What Do Moves Cost in Houston?
Answers vary based upon the type of move you need and its particulars. But, whether you require a local, long-distance, international, or office move, Suddath provides transparent pricing. Not confusion. Our detailed cost breakdowns clearly delineate prices for labor, transportation, and packing material as well as figures for any additional valuation coverage desired. Our relocation quotes are customized to specific needs and, if you need financing, please let us know.
High Pricing Visibility With Local and Long-Distance Moves: No Hidden Fees
Although elements can be weighted differently, local moving quotes and ones for long-distance relocations are calculated in the same manner using the same five factors. The result? You pay for services you want and need—but nothing more.
Weight and Mileage
The first of these (weight) is a significant quote component and somewhat under your control. If you reduce household goods’ weight before reaching out for your move’s estimate, you can lower costs. So, identify what you’re not taking to your new home. Recycle or toss what has no discernable value, gift friends and family with possessions they’d want but you don’t need, donate to charities (if they pick up items, you’ll save time and gas money), and sell unneeded household goods to offset moving costs.
Mileage is a bigger factor with long-distance relocations because they require more fuel and labor and probably a bigger truck than local moves (defined as ones under fifty miles). Long-distance moves can be around Texas (intrastate), to another state (interstate), or across the country.
Move Date
Determine your degree of flexibility to get the most cost-effective move date possible. Weekend relocations typically come with more costs than Monday through Thursday ones, and you can save money by moving in the industry’s off-season of October through April.
Optional Services
The add-on services that you choose will also have an impact on your Houston move’s cost. These include our adaptable packing and unpacking services, specialty packing (including custom crating), desire for a white glove experience, and storage solution requirements.
Valuation Coverage
Valuation differs from insurance, and our team will explain how in the amount of detail you’d like. We’ll also answer all your questions. Our goal is to ensure that your belongings are protected in transit with the optimal amount.
Complex International Moves Have Straightforward Pricing
International moves, whether to or from Houston, are more intricate than in-country relocations. Suddath streamlines them and serves as your single point of contact throughout for a smooth, cost-efficient relocation. Our pricing breakdowns are clear, including for costs with our trusted partner collaborations. We never outsource move components to interim third parties, overseeing your relocation from start to finish.

Suddath provides efficient, cost-effective office moving services detailed in a comprehensive menu where you make selections of choice. From office move planning and furniture storage to installation and tech services (including IT disconnect and reconnect services), decommissioning, ongoing support, and more, we’ve truly got you covered.
FEATURED NEWS AND INFO
Houston Moving FAQs
Moving companies can set their own rates, choosing how to calculate them. With Suddath, our long-distance movers in Houston, TX, use these elements:
• Weight of household belongings
• The distance (mileage) of the move
• The move date
• Specialty services chosen
• Additional coverage for moving valuation
Although you wouldn’t have control over the mileage of your move, you may have flexibility over your move date. If you wanted to reduce your moving quote, you could reduce the weight of your possessions by tossing what doesn’t have value and selling or donating what you don’t want but others do. You can decide which packing and unpacking and storage services you need, which has an impact on the price charged by the Houston moving company. You might also have specialty moving needs such as moving pianos, cars, motorcycles, or boats. Or you may require custom crating or desire white glove moving services in Houston.
To get an estimate for your specific move, reach out for a free, no-obligation quote.
Although you might notice slight variations in this answer, in general, the moving industry considers a long-distance move to be one more than fifty miles in distance. This could be within the same state, to a neighboring state, or all across the country.
If moving in Houston, and you want to get a quote, declutter before they come to get the most cost-effective estimate. That’s because local and long-distance movers in Houston, TX, typically factor in the weight of belongings in a moving quote.
If the actual move day is approaching, put items that you are physically taking with you in a designated spot. These can range from medicines to important documents and from electronics to bowls, blankets, and food for pets and toys to keep children occupied. Also, put aside cleaning and personal hygiene supplies that you’ll want upon arrival in your new home.
Then, preparation specifics will vary based upon the packing services you’ve chosen. If you’ll be doing some of your own packing, carefully box up and label those boxes. Have items being professionally boxed up in the appropriate rooms for organized packing that will make unpacking easier. Ask friends or family members to be with your children and pets on moving day when your moving company in Houston, TX, is packing and loading. This allows you to focus on your move while being assured of their safety and well-being.

When choosing our packing services as part of your overall moving services in Houston, our experts will box up most items. Ones with restrictions typically fall in these three categories. First, there are hazardous materials. By law, these can’t be taken by your moving company in Houston, TX, and you shouldn’t pack them, either. Instead, follow local regulations for their disposal. Examples include candles, weed killer, aerosol cans, car batteries, antifreeze, fireworks, pool chemicals, and so forth. Poisonous materials comprise the second category, including bleach, windshield wiper fluids, rat poison, and so on. The third category may not be as obvious: perishables like frozen, fresh, and refrigerated foods and beverages; canned goods and unopened food containers may be transported in limited quantities. So, reduce your grocery shopping as moving day approaches, using up what you already have. Then, donate what you can’t use. As another perishable, plants can fall under agricultural rules that prevent transport by your Houston moving company.
Benefits of having professional packing services when moving in Houston include how it saves you time, allows you to focus on other aspects of the move, and causes your possessions to be expertly boxed up with high quality supplies. Some people find packing to be quite frustrating, so it removes that exasperation. You can then compare the benefits to what you’d pay for your packing services. Many people, after doing this comparison, find them to be worthwhile. If you like to pack or are trying to trim back costs, then you may answer this question of worth differently. To make an informed choice, you can get a quote that includes the level of packing services that you’d prefer.
