Know the Villages
The Memorial Villages are six separate municipalities: Bunker Hill Village, Hedwig Village, Hilshire Village, Hunters Creek Village, Piney Point Village and Spring Valley Village. Most incorporated in 1954 and 1955, when residents wanted local zoning and wanted to avoid annexation by Houston. Today they form a contiguous block of mostly single-family neighborhoods surrounded by Houston, largely inside ZIP code 77024. For a move, that independence matters: permit offices, contractor hours and resident services change at each city line, even when the street name stays the same.
Public safety is shared in some villages and separate in others. The Memorial Villages Police Department, headquartered on Memorial Drive, patrols Bunker Hill, Hunters Creek and Piney Point. Hedwig Village has run its own police force since 1977, and Spring Valley's officers cover Hilshire. The Village Fire Department, created in 1978 and based on Corbindale, answers calls in all six. Homeowners leaving a house empty for a few days during a move can ask their department for a house watch.
Memorial Drive narrows to two lanes through Hunters Creek, Piney Point and most of Bunker Hill, and the side streets curve under mature trees with ditches instead of curbs in many spots. We look at truck placement ahead of time so a driveway or school route is never blocked. Spring Branch ISD serves most Villages addresses, and Memorial High School on Echo Lane in Hedwig Village shapes weekday traffic, so we avoid drop-off and pickup times when the route passes the campus.
Confirm which village your home is in, because a Houston, TX 77024 mailing address does not show which city's permits and rules apply.Ask your village police department for a house watch on the nights the home sits empty between move-out and closing.Plan where the truck will park on two-lane Memorial Drive or a narrow side lane so neighbors and school traffic can still get by.Book a mid-week, mid-month date if you can, since May through August and month-end weekends fill up first.Call your village about water and trash account changes early, since several villages handle these services outside the City of Houston.

FAQ's
Questions we hear most from people moving in, out of or between the Memorial Villages.
There are six: Bunker Hill Village, Hedwig Village, Hilshire Village, Hunters Creek Village, Piney Point Village and Spring Valley Village. Each is an incorporated city with its own mayor and council, even though most mailing addresses read Houston. Tera Moving serves all six, along with the surrounding Memorial and Spring Branch neighborhoods of Houston.
They can. Each village writes its own rules, and Bunker Hill and Piney Point, for example, bar permitted construction work on Sundays. A household move is not construction, but we keep loading to reasonable daytime hours, park with care on narrow lanes, and check with the village first if a container or extra vehicle needs to stay on the property.
Yes. Small parts of Hunters Creek Village and Piney Point Village lie south of Buffalo Bayou in ZIP code 77063 and are zoned to Houston ISD schools, while the rest of the Villages sit north of the bayou in Spring Branch ISD. We handle moves on either side and between them.
Yes. Saturdays and Sundays cost the same hourly rate as weekdays. Holiday weekends book up quickly, so reach out three or more weeks ahead. We suggest booking at least a week in advance in general, and we fit in last-minute moves when the schedule allows.
Yes. Many Villages buyers replace an older ranch house with a new custom home, which leaves a gap between move-out and move-in. Tera Moving offers overnight, week-long and month-to-month storage, then delivers to the finished house when it is ready for furniture.
Yes. Tera Moving is licensed for interstate moves under USDOT 4264678 and MC1655284, and holds Texas TxDMV #010277202C. Long-distance moves get a flat rate that locks once confirmed, a 15% deposit, and on most jobs the same crew loads and delivers your belongings.
