Stephenville sits southwest of us down US-67, the Erath County seat and a college town built around Tarleton State, so our work here swings with the school calendar and the dairy country around it. Two kinds of move keep us busy. Near campus and the courthouse square, we load student apartments, faculty rentals, and the older in-town houses, where the streets are walkable and the carry is short. Out past the city limits, the addresses turn into dairy places and ranch homes off US-281 and the farm roads, with cattle guards, gravel drives, and a barn or shop that needs clearing along with the house. Joe ran hay and cattle himself before he put his name on a truck, so a ranch move with a loaded shop is familiar ground for our crew.
The country jobs are where planning pays off. A long gravel drive in wet weather can be soft on a heavy truck, so we check the approach and, when the ground is iffy, shuttle loads on a smaller rig to keep from rutting your drive or getting stuck. Spring is the season to watch out here, with the thunderstorms, hail, and the occasional tornado threat that comes with sitting on the edge of Tornado Alley, so we keep an eye on the sky and tarp every load before it leaves the porch. August in Erath County runs hot and dry under a burn ban as often as not, and we start those jobs early and keep the cab cool for the drive back toward Glen Rose.
From a Tarleton-area rental to a dairy place out on the farm roads, our two-mover local crews run $110/hr with the truck and gear included, and the flat number is locked in writing before the first load. Joe Powell House Movers is a licensed and insured Texas mover, with our TxDMV household-goods registration, USDOT and MC authority for interstate hauls, and $1M cargo coverage.
