Moving Services We Offer in Midland
Local Moves Across Midland
From the older brick streets near Midland Memorial Hospital and Midland College to the newer subdivisions north of Loop 250 and out west toward the airport. Local moves are billed by the hour with a three hour minimum, and a typical Midland three-bedroom takes our crews about seven hours.
Corporate Relocations
Midland runs the oil fields from its offices, so transfers in and out never stop. We work with relocation coordinators, bill the company directly when asked, and pack the whole house while the employee is already at the new desk.
Long Distance Moves From Midland
Midland to Houston, Dallas, Denver, Oklahoma City and anywhere in between. One truck and one crew carry your home from start to finish, with a written quote and a delivery window.
Office Moves Downtown
Downtown towers and smaller buildings need dock times, elevator reservations and a certificate of insurance. We sort those out with building management ahead of time and move after hours, so nobody’s Monday is wrecked.
Piano and Specialty Items
Baby grands in living rooms, uprights in church fellowship halls, gun safes in garages. Each gets the right equipment and enough people.
What to Know About Moving in Midland
Midland grew from a railroad stop in 1881 into the oil fields’ office town after the 1923 Santa Rita discovery. The Spraberry Trend, one of the largest oil fields in the country, keeps pulling families in. When the rigs are busy, every mover in the area is booked, so call early when activity picks up.
Summer afternoons in Midland run past 95 degrees and spring brings hard west wind and blowing dust. We start summer moves early, cover furniture with pads and shrink wrap inside the house, and strap every tier in the truck. Every time we skip a strap, the wind finds it.
Midland Neighborhoods We Move Every Week
Older central Midland, around Midland Memorial and the streets west of downtown, is full of 1950s brick homes with hardwood floors, built-in china cabinets and one-car garages turned into dens. Those floors scratch if you look at them wrong, so runners go down before anything else. North of Loop 250 the houses get newer and bigger: two-story entries, game rooms, three-car garages packed to the ceiling.
Out west toward the airport and along SH 191 toward Odessa, a lot of families sit in subdivisions built during the last boom. Those moves are usually quick to load but long on packing, because nobody unpacked the garage from the last move. We’ve seen more than one garage still holding boxes labeled for a house in Houston.
Moving to Midland for Work
Coming in from out of state for a job? Most new Midland hires rent first and buy later. We can deliver into a rental, store what does not fit, and move you again when you buy. Two moves on one relationship, one crew who already knows your stuff.
Best Time of Year to Move in Midland
Fall and early spring are the easy seasons: cooler mornings, fewer school-year conflicts and more open dates. Summer is busiest because of school breaks and job starts, and late spring is windy. If you can pick, October and early March are our favorite months to move people in Midland.
A lot of newer Midland homes sit in HOA neighborhoods with rules about where a moving truck parks and for how long. Check yours before moving day. We also serve West Odessa and every town between the two cities.
Movers in Midland FAQs
Is a move from Midland to Odessa local or long distance?
Local. Midland and Odessa sit about 20 miles apart on I-20, far inside the 100 mile line movers use for local work. So you pay by the hour for the crew and the truck, drive between houses included, instead of by weight and miles like a long distance move.
How far ahead should I book movers in Midland?
Give us two to four weeks for a local move, more in summer or when oilfield hiring heats up. The last days of the month disappear first. If an employer set your start date, call us when you get it and we will pencil the truck in that day.
Do you bill relocation packages directly to employers?
Yes. A lot of Midland moves are paid through an employer’s relocation program. We send the written quote to your relocation coordinator and invoice the company. Anything you add on moving day is billed to you separately, and we agree it in writing first.
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.”
