Our San Antonio Moving Process

What happens, and when, on a San Antonio move:

Start With Your Dates

Share your addresses, home size, and target date, plus anything that fixes the timing, like a closing, lease end, or report date, and we’ll send a written quote.

Book the Crew

Your Move Coordinator books the crew, sends the arrival window, and shares a moving checklist you can start on right away.

Load by Room

Doorways and railings get padded, and the crew loads by room so unloading at the new place goes in order.

Check Every Room

At the new address, nothing is marked done until you’ve looked over every room with the crew.

How Much Does It Cost to Move in San Antonio?

Every local San Antonio quote comes as an hourly rate or as one flat rate for the whole job. Porch steps and stairs, the walk from where the truck parks, time spent at a gate, and add-ons such as packing or junk removal decide where the total lands.

Hourly Rate Moving

Hourly pricing is ideal for most local San Antonio moves.

Pay based on the time it takes to complete your move.
Time starts when movers arrive and ends when the move is complete, plus fixed travel time.
Most moves require a 3-hour minimum.
Hourly rates vary by season and moving requirements.

Flat Rate Moving

Available for qualifying moves when the scope can be clearly defined in advance.

Pay one agreed price, regardless of moving time.
Pricing is based on the amount you’re moving, distance, and moving requirements.
No additional hourly charges if the move takes longer.
Changes to the agreed list of items or services may affect the price.

Preparing for Your San Antonio Move

Use the weeks before a San Antonio move to sort out access, paperwork, and what you’re leaving behind.

Before your scheduled date:

Request gate passes or guest access for the crew and truck.
Ask your HOA whether moving trucks need advance notice.
Measure tall furniture against older staircases and doorways.
Clear porch steps and front walks of planters and decorations.
Schedule your base housing or rental move-out inspection.
Keep orders, IDs, and medical records with you on move day.
Pack a cooler with water and snacks for a hot moving day.
Empty the refrigerator and prop its doors open overnight.
Label boxes for any room that should be unloaded first.

San Antonio Moving Questions Answered

Can you move military families on or off Joint Base San Antonio?

Yes. Joint Base San Antonio includes Fort Sam Houston, Lackland, and Randolph, and a move to or from on-base housing means getting the crew and truck through the gate. Base visitor rules can require a sponsor, a background check, and advance notice, so start that request once your move date is confirmed.

When is military moving season busiest in San Antonio?

Summer. The Department of Defense treats May 15 through September 30 as peak season for household goods moves, so summer dates fill early. Book as soon as your orders arrive, and for a move to a new duty station in another state, see our interstate moving options.

Do you move medical residents near the South Texas Medical Center?

Yes. Residency programs generally begin July 1, with orientation in late June, so many new residents move during the last weeks of June. Book that window early, and if your lease starts after orientation, we can hold your belongings in storage until it does.

Are there times to avoid moving downtown?

Fiesta in April is the main one. Parades such as the Battle of Flowers and Fiesta Flambeau close downtown streets for much of a day or evening, which can cut off truck access near the routes. If you’re moving in or near downtown that month, check the parade dates before picking yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

View all

How do I get an estimate?

Choose whichever fits your schedule for a free quote or consultation.

✓Video walkthrough. A 15-minute video call, room by room. Most popular option.
✓Call us. 866-565-1516 speak with our friendly team.
✓Request a quote online. Send details and we’ll follow up.
✓Free in-person estimate. Available for homes with 2+ bedrooms.

Will my furniture be protected?

Yes. At Poseidon Moving, protecting your furniture is one of our highest priorities.

Every piece is carefully prepared before it’s moved. Our crews use heavy duty moving blankets, stretch wrap, floor protection, and proven loading techniques to help prevent scratches, dents, and shifting during transport.

If you have antiques, artwork, glass, marble, or other high-value items, we can recommend additional protection options such as custom crating or White Glove service.

Are there items you can't move?

Yes. For safety reasons, we cannot transport hazardous materials or certain restricted items. These are commonly referred to as “non-allowable items.”

This includes:

•Propane tanks, gasoline, kerosene, and lighter fluid
•Paint, aerosols, household cleaners, and other hazardous chemicals
•Fireworks, ammunition, matches, and charcoal
•Living things, including plants, fish, and pets

We recommend transporting these items yourself, using them before your move, or disposing of them safely according to local regulations.

Not sure about a specific item? Just ask your Move Coordinator before moving day, and we’ll be happy to let you know if it can be transported.

Can you take down TVs and wall-mounted items?

Yes. We can remove and reinstall many wall-mounted items as part of your move.

Our crews can typically dismount and reinstall:

✓Mounted TVs
✓Artwork and mirrors
✓Shelving
✓Window air conditioners

Some installations may require additional hardware, specialized tools, or extra time, so these services may incur an additional charge.

If you know you’ll need help with wall-mounted items, let your Move Coordinator know before moving day so we can arrive fully prepared.

How much will my move cost?

Every move is unique, so the most accurate pricing starts with a personalized estimate.

✓Local Moves – Pricing depends on the size of your move, the time required, travel time, and any additional services such as packing, storage, or specialty handling. Based on your move, we’ll recommend either hourly or flat-rate pricing.
✓Long-Distance Moves – We provide binding estimates based on your inventory, the distance, logistics, and any additional services you request.

Do you provide moving supplies and equipment?

Yes. Every Poseidon Moving truck arrives fully stocked with the supplies and equipment your move may need.

✓Heavy-duty moving pads, stretch wrap, and tape
✓Dollies, hand trucks, straps, and floor protection
✓Basic tools for disassembly and reassembly

If you’re not fully packed by moving day, let us know before your move date and we’ll make sure the crew brings the packing supplies you need – boxes, dish packs, wardrobe boxes, bubble wrap, mirror boxes, and TV boxes.
