Austin Moving Co, Est. 2016 — 48% Growth, 4.9★ Across 650 Reviews
Business Description
Boxer Buddies is a full-service residential and commercial moving company founded in 2016 and serving the Austin metropolitan area. The company operates from two leased locations — a sales office in Bee Cave serving the Lake Travis and western Austin market, and an operations center in South Austin — plus four dedicated truck spots at a South Austin yard that serves as the daily dispatch point for the fleet.
The business handles local, intrastate, and interstate relocations, with additional revenue from packing services, materials, valuation coverage, and both job-based and recurring storage.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Revenue has grown from $712,749 in 2024 to $1,021,264 in 2025. The first seven months of 2026 produced $884,814 — a 48% increase over the same period in the prior year, and a pace consistent with approximately $1.5 million for the full year. This growth was achieved organically within the existing service area, without acquisition.
REVENUE MIX (2026 YEAR TO DATE)
Local moves — $431,672 (49%) Interstate moves — $174,797 (20%) Trip fees — $92,947 (11%) Intrastate moves — $64,560 (7%) Packing services — $43,553 (5%) Materials surcharge — $35,215 (4%) Additional services — $28,927 (3%) Valuation coverage — $23,197 (3%) Storage income — $10,004 (1%)
ASSETS AND OPERATIONS
The company owns its fleet rather than relying on rentals, with vehicles and equipment carried at $342,566 original cost and $162,979 net book value, including a 2026 Freightliner M2-106. Operations run on SmartMoving, the industry-standard CRM and dispatch platform, giving a new owner documented workflows for estimating, scheduling, dispatch, and customer communication from day one.
The company employs 12 full-time staff, 4 part-time staff, and 1 contractor across crews, dispatch, sales, and administration.
Boxer Buddies holds licensed interstate operating authority — a durable competitive barrier, as most local independent movers cannot legally perform cross-state moves. Interstate work accounted for roughly 20% of 2026 year-to-date revenue.
REPUTATION
The company maintains a 4.9-star Google rating across 649 reviews. In an industry where consumers screen heavily on reputation, and where damage claims and missed appointments are the most common complaints against competitors, a review base of this depth is slow and difficult to replicate. It functions as both a local search advantage and an organic lead source that reduces dependence on paid acquisition.
WHY THIS INDUSTRY
Moving is a physically delivered, essential service that cannot be automated or offshored. Demand is driven by household and commercial relocation — a permanent need in a metropolitan area with sustained inbound migration — and execution requires trained crews, licensed operating authority, and a maintained fleet. For buyers seeking an operating business with durable fundamentals and no exposure to technological displacement of its core service, the industry offers structural protection that many software and services businesses increasingly lack.
TRANSITION
The owners are committed to a thorough handoff, including on-site training, personal introductions to crew, vendors, and referral partners, and post-closing availability. Seller financing is available for a qualified buyer.

- Market Outlook / Competition
- Boxer Buddies serves the Austin metro, one of the fastest-growing relocation markets in the country, where sustained inbound migration drives consistent demand.
Operating since 2016, the company holds a 4.9-star Google rating across 649 reviews — a base that is slow to replicate in an industry where consumers screen heavily on reputation, and one that drives organic leads and reduces dependence on paid acquisition.
The market is fragmented between national van line franchises carrying high overhead and pricing, and small independents who typically lack interstate authority, adequate insurance, or a professional fleet. Boxer Buddies sits between the two: licensed interstate authority, a company-owned fleet rather than rentals, full valuation coverage, and professional systems, delivered with local ownership.
Interstate authority is a durable barrier — most local independents cannot legally perform cross-state moves. Interstate work was roughly 20% of 2026 year-to-date revenue. - Opportunities for Growth
- Revenue has grown from $712,749 in 2024 to $1,021,264 in 2025, with the first seven months of 2026 producing $884,814 — up 48% year over year and on pace for roughly $1.5 million. This was achieved organically within the existing service area.
Clear paths remain for a new owner:
Margin optimization. The sales team and marketing engine were built out over the past 18 months; that investment now sits in the run rate rather than ahead of it, so incremental volume flows through at improved margin.
Storage. Recurring storage generates roughly $13,000 annually and is lightly marketed. It carries higher margins than moving and smooths seasonality.
Commercial relocation. The current mix is largely residential. Commercial work carries higher ticket values, fills weekday capacity, and is less seasonal.
Capacity and lanes. Growth has been limited by crew count, not demand, and interstate authority is already in place to concentrate volume along repeatable lanes.
