Fast, Reliable Moving & Storage Across Irving
Moving and storage in Irving, TX typically runs $450-$2,500 for local moves and $90-$400 monthly for climate-controlled storage, with most jobs scheduled within 24-48 hours of your call. Our Moving & Storage team knows Irving’s split personality: the 1950s ranch homes off O’Connor Road with carports and narrow halls, and the glass towers rising above Lake Carolyn where a move can’t start without the right paperwork. We’ve been handling both since 2006. Call (855) 890-3455 for a free in-home or video estimate - we’ll put the number in writing, and it won’t change.
Irving sits at the crossroads of corporate Texas. The Las Colinas Urban Center holds one of the densest concentrations of Fortune 500 campuses in the state, and DFW International Airport drives constant inbound and outbound relocation volume you won’t find in Grand Prairie or Carrollton. That means company-paid transfers with hard start dates, procurement teams vetting every certificate and claims record, and zero tolerance for a crew that shows up unprepared. We know the buildings, the property managers, and the protocols. Our trucks are garaged in the metro, stocked with Uline packing supplies and Milwaukee moving equipment, and our crews are on our payroll - background-checked, uniformed, and trained to headquarters standards.
Why Milestone Moving Co. Is Irving’s Preferred Moving & Storage Company
We’ve served Irving for over 20 years. Our crews have carried dressers out of 75060 bungalows with 7-foot ceilings, navigated freight elevators at the Mondrian and the Towers at Williams Square, and staged container loads for corporate transferees whose closing dates shifted three times. That range of experience matters here because Irving’s housing stock doesn’t give you one standard job - it gives you a dozen.
Our reputation in Irving is built on one thing: the quote we write down is the price you pay. After a real in-person or video survey, we give you a binding written quote backed by our Move-Right Guarantee. The number doesn’t move on the ramp, at delivery, or because the elevator took longer than expected. Our 90-Day Done Right Promise means if anything we moved or packed isn’t right, one call brings a crew or a check - not a subcontractor, not a claim form that disappears into a third-party system.
Response time to Irving is same-day or next-day for most requests. A live person answers every call, 24/7, before your move, during your move, and at the claims desk. We’ve had Irving customers call us at 11 p.m. because their closing got pushed, and someone picked up who could actually reschedule the crew.
We also understand what breaks a move in this market. Summer temperatures in Irving regularly hit 100°F from June through August. A sealed trailer sitting in a Las Colinas loading dock while crews wait for a freight elevator can cook electronics, warp musical instruments, and ruin a wine collection. We plan for that. We don’t just show up with a truck and hope.
Our Moving & Storage Services in Irving
Container Storage
Container storage in Irving is built for the gap between closing and closing - the week or month when your new place isn’t ready and your old place is already sold. We deliver a weather-sealed container to your Irving home or apartment, you load at your pace (or we load for you), and we haul it to our secure facility. For Las Colinas residents, this solves a specific problem: many high-rise buildings restrict move-out windows to weekdays and limit how long a truck can sit at the loading dock. A container lets you load across multiple days without fighting the building’s schedule. For acreage properties in 75060 or 75061, we can position containers on a hard surface near your detached workshop, avoiding long carries across gravel or grass.
Climate-Controlled Storage
Climate-controlled storage in Irving runs $90-$400 per month and protects what North Texas heat destroys. Our units maintain stable temperature and humidity, which matters for electronics, artwork, musical instruments, and wine collections - the kind of cargo we regularly move for corporate transferees arriving through DFW. Irving’s summer heat isn’t a minor inconvenience; it’s a documented threat to sensitive materials. In older ranch homes without basements, attics can hit 140°F. If your closing’s delayed or you’re staging a home in Valley Ranch, climate-controlled storage keeps your belongings in the condition they left your house. Every full-service move includes free wardrobe boxes, and we can pack heat-sensitive items with thermal-grade materials before they ever reach the unit.
Storage-in-Transit
Storage-in-Transit is designed for corporate relocations and complex closings where your delivery date is uncertain. Your belongings are loaded once, sealed in the truck or container, and held at our facility until you’re ready. For Irving’s corporate relocation market - the employee transfers from headquarters in Las Colinas, the overseas arrivals through DFW - this is essential. Procurement teams and HR departments vet movers for exactly this capability: can you hold the shipment if the apartment isn’t ready? Can you deliver on 48 hours’ notice when the visa finally clears? We can. The price we quote includes the hold period, so you’re not negotiating storage fees while you’re still in temporary housing.
Short-Term and Long-Term Storage
Short-term storage in Irving typically covers 1-30 days - enough for a closing delay, a renovation, or a between-apartments gap. Long-term storage runs 30 days to multiple years, often for corporate transferees on extended assignments or families downsizing from a 75062 ranch to a Las Colinas condo. Both options are available with standard or climate-controlled units. We inventory every item, photograph condition at intake, and maintain chain of custody. When you’re ready, one crew delivers - not a subcontractor, not a brokered driver who can’t find your unit.

