Moving from Houston to Dallas Made Easy

Planning a move from Houston to Dallas? Whether you’re relocating for a new job, family, school, or just a change of pace, Poseidon Moving makes the process straightforward—from your first quote to final placement of furniture in your new home.

Houston and Dallas are both big, fast-moving cities, but the day-to-day lifestyle can feel very different. Dallas offers a strong corporate presence, a more centralized metro layout, and tons of neighborhood options—from high-rises in Uptown to family-friendly suburbs with great schools. No matter where you’re headed, our Houston to Dallas movers handle the heavy lifting so you can focus on the transition.

Most Houston→Dallas relocations can be completed with same-day delivery depending on the size of your move, building access, and your scheduled start time. And because this is a common Texas route, we know how to plan around traffic windows, apartment rules, and loading logistics to keep your move on track.

Moving Services Between Houston and Austin

Poseidon Moving provides full-service Houston to Dallas moving support for apartments, homes, and offices, built around a simple goal: make your relocation smooth, protected, and predictable. Our crews handle the heavy lifting from start to finish, including careful loading and unloading, secure transport along the Houston–Dallas route, and standard protection for furniture so your items arrive in the same condition they left. If you want more help, we can add professional packing (full-home, partial, or fragile-only), supply the right materials, and take care of common furniture disassembly and reassembly so move day stays organized. We also coordinate around real-world logistics like high-rise rules, elevator reservations, COI requests, and limited truck access, so you’re not scrambling at the last minute.

With transparent pricing and virtual estimates based on your inventory and move details, you’ll know what to expect before moving day—and you’ll have a team that stays on schedule and communicates clearly from pickup in Houston to delivery in Dallas.

We ensure all your furniture is wrapped securely for maximum protection during the move. Items included:

  • Couches
  • Chairs
  • Mattresses
  • Bed frames
  • Dressers
  • Tables
  • Shelving units
  • Cabinets

We’ll disassemble your large furniture for safe transport and reassemble it upon arrival. Items include:

  • Bed frames
  • Tables
  • Armoires
  • China cabinets
  • Shelving units
  • Desks

To ensure maximum protection for your belongings, we provide five specialty moving boxes at no extra charge for fragile, valuable, or uniquely shaped items. These boxes must be pre-ordered before your move date to guarantee availability.

  • TV Box
  • Picture/Mirror Box
  • Wardrobe Box
  • Lamp Box
  • Mattress Box

Loading: Our team carefully loads your items, ensuring they are safely secured and properly strapped inside the truck to prevent any movement during transport.

Unloading: Upon delivery, we’ll unwrap your items, place them exactly where you want, and ensure everything is set up to your satisfaction.

All transportation costs are covered in your flat rate. This includes:

  • Fuel
  • Tolls
  • Travel Expenses

We include basic liability coverage to protect your items during the move. This ensures standard reimbursement for any damages incurred, following industry regulations.

Pros of Moving from Houston to Dallas

Stronger Corporate & Career Opportunities Dallas has a large concentration of major employers across finance, healthcare, logistics, and professional services, making it a strong landing spot for career growth and long-term stability.

More Neighborhood Variety & Housing Options From walkable areas like Uptown and Deep Ellum to family-focused suburbs like Plano and Frisco, Dallas offers a wider range of living styles and price points depending on what you want.

Central Location for Travel Across Texas Living in Dallas makes it easy to reach other major cities and destinations—great for frequent travelers, weekend road trips, and anyone who needs convenient access around the region.

Family-Friendly Suburbs & School Districts The Dallas metro is known for popular suburban communities with strong schools, newer housing, and more space—often a big reason families make the move from Houston.

More Predictable Weather & Less Flood Risk While both cities get hot, Dallas generally sees less hurricane-related disruption than coastal Houston, which can make planning home life (and move timing) a bit more predictable.

How Much Does It Cost to Move From Houston to Dallas?

The cost to move from Houston to Dallas depends on a few key factors. Two moves can cover the same “distance” but have very different pricing based on what’s actually involved—your inventory size (studio vs. 3-bedroom vs. house), whether you need packing (none, partial, full, or fragile-only), and the access conditions at both locations like stairs, elevators, or long carries from the door to the truck. Heavy or specialty items (such as pianos, safes, or oversized furniture), high-demand move dates (weekends and end-of-month), and any storage needed between pickup and delivery can also affect the final total.

If you want the most reliable number upfront, the best approach is a virtual, inventory-based estimate. We’ll review what you’re moving and the logistics at both the Houston pickup and Dallas delivery locations, then provide a clear quote you can plan around. Ready to move from Houston to Dallas?

Frequently Asked Questions

Houston to Dallas is about 240–265 miles depending on where you’re starting/ending in each city. The drive is typically 3.5 to 4.5 hours in normal traffic (often via I-45), but can take longer during rush hour or peak weekends.

The cost depends on how much you’re moving (home size/inventory), packing needs, stairs/long carries/elevators, heavy items, and your move date. The fastest way to get an accurate price is to quote from your inventory + the pickup/delivery logistics—not just the mileage.

Most Houston → Dallas moves are same-day. A common timeline is 2–5 hours to load, 3.5–4.5 hours driving, and 2–5 hours to unload. Large homes, packing, stairs, or long walks from the truck can extend the day.

Quotes typically include labor, truck, mileage/fuel for the Houston–Dallas route, moving blankets, standard equipment, and basic disassembly/reassembly (like beds/tables).
Extras usually only apply for packing services/materials, bulky/heavy items, stairs/long carries, or limited truck access (which may require a shuttle).

Yes—most moves can include full packing, partial packing, or fragile-only packing. We also handle specialty items like pianos, safes, large TVs, antiques, and gym equipment (some items may need special equipment or an additional handling fee).
