Mike Stackable — Founder | Muscleman Moving

About Mike

Mike Stackable founded Muscleman Elite Moving & Storage with a straightforward idea: treat every customer's belongings like they're irreplaceable — because to the customer, they are.

Nearly 20 years later, that idea has grown into one of Austin's highest-rated moving companies, with 775+ verified five-star reviews and a damage claim rate of less than 0.03%. Mike personally oversees crew training, equipment standards, and the specialty item protocols that set Muscleman Elite apart from other moving companies.

Specialty Item Expertise

Mike developed Muscleman Elite's specialty moving division after seeing how many Austin families struggled to find movers willing to handle heavy and high-value items. Today, the company is known across Central Texas for safely moving:

Grand pianos — including Steinway, Yamaha, and Bosendorfer concert grands
Gun safes — from 500-pound residential safes to 5,000+ pound commercial vaults
Hot tubs and swim spas — including disconnection coordination, rigging, and re-leveling
Aquariums — reef-safe transport protocols for tanks up to 500 gallons
Pool tables — slate disassembly, felt protection, precision reassembly and leveling
Antiques and fine art — museum-level padding, custom crating, and climate-aware transport

Mike personally trains every crew leader on specialty item handling and conducts quality reviews on complex moves.

Mike's Approach to Moving

"Most people only move a few times in their life, and every one of those moves is a big deal. Our job is to make it feel easy. That means showing up on time, protecting your home, handling your stuff carefully, and not surprising you with hidden fees at the end."

"I started this company because I thought moving should be better. The bar was low — and honestly, in this industry, it still is. We hold ourselves to a higher standard because our customers deserve it."
