Houston sits about 165 miles east — out US-290 and onto I-10 toward the Bayou City. Most one-bedroom loads wrap in a single day, and the price is fixed in writing and signed before Bryce puts your job on the truck board.

East to the Bayou City

  • The Arm Strong crew that loads your South Congress bungalow is the same crew that carries in at Houston — no relay driver, no swap.
  • Our own truck runs the full 165 miles; nobody else lays a hand on your boxes.
  • High-rise or gated complex on the far end? Send the dock rules and Marisol has the COI to building management ahead of move day.

Headed on the Austin-to-Houston run?

One Austin crew runs the entire haul, and a single signed Austin flat figure carries you from your front door to the lobby at the far end — priced against the actual inventory in front of us right now

Our own Austin movers pad and shrink-wrap everything back in Austin, then stay with that truck straight through to the unload — none of it brokered, nothing tossed onto a load board, no rig handed off at some weigh station, nobody strange calling you back from a queue.

“Had to move an old upright piano and a dozen packed crates from Round Rock to Georgetown, and Arm Strong Quality Movers handled the job like it was nothing. Cole and Diego came fully equipped with dollies, pads, and straps. They communicated every step and made sure the piano was secured properly at each stop. Anyone needing a specialty move done right should book these guys.”

“Contracted with Arm Strong Quality Movers to move a large house amount of furniture from Austin to San Antonio. Their four-man crew - Trent, Diego, Jerome, and Cole - worked steady and quickly to protect and pack two trucks full of furniture including a piano. Got to the destination and unloaded without a scratch. Recommend this local business.”

“Long distance moving can be very stressful; contacting Arm Strong Quality Movers and its local crew was the best thing that happened to us. From the first contact, through the initial quote, to pick up and delivery of our household goods, everything went great. Professionalism at every stage from admin support, to the driver and packers: "OUTSTANDING" work, you guys keep up the great work you do; THXS!”

Questions people raise before booking this haul

Five steps from first call to keys in your hand

1

Send us the details

Give us the two addresses, the floors and the date; a flat figure comes back by email with nothing tucked out of sight.

Want the help? We box the whole house or just the breakables, using our own cartons, blankets and paper.

4

We load and drive

One uniformed crew works both ends — loading in Austin, unloading at the new place, no carrier handed off along the way.

5

We set you up

Every box lands in the room you tagged, beds get rebuilt, and all the used paper rides back out with us.

One Austin crew, whatever you are moving

The same team loads apartments, houses and businesses right across Austin and the wider metro.

Apartment & condo

Downtown high-rises, mid-rise buildings and SoCo walk-ups moved by a crew that lives on elevator holds, dock windows and building COIs.

Long-distance

Cross-country runs south on I-35 or out via US-290 to I-10 — a single truck, a single crew, watched the whole way from pickup to drop-off.

Learn more

Packing & crating

Box out the entire home or only the delicate things — made-to-fit crates protect canvases, framed pieces and glass tabletops.

Learn more

Storage

Secured, weather-steady units you rent by the week or month whenever your sale and purchase dates refuse to meet.

Learn more

Commercial moves

We shift offices, retail floors and Domain tech suites after dark and over weekends, so your doors stay open and the workweek hardly notices.

Junk removal

Tired couches, dead appliances and move-day clutter carted off to the dump, before or after the truck gets loaded.

How move day runs with us

A steady, by-the-clock rhythm your Austin crew holds from the first knock to the final box set down.

  1. 7:00a

    Crew shows up

    Uniformed movers on site at dawn, before the Texas heat climbs, with the elevator hold booked and the COI already filed at the building office.

  2. 7:45a

    Wrap & pad

    Furniture blanketed and shrink-wrapped; door frames, elevator walls and lobby floors covered before anything leaves the room.

  3. 9:30a

    Load up

    Everything stacked tight out through the dock or elevator, strapped down, and ticked off against the inventory sheet.

  4. 11:30a

    Drive to the new place

    That same Austin crew takes the loaded truck all the way to your destination — nobody hands it off, no swap to another carrier partway.

  5. 1:30p

    Unload

    Boxes go to the rooms you tagged and every piece of furniture lands right where you point.

  6. 3:30p

    Rebuild

    Beds put back together, a last walkthrough with you, and every sheet of used paper hauled back out.

A note from Cole

I built Arm Strong Quality Movers in 2013 around one rule I have never bent: the flat price we put in writing is the price you pay once the last box is in — no charges dreamed up after the truck is loaded. The trucks are ours, and every mover riding them trained under me before he ever laid hands on a customer’s sofa.

A studio on the twentieth floor of a Rainey Street tower and a four-bedroom out by Lake Travis get the exact same treatment — one vetted Austin crew and one written flat rate, dock to doorstep. That is what keeps neighbors handing our name around, from South Congress condos to East Austin walk-ups.
