The corridor

The San Antonio & Hill Country → Gonzales corridor

The 75-mile run from San Antonio to Gonzales is one of the easiest lanes we drive out of South Central Texas, and RiverHills Moving covers it start to finish on our own truck with our own crew — no interlining, no broker handoff, no swapping your belongings onto a stranger's trailer at some warehouse. Loads roll east out of San Antonio and pick up the US-90A corridor through Seguin, sliding past Kingsbury and Harwood on the old highway that parallels I-10 to the south, then drop down US-183 into Gonzales where the Guadalupe and San Marcos Rivers meet. You leave the limestone hills and live oaks of the San Antonio and Hill Country side behind and roll out onto flatter post-oak savannah and blackland farm country — cattle pasture, cornfields, and the occasional Eagle Ford pumpjack — before the courthouse dome finally comes up over the treeline.

Door to door it's roughly a 90-minute drive, which means most Gonzales moves load and deliver the same day: furniture out of your San Antonio home in the morning, wheels-down in Gonzales by lunch, and beds reassembled before dark. Because Gonzales sits squarely inside our regular Texas operating radius, this isn't an exotic long-haul we farm out — it's a lane the same San Antonio and Hill Country crew runs constantly, so scheduling is fast and the movers who blanket-wrap your dining table are the same ones who carry it up your new front steps. Households moving from Boerne, Kerrville, and Fredericksburg travel this exact route too — Hill Country crews simply stage down I-10 into San Antonio and pick up the same eastbound corridor — so "Kerrville to Gonzales" and "Boerne to Gonzales" are moves we handle the same easy way.

Destination guide

About Gonzales, TX

Gonzales wears its history on every wide, saint-named street. The town was platted in 1832 with seven public squares and boulevards named for the apostles, and the 1896 Romanesque courthouse still anchors the Courthouse Square Historic District downtown. Newcomers tend to gravitate to a handful of distinct pockets: the grand 1890s-to-1900s Victorians along St. Louis Street and St. Lawrence Street, the festival heart around Independence Square, the riverside stretch by Independence Park and the Brickyard on the Guadalupe, and — for buyers who want real elbow room — the 1.5-to-3.5-acre wooded tracts out in Whispering Oaks. Families after a newer, conventional single-family home usually land in the subdivisions along the North Sarah DeWitt Drive corridor, close to the rebuilt Memorial Hospital and Gonzales High School.

The local economy is a genuine three-legged stool, which is a big part of why people put down roots here instead of just passing through. Southern Gonzales County sits on the Eagle Ford Shale, so oilfield, pipeline, trucking, and service jobs stay steady; Gonzales Healthcare Systems anchors the medical side with a freshly rebuilt Memorial Hospital on Sarah DeWitt Drive; and the surrounding countryside runs on agriculture — cattle, hay, row crops, and the poultry and egg operations the county is known for. Gonzales ISD, city and county government, and the shops and restaurants along the US-183 business strip round out the job base, and plenty of residents keep a San Antonio or Austin paycheck and simply commute the corridor.

Where Gonzales really separates itself from San Antonio is space for the money. Inside Loop 1604 you pay metro prices for a small lot and a shared fence line; in Gonzales that same budget stretches into a restored historic home a block off the square, a brand-new build on a quarter-acre near the hospital, or a couple of wooded acres on septic where the kids can keep chickens and you can actually see the stars. Property taxes and everyday costs run lower than the San Antonio metro, the traffic is a farm road instead of a freeway, and the only real trade-off is distance — which, at about 75 minutes up the corridor, most transplants decide they can live with easily.

  • check_circleMore house and land for the money — the same budget that buys a small lot inside San Antonio's Loop 1604 stretches into a restored historic home near the square, a new build on a quarter-acre, or a few wooded acres out in Whispering Oaks.
  • check_circleSteady Eagle Ford Shale work — southern Gonzales County sits on the play, keeping oilfield, pipeline, trucking, and oilfield-service jobs close to home rather than a metro commute away.
  • check_circleA real healthcare hub — Gonzales Healthcare Systems and its newly rebuilt Memorial Hospital on Sarah DeWitt Drive make the town a genuine medical employer and mean you don't have to drive to San Antonio for care.
  • check_circleDeep Texas-history roots and small-town life — as the 'Birthplace of Texas Independence,' Gonzales offers a walkable historic square, the annual Come & Take It Celebration, and a tight-knit community that sprawling San Antonio subdivisions can't replicate.
  • check_circleRivers and the outdoors at the doorstep — the Guadalupe and San Marcos Rivers, Independence Park, and nearby Palmetto State Park put fishing, paddling, and hunting minutes from the front porch.
  • check_circleCommutable yet rural — at roughly 75 miles from San Antonio and about the same from Austin, families can hold a metro paycheck while raising kids in Gonzales ISD with smaller classes and lower everyday costs.

