Questions about moving in Austin

How many moving companies are there in Austin?

179 carriers based in Austin are registered with the US Department of Transportation to carry household goods for hire and updated their registration in the last two years. This page lists 150 of them, licensed moving companies first. 74 of the companies listed here are licensed for moves to other states.

How do I check that a Austin mover is licensed?

Ask for the company’s USDOT number and look it up in the government’s public record (every listing here links to it). For a move to another state the mover also needs an active out-of-state license, shown as an MC number. For a move within Texas, also check the mover with the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV).

Do movers need a license for a local move in Austin?

Movers that move household goods within Texas must hold an active TxDMV certificate and show their company name, TxDMV number and USDOT number on both sides of their trucks. Check the mover's certificate status in TxDMV's Truck Stop lookup before you book. TxDMV offers free mediation for fee or damage disputes, and you can file a complaint online or call (888) 368-4689.

What is the cheapest way to move?

Move less. Every item you sell before moving day is one less thing to pack, load and pay to carry. Price it to go, and let the price drop each day until you move.
