10 Stars.







We ultimately decided to stop work on the unpacking since they weren't placing items back in a similar way that they were originally organized (before packing). Good thing they're by the hour so we just ended the job early.
Everyone is friendly, even folks spoken to over the phone. Would use their moving services again.


We did actually use Local Movings again, this time with Adrian, David, and Brian. We were very pleased with their service, one again!





Thankyou team!!

Every move in Texas is different and can be influenced by various factors such as location and nature. Moving companies often surprise their clients with hidden fees and additional costs, making it difficult to budget for the move. However, with Local Movings, you can avoid these surprises and plan your move accordingly.
Our fixed price moves guarantee that you know exactly what you’re paying for from the beginning. We also offer different pricing options that cater to different budgets, so you can choose the one that best fits your needs.
Our team consists of licensed and insured professionals who are fully background-checked, ensuring that your move is safe and comfortable. Our flat rate pricing is based on your inventory and distance, so you can trust that you are getting a fair price for your move.
Don’t settle for just any movers. Choose Local Movings for a stress-free and affordable moving experience. Visit our website at localmovings.com to learn more!

Texas has no shortage of moving companies. What it lacks is transparency.
At Local Movings, we built our pricing model around three principles:
- Honesty over hype
- Professional crews over rushed labor
- Real-time control over padded pricing
This approach allows us to deliver consistent service across residential and commercial moves — without hidden fees, surprise charges, or pressure tactics.
It also allows us to operate sustainably, pay professional movers fairly, and continue raising the standard for moving services in Texas.
In order to keep our prices Fixed, Local Movings does not offer wardrobe boxes or other packing supplies.
Please note that our fixed-price moving services do not cover packing supplies for your personal belongings. However, as a courtesy, we offer protective measures for your furniture, such as shrink wrap and quilted blankets, to ensure their safety during local moves. This added care demonstrates our dedication to safeguarding your items throughout the relocation.
LocalMovings is a licensed moving company that follows Texas Department of Transportation regulations.
We have two spots available every day, at 8am and 3pm. Let us know which one works best for you. The clock starts ticking from the moment the moving crew arrives at your residential or commercial place until they finish unloading at your new home.
It’s a fair question, and an important one. In an industry where pricing confusion is common, we believe the way a moving company prices a job says everything about how they operate.
Here’s the honest truth:
We do, but we prefer hourly pricing because it is safer, more transparent, and ultimately more fair for our customers — and it allows us to deliver the level of service we stand behind across Texas.
This isn’t about being rigid. It’s about protecting your belongings, your home, and your budget.
Every Move Is Different by Nature
A move is not a standardized service. It’s a live operation with real variables that affect time and effort.
Flat-rate moves sound simple on the surface. One price. No surprises. Done.
But here’s what most people don’t see:
Most moving companies that offer flat-rate pricing build in large “just in case” buffers. Those buffers exist because no two moves are ever the same.
That means customers often end up paying for:
- Extra labor that may never be needed
- Extra time that never happens
- Services added “just in case” something goes wrong
In other words, you’re paying for uncertainty.
At Local Movings, we believe transparency is more fair than guessing — and charging you for that guess.
Every Move Is Different by Nature
Usually, we cannot because it requires a lot of detailed information, which most customers don't have readily available. As a result, the process typically involves emailing, especially when dealing with a detailed inventory.
A move is not a standardized service. It’s a live operation with real variables that affect time and effort, such as:
- How organized the home or business is before the move
- Packing or unpacking needs
- Disassembly and reassembly of furniture
- Distance between Point A and Point B
- Distance from doors to the truck
- Stairs, elevators, or restricted access
- Protection required for walls, floors, and tight spaces
- Wrapping and unwrapping furniture and large items
- Complex or oversized furniture
- Specialty items like TVs, artwork, safes, pianos, or appliances
- Elevator usage, which adds time due to repeated load–travel–wait cycles
- Traffic and weather conditions, especially on longer-distance moves
Because these factors change from move to move, a flat rate can never truly reflect reality without padding the price.
The Hidden Risk of Rushing Movers
Here’s something most moving companies won’t say out loud:
Rushing professional movers increases the risk of damage.
When crews are pressured to beat the clock, they cut corners — sometimes without realizing it. That’s when walls get scuffed, floors get scratched, and furniture gets damaged.
At Local Movings, our promise is simple:
- Our movers are professionals
- They know what to do
- They work methodically, not reactively
When movers are inexperienced or learning on the job, hours can spiral out of control. When movers are experienced and allowed to work correctly, moves tend to be smoother, safer, and often faster overall.
