Moving Companies in Lone Star, TX
If you're moving to or from Lone Star, plan on a two-to-three-person crew plus a truck running you $100 to $200 an hour — that's how nearly every local Texas mover prices the job. Lone Star doesn't have its own moving companies, so crews usually drive in from Mount Pleasant, Longview, or Tyler, and that trip gets built into your bill as a travel fee or fuel surcharge. Ask about it upfront so it isn't a surprise.
Don't settle for a vague phone quote — push for a binding, not-to-exceed estimate, which caps what you'll pay unless you add items you didn't mention. Be upfront about anything heavy or awkward, like a piano, a big safe, or a pool table — leaving those out can mean the crew turns the job down or tacks on fees once they see it. If you want to keep costs as low as possible, renting a truck or container yourself and hiring hourly labor just for the loading is a solid middle ground.
Before you sign anything, make sure whoever you pick carries a current Texas Department of Motor Vehicles registration number — that's what confirms they're actually licensed to move you. Once that's sorted, the movers listed here are a good place to start comparing.

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 Lamar County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 53% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
