Guide
Helpful Tips for Moving from Los Angeles to Austin
Create a room-by-room inventory and label boxes — it speeds up unloading and placement in Austin’s high-rises and HOA communities.
Reserve elevators or loading windows early for Downtown, The Domain, and campus-area buildings; request COIs if needed.
Ask about temporary no-parking/loading permits to secure curb space on narrow or busy streets.
Confirm valuation coverage and consider full-value protection for high-value items before moving day.
Use heat-aware packing (extra shrink wrap, moisture protection) — the I-10 corridor can be hot and occasionally stormy.
Disassemble large items and bag hardware; label each set by room for faster reassembly at destination.
Plan for weather: flexible delivery windows help avoid summer storms; keep “first-week essentials” in clearly marked totes.
Skip restricted items (aerosols, fuels, perishables). Request our do-not-ship list before packing.
Declutter strategically — selling bulky pieces reduces weight and overall moving from Los Angeles to Austin costs.
Keep valuables and vital documents with you and back up digital copies to the cloud.
Tell us about specialty items (pianos, fine art, safes) so we can schedule the right crew, equipment, and crating.
Protect surfaces: request door-jamb covers and floor runners — essential for condos, townhomes, and new builds.
