An apartment move lives or dies on the building rules: the certificate of insurance, the freight elevator window, the loading zone downtown. We handle that paperwork before move day, bring a crew that works towers and walk-ups all week, and price the whole thing flat.

COIs, elevator reservations, and dock windows are arranged with management before the truck arrives.
Austin apartment living spans glass towers on Rainey and along Lady Bird Lake, mid-rises in the Domain and Mueller, and older walk-ups all over the central neighborhoods. Each comes with its own access reality: a high-rise needs a certificate of insurance naming the building, a reserved freight elevator, and a tight dock window; a walk-up needs a crew that can carry flights without scratching a stairwell. Royal Moving & Storage handles both as routine work, not a scramble. Lease turnovers cluster at the end of the month across Austin, which is exactly when freight elevators and loading zones are hardest to get, so booking the window early is half the battle.
We confirm the building requirements before the date, time the move to the elevator and dock windows, and protect common areas so you keep your deposit and your standing with management. The price is flat and in writing, the crew is sized to the unit and the floor count, and the move is built to finish inside the window the building gives us. Riverside, the Domain, and the downtown towers each run their move logistics a little differently, and we know the drill at each. We also know which downtown buildings enforce strict dock hours and which mid-rises in the Domain and Mueller are more flexible, and we plan your slot accordingly.

Most managed buildings require a COI naming them. We issue it to their exact wording, fast, before move day.
Freight elevators and loading zones book up. We reserve and time the move to the window you are given.
Walk-ups need careful flights and protected corners. Our crews carry without marking the building. High-floor moves are timed to the elevator so the crew is never waiting on it. Crews protect stair nosings and handrails on every flight.
Lobbies, hallways, and elevators are padded and protected, which protects your deposit too.
One written number for the move, with the building logistics already counted in.
When the building gives a four-hour dock slot, we plan the load to use it, not blow past it. We confirm the building's exact dock and elevator hours so the move never stalls.
Four steps, most of the building hassle on us.
We price the move and gather the building's requirements at both ends.
COIs issued, elevators and docks reserved to spec.
A right-sized crew protects common areas and works the window.
Unit emptied or filled inside the building's time slot.
Apartment moves often pair with these.
Crosstown moves with flat pricing and rules handled.
Secure holding for the gap between leases.
Professional packing for a fast, protected move.

The document your building requires, issued fast.
Our apartment crews work buildings across the metro, from downtown and Rainey Street towers to the Domain, Mueller, Riverside, and the suburbs.
The certificate is free when it is early and expensive when it is late.
The standard in every building.
COI handled, elevator booked, one flat price.
A studio or one-bedroom runs a few hundred dollars; larger units and high-floor moves run higher. We price flat from your inventory and floor count, with the building logistics already included in writing. End-of-month and university turnover dates fill fastest, so an earlier booking usually means a better rate and a better time slot.
