Average cost of long-distance movers in Lubbock
In Lubbock, professional movers typically charge about $148 per hour. For the most accurate quote — even from the best interstate moving companies — you’ll want to provide specifics like how far you’re moving and how much stuff you have.
Factors that affect the cost of moving from Lubbock
- Distance of your move: The farther you travel from Lubbock, the more you'll pay. A short intrastate move costs far less than going cross-country.
- Amount of stuff you’re moving: The total weight and volume of your belongings directly impacts your cost. Taking time to downsize before leaving Lubbock can lead to serious savings.
- Services you add on: Packing, unpacking, and extra help from labor pros can streamline your move— but they also raise the final bill.
- Type of mover you select: From full-service movers to DIY rental trucks, your choice of move style will determine how much effort and cash you're putting in.
- Timing of your move: Peak moving season (summer) and weekends typically cost more. Moving between October and April — or mid-month, mid-week — can help cut down costs.

FAQs
What else should I know about moving out of Texas?
If you're planning a move out of Texas, your moving company needs to be properly licensed and have a US Department of Transportation number. Rest assured, every Lubbock mover on our list meets these requirements. Want to double-check? You can look up any company in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s database.
Planning an out-of-state move? Make sure to check out the FMCSA’s Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move guide to understand your rights and what to expect during your move.
Should I choose a local or national mover for my Lubbock relocation?
For most moves starting in Lubbock, a local moving company will be the most affordable route. There are 3 local movers to pick from, and we’ve already spotlighted the best options so you don’t have to sort through them all.
When your move takes you beyond Texas, however, a national moving company may be worth the higher price tag thanks to their long-distance expertise and streamlined logistics.
When is the cheapest time of year to move away from Lubbock?
Moving companies in Lubbock are usually slower in November and December due to the average winter low of 26°F, the holidays and kids being in school, so you can negotiate with a mover more during those months and save some money.
What are the cheapest ways to move out of Lubbock?
DIY moving will always be cheaper, especially when moving within 50 miles of Lubbock. The cheapest options for moving out of the Hub City are usually renting a moving truck like U-Haul or a moving container like PODS. We’ve also got a helpful guide if you’re looking for the cheapest ways to move out of state.
