How to Find the Best Long-Distance Movers in Fort Worth
Narrowing down your choice of moving companies can be easier when you know what to look for. Here are our tips for finding the best movers:
Experience
You can gauge how reliable and stable a moving company is by how long it has been in the moving business. Well-established companies are more likely to have teams, equipment, and processes you can trust. Rogue moving companies come and go—avoid any company that doesn’t have a physical address or website, which can be signs that a company may take advantage of you.
Reputation
It’s easier than ever to find online reviews. Be sure to check reviews on Google Business Profiles and on consumer-protection websites. Look for responsiveness to negative reviews, which can indicate that the moving company cares about its reputation and customers’ experiences.
Credentials
Any long-distance moving company you’re considering must be properly licensed and insured. Look for a number that’s required by the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) for all interstate movers in the country. For moves within Texas, the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles also requires a number.
There are also important certifications in the moving industry, such as certification by the American Moving & Storage Association (AMSA).
Trained and Vetted Moving Teams
One of the most important questions to ask any long-distance or cross-country mover in Fort Worth is how you can know you can trust its employees. You want to make sure your household belongings and your property will be taken care of well by movers who have received proper training and have passed drug tests, background checks, and other checks.
Payment Requirements
A useful indicator of a long-distance moving company’s business practices is its requirements for payment. Some fly-by-night movers will require a large deposit before they provide any of their moving services. This is not a standard practice in the moving industry.

Fort Worth Long-Distance Moving FAQ

- How far you are moving: A long-distance move within Texas, for example, generally costs less than a cross-country move.
- How much your goods weigh: Our expert in-home estimator will factor the total estimated weight of your belongings into your customized quote.
- The extent of the long-distance packing services you want: our partial packing service costs less than our full packing service.
Our customers are welcome to take advantage of the convenience of our warehouses in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. We also offer affordable storage outside of the state via our network of premier partners.
A long-distance move—whether it's within the state of Texas or to another state—is 50 miles or more within the United States. Hawaii and Alaska are considered international moves just because of the way goods typically need to be transported to those locations.
