Your mover should own the truck that leaves Austin. Evolution is a licensed household goods carrier, not a broker, so the crew that wraps your sofa is the crew that sets it down in College Station. Our movers are full-time employees, background checked and trained before they lift a box. The founding brothers learned the trade at an Austin moving company and still run Evolution today. See how our Austin long haul crews work.

Road Notes
Austin to College Station Route Plan
Trucks leaving south Austin ride Ben White east, pass the airport on SH 71 and stay on it to Bastrop. From there the route bends northeast onto SH 21 through Paige and Caldwell, and SH 47 with George Bush Drive brings the truck into College Station. Loads from southwest Austin may first cross US 290 and SH 71 between RM 1826 and MoPac, a stretch named on the 2025 Texas 100 congestion list. We start those jobs before the morning rush and fuel up in Bastrop, ahead of the quiet farm miles.
At the Austin end, Menchaca Road carries bike lanes that city crews sweep after 311 requests, so a truck should not sit at that curb. We stage on a side street or in your driveway and roll dollies across the gap. In College Station, the city is weighing no-parking rules for Newton Road, Angus Street, Kerry Street and part of Park Place, with an open house on October 15. If your new address sits close by, we confirm the curb before the truck rolls.
Before load day, our team studies your walkthrough for big pieces, stairs and tight doorways. That tells us how many movers to send and which truck fits each street. We sketch where the truck parks at both homes, and one coordinator keeps you posted from the first call to the last box. Meet our Austin moving team to see who handles your job.
Before the Truck Arrives
- Clear the Menchaca Road driveway early
- Pack a cooler for the Caldwell stretch
- Ask your new HOA about truck hours
- Send HR the written price early
- Book a morning slot in summer
- Measure doorways at the College Station house
- Forward mail from your Austin ZIP code
- Label boxes for each Brazos Valley room
Tick these off the week before your truck heads east on SH 71.

How Much Does an Austin to College Station Move Cost?
Weight drives the number, because pounds decide crew size and truck space. We then account for stairs, long walks to the door, packing and any stored items. The result is a not-to-exceed figure on paper, a ceiling your bill cannot pass unless you add work and approve it.
| Your home | Approx. load | Team | Typical cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio or 1 bedroom | 1,500 to 3,500 lbs | 2 movers, 1 truck | $900 to $1,100 |
| 2 to 3 bedrooms | 4,000 to 8,000 lbs | 3 movers, 1 truck | $1,100 to $1,300 |
| 4+ bedrooms | 9,000 to 13,000 lbs | 4 movers, 2 trucks | $1,300 to $1,500 |
Each range covers the crew, the truck, fuel, any tolls past the airport and the full drive to your new door. Card payments carry a 2.5% fee.

College Station is a younger, student-heavy town where commutes stay short and homes cost less than in Austin. For a mover, that often means more house for the same budget, or the option to rent near campus for a year before buying. Short drives also make a home on the edge of town easier to live with. Settle your square footage first, then we size the truck to the house you pick.
One cost the table misses: homes in the city’s extraterritorial jurisdiction may sit inside a Municipal Utility District. The city explains that a MUD is a taxing body that may set charges, fees and taxes to pay for water, sewer and drainage built for the area. Ask the seller or builder for the district rate before you sign. Read the city’s MUD overview.
College Station Realities to Plan For
- Texas A&M has more than 80,000 students, so lease timing matters near campus
- Easterwood Airport offers nonstop flights to DFW for quick work trips
- Buses run on a joint city and Texas A&M network, the 7th largest in Texas
- Blinn College and TEEX offer job training tied to local employers
Leaving Austin: South Austin Garages
South Austin houses off Menchaca Road often hold years of shelving, tools and patio sets. Every pound shows up on the bill, since the price follows weight. Sort the garage two weekends early and donate what the new place cannot hold. Downsizing a parent too? The South Austin Senior Activity Center, a city parks facility for adults 50 and older, hosts resource classes on housing and finance.
Settling into College Station HOAs
Edelweiss Estates, Emerald Forest, Williams Creek and Steeplechase all appear on the city's March 2025 list of active neighborhood and homeowner groups. Your own association may limit truck hours or gate access. Check those rules before you pick a date, then share them with us. Send us the move-in sheet, gate code and any curb limits a week ahead, and we plan the unload around them.
New Job in Biotech or Logistics
Hiring here reaches well past campus. FUJIFILM Biotechnologies runs the largest single-use biomanufacturing campus in North America in College Station, backed by a $300 million expansion. FERA Diagnostics and Biologicals is building a 51,855-square-foot headquarters, and Hunton Trane is adding two warehouse buildings. If your employer pays for the move, send HR our written figure early so the budget clears before your first day.
Brazos Valley Heat Season
NWS records for College Station put the average first 90-degree day near April 30 and the last near October 12, with about 102 such days a year. On those runs we start early and pad and shrink-wrap furniture. Candles, vinyl records, paint and electronics go on last, so they spend less time in the box truck. Keep medicine and pets in your cool car.

Austin Team
Your College Station Move Begins with Our Austin Crew
Our Austin team reviews your walkthrough video, picks the truck size and sets the crew count before you book. Because a load from southwest Austin can stall on Ben White near MoPac, we schedule those starts early. Google lists our Austin profile as a service-area business serving Austin and nearby areas, so the crew comes straight to your home. Call (512) 595-3003 Monday to Saturday from 7:30 AM to 7:30 PM; we are closed Sunday. While your load is on the highway, your coordinator answers texts, shares arrival updates and lines up the unloading crew waiting in College Station.
What sets your College Station price:
- Total weight of everything you ship
- Number of movers your home needs
- Stairs and long carries at each door
- Move-in rules from your new HOA
- Street parking limits at the College Station address
- Texas A&M home game dates near delivery
- Packing, crating and storage you add
- Shared or dedicated truck choice
Your price shifts only when your list does, and only after you sign off on the change in writing.
