arrive

To enroll a student, Boerne ISD asks homeowners for a full-page copy of a recent water, gas or electric bill and renters for the signed lease, which is one more reason to open the utility account early. If you bought the house, the Kendall Appraisal District wants a copy of your driver's license with the homestead application; a home near the county line may file with the Bexar, Comal or Kerr district instead. Texas DPS lets you drive on an out-of-state license for up to 90 days and asks you to register your cars before you apply for a Texas one.

Questions about moving in Boerne

Didn't see your question? Call (210) 794-8063, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., 7 days.

$139 to $179 an hour for two movers; three from $179, four from $219.

With us, two movers and a truck cost from $139 an hour on a quiet weekday to $179 on a busy date. Add a third mover and the rate starts at $179; a crew of four starts at $219. About seven in ten Boerne homes are detached houses (Census, 2020 to 2024), and a house usually takes three or four movers. Every move books at least 3 hours, and the $50 equipment charge is added once. The example moves above work out three Boerne homes from those rates.

Labor only, if you can drive the truck yourself. Our crew loads your rental truck or pod from $109 to $139 an hour for two movers, with a 2-hour minimum, and brings the blankets, dollies and straps. For a full move with our truck, pick a quiet weekday: the same two movers start from $139 an hour then, while a busy date runs up to $179. Boxes packed, taped and stacked by the door before the crew arrives take hours off the bill. In Boerne, a clear curb in front of the house helps too, because the truck may not block a driveway and every extra step from it is billed time.

Start with the state license. A company that moves you within Texas needs a TxDMV certificate, so ask for the number and look it up in TxDMV's Truck Stop search; ours is TxDMV No. 009636518C. Be wary of a price set before anyone has asked about your item list, your stairs and where the truck can stand in Boerne, because those details change the hours. Then ask whose truck comes. A broker sells the job to another company; our crews arrive in our own trucks.

Distance decides how it is priced. Within about 150 miles, say from Boerne to San Antonio or New Braunfels, we bill by the hour: four movers for a 4-bedroom house start from $219 an hour, and the house usually takes them 8 to 10 hours, plus the $50 equipment charge. Past that distance we stop billing by the hour: a long-distance move gets one price before loading, set from the list of what you are moving and the route.

The city lists none. Its permits page sends every application through the MGO portal and names no permit for a moving truck, and the right-of-way permit is for construction such as driveways, signs and utilities. What applies instead is the parking code: on a residential street inside city limits, a truck may stand only while it is loading or unloading with a driver present, and never across a driveway or within 15 feet of a hydrant. If you are unsure, the city's Permitting office answers at (830) 248-1529.

No. The city's planning agenda lists Esperanza plats as extraterritorial jurisdiction, and the city's map puts the subdivision outside city limits, although city water and sewer reach it through WCID #3. Boerne cannot apply its zoning there, so ask your HOA or property manager what it allows for trucks and containers before moving day. Phase 3A, for one, was platted with mostly private streets.

Yes, with the crews of our San Antonio office. Once a move passes about 150 miles or leaves Texas, we price the whole job up front from your inventory and both addresses, and the total does not grow if the drive or the unloading runs long. Our San Antonio routes include Dallas, Denver and Washington DC.

Boerne neighborhoods we move

Which side of the city limits a street sits on decides whose rules the truck follows: the city's code, an HOA's or Kendall County's.

  • Downtown and the Historic District

    Over 150 properties on a mile of Main Street

    The city's Historic District, set up in 1985, covers Main Street from Frederick Street to Oak Park Drive. The Weihnachts Parade fills it at night on the first Saturday of every December.

    Historic District
  • Trails of Herff Ranch

    Houses on about a seventh of an acre, platted 2005

    Every lot pays City of Boerne taxes, so the city's curb rule applies: a truck at the curb only while it loads. Herff Ranch Boulevard has no-parking areas in the Cibolo Creek Elementary school zone.

  • Regent Park

    Master-planned lots of about a fifth of an acre

    Inside city limits, with a homeowners association, and still growing: a Unit 6 plat was on the city's planning agenda in May 2026, so expect builders' trucks near Park and Regent Boulevards.

  • Champion Heights

    Homes on lots of about a sixth of an acre

    Inside city limits. A 2016 city ordinance set stop signs, speed limits and no-parking areas in Phases 2 and 3, so some curbs here are off limits to the truck.

  • Esperanza

    Lots of about a fifth of an acre, phases platted to 2025

    The city lists Esperanza plats as extraterritorial jurisdiction, outside city limits, though city water and sewer reach it through WCID #3. Phase 3A was platted with mostly private streets.

  • Cordillera Ranch

    Houses near 4,400 square feet on about three acres

    Outside both the city limits and the ETJ on the city's map, so Kendall County rules apply, plus any the community sets. Big houses on big lots mean long driveways, and some come with a guest house or a workshop.
