Moving Companies in New Braunfels, TX
What local moves cost
Local moves in the Austin–San Antonio area, including New Braunfels, are billed hourly. A standard two-to-three-person crew with a truck typically charges $100 to $200 per hour. If you rent the truck yourself and only hire loaders, the truck typically runs $59 to $129 plus about $50 to $80 per hour for each helper.
| Home size | Typical local cost |
|---|---|
| Studio / 1-bedroom | $499–$750 — Smaller volume, faster load |
| 2–3-bedroom home | $750–$1,500+ — Stairs and heavy items add time |
Hidden charges to ask about
For hourly jobs, ask when the clock officially starts and stops. Many companies add a travel or fuel surcharge that begins when the crew leaves the dispatch office, not when they arrive at your door. Peak periods, especially June through August and the first or last days of the month, bring premium rates. Scheduling mid-month and mid-week can lower the price.
Heavy or awkward items such as pianos, gun safes, and oversized hot tubs often carry flat fees outside the standard hourly rate. Multiple flights of stairs at either location can also add surcharges.
Insurance and what movers cannot move
Texas law requires basic mover liability, but it usually covers only $0.60 per pound per item. A 20-pound television worth far more would be reimbursed around $12 if broken. If you own high-value electronics or fragile heirlooms, ask about Full Value Protection.
Movers legally should not transport open liquids, flammables, or high-value personal cash and jewelry. Keep IDs, birth certificates, medications, phone chargers, and first-night necessities with you in the car.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Comal County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 27% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
