Houston Heights Movers for Bungalows and Townhouses
Our Heights yard sits at 721 E 11th Street — a block off Studewood. We know what makes the Heights different from every other Houston neighborhood: raised-pier bungalows built between 1905 and 1930, narrow driveways, tight cross streets like Harvard and Rutland, protected pecan trees you cannot bump with a 26-footer, and the Heights Historic District rules that ban parking a truck across a sidewalk for more than an hour.
Most of our Heights work is craftsman bungalow moves in Woodland Heights and Norhill, townhouse move-outs on White Oak, and downsizes from long-owned homes near Heights Boulevard. Our crews carry piano boards for the raised porches, hand trucks with pneumatic wheels for the brick sidewalks, and short-body trucks for the streets a full box truck can't fit down.
Call the 11th Street yard or send the quote form. We'll do the walk-through in person for anything over 2,000 square feet, quote you flat, and give you a written window — not the four-hour "sometime that morning" other movers use.

About Pack It Movers Houston Heights
Heights Movers Trained on Antique Furniture
The Heights is where the antique dressers, art collections, custom-built dining tables and inherited pianos live. Our Heights lead movers are cross-trained on piano boards, mirror boxes, and custom crate-outs — the pieces that turn a normal move into a claim if the crew isn't trained. That's why interior designers and estate managers in Woodland Heights book us on referral.
Packing Tips for Your Move
We know moving is not only stressful, but can rack up those expenses real quick.

Heights Moving and Storage
Moving and Storage in the Heights for Renovations
Half the Heights bungalows on our schedule are getting renovated — foundation lifts, kitchen tear-outs, addition builds. We hold your furniture in climate-controlled bays for weeks or months, then redeliver to the same address once the contractor is out. Estate downsizers use the same setup while family sorts through what stays and what goes to consignment.
Ready to Get Started?
Call (346) 853-7110 and speak to the dispatcher at the 11th Street yard — no call center, no phone tree. We'll pull your address, check whether we need a short-body truck for your block, and quote your Heights move flat before the call ends.
Common Questions
Moving and Storage FAQ
Two movers are $129 an hour against a two hour minimum, so $258 at the smallest, and three movers are $179 against three hours, so $537. The $99 trip charge is already folded into those rates, which puts a typical three hour bungalow job at $387 with nothing arriving later.
Usually, and where we cannot we say so before you book rather than on the morning. Streets in 77008 have narrow shoulders, low limbs and cars parked both sides, so we scout access first and shuttle with a smaller truck when the 26 footer will not fit. That decision changes the hours, which is why it happens before the quote.
Yes. Heights bungalows are full of pieces older than the plumbing, and doorways built in 1920 for furniture that no longer exists. Crews pad the jambs, blanket and shrink wrap each piece, and take apart and rebuild bed frames, armoires and dining tables rather than forcing them through a turn.
We cover 77007, 77008 and 77009 out of the yard at 721 East 11th Street, plus Woodland Heights, Garden Oaks, Timbergrove, Cottage Grove and Rice Military. Being inside the neighbourhood is why the clock does not start with a cross town drive.
Yes, and in the Heights that usually means getting one down a staircase built for 1920 furniture. Gun safes, pool tables, upright pianos and gym equipment go on boards and straps with a lift gate, at the standard hourly rate with no specialty surcharge added on top.
Yes, and the first month is free, a $250 value. Heights renovations overrun constantly, so we load out, hold everything in climate controlled storage, and redeliver when the floors are done. One contract covers all three steps. Call (346) 853-7110 to size the unit.
