Three Districts. Two Eras of Housing. One City.
Minnetonka stretches from midcentury ranch neighborhoods near Ridgedale in the east to lakefront estates along Greys Bay in the west. Three school districts divide the city at the neighborhood level. Hwy 12 is being reconstructed in 2026. And a meaningful share of moves here involve older homes being replaced by new construction on the same lot. Every address tells a different story.
Minnetonka is served by three distinct public school districts: Minnetonka ISD 276, Wayzata ISD 284, and Hopkins ISD 270. Each covers different neighborhoods within city limits and each has its own academic profile and boundary. Minnetonka High School, home of the Skippers, is ranked 3rd among all Minnesota public high schools by Niche and offers International Baccalaureate and Chinese Immersion programs. Many families chose their specific Minnetonka address around which district zone it falls in.
MnDOT is actively reconstructing a section of Highway 12 through Wayzata and Minnetonka in 2026. I-394, which terminates at I-494 in Minnetonka, had bridge and ramp work running through fall 2026 in the Minneapolis and Golden Valley sections. We check both corridors before every Minnetonka move so the crew routes around active construction rather than into it.
A significant portion of Minnetonka's housing stock is midcentury construction from the 1950s through 1970s. Many of these homes are either being renovated or torn down entirely with new builds replacing them on the same lot. Older homes often have narrower doorways, tighter stairwells, and finishes that need extra protection. We confirm your home's era and condition at booking so the crew arrives prepared.
Our Process
A 1960s ranch in Sherwood Forest and a lakefront estate near Greys Bay require completely different plans. Here is how we build yours from the first call.
We ask for your address, home type, and approximate build year at booking. Eastern Minnetonka ranches, western lakefront estates, and newer construction replacements all have different carry plans. Your district zone also helps us understand the neighborhood character before the crew is assigned.
We check active MnDOT construction on Hwy 12 and I-394 before the crew departs. Both corridors have ongoing 2026 work and lane configurations change regularly. The crew takes the route that reflects conditions that morning, not a default schedule.
Midcentury Minnetonka homes get a dedicated protection plan. Narrower door frames, original hardwood floors, and tight stairwells all get flagged before move day so the crew arrives with the right materials and carries items at the right angle the first time.
Homes near Greys Bay, Libbs Lake, and Minnehaha Creek with dock equipment, outdoor specialty pieces, or high-value furniture get a dedicated inventory flag at booking so the crew size and materials are matched before the move date is set.
We walk every room before we leave. Your previous address is left in the condition it needs to be, and your new Minnetonka home is set up and ready when we call it done.

1950s through 1970s homes in eastern Minnetonka often have narrower door frames, original hardwood floors, and tighter stairwells than newer construction. We ask about your home’s era at booking and brief the crew on the layout and protection needs before they leave the yard.
Mid-week moves avoid the weekend premium and lighter Hwy 12 and I-394 corridor traffic reduces crew transit time. Summer dates near the Minnetonka Schools calendar fill quickly, so mid-week outside of June and July offers the best combination of price and availability.
Minnetonka is one of the most competitive booking markets on the west side of the Twin Cities. Families moving for Minnetonka High School tend to target late July and early August, which compresses that window fast. Lakefront estate dates also move quickly in summer. Earlier is better.
