Dallas Movers: Award-winning Dallas Moving Services

The farther the distance and the greater the load volume, the more expensive a move will be. Local moves in the Dallas area will be cheaper, and for longer distances (e.g. across states), there are many more pricing variables to consider. Overall, it’s best to hire a full-service moving company like NDMS that gives you customized fixed pricing for your particular move upfront so you can budget for your move properly.

Most people move during the summer because the weather is favorable, school is out, and people can take time off work. However, that entails more competition for moving companies and dates, and your move will likely be more expensive.

Fall or spring is the best time to move in Dallas because you get your pick of movers and schedules. Plus, the weather is still pleasant. If you’re hoping to save more money, winter is the most cost-effective month to move because it’s off-season and a Dallas moving company will be cheaper, but be prepared to weather the cold.

Moving on a weekend is a convenient option, but it’s typically more costly than a weekday move. In terms of the time of day, mornings are ideal because they afford you more flexibility for time.

It’s recommended to book your Dallas movers at least two to three months away from your moving date.

NDMS accepts credit cards, checks, and cash as forms of payment. Note that as a moving company that applies guaranteed pricing, we collect full payment before delivery of your personal belongings.

At its simplest, local movers help people transport their belongings from one place to another. But full-service Dallas movers like NDMS go the extra mile. We can offer services related to every aspect of a move, including:

• Packing and unpacking

• Disassembly and assembly

• Loading and unloading

• Transport

• Storage

Generally, moving insurance covers all the belongings transported (and sometimes stored) during a move. The specifics of what that includes, such as the different liability options, may vary depending on the policy, so it’s best to consult your Dallas movers for the available options.

The time it takes to move in Dallas will depend on the size of the move:

• One bedroom: Two to three hours

• Two bedrooms: Three to five hours

• Three bedrooms: Five to seven hours

• Four bedrooms: Six to eight hours

• Five bedrooms: Seven to nine hours

In Dallas, a local move averages between three to four hours. Long-distance moves will naturally take longer. If you’re moving out of the city, you can expect the duration to go up to overnight or even a couple of days.

The size of the truck you’ll need when moving will depend on the amount of personal belongings you’re transporting. Here’s a general size guide:

• One-bedroom home: Fifteen- to sixteen-foot truck

• Two-bedroom home: Seventeen-foot truck:

• Three-bedroom home: Twenty- to twenty-two-foot truck

Three- to five-bedroom home or a home with up to seven rooms: Twenty-six-foot truck

When moving, you’ll need two categories of supplies: packing supplies and moving supplies. Packing supplies include boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, markers, labels, packing tape, scissors, and box cutters or utility knives. For moving supplies, you’ll need moving blankets, shrink wrap, and ropes. Full-service Dallas movers like NDMS will be able to provide these supplies to you!
