Guard shacks in Cinco Ranch, Cross Creek Ranch, Elyson, and Firethorne don’t wave a moving truck through on a phone call — they check a list, and if your HOA move-in reservation and certificate of insurance aren’t on it, the truck sits at the gate while someone tracks down the property manager. Dalton Ferris spent enough mornings stuck at those gates before founding JC Moving Company in 2017 that filing the paperwork ahead of time became a fixed step in how the office books every job, not an afterthought handled after a crew is already circling the cul-de-sac. From May through September, Marcus Boudreaux and Nadia Okafor have crews loading before 7am to beat the worst of the Gulf Coast humidity, with extra tie-downs on the truck for the sudden afternoon thunderstorms that roll through Katy most summer weeks. Local jobs across Katy, Fulshear, and the surrounding suburbs price hourly — $115 for two movers, $149 for three, $183 for four — set to your home size on the estimate call.
What Comes With It
- HOA move-in reservation and certificate of insurance filed ahead of the gate
- Crew size and truck matched to home size at booking
- Pre-7am loading May through September to beat the heat
- Extra tie-downs for sudden Gulf-driven thunderstorms
- Furniture pads and shrink wrap on every load
- Basic disassembly and reassembly of beds, tables, and shelving
- Basic released-value coverage included at no charge
What You’ll Pay
Two ways to book it: $115/hr for a two-mover crew, or a flat number by home size starting near $1,850 if you’d rather lock in a total up front
Truck, blankets, and dollies are built into the rate, not billed as extras: $115 for two movers, $149 for three, $183 for four, or a flat figure by bedroom count if you’d rather skip the clock. Addresses inside a gated community get their HOA paperwork filed ahead of the move at no extra charge, so the crew isn’t stuck waiting at the gatehouse. Basic released-value coverage rides on every job standard, and Kellan will walk you through the full-value upgrade on the estimate call if you want the higher payout ceiling.
