Most movers quote one price and hand you a higher bill when the move is done. We lock your rate before we touch a single item, with no stair fees, fuel surcharges, or long-carry fees. You rent the truck, and our Dallas movers handle every box, appliance, and piece of furniture.

Every move carries $1,000 in damage protection, and every mover is licensed, trained, and background-checked. If a mover arrives 30 minutes after the scheduled start, $50 comes off your bill. You get a real moving crew, and university students get paid.

HOW IT WORKS

Trusted movers in Dallas

Undergrads eliminates phone tag, unexpected fees, and hidden add-ons. We will handle the logistics.

01

Get your price.

Tell us about your move size, date, and whether you still need a truck. We guarantee an hourly rate with no stair fees, fuel surcharges, or hidden costs. Most Dallas moves we do cost between $200 and $350 altogether.

02

We show up ready.

We handle each box, piece of furniture, and flight of stairs. All you need to do is drive the truck.

03

You've moved in!

With Undergrads, you simply pay for the hours worked, with no additional fees at the end. And if a mover arrives 30 minutes after the scheduled time, we will deduct $50 from your payment.

Other moving companies in Dallas typically charge $1,200–$2,500 for a 2BR move. The Power Move gives you the same move for $200–$350. You drive the truck, our movers do all the loading and unloading.

HOW PRICING WORKS

How Dallas move quoting works and why fast workers cost less!

Your hourly rate is set before we arrive. Then the only thing left is the clock. Most movers pay their staff the same if the job takes 3 hours or 5, so there's no incentive to move fast. Our crews are university student athletes, booked back to back, so the work is fast. Use our Dallas Moving Calculator, built from 40,000+ completed moves across our markets. It has a built-in quote verifier so you can see if your quote from a different moving company is in line with what you should expect. Looking for movers today? Check out our Dallas last-minute and same-day movers.

The difference between the low and high end of moving quotes usually boils down to one thing: how fast your crew moves.

How we keep prices low:

  • The hourly charge is fixed before we arrive, and there are no surprise bills after the move
  • The faster they go, the lower your total is. Our movers are young and fit, so they work fast
  • Show-Up Guarantee: $50 off if your mover is 30 minutes late
  • No hidden fees. No gasoline surcharge. No fees if your move involves stairs.

The efficiency insight that most people miss

Most people think it costs less to use fewer movers, yet it's normally the reverse. A 3-person crew that wraps in 3 hours costs less than 2 movers that take 5. This is because your movers are always at top performance. With fewer people, movers become fatigued and the pace drops off. When athletes do their best work in the 3 to 4 hour timeframe, we make moves and everybody wins.

THE POWER MOVE

Our Dallas movers do the heavy lifting

You just rent the truck

U-Haul has 23,000+ locations across the US, and most customers in Dallas are within 5 miles of one. Any truck up to 26 foot runs on a standard driver's license, with no CDL or commercial license required.

What driving one actually feels like

  • You sit higher than any SUV. You can see the full road ahead and every lane.
  • No minimum speed. Go 45 mph the whole way. Take every exit slowly. No one cares.
  • You'll need one new skill: turn wide at intersections. Otherwise, it's pretty simple.
  • Pick up on your phone via U-Haul's Truck Share 24/7, with no counter, no paperwork, no wait.

“I was genuinely scared, until I started driving it. Just slow down, take the foot off the gas before going downhill, brake slowly, don't hug the curb while turning.” From a first-time mover.

MOVE-DAY PREP

Before your crew arrives

Your crew is billed by the hour, so the ten minutes you spend prepping the night before are the cheapest ten minutes of your move. Here's what makes the biggest difference.

Have the truck there ready for our crew. Pick it up before your start time and back it as close to the door as you can. In an Uptown, Downtown, or Knox-Henderson high-rise, the freight elevator comes in two-hour windows booked through the building, so reserve yours now and give us the building name five business days out for the Certificate of Insurance. In Highland Park and University Park, truck size and hours are restricted, so plan a weekday morning. In Bishop Arts, Deep Ellum, and Lower Greenville, the grid is tight and a 20-foot truck is the safe call. If it's curbside parking, hold the spot with your own car ahead of time.

Seal every box and label it with the room it's going to. Anything open-topped gets packed last and moved slowest. Keep boxes near the door and leave a clear path down every hallway and stairwell.

Take apart whatever furniture you can; it speeds things up. Bed frames, table legs, and mirrors off dressers get packed faster if they're disassembled. We'll handle disassembly if you'd like, too.

