Schertz, TX Movers

Two movers and a truck: $139 to $179 an hour. Three from $179, four from $219.

The rate for a two-mover crew with our truck is $139 to $179 an hour, low on a quiet date and high on a busy one. A third mover takes the rate from $179, and four movers start at $219. Every job books at least 3 hours, then each 15 minutes is billed, and the $50 equipment charge appears on the bill one time. The example homes above work out a Schertz apartment, a one-story house and a two-story house from those numbers.

A low minimum often comes back as charges the ad left out: a fee for each flight of stairs, a long-carry fee, a truck fee or a fuel charge. With us the full move has a 3-hour minimum, and stairs or a walk from where the truck stands in Schertz only add time. What sits on top is listed before the date: the $50 equipment charge, packing materials, Full Value Protection, hoisting and heavy items such as a piano. Our 2-hour option is labor only, where our crew loads your rental truck or container for $109 to $139 an hour.

Look at the truck and the paperwork. TxDMV wants a licensed mover's name, its TxDMV certificate number and its USDOT number on both sides of every truck, and its Truck Stop lookup should show that certificate as Active; ours is TxDMV No. 009636518C. A licensed mover also hands you a written proposal and a contract before anything is loaded. Be careful with a price given without a single question about your stairs, your garage or where a truck can stand on your Schertz street.

On a quiet weekday. Two movers run $139 to $179 an hour, and quiet dates sit at the bottom of that range, while busy dates sit at the top. Two more ways to spend less in Schertz: have boxes packed and taped before the crew comes, and if you are leaving furniture behind, put it out on your own bulk week before moving day so the crew does not carry it.

No. Schertz code bars commercial vehicles over one ton and trailers from being parked or stored on a city street, alley or right-of-way, though loading and unloading are allowed. Another section bars a vehicle parked with its engine or an auxiliary system left running on a residential street from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. So on a two-day move, our truck spends the night off the street. A storage container is different: up to 60 days a year on the driveway.

Tell us at booking, and we confirm before the date. Randolph sends commercial trucks through its South Gate on Lower Seguin Road in Schertz, Monday to Friday only, and every unescorted adult in the truck gets a background check, so a base move needs a weekday and names sent ahead. Ask your housing office what it requires from the moving company, and check whether your orders come with a government-arranged shipment first.

Yes. A long-distance move gets one flat price instead of an hourly bill, set before loading from the list of what you are taking and the distance by road. Houston and Dallas count as long distance; a move to San Antonio or New Braunfels stays hourly. Moves that leave Texas run under our USDOT 3212621 and MC-1018431, and moves inside the state under TxDMV No. 009636518C.
