Apartment & Townhome Moves Along the DFW Tollways

Third-floor walk-ups, gated complexes, and service-elevator buildings up and down the tollway corridors — handled fast and by the hour.

The apartment and townhome complexes lining the Dallas North Tollway and Sam Rayburn corridor are some of the most common jobs we run. Tight stairwells, narrow breezeways, third-floor walk-ups, reserved-time elevators — these moves reward a crew that’s done a few hundred of them, and ours has. We come ready for the building, not just the boxes.

It’s billed by the hour: $144 for two movers, $199 for three when the stairs or the square footage call for it. A studio usually lands around $400 to $590 and a one-bedroom $640 to $960, with a $130 deposit holding the date.

Paperwork the Leasing Office Will Actually Ask For

Most complexes up here want a certificate of insurance on file before move day, and gated communities need the crew and truck cleared at the gate. We handle the COI and the elevator booking ahead of time so the leasing office isn’t holding up your move-in while someone hunts for a fax number.

Walk-Ups and Tight Turns Are Our Default

A third-floor walk-up in August is brutal if you’re doing it yourself — we bring the dollies, pad the railings, and rotate the crew through the heat so the job stays quick. Sofas that won’t make the stair turn get stood, wrapped, and routed the way that actually fits, not forced.

You hand us the keys and the gate code; we hand you an empty unit by the deadline.

What Carrollton Folks Tell Us

“We bought into one of those master-planned subdivisions off Legacy and needed to be out of our old place fast. Wade's guys showed up exactly when they said they would and the flat-rate quote I got in writing was the number I actually paid at the end. No surprise line items, which is rare these days.”

Daniel K.

“My old building near Addison Circle had no elevator and I'm on the third floor. I figured these two guys would be dragging by box ten, but they kept a steady pace the whole afternoon and never once complained about the stairs. Hourly rate was fair and they didn't milk the clock.”

“Moving out of a big Coppell home with two kids underfoot is chaos, but the crew handled it like clockwork. They wrapped my grandmother's china hutch better than I would have and everything arrived without a scratch. Wade himself called the day before to confirm the time slot.”

Service Questions

My complex requires a certificate of insurance — can you provide one?
Yes, that's routine. Send us the leasing office's requirements and the building name, and we'll get the certificate of insurance over to them before move day. Most tollway-corridor complexes ask for it, so we have the process down.
Do you move third-floor walk-ups without an elevator?
All the time. Walk-ups are the bread and butter of apartment moves along the tollways. We bring the right dollies, pad the stairwell, and run a larger crew when the climb warrants it so you're not paying for slow trips up and down.
How do you get into a gated community or reserve the elevator?
Pass along the gate code or contact and the building's elevator policy when you book. We'll reserve the elevator for your window and make sure the truck and crew are cleared at the gate, so nothing stalls when we pull up.
Is a small apartment move worth hiring movers for?
For a studio or one-bedroom, two movers usually finish in a few hours, so the hourly bill stays modest — and you skip the August stairwell sweat entirely. We bring all the equipment, so there's nothing to rent or borrow.