Set aside what rides with you. Medications, documents, laptops, jewelry, and anything you'd hate to dig out of a box at 9 p.m. are best with you, not with the truck.

The rest of it, leave to us.

LOCAL KNOWLEDGE

What to know about moving in Dallas

Dallas moves break into three logistical buckets. Uptown, Downtown, and Knox-Henderson high-rises require COI filings naming the building as additionally insured, request from us 5+ business days out, and most reserve freight elevators in 2-hour windows. Bishop Arts, Deep Ellum, and Lower Greenville have walkable older grids with narrow streets, a 20-26 ft truck is the practical max for most blocks. Highland Park and University Park are restrictive on truck size and operating hours, plan moves for weekday mornings. The Galleria/North Dallas, Lake Highlands, and Lakewood suburbs are car-friendly with easy access. North Tollway and 75/Central traffic doubles between 7-9 AM and 4-7 PM, schedule moves outside those windows. SMU move-in (third weekend of August) and graduation (mid-May) jam the Hillcrest/Mockingbird corridor; book 3-4 weeks ahead for those weekends.

Peak season

May, June, July, August, September

Weekend slots fill 2–3 weeks out during peak months. Book early.

Crew recruited from universities across the Dallas area, university-affiliated, background-checked, accountable.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked about Dallas moves

How much does it cost to move in Dallas?

Every move is priced by the hour. The rate is locked before we start, with no stair fees, fuel surcharges, or hidden add-ons. Two movers run $112 per hour, and most moves run $200–$350 total for a 2-person crew over 2 to 3 hours. Larger homes that need a third mover or more hours run higher, with the rate locked before we start. Truck rental is separate if you need one. If we finish early, you pay less.

Do I need to provide a truck?

We're labor-only movers. You rent the truck from U-Haul, Penske, or Budget. We handle all the loading, unloading, and heavy lifting. We'll tell you the exact size to get and can book it for you if you want.

Do you offer packing services?

We don't offer packing services, but we can help with furniture assembly and disassembly in some cases. If you need packing help, our moving coordinators can point you to a packing service.

Do you handle full-service moves?

Other moving companies charge you extra for handling the truck. We save you money by helping you book the truck and having you drive it yourself. That's how we keep our rates 30–40% lower than the competition.

Can you handle commercial moves?

We can. Whether it's a large-scale residential move, a move on behalf of a third-party client, or an office move, we'll put together a crew that handles the job efficiently, responsibly, and affordably.

How does billing work?

We estimate how long your move will take based on the number of boxes, heavy items, and furniture, and the number of bedrooms you're moving. There's a two-mover, two-hour minimum. Our movers work fast, and once they're done you only pay for the time it took.

Is there anything your movers won't move?

Especially heavy or bulky safes and pianos are best left to movers who specialize in those items. Keyboards, obviously, aren't an issue. Gun safes and firearms are best left to you. Contractually, our movers won't touch them.

What's the Show-Up Guarantee?

We're confident enough in our show rate to put $50 behind every booking. Our Dallas movers have 781+ reviews backing that up. If a mover arrives 30 minutes after the scheduled start, let us know and we'll knock $50 off your final bill.

Are your movers background-checked?

Yes. Every Undergrads mover is a background-checked university student. They work under their real names, connected to their university email.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Undergrads is a fully licensed and insured moving company in every market we serve, including Dallas. Every move includes $1,000 in damage protection. If you're moving into a high-rise or building that requires a Certificate of Insurance (COI), contact us. We handle COI requests before move day.

What neighborhoods in Dallas do you serve?

We serve all areas of Dallas including Downtown, Uptown, Bishop Arts, Deep Ellum, and more. If you're anywhere in the Dallas metro area, we can likely help. Call (469) 253-7463 if you're unsure.

How quickly can you schedule a move?

Same-week scheduling is available in Dallas most of the year. Weekend dates in peak season (May–September) fill fast; book early if you have a fixed date. We're available 7 days a week.

Can I cancel or reschedule my move?

Yes. Cancellation is free 48 hours before your move, and rescheduling costs nothing with the same notice. The $5 reservation simply holds your date; you pay for the move after it happens.

MOVING TO OR FROM DALLAS?

Crews at both ends, anywhere in Texas

Undergrads runs local crews in Austin, Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio. If your move connects two of our cities, one crew loads your truck here and a second crew is waiting to unload at the other end. You handle the drive, and you only pay for labor at each stop. See how long-distance moves work, or meet your destination crew:
