What a local move costs

It depends on your move. Labor is billed by the hour based on crew size, and your home size, stairs, distance, packing and date all change the total. Every move gets a free, no-obligation quote.

Why Butter Brothers

Professional movers in an unprofessional industry

Great moves come from getting the small things right, every time. Here's what that looks like on moving day.

Trained, background-checked crews

Every mover is trained on our standards: padding and wrapping your furniture, and protecting your home and doorways.

The clock starts at the first item

Not when the truck leaves our shop. It stops when the truck is empty at your new place.

FAQ

Local moving questions

How much do local movers cost in Austin?

It depends on your move. Most movers bill by the hour based on crew size, with a minimum. Home size, stairs, distance, packing, specialty items and your date all change the total. Every move is different, which is why we give a free, no-obligation quote.

Do I have to take my furniture apart?

No. Taking apart and putting back together standard furniture like beds, desks and tables is included in your moving time.

What won't you move?

We don't move flammable items like propane, firearms, or gas appliances that are still connected. Anything over 300 pounds that has to go up or down stairs must be checked with us before you book, so tell us about heavy items up front.
