“These guys were great! Julian, Trey, and Bryson I think was his name? Anyway, they got my things quickly but carefully so as to keep everything looking nice and minimize the time-based total. And my piano still sounds great! 10 out of 10.”
Texas Moving Labor
A UT Austin student clearing out a West Campus walk-up or a family hauling furniture off land out past Del Valle — either way, Dalton Reyes still runs the outfit he started by getting hired by the hour himself, the crew on your job draws a real paycheck, and the number you agree to beforehand is the number that gets paid.
- Dalton Reyes bought his first truck in 2016 and still climbs into it for the hard jobs
- Five of our own trucks, five crews we hired and trained ourselves, zero gig-app day labor
- 10 years running out of Austin, Texas-registered household goods carrier the whole time
One Figure, Not A Guessing Game
Whether we walk your place in person or look at it over a video call, you end up with a single dollar amount — and it’s still the number on your invoice once the truck pulls away.

Some people want a real person with a tape measure; others just want to point a phone around the rooms. Either way, every stair and doorway gets noted before a price ever gets written down.
Book a Walkthrough →See What Jobs Like Yours Actually Cost
A one-bedroom near campus, a family house out past Manor, a run down to San Antonio — look at real numbers for moves shaped like yours before you ever pick up the phone.
Check Sample Pricing →Nothing Gets Left Off The List
The garage, the attic, whatever’s stacked behind the shed — we walk through it together ahead of time so move day never turns up a surprise the truck wasn’t sized for.
Ask Us About It →What Booking Texas Moving Labor Actually Looks Like
Tell Us The Basics
Where the truck loads, where it unloads, and about which week — that’s enough for the office to start putting a number together.
We Take A Real Look
By video or in person, the crew counts stairs, furniture, and anything I-35 traffic or a caliche driveway might throw at the day.
Flag Anything Extra
A piano, a gun safe, a stretch of storage before the new place is ready — mention it now and it folds into one number instead of a surprise later.
Get It In Writing
Whatever number lands in your inbox is the number you sign on move day — it doesn’t drift between now and then.
Our Crew Shows Up On Schedule
The date on your calendar is the date our truck shows up, payroll crew included — a 105-degree August afternoon or a rare icy morning doesn’t change that.
Open dates around Greater Austin are thinning out fast this month. Reagan is already working the UT move-in crunch around whatever I-35 construction is doing that week — get a slot locked in before the good weeks are gone.

What Austin Customers Are Saying
Posted the way people actually wrote them — the easy jobs and the complicated ones alike, straight from customers across Greater Austin.
“Great crew. Worked hard and efficient. Courtesy. Knew how to handle piano. I would use them again.”
“10/10 recommend. They made the move easy and stress-free. Very reasonably priced—it was worth every penny. They helped us with regular furniture and disassembling/moving a large piano. We will definitely be using this company again for our next move!!”
“These guys were life savers! We needed someone quickly to move my dining set to my elderly in laws, load it all in a truck, move their dining set and help move some other furniture they needed re-organized. They were reliable, polite, cheerful, and very easy to work with. They did a great job at both houses. I would recommend them, and I would use them again. Great locally owned business.”
“These 2 young men were FANTASTIC!!!! With my elderly parents!”
“We hired this company to help my elderly mother move, and they were so gentle and patient with her. They didn’t rush anything and made sure she felt comfortable the whole time. Truly caring service thank you for helping us!”
Where Texas Moving Labor Beats The Other Options
A self-service rental truck, a pod dropped off in the driveway, a broker passing your info to whichever crew bid lowest that week — none of it comes with a number in writing, our own people doing the carrying, or belongings that never leave hands we put on payroll ourselves.
| Texas Moving Labor | Brokers | Containers | Truck Rentals | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| You see the dollar figure before a single box gets touched | – | |||
| We own every truck and cut every paycheck ourselves — nobody rents a rig for the day | ||||
| Texas household goods carrier registration on file, bonded and insured on every job | – | – | ||
| Whoever loads your boxes in Austin is the one carrying them into the new place | ||||
| Packing and unpacking ride inside the same flat number, no separate invoice line | ||||
| Pianos, gun safes, oddly-shaped items — our own crew rigs them, never a specialty sub | ||||
| Storage is available week to week or month to month whenever a job calls for it | ||||
| One carrier handles the whole trip — your things never change hands mid-route |

The Long Hauls Austin Customers Book Most
The truck that pulls out of Austin is the truck that arrives, driven by the same crew the whole way, at a price locked in before it ever leaves the driveway.
The paper you sign is the only number you’ll ever see on this move.
The Number Gets Set Weeks Ahead, Not The Morning Of
A summer thunderstorm turning a driveway to mud, an unexpected mileage add-on after a Travis County job — neither one shows up on the bill, because whatever’s written down ahead of time is what you owe when the truck backs in. And the person carrying your boxes is on Texas Moving Labor’s actual payroll, not somebody hired by the hour that same morning.
- One number, set well before anyone touches a box
- A background check and a spot on payroll come before anyone climbs into one of our trucks
- A $1M cargo policy covers the load, whether it’s a mile down the road or clear out to El Paso
The Crew That Shows Up At Your Door

Some people want a person physically walking the rooms; plenty more would rather just film it on a phone. Both paths end the same way — a written number once we’ve looked, nothing to sign on the spot, and no charge if you end up going a different direction.
Start My WalkthroughMornings before work, evenings, Saturdays — say what works and the office builds around it.
Whether it’s a video call or an in-person visit, every stair, fragile item, and oversized piece gets logged before a number ever gets quoted.
A flat figure lands in your inbox the same day, no obligation attached if you decide not to move forward.
What Austin Callers Ask Us Most
Is this a real moving crew, or does my job end up with somebody else?
A working Austin moving company, registered as a Texas household goods carrier, with DOT/MC authority for anything that crosses state lines. Everyone involved — whoever quotes it, drives it, and carries the boxes — is on our payroll; your job never gets routed to another company, and your details don’t get sold to a call center.
How do you arrive at a final number?
A member of our team goes room by room with you, in person or over video, and comes back with a single written figure — no hourly clock ticking in the background, no surprise stair or mileage charge anywhere in Travis County.
What happens if the schedule runs into UT move-in week?
We plan around it well ahead of time. Reagan blocks out extra crews for the last two weeks of May and the last two weeks of August specifically because that’s when campus turns over, so a booking made early still gets first pick of dates.
Can you handle a piano, a gun safe, or something else oddly shaped?
Regularly. Trey Whitcomb keeps rigging on hand for uprights, baby grands, gun safes, and anything else heavy or awkward, and he’s handled enough of them that it rarely slows a job down.
Do you go outside Texas, or just around Austin?
Both. San Antonio is barely over an hour down I-35, Houston and Waco run a couple hours out, and Dallas, Corpus Christi, and El Paso cover the longer end of it. No matter the mileage, one flat figure covers the trip, and the hands that loaded it in Austin are the hands unloading it wherever it lands.
How far ahead of moving day should I book?
Two to three weeks out gets you first pick of dates, especially around late May and late August when the whole UT Austin campus turns over at once. If you’re past that window, call anyway — slots free up from cancellations more than most people realize.
