Moving in Big Spring
Big Spring sits where I-20 meets US 87, about an hour east of Odessa, with 26,144 people in 2020. It is older than most Basin towns: ranching first, then the 1950s oil boom and Webb Air Force Base until 1977. Many houses date from those years, solid brick and frame homes with original floors worth protecting. We moved 38 households in Big Spring last year.

Moving Services We Offer in Big Spring
Local Moves in Big Spring
The older streets below Scenic Mountain, the base-era neighborhoods, the newer houses on the edge of town. Local moves here bill by the hour with a three hour minimum, same as Odessa.
Moves West to Midland and Odessa
Families move west for oilfield jobs and bigger schools. One of our crews loads in Big Spring and unloads at the new house the same day.
Moves East to Abilene and Dallas–Fort Worth
Big Spring sits right on I-20, so heading east is simple. Abilene is a morning, Dallas–Fort Worth is a day. We quote it in writing and drive it ourselves.
Protecting Older Homes
Original hardwood, plaster walls and narrow doorways in 1950s houses get runners, corner guards and door-jamb pads before anything moves. We’ve seen what one dragged dresser does to a 70-year-old oak floor.
What to Know About Moving in Big Spring
The town is named for one spring below Scenic Mountain, and folks here will correct you if you add an s. It became the Howard County seat in 1882 and grew with the railroad, the 1920s oil strikes and Webb Air Force Base, which trained pilots from World War II until it closed in 1977. A lot of those base-era houses are the ones we move.
Big Spring is about an hour from our Odessa yard. We price anything inside about two hours as local, so Big Spring moves stay hourly instead of jumping to long distance pricing. In our experience that saves a three-bedroom family several hundred dollars.
Planning a Big Spring Move
Because Big Spring is an hour from Odessa, a Big Spring move is a long day for the crew. We start early, bring enough people to load fast, and plan the route so the truck is not sitting in afternoon traffic on I-20 through Midland. A packed house with clear hallways can save you an hour or more on the bill.
The older houses near downtown and below Scenic Mountain often have narrow front doors, steep porch steps and floor furnaces in the hallway. We watch for those grates when we roll heavy furniture, because a dolly wheel in a floor furnace grate is how a dresser ends up on its face.
Moving to Big Spring
People move to Big Spring for the refinery, the hospitals, the state hospital and the lower cost of housing than Midland. We bring families in from Odessa, Midland and out of state, and can store a load while you close on a house.
Small Moves Around Town
A few pieces from an estate sale, a bedroom set to a new apartment, a piano to a church. Small Big Spring moves are billed by the hour with a three hour minimum, and we can often fit them onto a truck that is already coming east.
Hills, Driveways and Scenic Mountain
Big Spring is not as flat as Odessa. Houses on the slopes near Scenic Mountain and some of the older neighborhoods have steep driveways and tall front steps. A loaded dolly on a steep drive needs two people on it, one above and one below, and a ramp at the right angle. We look at the street view before moving day and bring the long ramp when we need it.
If the truck cannot back up your drive, we park on the street and set up a carry path with runners. Takes a little longer. Worth it.
Heading back west on I-20 toward home, we also serve Midland, where most of our Big Spring families end up.
Movers in Big Spring FAQs
Is Big Spring to Odessa a long distance move?
No. Big Spring is about 60 miles from Odessa, inside the local range of about 100 miles or two hours of driving. You pay an hourly rate that covers the drive. Past that range, like Big Spring to Austin, the move is priced as long distance.
Do you serve the area around the old Webb Air Force Base?
Yes. The old base is an industrial park and airpark now, and plenty of the 1950s and 1960s houses built around it are still lived in. We move families in and out of those streets all the time.
How much should I tip movers in Big Spring?
Tipping is up to you. Many people tip 15 to 20 percent of the bill split among the crew, or about $5 per mover for every hour. Cold water or lunch on a long, hot moving day always gets noticed too.
Your Move Is Our Priority
“My husband works a 14 on, 14 off schedule out of Pecos, so I booked the whole move from my phone. They packed the kitchen the day before and had us in the new place in Midland before he got home. Not one dish broken.”
Marisol R.Odessa to Midland “Three guys, one truck, a 4 bedroom brick house off Grandview and my mother’s upright piano. Wrapped everything, strapped it like they meant it and were done by 3. The bill matched the quote to the dollar.”
Dale W.Odessa “Our closing got pushed back two weeks. They kept our whole house in their warehouse and delivered it out to Gardendale the day we got the keys. Easy.”
