Richmond has been the Fort Bend county seat since 1837, and the streets around the historic courthouse square still follow that old townsite grid. Lots run narrow, some of the older houses only have alley access, and street parking is the only option on a few blocks near downtown. Kellan Truitt writes most of the Richmond estimates and asks upfront whether a house sits in that older grid or out in the newer subdivisions past the county fairgrounds, since the two call for different truck placement. Homes near the square sometimes need a shorter shuttle from truck to door, newer construction gets a straight pull-up instead. Either way it’s the same crew and the same released-value coverage on every job, no different rules for the historic side of town.
What a Richmond Move Runs
A two-mover crew starts at $115/hr, or Kellan sizes up a flat rate by bedroom count once he’s walked the job, starting near $1,850
The rate doesn’t change whether the address is in Richmond, a starter home a few blocks off the highway, or a two-story set back in a new subdivision — released-value coverage is already built into every number JC Moving gives you, and nothing gets added once the crew’s finished loading.
