Moving Into Historic Homes and New Neighborhoods in Waxahachie
As the Ellis County seat, Waxahachie is known for its Victorian homes, the reason it is called the Gingerbread City, and it sits on I-35E and US-287. If your home is one of the older ones, walk through it with us before moving day and plan where the truck can park, and if you are moving into a newer neighborhood, check any HOA rules on moving trucks and hours before you book. Our Waxahachie office on Ovilla Road keeps our crews close by. Thinking it over? See our guide on whether Waxahachie is a good place to live. New to town? The City of Waxahachie website is the place to set up city services, and the Waxahachie Chamber of Commerce is a good way to find local businesses and events.
Waxahachie Historic Districts, Parks and New-Resident Basics
Waxahachie has five districts on the National Register of Historic Places: the West End, the courthouse square, North Rogers Street, Oldham Avenue and the Wyatt Street Shotgun Houses, and about 300 of its structures are listed, including the Sims Library and the Chautauqua Auditorium. The red sandstone and granite Ellis County Courthouse, designed by James Riely Gordon, anchors the square. The Gingerbread Trail Tour of Homes has opened local houses to visitors since 1968, and the city also hosts the Crape Myrtle Festival and the Crossroads of Texas Country Festival.
Getzendaner Park, established in 1889, covers 33 acres along Waxahachie Creek, and the Waxahachie Creek Hike and Bike Trail runs 4 miles from there to Lions Park. Southwestern Assemblies of God University and a branch of Navarro College are in town, and Waxahachie ISD serves the city. The city Utility Billing Department signs new residents up for water, wastewater, trash and recycling (see Start or Disconnect Services); in some areas Rockett Special Utility District bills sewer and garbage instead, so confirm your water provider before moving day.
A Recent Waxahachie Move
One recent two-day job started at a Waxahachie home. On day one, two of our movers took part of the household to a storage unit in Mansfield; the client ended up sending more than first planned, so the day ran 10.25 hours instead of the estimated 5 to 7. On day two, a three-person crew moved the rest from the ground-floor home into a second-floor apartment in Waxahachie in 8 hours, under the 9 to 11 hours we had estimated. The main job was keeping the storage items and the apartment items apart.