Trusted Brands We Service in Irving
We stock Uline packing materials, Milwaukee hand trucks and dollies, and maintain our own fleet of Ryder and U-Haul spec trucks sized for Irving’s range of jobs - from tight ranch-home driveways to high-rise loading docks with 12-foot clearance limits. For heavy or oversized items common on Irving acreage properties, we carry specialized equipment: piano boards, safe jacks, and extra-heavy-duty dollies rated for workshop machinery and oversized doors. Parts and supplies are stocked locally, so if a strap frays or a pad tears mid-move, we replace it on the spot. No waiting, no improvising.
Common Moving & Storage Problems We See in Irving Homes
- Las Colinas loading dock rejections. Crews without building-specific certificates of insurance or freight elevator reservations get turned away at towers along Lake Carolyn, causing same-day cancellations and costly delays. We submit COIs naming the property manager as additional insured, often at $2M+ liability minimums, and book elevators weeks ahead.
- Heat damage during summer moves. Underestimating Irving’s 100°F+ summers leads to heat exhaustion for untrained crews and ruined cargo in sealed trucks. We schedule early-morning loads when possible, use thermal blankets for sensitive items, and never leave a loaded trailer sitting during restricted elevator windows.
- Narrow halls and low ceilings in older ranch homes. The 1950s-1970s stock in 75060, 75061, and 75062 features carports instead of garages, 7-foot ceilings, and tight turns that standard dollies can’t navigate. We measure doorways during the survey and bring low-profile equipment when needed.
- Underestimating acreage property logistics. Detached workshops with heavy equipment, long gravel drives, and oversized doors require dollies and lifting capacity that generic movers don’t carry. We’ve moved full woodshops and metalworking equipment from properties near Belt Line Road - jobs that needed two crews and specialized rigging.

Pricing for Moving & Storage in Irving, TX
Here’s what moving and storage costs in Irving’s market. These are binding ranges after a real in-home or video survey - the number we write down is the number you pay.
| Service | Price Range in Irving |
|---|---|
| Local Move | $450-$2,500 |
| Long Distance Move | $2,500-$9,000 |
| Packing Service | $300-$1,600 |
| Climate-Controlled Storage (Monthly) | $90-$400 |
What moves the needle within these ranges: distance between origin and destination, volume of belongings, need for packing materials, specialty items like pianos or safes, and building access restrictions. A Las Colinas high-rise with elevator reservations and COI requirements takes more coordination than a single-story ranch with a driveway pull-up. We factor all of this into the survey, not as surprise charges on move day. Current offers include $250 off moves over $2,500, free wardrobe boxes on every full-service move, and free in-home or video estimates. Call (855) 890-3455 for your exact quote.

FAQs - Moving & Storage in Irving
Yes. Every major residential tower along Lake Carolyn - the Mondrian, the Towers at Williams Square, and comparable buildings - requires movers to submit a certificate of insurance naming the property management company as additional insured, typically with a $2 million general liability minimum, before any move can begin. We maintain these policies and submit documentation during booking, not the morning of. Call (855) 890-3455 and we’ll confirm your building’s specific requirements.
Pack heat-sensitive items last, unload them first, and never let them sit in a sealed truck during extended elevator waits. We use thermal blankets and climate-controlled transport for high-value collections, and we schedule Las Colinas high-rise moves to minimize time between loading dock and unit. For artwork and wine, climate-controlled storage at our facility protects against the 100°F+ days common in Irving from June through August. Call (855) 890-3455 to discuss thermal packing options.
Yes. We’ve moved full woodshops, metalworking equipment, and oversized doors from detached workshops on Irving acreage properties. These jobs require extra-heavy-duty dollies, safe jacks, and often a two-crew lift - equipment and manpower that generic movers don’t carry. We survey the site beforehand, measure access paths, and bring the right rigging. Call (855) 890-3455 for a binding quote that includes specialized handling.
Yes. Our Storage-in-Transit program holds your sealed shipment at our secure facility until your delivery date firms up, with delivery available on 48 hours’ notice. This is built for Irving’s corporate relocation market, where visa approvals, temporary housing extensions, and closing delays routinely shift timelines. The storage period is included in your binding quote, not billed as an add-on. Call (855) 890-3455 to set up a corporate relocation plan.
Book 4-6 weeks ahead for Las Colinas high-rise moves, primarily to secure your freight elevator reservation and allow time for COI review and approval. Building management often requires elevator bookings weeks in advance and restricts move-in to weekday windows. We handle the paperwork, but we can’t expedite a building’s internal process. For standard ranch-home moves in 75060 or 75061, 2-3 weeks is usually sufficient. Call (855) 890-3455 to check current availability.