Weather & timing for your Gonzales move

Gonzales sits in humid subtropical Texas, so summer heat is the main thing to plan around: July and August bring highs in the mid-to-upper 90s with real humidity and heat-index days over 100, which is why we schedule summer loads for early morning, keep crews hydrated and paced, and hand-carry electronics rather than leave them baking in a hot trailer. Spring (March through May) is mild but storm-prone — heavy thunderstorms, late-season hail, and the risk of flash flooding along the low Guadalupe and San Marcos river bottoms near Independence Park — so we keep an eye on the radar and will happily reschedule around a flood watch. Winters are short and generally mild, with only the occasional hard freeze or ice event. The sweet spots for a comfortable, low-drama move are mid-to-late October into November (right around the Come & Take It season) and again in March into early April. One honest note: our trucks are clean, padded, and blanket-wrapped, not climate-controlled, so for heat- or humidity-sensitive items like pianos, antiques, and electronics we plan the timing and wrapping accordingly rather than promise a temperature-controlled ride.

Local know-how

Tips for a San Antonio → Gonzales move

Beat San Antonio's east-side congestion — have the crew load and roll before the I-10/US-90 morning crush; once you're past Seguin the US-90A/US-183 corridor is open, two-lane country driving the rest of the way into Gonzales.
Prep the historic-district homes in advance — the 1890s-to-1900s houses around Courthouse Square, St. Louis Street, and St. Lawrence Street have narrow original doorways and steep staircases, so flag pianos, armoires, and antiques ahead of time. We take doors off the hinges and blanket the original woodwork, and the town's unusually wide streets make parking the truck the easy part (just mind the low pecan and oak canopy).
Scout rural drives before moving day — for Whispering Oaks tracts and county acreage on long gravel or caliche drives, send us the gate code and the drive length ahead of time. After heavy rain a soft drive may call for a shuttle with a smaller truck or trailer, which we plan for rather than get stuck on.
Pick your season when you can — aim for October–November or March–early April for the mildest weather; if you must move in July or August, book a morning slot, clear a shaded path, and keep a cooler of water on site for the crew.

RiverHills Moving Company helped me move my mom from Harper Texas to Dallas (Frisco) Texas. They were absolutely fantastic. Could not have been nicer guys that helped pack her up and move her in. Very respectful and I have NEVER had movers that have handled our stuff so well and were so polite. I grew up military and have moved my entire childhood. They took great care of my mom.

Frequently asked: San Antonio to Gonzales

How long does a San Antonio to Gonzales move take? expand_more

It's about 75 miles and roughly a 90-minute drive up the US-90A/US-183 corridor, so most household moves load in San Antonio and deliver in Gonzales the same day. RiverHills runs the entire route on its own truck and crew — no broker handoff or interlining — so your belongings never change hands between pickup and delivery.

Do you also move from Boerne, Kerrville, and Fredericksburg to Gonzales? expand_more

Yes. Gonzales is inside our core Texas footprint, and Hill Country moves share this exact lane — our Boerne and Kerrville crews stage down I-10 into San Antonio and pick up the same eastbound corridor into Gonzales. 'Kerrville to Gonzales' and 'Boerne to Gonzales' are moves we run regularly, with the same door-to-door crew that serves San Antonio.

Can you handle Gonzales's historic downtown homes and the rural acreage subdivisions? expand_more

Absolutely — they're two very different jobs and we plan for both. For the Victorians around Courthouse Square, St. Louis Street, and St. Lawrence Street, we protect narrow original doorways, steep staircases, and delicate woodwork, and take full advantage of the wide historic streets for truck access. For places like Whispering Oaks and county tracts on septic with long gravel drives, we scout the access first and shuttle with a smaller truck whenever a drive is too soft or tight for the big rig.

Is a move to Gonzales an interstate move, and does that change anything? expand_more

No — both San Antonio and Gonzales are in Texas, so this is an intrastate move handled by our fully licensed, insured Texas household-goods crew. That keeps scheduling fast and the process simple: one company, one truck, one crew from your San Antonio or Hill Country front door to your new place in Gonzales.
