Movers in Texas
Texas takes more inbound household goods than almost anywhere. Dallas–Fort Worth, Houston, Austin and San Antonio each run their own market, and the state is big enough that in-state moves often exceed 400 miles.
- Our own trucks and crews, not a broker network
- Local, interstate and cross-country from Texas
- Written estimates before anything is loaded
- Packing, storage and auto transport available
Moving to or from Texas
California to Texas is the single heaviest interstate lane in the country. Illinois, New York and Florida add substantial inbound.
Summer heat from June through September shortens the working day, and Austin and Houston both have downtown high-rises that require a reserved freight elevator and a certificate of insurance.
Whether the job stays inside Texas or crosses state lines, the same company handles it end to end. United Relocation is an FMCSA-authorized motor carrier — we are not passing your shipment to whichever crew happens to bid on it.

Moving in Texas: common questions
What does a move from Texas depend on?
Weight and distance first — Oklahoma City, OK is about 350 miles out, Kansas City, MO about 690, and that gap alone changes the job. In-state moves often exceed 400 miles, so Texas jobs price like interstate ones. Our published starting rates give you a floor — $250 an hour on a local move, from $1,800 on a long haul — and the number that binds is a written estimate against your actual inventory, which is free.
Which cities in Texas do you serve?
Houston is the largest market in the state at roughly 2196,000 people, and we also run crews in San Antonio, Dallas, Austin, Fort Worth, El Paso, Arlington. Smaller towns are covered too, though rural addresses sometimes need a shuttle from a smaller truck.
How long does a move out of Texas take?
Inside Texas, normally loaded and delivered the same day. Interstate, distance sets it: Oklahoma City, OK at 350 miles lands in one to two days, Kansas City, MO at 690 miles takes longer. June through September shortens the working day; spring and autumn are the efficient windows.
