My daughter moved to a new apartment on Friday, 7/31/26. I was at her old place to greet the three gentlemen who arrived to help us with her move. The three were absolutely perfect. They made the move such a delight and I had fun talking to them while they were working. They were extremely fast and so careful with all of her possessions. We will definitely be calling Blue Ox Moving & Storage in the future!

They did a really good job of moving my home from Katy to the other part of Katy. Nothing got broken and they were polite and courteous. Definitely one of the better experiences I’ve had with a moving company and pricing was fair. James was great for work with and even let us borrow tools and step ladder as we had those packed away.

Yes. We measure the new home and plan where each piece goes, so only what fits makes the trip.
