Austin Cross Country Movers
Born around the flames of pioneers, Native Americans, and Mexicans, and ignited by ideas the newcomers brought from the Old Continent, Austin remains a capital unlike any other. If you’d love to be part of this cool, marching to its own beat metropolis, our Austin movers can help you. Cross country moving can be hard sometimes, but with our expertise and experience, relocating will be smooth sailing, and you’ll be able to enjoy the city’s laid-back spirit from the word go. Buckle up because you’re in for a special ride.
Austin Is a Lot of Quirky Fun
Nestled in the wooded hills where Texan ranches meet the Blackland Prairies, and located along the stream of the Colorado River lies Austin, the Texan nonchalant, easy-going capital where fun awaits at every corner. The once contested center of the state is now a get-away for everybody wishing to escape the morose 9-5 routine and try out something more creative. The place is brimming with authentic natural oases, eccentric shopping avenues, succulent food, and versatile music venues where you can listen to nostalgic and modern country, blues, and jazz. And wherever you head, art will be around in some way, accompanied by the quirky and casual city vibe.
But, the Violet Crown City is not merely an artistic spot. The best thing about it is that it defies one specific identity, creating opportunities for all sorts of people to thrive. Apart from being the paradise for art lovers, it is a tech-hub of e-commerce, software, cloud, and numerous other lucrative branches. And, it doesn’t stop here either. You’ll also encounter crowds waiting for hours to lay their hands on the Texas Trinity (briskets, sausages, ribs); yes, the food is so superb, the locals equate eating to transcendental experiences. And cross paths with bikers, pun enthusiasts, historians, Winnie-the-Pooh fans, outstanding University students, Texans at heart, as well as music lovers trapped in the last century. A city with one of the fastest-growing populations in the nation opens its doors to anyone not afraid of self-expression.
Moving Into Awesome Neighborhoods Was Never Easier
Regardless of whether you’re looking for a new place to boost or change your career, start a family, or simply explore your own potential, there’ll be a corner in the capital of the Lone Star State just for you. Though unable to hold back the tide of change, the city is known for resisting gentrification, which results in the special aura you’ll feel emanating in different neighborhoods. Here are our top picks:
Downtown Austin - This iconic quarter, designated to be the core from the city’s early days, is a dazzling display of history and modernity, perfect for career enthusiasts and entertainment lovers alike. It boasts epochal districts as well as condos, high-rise buildings, and headquarters of the country’s most influential companies. Take a tour of Congress Avenue and visit the landmark Texas State Capitol and the Bullock State History Museum. Stroll down Rainey Street, and enjoy the buzz and liveliness of its beer gardens. Give Moody Theatre a shot and listen to a concert at the legendary Austin City Limits festival. And, don’t forget to idle away pleasant hours at Ladybird Lake, where you can hike, bike, kayak, canoe, and watch sunsets, full moons, and yes bats! Though a bit on the more expensive side than most other parts of the city, Downtown definitely makes up for it with its versatile character.
Barton Hills - Known for its affordable housing and stunning natural beauty, the area is a go-to for families and singles craving fun off the beaten track. Though only a short drive from Downtown, this natural Eden seems to be worlds apart from the urban world. The capital’s outstanding weather really makes an impression on you here as you can revel in many outdoor activities. From swimming in the clean public pools to hiking, and bird watching, you won’t be twiddling your thumbs in Barton Hills. And the area is also bordering the famed Zilker Park, which is an inexhaustible well of leisure activities. Besides, the spot offers top-notch schooling, which is a key factor to be considered if you’re relocating with kids.
East Austin - Picture hip, nonconformist, and open-minded, and you’ll get here. Vast and with hidden natural gems, the area’s distinct personality is present all over. Far from the clutches of dreary living, it blends novel cocktail bars, fusion eateries, and fancy cafes with traditional Southern cuisine, beer joints, and sounds of bluegrass and country music. It’s where you can find the best soul and indie musicians and unravel the voices of African-American and immigrant histories. And, don’t miss out on the undisputed star of Texan meat, the Franklin Barbecue, a shed restaurant serving the best barbecue in the known universe, according to Texas Monthly.
Not Your Typical Things to Do List
Apart from the great outdoors, all the juicy, crispy, and mouth-watering food, and history, the city on the Colorado River is also host to some offbeat and unforgettable entertainment. Begin with walking down memory lane and visit the historic Victory Grill where musical icons such as Chuck Berry, Tina Turner, Billie Holiday, and even the mind-blowing Janis Joplin used to perform. Or come back to the present and explore Sixth Street, the ultimate nightlife spot brimming with talented bands and club-goers. Catch a cult movie, or watch a witty stand-up comedy. Take part in the city's numerous poetry slams, pub, and trivia quizzes, and meet the Austinites and their true face.
Still not convinced? The capital of Texas also hosts unconventional festivals such as the Pun-Off World Championship, where contestants are invited to come up with pun inspired monologues in an attempt to captivate the audience. It is also a site where Eeyore, Pooh’s depressed donkey friend, gets to celebrate his birthday with loud and colorful festivities. The last Saturday of April is when the city residents put on costumes and show off all of their crafts and talents, including music, dance, and brazen confidence. And, the capital’s South by Southwest revolutionary event is not to be overlooked either. A networking opportunity for creatives of all kinds, it’s a superb chance to become part of some thought-provoking exhibitions, screenings, and workshops.

