Before you call anyone, it's worth learning how to read the movers listed below, since the badges on each card tell you more than the star rating alone.

A license or insurance badge means the company has filed the paperwork Texas requires to move your things legally, skip listings without one, since you'd have no recourse if something goes wrong. Review count matters almost as much as the star average: a high rating built on hundreds of reviews is a steadier signal than the same score from a dozen.

Pricing in the Channelview and greater Houston area gives you a baseline to judge quotes against. Labor-only help, if you've already got a truck or POD, runs about $75 an hour per mover, with full jobs typically landing between $280 and $590. A full-service crew with their own truck starts around $120 to $150 an hour. By home size, expect $300 to $900 for a studio or one-bedroom, $700 to $1,900 for a two- or three-bedroom depending on stairs and volume, and $1,800 to $4,500 or more for a four-bedroom-plus home. Use those ranges to spot a quote that's out of line before you commit.

Fortunate to been able to work with this group, we were moving from Texas to Mississippi. 9 hour drive which is pretty exhaustion on its own. They were able to hold her items for additional time being that we were closing on our new home at a later date. All TVs still work and packaging deserves a M...

Who's moving to Channelview, TX

Federal tax-filer migration data for Harris County.

196,677 households moved in or out · #2 busiest moving market in the U.S.
What kind of mover will you need?
Moving in
94,726 households arrived
30% under 50 mi 20% 50–250 mi 41% over 250 mi 9% not attributed

53% arrived from elsewhere in Texas. Most arrivals are in-state moves, so a regional company will usually cover it — check interstate authority only if you're crossing a state line.

Moving out
101,951 households left
41% under 50 mi 21% 50–250 mi 29% over 250 mi 9% not attributed

50% of departures went farther than 50 miles. Beyond that range moves are priced by weight and distance, and a state line means the carrier needs interstate authority.

Households arriving from another state report $78,284 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Texas report $70,583. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Harris County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 9% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

How much truck space do you need?

I’m moving a that’s .

A moving truck filling up as you change the options
1,150
cubic feet — what a local crew loads
8,050 lb what a long-distance carrier quotes on
26 ft rental truck, if you drive it yourself

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
