South Austin Movers

South Austin is home turf for us. Our family business is based in Buda, just down I-35, so neighborhoods like Circle C, Shady Hollow, Slaughter Lane, and Southpark Meadows are a short drive away, and Travis Heights, Bouldin Creek, and South Lamar are an easy run up the road. Whether you are moving from a 1940s bungalow off South Congress to a newer home near Slaughter, or leaving an apartment on South Lamar for a house in Onion Creek, we help South Austin families and businesses move with clear communication and careful crews.

Elite Star Movers is a family owned and operated moving company with 20+ years of experience, licensed with TxDMV (#007098595c), insured, and BBB-registered. 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 South Austin: Local Notes

South Austin covers a lot of ground, and each part of it moves a little differently:

Older central neighborhoods: Bouldin Creek, Travis Heights, Zilker, and Galindo have older homes with narrow streets, short or shared driveways, and street parking that fills up early. We plan where the truck can stop and how far the carry is before move day.
Hills and trees: Barton Hills and parts of Travis Heights have sloped lots, steps up to the front door, and low live-oak branches over the street. Tell us about steps and tight turns so we can bring the right crew.
Southwest and Circle C: Circle C Ranch, Shady Hollow, and the neighborhoods off Slaughter Lane and Escarpment often have HOA rules about truck parking and moving hours. Send us the rules and we will plan around them.
Apartments and condos: South Lamar, South Congress, and the Riverside and Oltorf area have many apartment and condo communities with elevator reservations, move-in windows, and COI requirements.
Traffic: I-35, MoPac, Ben White (US 290/SH 71), William Cannon, and Slaughter Lane all slow down at rush hour. Early starts help, and they beat the summer heat.
Events: Big weekends around South Congress and Zilker Park can close streets and fill parking. If your move date lands on an event weekend, tell us so we can plan the route.

How Your South Austin Move Works

Tell us what is moving. Share your inventory online or by phone, with both addresses and your date. Mention pianos, stairs, gate codes, 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.
Reserve your date. A deposit holds your crew and is applied to your final bill.
Move day. Hector Jr leads the crew. We protect, load, move, and set up your things, then walk through with you before we leave.

Moving to South Austin?

Many of the families we move into South Austin want to stay close to downtown without giving up a yard, or they want quick access to I-35 and MoPac for work. If you are relocating from another part of Austin, from San Antonio, or from out of state, we can handle the whole move, from packing at your old place to setting up beds and unpacking the kitchen at your new one. Once you are settled, Zilker Park, Barton Springs, the Lady Bird Lake trails, and the restaurants along South Lamar and South Congress are close by. Moving to South Austin from out of state? Call us to talk about the delivery side of your move.

Moving Between South Austin and Buda

South Austin and Buda share a border along I-35, and moves between them are some of the most common jobs we do. Whether you are heading south for more space in Buda or Kyle, or moving north to be closer to downtown, it is a short local move. You get the same furniture protection, careful loading, and final walk-through as any other job, priced by the hour based on crew size with no truck fees. Heading the other way?
