Why Milestone Moving Co. Is Arlington’s Preferred Packing Services Company
We’ve been in continuous operation since 2006, and our 90-Day Done Right Promise applies to every box we pack in Arlington. That means if something we packed arrives damaged, one call brings a crew or a check - not a claim form that disappears into a subcontractor’s voicemail.
Our Arlington customers come back because we put the quote in writing after a real survey of your home. The number doesn’t move on packing day, at the truck, or at delivery. We’ve heard every horror story about quotes that doubled once the crew had your dishes in their hands. We don’t operate that way.
Background-checked, uniformed movers on our own payroll handle every Arlington job. Never day labor sourced from a text message. One crew, start to finish.
Live person answers every call, 24/7 - before the move, during the move, and when you need us 90 days later. That’s the accountability Arlington families are actually shopping for.
Our Packing Services in Arlington
Full Packing Service
We pack everything - kitchens, bedrooms, garages, attics. In Arlington’s older neighborhoods near I-30 and SH-360, we regularly see 1960s-era ranch homes with single-car garages crammed with decades of accumulation. In south Arlington’s newer subdivisions, the challenge flips: massive square footage spread across two stories with winding staircases that slow every carry. Our full packing service runs $300-$1,600, and we bring every supply - no U-Haul runs for you.
Partial Packing
Many Arlington customers pack the easy rooms themselves and hand us the headaches: kitchens, china cabinets, electronics. We’re fine with that. During August move-in season near UT Arlington’s campus, when the 40,000-student surge collapses local crew availability, partial packing lets us focus on what you can’t risk doing yourself while you handle the rest.
Unpacking Service
We don’t just drop boxes and leave. Our unpacking service puts your kitchen back together, breaks down the debris, and hauls it away. For new builds in master-planned communities, this matters - you’re already managing builder punch lists, Wi-Fi setup, and garage door opener registration. We clear the cardboard so you can focus on the house.
Fragile & Art Packing
This is where our Packing Services team earns its reputation. Arlington’s newer homes often feature custom art, oversized mirrors, and delicate fixtures that builder-grade packing won’t protect. We use Uline-rated materials and Milwaukee tools for custom builds, and everything we pack carries full-value protection. If we packed it, we’re accountable for it.
Custom Crating
Antique furniture, oversized TVs, wine collections - some items need more than a box. Our custom crating runs $300-$1,600 and is built on-site to the item’s exact dimensions. In Viridian and similar south Arlington communities, we’ve crated everything from grand pianos to built-in aquariums for moves that standard packing can’t handle.
Packing Supplies & Boxes
We stock professional-grade supplies on every Arlington job: dish barrels, wardrobe boxes (free on full-service moves), mirror cartons, and paper by the pound. No running to Ryder rental centers or big-box stores for supplies that won’t hold up on the truck. Our crews arrive with everything measured and ready.
Trusted Brands We Service in Arlington
We work with Uline packing materials, Milwaukee power tools for custom crate assembly, and Ryder truck fleets for larger Arlington commercial jobs. Our trucks carry full inventories of boxes, tape, and protective wrap - no waiting on supply runs through Arlington’s Entertainment District gridlock on Cowboys or Rangers game days. When I-30 and SH-360 lock up for 80,000-seat events, our pre-stocked trucks keep moving.
Common Packing Problems We See in Arlington Homes
- Underestimating heat exposure. Packing on exposed driveways in south Arlington’s 100°F summers can cause heat exhaustion for crew and damage to heat-sensitive items without proper hydration and shade protocols. We start early and rotate breaks.
- Assuming builder-grade doors are move-in ready. New homes in master-planned communities often have misaligned garage door tracks that jam, delaying packing and moving schedules. We inspect before loading.
- Wi-Fi opener hiccups. Smart openers in newer homes may drop connection during packing when many devices are on the network. Our team pre-pairs and tests them to avoid lockouts mid-move.
- Ignoring the August student surge. UT Arlington’s roughly 40,000 enrolled students create a two-week compression every August that collapses local crew availability. Jobs booked even a week out can go unfilled.

FAQs - Packing Services in Arlington
Yes, we pack garage contents including tool chests, sports equipment, and seasonal storage. Heavy items get reinforced boxes or custom crating, and we always inspect builder-grade garage door tracks before starting to avoid jams that delay the schedule. Call (855) 890-3455 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
Yes, we provide smart myQ upgrades when requested. During a move-out in the Viridian neighborhood (76002), our crew tackled a garage full of partially packed boxes. The builder-installed door opener had no Wi-Fi connectivity, so we provided a smart myQ upgrade after safely packing the homeowner’s fragile china. We also used extra padding on the winding staircase to prevent damage to the custom crated art. Call (855) 890-3455 to add this to your packing service.
We start early, rotate crew breaks, and use shade protocols for heat-sensitive items. Arlington’s North Texas summers routinely exceed 100°F from late June through September, making outdoor loading on exposed driveways a genuine heat-safety concern. Early-morning start times and crew hydration are standard operating practice. Call (855) 890-3455 to schedule your packing date - we avoid midday heat when possible.
We pad staircases, use team carries for oversized items, and often rig custom crating for tight turns. Newer master-planned subdivisions in south Arlington from the 1990s-2000s feature heavy two-story layouts with winding staircases that slow furniture carries considerably. Our crews are trained to these layouts. Call (855) 890-3455 for a free in-home survey - we’ll measure the tight spots and quote accordingly.
Yes, our unpacking service clears boxes, reassembles furniture, and hauls debris. For new builds in master-planned communities, this matters - you’re already managing builder punch lists, Wi-Fi setup, and garage door opener registration. We clear the cardboard so you can focus on the house. Call (855) 890-3455 to add unpacking to your packing quote - estimates are free.
