Why San Antonio Books 1st Priority Movers
From King William porches to Stone Oak cul-de-sacs and the Loop 1604 corridor, a crew that knows the Alamo City block by block.
Dawn Loadouts Beat the Heat
When the South Texas thermometer climbs past 100, a summer move can’t wait until noon. Our San Antonio crew rolls up at first light, hydrates as it works, and keeps your wood and electronics in climate-controlled storage so nothing warps or cracks in the heat anywhere across Bexar County and the greater Alamo City metro.
Built for Military PCS
With Lackland, Randolph, and Fort Sam Houston all inside Joint Base San Antonio, a big share of our work is PCS orders. We know the flat-rate paperwork, the short-fuse timelines, and how to get a service family loaded and gone without a single surprise line item.
One Flat Written Rate
Your figure is set on paper before a single box leaves your San Antonio door, and it holds even when Loop 410 jams or the job runs long. Local jobs get that one flat number; longer hauls out I-10 or I-35 come back as a binding written total — nothing added at the curb on delivery day.
No Brokers, No Handoffs
Every truck at a San Antonio curb wears the 1st Priority Movers name, and each mover on it is a W-2 employee — never a contractor pulled off a board. Your load is never handed to an outside carrier; one San Antonio company packs it, drives it, and carries it in.
Fully Insured, $1M Cargo
We run as a registered, insured Texas household-goods mover — TxDMV 006789123C for intrastate work, with USDOT/MC authority for moves that cross a state line. A $1 million cargo policy backs every San Antonio job.
On Time Across the Metro
A two-hour arrival window and a call the moment the truck leaves the yard. We route around the US-281 and I-35 crawl and the Loop 1604 build-out so your closing date and move-out deadline stay exactly where you set them.
Packing & Supplies Included
Pack the whole house or just the rooms that keep you up at night. Cartons, pads, dollies, and shrink film ride on the truck before the crew pulls out of the yard, so the wrapping begins the minute we step into your San Antonio place.
Specialty Moves Handled
Pianos, gun safes, and oversized pieces get the right boards, straps, and a crew chief who has wound them down the tight staircases of King William two-stories and through gated Dominion entrances with the HOA insurance papers already in hand.
Free Estimate in 1 Hour
Send over the details of your move and someone who actually sits in the San Antonio office — not a call bank — writes back your flat figure, usually within the business hour, no obligation attached.

Learn More →Long-Distance Moving
One written number and one 1st Priority crew for the whole run out of the Alamo City, whether you're rolling up I-35 to Austin or Dallas, east on I-10 to Houston or El Paso, or down I-37 to Corpus Christi. The movers who load you in San Antonio are the ones who unload you on the far end.
Learn More →Residential Moving
Whole-house moves for the limestone customs, two-story brick homes, and master-planned subdivisions across the metro, from King William to The Dominion. We blanket the hardwood, guard the door casings, and put one rate in writing that still reads the same on move day.
Learn More →Apartment & Condo Moving
Lofts, condos, and high-rise units around the Pearl, Southtown, and the downtown towers, plus the tight historic staircases in Monte Vista and the elevator buildings off Loop 1604. We lock in the freight elevator and pull the parking permit so move-in day stays clean.
Learn More →Full Packing
Our packers crate the entire house or just the kitchen and the breakables, with heavy wrap on anything fragile that has to ride through a Texas summer. Whatever we box up travels under the same coverage as the rest of the truck.
Learn More →Short-Term Storage
Climate-controlled storage by the month so your wood furniture, electronics, and art never bake in a hot garage between closings. When your dates don't sync up around Bexar County, your belongings wait cool, dry, and locked until you're set.
Learn More →Piano Moving
We're a full-service San Antonio mover, not a piano-only outfit, but the crew handles uprights and baby grands week in and week out with the right boards, straps, and trained hands. Give Ruben the instrument and the route and it gets its own line on your flat rate.
Learn More →Loading & Unloading
Already booked the rental truck or the pod? Our crew brings the muscle to load or unload it tight, which suits downsizers, students, and DIY moves from Leon Valley to New Braunfels. Hire two, three, or four movers by the hour with nothing tacked on after.
Learn More →Senior Moving
Calm, unrushed downsizing for the 55-plus communities around Stone Oak, Boerne, and Windcrest and anyone rightsizing across the metro. We help sort, pack, and set up what's coming along, then store or donate the rest, all on one rate written down before move day.

Our 5-star reputation comes from San Antonio families and service members we’ve moved since 2012.
“Glad I chose them for my move. The crew worked hard and took care of all my stuff.”
“these guys made my move so much easier than I expected. they showed up on time, wrapped everything up carefully, and got it all into the new place without a single scratch. nothing got damaged and they never wasted any time. i would use them again and recommend them to anyone who needs movers.”
“Absolutely outstanding! Andre and crew were absolutely the best. They unloaded the stuff from my house, reloaded it back in our new place and they were done before five absolutely outstanding.”
“They were very efficient and professional and even got us packed in the Texas heat!”
A Note From Ruben
“I grew up on San Antonio’s South Side and spent years on the back of a truck before I started 1st Priority Movers in 2012. I’d watched too many neighbors — young airmen on PCS orders, retirees downsizing out of two-story King William homes, families finally moving up to Stone Oak — get a low number on the phone and a fat one once the truck was loaded. I wanted a hometown Alamo City company that puts a real flat rate in writing, runs its own trucks and W-2 crews, starts at dawn to beat the heat, and never hands your boxes to a stranger. That is the company we show up for every morning.”
