Movers in Acton, TX | Joe Powell House Movers

Acton is the Hood County community just east of Granbury, an old settlement best known for the little Acton State Historic Site, the smallest state park in Texas, set around the cemetery where Davy Crockett’s widow is buried. The area has filled in with homes over the years, a lot of them within reach of Lake Granbury, so an Acton move often blends two of our specialties: established country and acreage homes on one hand, and lake-area places on the other. We carry families out of long-held homes off the farm roads and we load weekend places near the water, sometimes in the same week. Joe crewed for a moving outfit over in Granbury before starting the company, so this stretch east of town is ground he has worked for years.

The lake-area homes here carry the same wrinkles we know from up and down the shoreline: long sloped drives, an entry set below where the truck parks, and the odd tight turn down toward the water. We look over the route first and add hands when that walk gets long. The country places off the farm roads can sit behind a gate on a gravel drive, so we read the ground and pick the right rig, especially after rain. Spring storms with hail and a tornado watch now and then come with the calendar on this edge of Tornado Alley, so we track the radar and keep loads covered on the way out. Summer runs hot, often near or past 100, so we begin early and run the cab cold for the drive home.

From a farm-road acreage home to a lake-area place near the water, our two-mover local crews run $110/hr with the truck and gear included, and the flat number goes in writing. Joe Powell House Movers is a licensed and insured Texas mover, with our TxDMV household-goods registration, USDOT and MC authority on file, and $1M cargo coverage.
