The full rundown

Packing & Unpacking in Houston

Short on time, or dreading the china and the stemware? We pack Houston homes with solid materials and a careful hand. Hand us the whole house, or just the kitchen, the artwork, and the electronics, and take care of the rest yourself.

What sets it apart

Good packing is what gets things there intact, and it counts double on a long haul. We pack into double-wall cartons, real newsprint and bubble, and purpose-made dish and mirror boxes, marking each one by room so nothing gets lost.

What we pack

  • Kitchens, dishes, and glassware
  • Art, mirrors, and electronics
  • Books, closets, and wardrobe boxes
  • Whole-home or partial, your pick

What we bring

  • Double-wall boxes in every size
  • Packing paper and bubble wrap
  • Dish, mirror, and wardrobe cartons
  • Tape, labels, and floor protection
Your call on scope: Pack it all, or just the fragiles and the valuables. It is all labeled by room. Add local moving and it is one crew, one flat price.
Simple from the first call

Three Steps to Moving Day

From that first hello to the final box carried inside and set down in the right room.

1

Tell Us About the Move

Walk us through the move over the phone, on a quick video call, or right through the form. You get back a flat price in writing, never a soft figure that balloons once the truck is loaded.

2

Lock In Your Date

Lock in your day and we assign the right crew and truck, then handle the loading-zone permit, the building certificate of insurance, or the freight-elevator booking your move calls for.

3

We Carry the Load

A single lead runs the entire job, wrap, load, drive, and placement, with our own Houston crew, and we route the run around the 610 Loop, I-10, and Beltway 8 to keep the day on schedule.

Your Move, Fully Covered

Covered from the first blanket we lay down to the final box set on the second floor.

Fully Insured

Cargo and liability coverage come with every job, and we walk through your valuation choices with you before you sign anything.

High-Rise Ready

Freight-elevator bookings, building certificates of insurance, cramped Heights stairwells, and tight townhome corners, we scout the carry and the loading zone so a tower or walk-up move never stalls at the door.

Padded & Wrapped

Each item is blanketed, shrink-wrapped, and strapped down firmly. Should a piece take a knock, we flag it right away and make it right.

Done Right

A straight price, a crew that genuinely cares about the work, and nobody leaves until every last piece sits exactly where you want it.

I hired Vickers Moving Service to move our heavy concrete table and benches from our old backyard to our new one. They were able to fit us in within a few days, and it only took an hour! Sarah helped set everything up on the phone and the crew she sent over worked fast to get all the pieces into the truck and over to the new place in record time. Their hourly rate is a little higher than other companies, but there was no minimum time charge, no trip fee, and it didn't matter what day we scheduled for, so it ended up costing less! I definitely recommend them, and if I ever move again, I'll be giving them a call.

Another great move with Vickers Moving! This was my second move with this company and I could not be more pleased. The communication was excellent, the bid was exact, they arrived on time, the men were experienced and listened, doing things one time and done. The quality of the move was perfect with my belongings undamaged and the furniture reassembled well.

I'll just echo what everyone else has said, they are fantastic. Extremely polite, punctual and efficient. Very careful with all my belongings and quick. Worth the slightly higher hourly rate. They were also so accommodating moving me from essentially Montrose on a busy summer festival Saturday. I feel like anyone else would have been frustrated or straight up walked away when my awful complex locked the big driveway gates, but they took it in stride and worked around the stairs to use the pedestrian gate. Definitely worth 5 stars and I will be recommending to all my friends.

Questions We Hear a Lot

What do you pack with?

Heavy double-wall cartons, fresh newsprint and bubble, dedicated boxes for dishes and mirrors, and wardrobe cartons that keep clothes on their hangers. We label the room on the side of every box, so unloading goes quickly and nothing goes missing.

What will my move cost?

Two things drive it: the size of the load and how easy the access is. Book a truck with two movers and the rate opens at $125/hr, with a written line-item estimate in your hands before the first box moves. Need a firm ceiling? Ask for a flat cap and the figure you sign is as high as the bill can go. When the move crosses state lines, we price it on weight and distance instead.

Is there anything you won’t load?

Only a short list, and it all comes down to safety and the law: propane, gasoline, paint, and anything flammable, along with ammunition, houseplants, perishable food, and pets. Got something oversized, extra heavy, or especially valuable? Flag it when you book so we bring the right crew and equipment.

What if a piece gets damaged?

Thorough padding keeps it rare, but should something take a hit, we record it on the spot and start the claim that same afternoon. Before the job we go over released versus full-value coverage, so you know exactly how any claim would work out.

Can I move or cancel my date?

Of course. Reschedule or cancel with at least two days’ notice and your full deposit comes back to you. Every condition is written into your booking in plain words, so nothing is left to guesswork.

Are you licensed and insured?

We are. Vickers Moving Service carries Texas household-goods authority and full insurance, and your job stays with our own crew start to finish, with no broker slipping in to grab a cut. We are glad to walk you through the authority numbers and coverage details, and we will review your valuation options before anything is locked in.
