Buda Started as a Railroad Stop Called Du Pre and Kept the Depot Spirit
Buda began in 1881 as a stop on the International-Great Northern Railroad, and it was first called Du Pre. The name changed to Buda within a few years, and local lore traces it to the Spanish word for widow, viuda, for the widows who ran the boarding house and fed railroad passengers. However the name arrived, the railroad made the town, and the historic depot district along Main Street still carries that origin.
For a century, Buda was a small Hays County farm and ranch town south of Austin on the road to San Marcos. The last two decades rewrote that. Interstate 35 growth, the arrival of major retailers like Cabela’s, and wave after wave of new subdivisions turned Buda into one of the fastest-growing small cities in Central Texas, even as the old downtown kept its character.
Moving in Buda spans both eras: historic homes and Main Street businesses on one side, sprawling new neighborhoods off FM 967 and the interstate on the other. Royal Moving & Storage handles them all.

Buda in Context
The Numbers Behind Buda
Buda is a city of roughly 16,000 residents in northern Hays County, straddling Interstate 35 about fifteen miles south of downtown Austin and just north of Kyle and San Marcos. Onion Creek runs through the area, FM 967 and Main Street anchor the older town, and rapid subdivision growth has spread west and east of the highway.
The city has grown several times over since 2000, but the historic downtown around the old depot and Main Street has held onto its small-town scale and character.
Buda’s Story
The railroad created Buda in 1881, and the town that grew around the depot served the surrounding cotton and ranch country. The name Du Pre gave way to Buda early on, and the legend of the railroad-hotel widows attached itself to the change. The Stagecoach House and other early structures survive from those decades.
Through most of the twentieth century, Buda stayed small. The explosive growth came with the Austin metro’s southward expansion along I-35 in the 2000s and 2010s, when retail anchors and master-planned communities arrived in quick succession. The city worked to preserve its historic core even as its population multiplied.
What Moving Day Looks Like in Buda
Buda move days break along the interstate. The streets near historic Main Street sit on compact lots with mature trees and older homes whose porches and details need real protection and a carefully placed truck. West of Interstate 35, communities like Garlic Creek and Whispering Hollow open up the streets but bring association rules, stair runs, and longer hauls to the door.
The interstate itself is the wild card. Traffic through Buda backs up heavily, so we set loading and travel times around the peaks to keep a move to or from Austin out of the corridor crawl.
Areas We Serve Near Buda
Beyond Buda, our crews cover the I-35 corridor south of Austin, the Hill Country communities to the west, and cities across the greater Austin metro.
