What sets us apart from other companies Local experience - Houston, San Antonio and beyond

We know I-10, I-69 and other key routes like the back of our hand, allowing us to plan our trips efficiently and avoid peak traffic congestion. Whether you're moving from a high-rise in Houston or a suburban home in San Antonio, we'll take care of everything, including any special parking permits or building requirements. Our service area covers not only San Antonio, but also surrounding areas such as New Braunfels, Berne, and Schertz. Whether you are moving for work, school, or looking to start a new life, our experienced moving team is here to help.

Professional movers

We've already mentioned that each move is managed by a highly trained team leader with at least three years of long-distance moving experience. Our team members are trained in safe packing and handling techniques - whether it's disassembling furniture, protecting fragile electronics, or transporting heavy or valuable items such as a grand piano or antique furniture. We use fully equipped trucks with the latest equipment to secure your belongings because we treat them as our own.

Special requests

Before your move, we will make sure to contact you. At your pre-move consultation we will consider the quantity of your belongings, the timeframe in which you plan to move and any special requests such as packing and unpacking services, overnight storage service, handling of particularly fragile or valuable goods or the need for stops along the way or moving furniture only. Want to share moving costs with someone moving along the same route? We can coordinate joint moves to keep costs down.

Transparent pricing system

Our long distance moves are flat rate, so you won't be charged extra for flights of stairs, long distances from the truck to the parking lot, or extra loading/unloading time. Additional fees are only charged for highly specialized or heavy items such as pianos or oversized safes. To book a move, we require a fully refundable deposit - if you cancel at least two weeks before the move, you will receive your deposit back.

Moving Tip: Before moving, familiarize yourself with San Antonio's truck parking regulations, especially if you're moving downtown. Getting the necessary parking permits in San Antonio ahead of time can save you time, money, and nerves on moving day!

Stan and Alex were great! I would definitely recommend them to anyone moving!

These guys were the best! Elvin and his team were well prepared. We had a move from Houston to San Antonio and they came with an extra truck to make sure everything would all fit. They were very thorough and careful with our furniture, antiques and large terrarium. Also, were in great spirits the whole time! Highly recommend.

On time, very courteous and good service.

I had a great experience with WellKnown Moving Company! Stan and Alex were fantastic. They were professional, efficient, and handled all of my furniture and boxes with great care. They worked quickly while making sure everything was protected, and the entire move went smoothly from start to finish. Everything arrived in perfect condition, and they definitely made moving day much less stressful. I will 100% use them again and highly recommend Stan and Alex to anyone looking for reliable movers.

Stan and his team were a great help on our move from Houston to Dallas. They arrived on time, worked quickly and efficiently and really reduced the stress of moving.
