What the Texas corridor data shows

  • Austin is the most connected Texas metro in our model with 98 priced corridors, which is why most Texas searches resolve to one of its route pages.
  • 33% of the set runs 1,500 miles or longer, where the model prices weight hard and the delivery window widens into a spread of days.
  • Houston to Seattle models about 2.2× the midpoint of Dallas to Kansas City; distance explains most of that gap and the market assumptions at each end explain the rest.
  • The heaviest pairing is CA (28), FL (18), CO (11), and 44% of the corridor set connects Texas with the West.

Texas moving cost questions

How much does it cost to move out of Texas?

Across the 167 Texas corridors we price, a 3-bedroom full-service move models $3,350–$9,850. The median corridor is about 1,275 miles; shorter moves sit below that band and cross-country moves above it.

Which Texas move is cheapest in your model?

Dallas to Kansas City at $3,350–$4,500 over 540 miles. The dearest is Houston to Seattle at $7,400–$9,850 over 2,155 miles.

Does the Texas city I move from change the price?

Yes. Labour-index assumptions for Texas metros run 0.94–1.00 in our model, and that adjustment applies to the crew-service share of the bill at the Texas end. Mileage from your actual address then sets the line-haul side.

Are these Texas figures quotes?

No. They are modelled estimates built from published tariff structures, our distance model and documented home-size weight profiles. A binding number requires a survey of your own inventory and addresses.
