Boise movers for homes, condos and offices
From downtown high-rises to North End bungalows, Better Route moves Boise every week. Veteran-owned, based nearby in Caldwell, with local and long-distance moves, packing and storage.
Every part of Boise moves differently
Downtown means elevators, loading docks and buildings with strict move-in windows. The North End and East End mean hundred-year-old staircases and tree-lined streets where a big truck needs a plan. The Bench, West Boise and Southeast Boise are mostly family homes, and the newer neighborhoods out toward Harris Ranch and Barber Valley bring new construction and tight closing dates. We plan for whichever one is yours.
Our office is nearby in Caldwell. Our crews show up in uniform, on time and ready to work, and the person who answers the phone works for the company doing your move.

What our customers say
Better Route Movers and Storage provided an exceptional moving experience for us. We were relocating from three storage units plus our house, a complex job that they handled flawlessly. They honored their original quote with no hidden fees, which was refreshing. …
Great handling of property. Super nice. Guys were considerate of where to put things and took direction well.
Eric and his team were excellent to work with and very reasonably priced. We would recommend them to anyone moving to Idaho especially from another state. They were able to accommodate our changing schedule, loaded and delivered our things quickly without any damage. Thanks!!!
Eric and his team did a great job moving us into our commercial space. They were conscientious, efficient and worked quickly, getting the job done sooner than expected. I would highly recommend! Thank you better route moving!
Best moving experience so far…! Was referred to this company by my realtor and he came with a good reputation and transparency all the way. Eric (Owner) called and we did a Factime Walkthrough…very detail oriented and answered all my questions up front …
Excellent company. Eric went out of his way to make sure my move was smooth and as stress-free as possible. Everything was carefully handled and wrapped, all arrived in perfect condition and on time.
Eric was able to get me moved 2 days after I called him. He sent me 4 young men that worked so hard . Was so respectful, to me and my old things that I couldn't part with. I was impressed beyond my expectations. Can't thank you enough Eric for the delightful young men you sent to get me moved. Price was excellent . Thank you so much. God bless you and your boys and thank you for your service in military.

Boise moving questions
How much do movers cost in Boise?
It depends on home size, access (stairs, elevators, parking), how much packing you need, and the crew required. After a short walkthrough we send a free written quote with the crew, the trucks, the hourly rate and the travel fee listed up front.
Do you move into and out of downtown Boise buildings?
Yes. Tell us about the building when you request a quote. We work out elevator reservations, loading-dock times and parking with you before moving day, so the crew isn't waiting on the building.
Do you do office moves in Boise?
Yes. Offices, suites and small commercial spaces, planned around your business hours so your team loses as little working time as possible.
Can you handle older North End homes?
Yes. Narrow staircases, small doorways and tree-lined streets are why the walkthrough matters. We plan the route through the house, and where the truck parks, before anything gets lifted.
Can you move students near Boise State?
Yes. Apartment and student moves near campus are regular jobs. Move-in and move-out weeks around the school year fill up first, so call early.
Are you a veteran-owned moving company?
Yes. Better Route was founded in 2025 by Eric Lopez, a Marine Corps veteran, and he still owns and runs it. If you're moving on military orders, call us to talk through your report date and what your orders cover.
