Movers in Driftwood, Texas
Driftwood is Hill Country living just west of Buda: rolling ranch land, oak-covered hills, wineries, and a growing number of new homes along FM 1826 and FM 150. It is unincorporated, so many homes sit on acreage with gates, long driveways, and roads that wind. Elite Star Movers is a family owned and operated moving company based right next door in Buda, and we serve Driftwood’s 78619 ZIP code and the rest of Hays County.
Elite Star Movers is a family owned and operated moving company with 20+ years of experience, licensed with TxDMV (#007098595c), insured, and BBB-registered. Every move starts with a pre-move survey, our team returns your quote call and builds the plan with you, and Hector Jr leads the crew on move day. Our slogan is simple, We Can Handle It, and our motto guides every job: Serving People & Protecting Furniture, Peace by Piece.

Moving in Driftwood: Local Notes
Here is what we plan for on Driftwood moves:
- Acreage, gates, and long driveways: Many Driftwood homes sit well back from the road on gravel or caliche drives, with gates, slopes, and low oak branches. We ask about gate codes, driveway grade, and turnaround space so we know where the truck can safely park.
- Gated and master-planned communities: Communities like La Ventana and Driftwood Golf & Ranch Club often have gate check-in, HOA moving hours, and truck rules. Send us the details when you book.
- New construction: New homes keep going up across Driftwood. If yours was just finished, there may still be builder traffic or unpaved sections nearby, so we confirm access the day before.
- Winding two-lane roads: FM 1826, FM 150, FM 967, and RR 12 are scenic but narrow and curvy in places. We plan the route for a loaded truck and allow time for it.
- Weekend traffic: Wineries, barbecue, and event venues along FM 1826 and FM 150 draw crowds on weekends. Weekday or early starts usually go smoother.
- Weather: Low-water crossings can close after heavy rain. If storms are in the forecast, we keep in touch about timing and routes.

How Your Driftwood Move Works
- Tell us what is moving. Share your inventory online or by phone, with both addresses and your date. Mention gates, steep or gravel driveways, pianos, or anything oversized.
- Pre-move survey and estimate. Every move starts with a pre-move survey of what is moving and the access at both homes. Then we send your estimate.

- Move day. Hector Jr leads the crew. We protect, load, move, and set up your things, then walk through with you before we leave.
