Austin Mover Reviews
I had the pleasure of working with Terrick and Xavier from Ogre Man Movers for my recent move, and I couldn't be more impressed with their professionalism and efficiency. They spent 4 hours loading a 5 bedroom house into a 26-foot-long truck, and they did it with incredible speed and care. Terrick and Xavier were meticulous in handling all our belongings and packed the truck to perfection. I highly recommend their services for anyone looking for reliable and skilled movers. Thank you, Terrick and Xavier, for a job well done!
Very good service and easy to work with.
Thank you very much for your service. Everyone on the team was professional, friendly and fast.

Real Advice from Austin Movers
We asked local movers about what you should know about moving in Austin. (They’re really nice!)
"When we need extra trucks or last-minute storage for a customer in need, I always go to this uhual. It's in a great central location, they always have trucks and solutions of all kinds including storage. The employees are very nice. Austin traffic can be challenging in a big moving truck, so stick to Mopac, I35, and the toll roads for the easiest access to Austin's best neighborhoods. "
"With the Texas heat, the sooner you schedule your services the better for everyone. Additionally, Austin traffic has been progressively getting worse with more and more people moving to the city, so planning around morning/evening rush hour would be most beneficial!!"
"Austin, Texas is a growing city and the best highways to use are I-35, Mopac and 360. If you are in search of Renting a moving Truck, I would personally look into Penske as they offer unlimited miles when going out if state and you can return the rental in any state. If you are in search of a new state of the art Storage Facility: Bee Safe Storage will give you the best/cheapest rates in town!"
"With the Texas heat, the earlier in the day you schedule your services the better for everyone, we start as early as 7am! Additionally, Austin traffic has been progressively getting worse with more and more people moving to the city, so planning around morning/evening rush hour would be most beneficial!!"
"Moving to downtown Houston can be a headache if you don't have a reserved freight elevator or a reserved loading zone. If you reserve these ahead of time, you can save hours on your move."
Advice for Moving in Austin or Anywhere.
Because we know a little about moving, we've written some need-to-know articles that can help make moving in Austin, or anywhere really, as easy as can be.
Major Neighborhoods in Austin
Austin undoubtedly lives up to any expectation as the capital of everything's-bigger-here Texas. Of course, it's known for being a grand stage for music, but it's also home to some spectacular natural beauty, like Ladybird Lake and the Zilker Botanical Garden. You've also got research, student life, and college sports centered on the University of Texas. If you want to be a part of Austin's liveliness, your best bet is to hire local movers — they can handle freeway exchanges and navigate every neighborhood with ease.
Downtown Austin
Downtown Austin is a neighborhood that feels like it's made up of a bunch of different, smaller pieces. You've got Sixth Street with the nightlife and annual events like SXSW. Meanwhile, nestled next to all the modern music venues and restaurants is the Texas State Capital, built in the late 19th century. And running along the waterfront is Lady Bird Lake Hike-and-Bike Trail, a mini natural escape from the city. No matter where you settle in Downtown, be sure to hire local movers who know the area to make your relocation stress-free.
South Congress (SoCo)
South Congress, affectionately known as SoCo, is an eclectic hotspot for locals and tourists. It's home to the Continental Club, a music venue mainstay that's been around since the 1950s. You can also visit the South Congress Hotel for its modern architecture, boutique, and motorcycle shop (yes, really!). Keep in mind, while the area's walkable, it's pretty hilly — but you do get great Downtown views at the top. Local movers know how to navigate those hills with heavy moving trucks, so rely on them whenever you decide to make SoCo your new home.
Zilker
Zilker is named for a 358-acre park in the same area, and as you'd expect, it's a neighborhood with a lot of green space. A lot of restaurants will have patio seating so you can enjoy all that nature, including Opa, a dog-friendly cafe that also specializes in Greek food. You can swim year-round in Barton Springs, a natural pool in the middle of the eponymous park, or enjoy seasonal events like the Trail of Lights. Want to join the Zilker community? Then have local movers handle all the logistics of your relocation.
Clarksville
Clarksville has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1976 and is one of the city's oldest and most cherished neighborhoods. You can really get a sense of that history from spots like Caffé Medici, one of Austin's first coffee shops. There's also Texas's largest independent bookstore, BookPeople, which often hosts signings by some big-name authors. While officially spanning only nine square blocks, letting local movers navigate the dead-end streets and main thoroughfares like West Lynn Street will mean your move won't have any delays.

The guys did a great job! They patiently arranged and rearranged everything making sure it ended up where I wanted it. And even tightened up the screws on a wobbly table! They were careful, efficient and very polite. I would definitely use them again.
Morris and his crew were a life saver! We had a few glitches as a result of poor planning on our part and they worked hard resolving everyone of them. Very professional hardworking gentlemen.
Absolutely incredible job!!!!!! I wish they were moving with us to help us unload. They were fast, careful, friendly and they were able to get everything into our pod! 10/10 for sure!!!
I moved with Melrose Moving recently, and they were awesome! They made moving easy and quick. The movers came on time and took good care of my stuff, so everything arrived safely at my new place.

These guys were great, very careful with our stuff. They worked quickly & efficiently. I would definitely recommend them! I would use them again except we’re moving out of state!!
Courteous, communicative and planful. These gentlemen played live Tetris to stck my complicated belongings into a Rat Pack container in a manner to reduce damage and maximize space used.
First of all, they have manners and were very flexible. They were ready to start as soon as they arrived and already had a plan. They were timely and efficient. They were respectful and I would definitely recommend my friends and family. Thank you guys!!!
The two guys came in, loaded and unloaded everything in an hour! We wish we’d packed more items because they were SO QUICK! They moved a cubicle and it broke BUT they were professional and had good attitudes— will book again if needed. Thanks!
Our two-man team was wonderful. On time, friendly, personable, quick and very professional. They moved our furniture and boxes with care. They did a great job loading our truck and utilizing the space available accordingly. Much appreciated. Thank you!
