Is it worth paying for movers?

Many people assume a DIY move is automatically cheaper than hiring a moving company, but is that the case? In many instances, self-movers only look at the initial costs, such as renting a truck or trailer, and don’t account for other costs along the way.

Since most DIYers won’t be renting a full-size moving truck, the gas bills from multiple trips can add up faster than they think. If moving out of state, expect to pay even more in gas and mileage, plus the expense of lodging and meals.

On top of the price, DIY moving means exactly that: You do everything yourself, from packing, lifting, and unloading to arranging storage and assembling furniture. In the heat of a Texas summer, that’s an exhausting day (or more) without accounting for time on the road or the risk of injury. If you’re moving internationally, you’ll have no support for shipping, customs, or navigating delivery in your new country.

Finally, DIY moving means any losses are not protected. Heirlooms, antiques, and temperature-sensitive items can easily become damaged without professional packing or climate control. If doing it yourself, you’ll have no recourse to recoup losses on these items.

Frequently Asked Questions about Texas Out-of-State Moving Companies

Are there any hidden fees I should be aware of when hiring movers in Texas?

Local moving companies typically charge by the hour, though the base rate doesn’t include hidden fees like stair carries, long-carry fees (if the truck can’t park directly in front of the door), and extra charges for bulky items. If a mover won’t provide a transparent, comprehensive quote upfront, you may find yourself on the hook for some of these fees once the move is finished.

Not at Allied Van Lines. We offer transparent, upfront pricing and detailed estimates to ensure you know what your final bill will be well before we begin loading the truck.

How much time should I expect for a long-distance move from Texas to another state?

It depends on the distance of your move and the time of year, but you can generally expect a long-distance move to take:

  • Up to 1,000 miles: 2 to 5 days
  • Up to 2,000 miles: 5 to 10 days
  • 2,000+ miles: 10 to 21 days

What’s included in a full-service moving package in Texas?

At Allied Van Lines, we customize your moving package to suit your needs. Our full-service moving packages can include: 

  • Packing and unpacking
  • Loading and unloading
  • Transportation (air or ground shipping)
  • Customs support for international movies
  • Local storage options
  • Auto shipments
  • Furniture disassembly and reassembly
  • Portable storage containers
  • And more

What is the cheapest way to move out of Texas?

The best way to save money on a move out of Texas is by planning early. Get quotes from trusted moving companies and ensure you understand pricing and fees that may apply. Then, consider downsizing your belongings and doing as much packing as possible yourself to save on moving costs.

What are the benefits of hiring a professional moving company versus a DIY move in Texas?

Hiring a professional moving company in Texas provides access to an experienced relocation coordinator to manage the schedule and coordinate logistics. Professional movers save you the hassle of heavy lifting and transportation. Plus, they offer moving valuation coverage, which you won’t have if you move yourself.

What moving valuation options does Allied offer to protect my belongings in Texas?

In accordance with federal law, Allied Van Lines offers basic moving valuation coverage for all local and long-distance moves.As an additional service for our clients, we also offer Extra Care Protection (ECP), a type of flexible valuation coverage you can add to your moving package. Simply choose how much you’d like to cover, and we’ll handle the rest for your peace of mind.
