How much do movers cost in Dallas, TX?+
Local Dallas moves typically run $450 to $2,800 for residential jobs and $4,500 to $75,000 for commercial relocations. Long-distance moves out of Dallas start around $2,200 for a 1-bedroom and scale by weight and mileage. Boxed Movers issues fixed-price quotes so your quote is your invoice.
Are you licensed and insured?+
Yes. Boxed Movers operates under USDOT #3948210 and TXDMV #006782, is fully bonded, and carries full-value cargo protection on every move as standard, not as an upsell.
Do you offer free moving estimates?+
Every quote is free. We give a firm, fixed-price number within 2 business hours for residential moves and within 48 hours for commercial relocations after a walkthrough.
How far in advance should I book my move?+
For local Dallas moves, 2 to 3 weeks is comfortable. Peak season (May through August) books faster, so aim for 4 to 6 weeks. Commercial and long-distance moves ideally need 6 to 8 weeks of lead time.
Do you move long-distance or interstate?+
Yes. Boxed Movers is federally licensed for interstate moves and services all 48 contiguous states from our Dallas HQ. Every long-haul truck is GPS-tracked with guaranteed delivery windows.
Do you provide packing services?+
Yes. Options range from packing supplies only, to partial packing (kitchen and fragile only), to full-service packing where our crew boxes every item in your home using professional materials.
Do you offer storage?+
Yes. We operate climate-controlled, monitored storage facilities in the DFW metroplex for short-term (renovation timing) and long-term needs, including vaulted storage for high-value items.
What areas do you serve in DFW?+
Boxed Movers serves the entire DFW metroplex including Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, Frisco, Allen, McKinney, Irving, Arlington, Grapevine, Southlake, Highland Park, University Park, Richardson, and Garland, plus the rest of Texas and all 48 states.
Do you handle pianos, safes, or fine art?+
Yes. Our white-glove specialty crews handle upright and grand pianos, safes, chandeliers, sculpture, antique furniture, and fine art with custom crating, air-ride transport, and climate control.
What happens if something is damaged?+
Every move includes full-value protection. If an item is damaged, we repair, replace, or reimburse the current cash value with no deductible games. Our claims rate stays under 0.3% because we do the boring stuff right.
Do you use day labor?+
Never. Every Boxed mover is a W-2 employee: background-checked, drug-tested, and trained on our own trucks. No parking-lot day labor, no subcontractors on residential moves.
What forms of payment do you accept?+
All major credit cards, ACH, and business checks. A refundable deposit reserves your date; the balance is due on delivery.