Austin4/20/2016Overall, great service. This company is all you need if you're trying to have a simplified move. Matthew from the... read more LA office was my 1 on 1 contact. I did everything through email with him. Literally only had to provide 3 pieces of info to him and the rest was magic. That simple. Period. Moving is stressful enough so if you're a busy guy like me then call this company up and let them do the leg work. Don't hassle with trying to pack the stuff yourself, their full packing service special is well worth it for you and your items. They offer full coverage insurance too which was initially why I had my mind set on these movers. read less

Amazingly, the move out process only took a couple of hours and moving in was even faster! The movers were very friendly to my grandfather and were adamant on keeping anything that we may have wanted. They moved with confidence, and when they were unsure of something they weren't afraid to ask. Very reliable company that I would use again. read less
Austin2/17/2016I utilized Cross Country Movers for a long distance move I had in August from Texas to Pennsylvania. This was... read more my first time doing a long distance move, so I had no experience at all. Planning this move was a headache as any kind of moving can be stressful.PRE MOVE:After calling Cross Country Movers, I got connected with Dan B. He was assigned as my long distance move specialist and would be with me through the whole moving process. He walked me through the process and made it clear and simple. He gave me a quote over the phone. I researched other companies and many of them have to come to do an in person estimate which is a hassle. There was no pressure to go with them and the customer service was excellent. Cross Country is also registered with the Department of Transportation, so there are legit.Because this was my first time doing a move, I was a bit anxious. I called Dan many times, but he was always nice and friendly. He was always available to answer my questions. My quote was about $3,700 for a 1 bedroom move, 1 living room, and 1 bathroom move (price is dependent on how much stuff you have).My car shipping was: $975It sounds a bit pricey, but it saves on stress of doing a road trip with a U-haul.MOVE DAY:The day of the move, everything went very smoothly. I chose the package to pack things myself and have the movers come. The movers were fast and friendly. They wrapped and moved the big stuff for me. I just had to make sure to pack all my small miscellaneous objects.My quote was guaranteed, so everything I moved on my list would be guaranteed at that price. I actually was able to pack less boxes and was efficient with my packing, so in the end saved $300 from my original quote.POST MOVE:My stuff got to my destination on time. The movers gave me an update on where my stuff was every couple of days, so this definitely reassured me.Dan B. was excellent and provided awesome customer service.

Austin10/10/2016Few days ago my friend planned for a move. She requested me to assist her hiring a mover. We contacted... read more many companies and at last moment we decided to call Cross Country Movers. The move was little critical because they had to pick out stuffs from three different places. So they decided to provide us for five professional movers and couple of trucks. Trucks were so big. Move was very good. During the loading time, one of my chair's leg got broken.It was loose from the beginning. But they promised me they would repair it as soon they would arrive at my destination place. Overall was nice. The guys repaired the furniture. One of my neighbors collected their phone number from me. I think he will call you soon.Oh! I forgot to say about the price, it was really cheap! You can try them! read less
Austin4/23/2016Even though I did not end up using this company for my cross country moving needs, I was so impressed... read more by them and their customer service that it warrants a 5 star review. I worked primarily with Jake J., who was responsive, honest, and patient. He guided me through the process and followed up with me after we spoke on multiple occasions. When I asked him about a cheaper quote that I had received from a different moving company (they do their best to match quotes), he was honest with me about that particular company's reputation, providing me with links to unbiased and credible reviews (which were consistently poor and unfavorable). I know that some people may think that Jake was just trying to get my business, but he told me this: "Even if you don't use us, I would urge you not to use them. I'd be happy knowing that in the end you are in good hands even if it's not us." The main thing I gained from my interactions with Cross Country Movers was more knowledge. Moving can be stressful and confusing, but after speaking with Jake and asking him all sorts of questions, I feel much more confident in making moving decisions and choices. I truly felt taken care of with Jake. He was like my moving guardian angel! The only reason why I didn't end up going with Jake and Cross Country Movers was because my dad and brother are actually helping me out (the most cost effective option for me!). Jake was completely understanding and never seemed put-off by my decision-making. I recommend this company (and Jake) for anyone making a big move!! read less
Austin4/29/2017Hands down the best long distance moving experience so far. We've probably done a total of 5 long distance moves... read more in the last 10 years. Cross country movers are consummate professionals - from the moving staff to support staff. hyper responsive and incredibly diligent! Will definitely use them again when needed. read less
