Katy Movers Who Quote the Long Carry Flat
Newly built homes in Katy often sit far from where a truck can park, and an hourly bill climbs with every trip across the lot. We price that long carry as one flat amount before the day starts, so the walk from curb to door does not change your total. The rest of the move is billed by the hour at the crew rates above.
Booking gives you a 2 hour arrival window, and your billing clock starts when our crew reaches your home. Our own employees do the carrying, not day labor. The $99 trip fee is added on top of the hourly rate, never hidden inside it.
You can reach the Katy office between 6 AM and 11 PM every day, and booking by phone or online is open 24/7. Ring (281) 392-7225 or use the form to get a free quote. We can list your belongings with you in person, or over video if you have not moved to town yet.

Katy Moving Rates
How Much Do Movers Cost in Katy, TX?
Movers in Katy cost $125 an hour for 2 movers or $175 an hour for 3 movers, plus a $99 trip fee on top. The minimum is 2 hours for a 2 person crew and 3 hours for a 3 person crew, so the smallest bill is $349 or $624.
| Crew | Hourly rate | Minimum time | Minimum bill with trip fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 movers | $125 | 2 hours | $349 |
| 3 movers | $175 | 3 hours | $624 |
Estimated cost by home size
Each total is the typical move time for that home size, times the hourly rate, plus the $99 trip fee. We show both crew sizes so you can compare them side by side.
| Home size | Typical time | 2 movers | 3 movers |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | 2 to 3 hours | $349 to $474 | $624 |
| 2 bedrooms | 3 to 4 hours | $474 to $599 | $624 to $799 |
| 3 bedrooms | 4 to 6 hours | $599 to $849 | $799 to $1,149 |
| 4 bedrooms | 5 to 8 hours | $724 to $1,099 | $974 to $1,499 |
The 3 mover column already counts the 3 hour minimum.
Two worked examples
- 2 movers for 4 hours: 4 hours at $125 is $500. Add the $99 trip fee and the bill is $599.
- 3 movers for 6 hours: 6 hours at $175 is $1,050. Add the $99 trip fee and the bill is $1,149.
Your bill is the actual time on the clock, which starts when the crew arrives at your home. The totals above are estimates built from typical hours, not a quote for your move.
What Changes the Price of a Katy Move
On a new build, the long carry is the big one. When the truck has to park far from your door, we price that walk as one flat amount before move day, so it never runs up the hourly bill.
Your HOA move in window matters too. Many Katy communities set the hours a truck may be there, so tell us your community when you book and we plan the crew around that window.
Packing, long distance moves within Texas and storage are priced by quote, not by the table above. You can ask for a packing quote for your Katy move on the same call. If your closing date slips, the first month of Katy moving and storage is free, a $250 value.
Heavy pieces do not add a fee. Gun safes, pool tables and gym equipment move at the normal hourly rate. Call (281) 392-7225 with your home size and community for a free quote.

Moving Companies Katy, Fulshear, Brookshire, Richmond
From the Highway Boulevard yard we cover Katy 77450/77494/77493/77449, Fulshear, Brookshire, Cross Creek Ranch, Cinco Ranch, Cane Island, Elyson, Firethorne, and Richmond east of Grand Parkway. If your move ties into an Energy Corridor pickup or drop, our drivers already know the I-10 shift-traffic patterns to avoid.
Most of our clients are relocating for schools, since Katy ISD draws families from California, Chicago and the Northeast. Many land here before their furniture does, and we handle long carries into three car garage homes where the truck stages at the mailbox and the crew shuttles by hand truck. Our lead movers know which HOAs want a same day certificate of insurance and which will not let a truck stay past 6 PM. Our yard is at 6193 Highway Boulevard #101, off I-10 at Pin Oak.
Katy summer moves book out fast, because many families time the move around the school year. Book eight weeks ahead for peak summer. Outside summer we can often start the same week.

About Pack It Movers Katy
Katy Moving Company Trained on New Build Long Carries
Katy's new-build homes come with long driveways, three-car side-loads, and HOAs that hate seeing a semi at the curb. Our Katy lead movers know how to stage a shuttle: pallets on the driveway, air-cush hand trucks over concrete pavers, blanket-wrap everything twice. That's why relocation coordinators and Katy ISD teachers keep sending us back for the next move.
Owner Anthony Johnson started Pack It Movers in 2012. The Katy crew charges the same rates as every other Pack It location.

Katy Moving and Storage for New Home Closings
Families relocating to Katy often arrive weeks before the new build closes. Our Katy storage bays hold the entire load — including specialty items like art, wine collections, and workshop equipment — until the certificate of occupancy comes through. When the keys come through, our Katy crew delivers from storage into your Cane Island or Cross Creek Ranch home.

Common Questions
Katy Moving FAQ
Two movers are $125 an hour and three are $175 an hour, with a $99 trip fee added on top. The minimum is 2 hours for two movers and 3 hours for three, so the smallest bill is $349 or $624. Hourly time starts when the crew arrives, and a long carry on a new build home is quoted flat rather than billed by the hour.
Yes. Two movers have a 2 hour minimum and three movers have a 3 hour minimum. With the $99 trip fee, the smallest bill is $349 for two movers and $624 for three. Past the minimum, you pay for the actual time on the clock, which starts when the crew arrives.
A 1 bedroom home typically takes 2 to 3 hours and a 2 bedroom takes 3 to 4. A 3 bedroom runs 4 to 6 hours, and a 4 bedroom runs 5 to 8. On a new build, the long carry from the truck is quoted flat, so a far parking spot does not stretch your hourly bill.
No, and this is where Katy quotes stop being comparable. New construction off the Grand Parkway often parks the truck 200 feet from the door, and an hourly mover simply bills you for walking it. We quote that carry flat from the yard at 6193 Highway Boulevard, so the distance is priced before the day rather than discovered on it.
Yes. Cinco Ranch, Cross Creek Ranch and the Grand Parkway communities set their own move in hours and some require notice at the gate. Tell us the community when you book and we confirm the window and any paperwork ahead of time, because a truck outside the window loses the slot for the day.

Yes. Game rooms and garage gyms are standard in Katy and most movers decline the contents. Gun safes, pool tables, upright pianos, treadmills and multi station gyms go on piano boards and straps with a lift gate, at the normal hourly rate with no specialty fee added.
Yes, and the first month is free, a $250 value. Families relocating to Katy and slipped closing dates are the two most common Katy jobs, so we unload into climate controlled storage and redeliver when you have keys. Call (281) 392-7225 to size a unit.
