Start your new life off there right by choosing the experienced crew at Gigantic Moving & Storage. From the first phone call you make to our friendly office workers to your moving day, you will rest easy knowing that you are in good hands.
A city with authentic American roots, Alvin was originally founded by 19th century ranchers. The town expanded rapidly when it became a stop on the popular Santa Fe Railroad line. Always proud of their heritage, the town’s namesake comes from its first original resident, Alvin Morgan. The most famous and bragged about resident, however, is baseball hall of famer, Nolan Ryan. Forever true to Alvin’s railroad heritage, he was known during his winning career as “The Ryan Express”. You won’t be able to play ball if you hurt your back lifting your heaviest couch into a truck, so let the trained professionals at Gigantic take care of that for you.
Sports are not the only activities that the community in Alvin centers around. The interest in wildlife, nature, and quality family time can be seen at the Bayou Wildlife Zoo. With an interactive petting zoo complete with pony rides, a tram that leisurely takes you for a ride along and even through some exhibits, and dozens of different animals, like zebras, giraffes, and rhinos, this zoo has it all. If you and your family are looking for something that seems a little more local you can stay active at the Tom Blakeney Jr Hike & Bike Trail.
With such an active and fun community, Alvin really is the perfect small city. It’s no wonder that the word is getting out and Alvin is growing. Make sure you beat the rush and call Gigantic today to schedule your move with professionals you can trust. After watching our movers safely bring your items back home, you can head over to the Alvin Historic Depot Centre to begin learning all about your new town. The life you want is waiting for you here.
