High-rise and condo movers in Austin

Downtown Austin towers make moving a timed event. Freight elevators get booked in blocks, loading docks have windows, and buildings want a certificate of insurance on file before anyone shows up. Playhouse Moving handles the paperwork and scheduling for Rainey Street, Seaholm, Market District, Domain and other high-rises so your move fits the building's rules.

The building checklist

  • Freight elevator reservation for both buildings, if both are towers
  • Loading dock or curb time and truck height limits
  • Certificate of insurance with the exact wording the building requires
  • Floor and elevator protection requirements
  • Move hours and any weekend restrictions

Send us your building's move packet and we take it from there.

Why crew size matters more in a tower

When the elevator is booked in a set block, the crew has to move fast enough to finish inside it. We size the crew so the job fits the reservation, with someone staging at the truck and someone at the elevator.

Condos outside downtown

Mid-rise condos in Mueller, the Domain, South Lamar and East Austin often have similar rules on a smaller scale. We handle those the same way.

Antonio and Jarrel did an excellent job moving our belongings. They immediately got to work on arrival and finished with time to spare.

High-Rise and Condo Moving questions

Can you get my building a certificate of insurance?

Yes. Send us the building's COI requirements and we will deliver it to management ahead of move day.

What if the freight elevator is only available for a few hours?

We size the crew to finish inside the reservation and plan the load order around it.

Do you move between two high-rises on the same day?

Yes. We coordinate both buildings' elevator times.

Does a high-rise move cost more?

Elevator waits and long hallways add time, and local moves are billed by time. We account for that in your estimate.
