When to move in Texas
Texas runs an inbound relocation wave that never fully stops, which makes our four metros the steadiest markets we operate and the easiest to book on short notice outside a few pinch points. The first pinch is heat. From late June through early September an afternoon load in Dallas or Houston is genuinely punishing, so we start Texas moves early in the day through the summer and we would rather put you in a 7am slot than a 2pm one. Those early slots go first. The second is the third week of August, when UT Austin, Texas State in San Marcos, and the San Antonio campuses move students in and every truck in the Austin metro is spoken for. The third is month-end, everywhere, for the usual lease reasons. Weekday moves in the first three weeks of a month are the easiest to schedule and often the cheapest to staff. During business hours we confirm a real timeslot on most quotes in under an hour.
