Hey All!

Moving from Austin to Philadelphia unfortunately.

Looking for local movers who provide long-distance or out-of-state service for residential moves.

And any local, Austin agents for national/regional movers.

Thank you!

When I moved from Austin to the Bay Area in 2012, I was pleased with American Relocation & Storage Systems, the Austin agent for Wheaton World Wide Moving. Mark Huff came over and gave me an estimate which was accurate. The men who came to load my stuff on moving day were experienced and efficient. Highly recommended.

Get a written binding estimate and don't let them extort you on the other end. Be willing to live out of a suitcase and call the cops if need be.

Who's your statement directed to? I use my broker on a daily basis for the past 3 years and never had any freight issues.

Probably to everyone in general. Movers are shady and there have been tons of desperate people who have got taken to the cleaners by all types.

We moved from Philadelphia last summer but used a major moving line for a relocation.

Will exactly will you be in Philly? We lived about 40 min north of Center City. If you have any questions about the area, I'd be happy to help. Good luck with your move. Philadelphia is really a fun place to live.
