FAQs

What else should you know about moving out of state?

Any moving company helping you leave New Mexico must have the proper licenses and a valid U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) number. All the Hobbs movers we recommend meet these requirements, but you can verify credentials yourself through the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s database.

If you're planning a move across state lines, make sure to review the FMCSA’s Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move guide.

Should I use a local company or a national company when moving from Hobbs?

For a move within the same city, a local moving company in Hobbs will typically be your most affordable option. But if you're planning a move out of New Mexico, a national provider like Safeway Moving brings more long-distance experience.

When is the cheapest time of year to move away from Hobbs?

The moving industry in Hobbs tends to slow down in November and December because of the holidays and school schedules. That means you may be able to negotiate a better rate with movers and save during that time.

What are the cheapest ways to move out of Hobbs?

The most affordable way to move, especially within 50 miles of Hobbs, is to go the DIY route. Your cheapest bets usually include renting a moving truck like U-Haul or using a moving container company like PODS.
