What’s the “Texas Network”?+
The Texas Network covers all routes touching Dallas, Houston, Austin, or San Antonio — the four Texas cities in our active inventory. 70 active routes in total: Texas internal moves, Texas↔Florida (the heaviest sub-corridor), Texas↔Atlanta hub, Texas↔West Coast, Texas↔Northeast, and Texas↔Midwest.
Why are Texas-Florida lanes so heavy?+
Lots of relocation traffic. Texas to Florida (and vice versa) is one of the biggest interstate migration patterns in the country — people moving for jobs, retirement, tax considerations, and family. Snowbird traffic from Dallas/Houston to Florida is significant. Texas auctions also feed Florida dealer inventory regularly.
Do you handle Port of Houston pickups?+
Yes — with the same TWIC card requirements as other ports. Port of Houston requires TWIC credentials for unescorted access, gate-hour appointment windows, and 2-8 hour queue waits. Most general carriers refuse port runs. For Houston port moves we partner with local port specialists. Expect a premium over standard Houston door-to-door pricing.
How does Texas internal pricing work?+
Texas internal routes (Dallas↔Houston, Dallas↔Austin, Dallas↔San Antonio, Houston↔Austin, Houston↔San Antonio) are relatively short hauls (200-275 miles) and benefit from heavy carrier density on these lanes. Starting prices typically in the $400-$525 range. Pickup windows usually 1-2 days.
What’s the typical Texas-to-Florida transit time?+
Dallas to Orlando/Tampa runs 3-5 days. Dallas to Miami runs 4-5 days. Houston to Florida cities is similar — Houston is ~150 miles east of Dallas, so transit is comparable. Pickup is usually 1-3 days after booking.
Do you ship from Texas to the Northeast?+
Yes. Dallas and Houston both run to Boston, New York, Newark, Philadelphia, and Washington DC. These are long-haul relocation lanes (1,300-1,750 miles) driven by household moves, job relocations, and college student moves. Transit is typically 3-6 days depending on the destination.
What’s included beyond Dallas and Houston?+
Austin and San Antonio are also part of the active network. Austin-Dallas, Austin-Houston, San Antonio-Dallas, San Antonio-Houston are all standalone route pages. Outbound from Austin and SA to longer destinations (Florida, Northeast, etc.) is mostly routed through Dallas or Houston due to carrier-pool overlap.
