Butter Brothers provides premium moving for homes, apartments and offices in San Marcos, about 30 miles south of Austin on I-35 and home to Texas State University.

Local movers for San Marcos homes and offices
San Marcos is the Hays County seat and home to Texas State University, which set an enrollment record in fall 2026. Popular communities include Kissing Tree, a gated 55+ community, and Blanco Vista in north San Marcos, plus older homes in the historic districts near the downtown square and the San Marcos River.
We move student apartments, family homes and offices, and our senior moving crews are patient with downsizing moves into communities like Kissing Tree.
Moving between San Marcos and Austin? That's a local move, not a long-distance one. We quote it the same way as a move in Kyle or Buda: one crew loads at one end and unloads at the other, and you pay for the actual time.
Every crew is trained and background-checked, brings the truck, blankets and tools, and takes apart and puts back together your furniture as part of your moving time.
