With Suddath, we make getting a moving estimate easier – giving you the option to do to a walkthrough virtually via a mobile device, or by scheduling an in-person walkthrough with one of our experienced representatives. Choose the option that is most convenient for you and your schedule. Our goal is to simplify the local moving process, all the way from the initial quote process through to the final delivery of your goods.

As you begin to plan your local move to Dallas, our seasoned representatives will carefully walk you through the process, to help you customize a moving program that works for your schedule and budget. Following your in-home survey and estimation process, detailed moving checklists are compiled by our experts and are readily available to help you begin preparing for your home move.
Every customer is assigned a professional move coordinator who will personally assist you at every step of the process. They act as advisors on how to keep your move on budget, on time and as stress-free as possible. If your needs change in any way throughout the moving process, you will have only one number to call to help make your transition smoother.
Packing and Unpacking Services
Our team is trained to help pack every item in your house, and we offer complete packing services for customers who want us to professionally pack their items.
We also have partial or DIY packing for customers who prefer a more hands-on approach. With partial packing, we pack based on your direction; we also offer quality materials and advice if you opt for DIY packing. Of course, on moving day, we wrap your furniture and protect your home space as we securely load your belongings in the truck for transit.
Declutter and Storage Assistance
Moving offers you the opportunity to streamline the contents of your home. We can assist with temporary storage and decluttering if you’re staging your home, or long-term storage if you need some time before bringing all of your items into your new home.
Successful moves are often based on timing and easy transitions, and if you realize the need for short- or long-term storage as you get settled in, our 148,000 square foot warehouse in the Dallas-Ft. Worth metro area can be a quick and easy one-stop-shop solution.

DALLAS LOCAL MOVING FAQ
Working with Suddath in Dallas-Fort Worth, your move coordinator will help you select the best day that works for your schedule to move your belongings. With same-day moves as an option, selecting your move date may depend on factors such as your work schedule, costs, and available helping hands. In many instances, early weekday moves (on Mondays, Tuesdays or Wednesdays) are often less expensive and may help you save money. As a safety precaution, we typically avoid loading on Sundays; this helps regulate the service clock for our van operators and crew members.
For more information, review 5 things to consider when choosing a move date.
Because of what may seem like never-ending details, it seems you can never start a moving process too early! Even if your move is local, ideally starting the process no later than eight weeks before your move date is a good rule of thumb. A detailed moving checklist will be helpful for outlining your move, determining timelines, etc. Researching and evaluating local moving companies is an important start to the process.
Choosing a qualified Dallas local moving company like Suddath can also help ease this process, especially if you face a compressed timeline. Our experienced and professional move coordinators will work with you every step of the way to develop an optimized moving plan.
Valuation coverage is an agreement between you and your moving company over claims and their liability for those claims. It is not the same as insurance (a moving company cannot legally sell insurance; insurance policies would need to be purchased from an independent company that offers those plans.) However, please note that most established and reputable moving companies will offer a form of valuation coverage, as there are federal laws according to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) obligating them to do so. This again is another box to check off when you are evaluating movers.
Valuation coverage offers an established compensation back to the customer if it is determined that goods were lost or damaged during the move, at the fault of the mover. For example, at Suddath, we employ a standard Released Value Protection (RVP), which is valuation coverage at $0.60 per pound of your shipment.
It is important to determine which coverage – valuation vs. insurance – is your best option for your move. Our blog post on valuation coverage offers more details about the different types of coverages available.
