What a Playhouse house move looks like

Before move day we confirm the details that actually change how long a job takes: stairs at either end, how far the truck can park from the door, oversized pieces, and anything fragile or sentimental. That conversation is how we pick the right crew size so you are not paying for extra people or waiting on too few.

On move day the crew walks through with you, protects floors and door frames where needed, then wraps and loads. At the new home we place furniture where you want it and reassemble anything we took apart. Most customers tell us the part they noticed most was the communication, and that is on purpose.

Austin homes come with Austin quirks

Hill Country driveways in Westlake and Steiner Ranch, narrow streets in Travis Heights and Bouldin, HOA move rules in master-planned suburbs like Teravista and Falcon Pointe, and summer afternoons that hit triple digits. We plan around all of it: early starts in July and August, truck placement that respects your neighbors, and water breaks that do not stall your move.

How residential moves are priced

Local moves are priced by the hour, based on crew size. The biggest things that move the number are how much you have, how far the truck can park from each door, stairs, and how ready things are when the crew arrives.

This was the best move I have ever had, and I've moved a lot! These guys were efficient, fast, and great to work with. Very courteous and respectful but so much fun. Response time for my initial quote was fantastic. I wish everyone handled their business like this!

Residential Moving questions

How far ahead should I book an Austin house move?

For weekends and month-end dates, two to three weeks ahead is a safe target, and more during May through August. Weekday dates are usually easier. If you are inside that window, call anyway because we often have openings.

Do I need to be home for the whole move?

Someone who can make decisions should be there at the start for the walkthrough and at the end to sign off. In between, a phone call away is fine for most moves.

Will you take apart beds and tables?

Yes. Standard disassembly and reassembly of beds, tables and similar furniture is part of a residential move. Tell us about anything unusual, like a wall-mounted unit or a crib, when you request your quote.

What should I pack versus leave for the crew?

Box up small and loose items yourself if you want to save time. Leave furniture, mattresses and large electronics to us. If you want help with packing, add our packing service to the quote.

Do you move homes outside Austin city limits?

Yes. We move homes throughout the Austin metro, including Round Rock, Cedar Park, Pflugerville, Georgetown, Leander, Kyle, Buda, Lakeway and Manor.
