Packing is the part of a move that swallows whole weekends. Our San Antonio crews bring the boxes, tape, and wrap to you and pack the whole house — or just the rooms you would rather not touch.
What our packing crews cover
Gilbert Flores leads packing for 1st Priority Movers, working room by room with materials matched to what is in the box. You set the scope — wall-to-wall or a single kitchen.
- Full-house pack: every room boxed, labeled by room, and inventoried before the truck arrives
- Partial pack: kitchens, china cabinets, garages, or art — the rooms most people dread
- Dish-packs and cell kits for glassware, stemware, and ceramics
- Mirror and TV cartons, plus picture and art boxes for framed pieces
- Wardrobe boxes so hanging clothes move straight from closet to truck
- Unpacking on the other end if you want the boxes gone the same day
Packed for the Texas heat
Fragiles ride through a hot truck box and summer humidity. We double-box stemware and corner-block framed art so nothing shifts on I-10 or US-281, and we keep electronics and candles padded away from the heat that builds inside a closed trailer.
How a full pack runs
- Walkthrough first. Send the details with a free flat-rate quote so the price includes the packing labor and materials — no surprise box charges.
- Pack day before load day. For most homes we pack the day before, so the dawn crew loads fast and beats the afternoon heat.
- Label and inventory. Every carton is marked by destination room; high-value items get logged.
- Same coverage as the move. Boxes we pack carry the same $1M cargo protection as everything else on the truck.
Who books full packing in San Antonio
It is the busy households — Pearl-district lofts, Stone Oak families, and Alamo Heights downsizers who simply do not have a free weekend before closing. Packing pairs naturally with a long-distance move, and anything you are not ready to deliver can go into climate-controlled storage. We pack homes across the wider San Antonio area, too.
| Scope | Typical home | What we handle |
|---|---|---|
| Full pack | 3–4 bedroom in Stone Oak / Alamo Heights | Whole house, all breakables, garage |
| Kitchen + breakables | Loft or condo near the Pearl | Dishes, glass, art, electronics |
| Fragile-only | Any home with a china hutch or wine collection | Stemware, ceramics, framed art |

What It Runs
A two-mover team runs $110/hr (two-hour minimum); a three-mover team is $150/hr, and bigger jobs lock one flat figure on paper before we start
Two of our own W-2 movers, a padded truck, dollies, shrink wrap and moving blankets — the entire San Antonio job folded into a single Texas rate.
