Manor at a glance
Manor was laid out in 1872 when the Houston and Texas Central Railway came through, and it takes its name from settler James B. Manor, who lived on Gilleland Creek. In its early decades the town shipped cotton, cottonseed and grain. It sits in Travis County roughly 12 miles northeast of Austin, and its ZIP code is 78653.
Growth has been dramatic. The population rose from about 5,000 in 2010 to 13,652 in the 2020 census, and the city reports more than 21,000 residents inside city limits now, with thousands more in its extraterritorial jurisdiction. That growth comes from new subdivisions on open prairie land, so many of our Manor moves are into homes that were just finished. New neighborhoods often have HOA rules about truck parking.
U.S. Highway 290 runs through the city, and Manor sits at the junction with the SH 130 toll road, which offers a fast route north toward Pflugerville and Round Rock or south toward the airport. Manor ISD serves most of the city, while a small part falls in Elgin ISD. The film What's Eating Gilbert Grape was shot in Manor, a fun fact for newcomers.

FAQ's
What people moving to or from Manor usually want to know.
Yes, often. Manor has added thousands of homes in new subdivisions. We protect new floors and walls, assemble beds and furniture at no extra fee, and place items room by room. If your closing date moves, we can hold your belongings in storage.
Yes. US 290 connects Manor with Houston, and Houston is our home base, so this is a natural route for us. Long-distance moves get a flat rate that locks in once confirmed with a 15% deposit, and the same crew usually loads and delivers.
We recommend at least a week. For holiday weekends, book three weeks or more ahead. Mid-week, mid-month dates have the most openings, and we accommodate last-minute moves whenever the schedule allows. If your builder has not confirmed a closing date yet, we can pencil in a tentative date and adjust it once you know.
Yes. We sell boxes and supplies if you want to pack yourself, or our crew can do full or partial packing with all materials supplied. Partial packing of the kitchen and fragile items is the most popular choice.
We take cash, check, Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Zelle and Venmo. Payment is collected after the post-move walkthrough, once you have confirmed everything arrived and was placed where you wanted it. Nothing is charged on move day beyond the deposit you already paid, and the estimate spells out how billing works.
Thank you for considering us for your moving needs. We will get back to you during normal business hours.
