Area overview
Memorial West is a real estate market area rather than a city, so boundaries vary by source. Houston real estate guides commonly describe it as the part of Memorial bordered by I-10 on the north, Buffalo Bayou on the south, Beltway 8 on the east and Highway 6 on the west, mostly in ZIP code 77079. Subdivisions named in that area include Nottingham Forest, Gaywood, Westchester, Wilchester and Rummel Creek, all inside the City of Houston.
Memorial Drive is the main local road, and between Gessner and Highway 6 it carries four lanes past homes, retail and strip centers before ending at the Barker Reservoir dam beside George Bush Park. Town & Country Village, at 12850 Memorial Drive on the Beltway 8 frontage road, holds about 90 shops and services on roughly 43 acres. Along the bayou, Terry Hershey Park spans 496 acres with more than 11 miles of trail.
Housing is a blend of classic ranch-style homes and newer construction, plus townhome communities such as Memorial Club and Nottingham Forest townhomes. Spring Branch ISD serves most of the area, with Memorial High and Stratford High as the zoned high schools, and Katy ISD reaches into some western pockets. The Energy Corridor overlaps the area's western side along the Katy Freeway.

Yes. Along with single-family homes, the area has a number of townhome and condo communities. We plan around shared driveways, parking rules and any community requirements, and we can provide a certificate of insurance at no charge if management asks for one.
Local moves are hourly for actual time worked, with a deposit equal to the two-hour minimum that is refundable if you cancel or reschedule 48+ hours ahead. Long-distance moves get a flat rate with a 15% deposit. Stairs and long carries are never extra.
Usually, yes. Our crews keep working through ordinary rain using floor protectors, shrink-wrap and waterproof pads. If thunderstorms or a hurricane warning make it unsafe, we reschedule at no fee. That matters near Buffalo Bayou, where heavy storms can affect nearby streets.
