What counts as long distance?
Long-distance moves are typically defined as moves over 100 miles or crossing state lines. Both are handled differently from local moves in terms of pricing structure, timeline, and regulatory requirements. Houston's position as a major metro means a significant volume of moves to Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, and out-of-state destinations — we handle all of these.
Areas we move to
| Region | Coverage |
|---|---|
| Within Texas (intrastate long-distance) | Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, El Paso, and all Texas metros |
| Interstate routes | Available destinations are confirmed during the quote process |
