Heat and habits are two major factors when deciding when to move to Austin. In general, the heat breaks in late September or October, making those months much more comfortable for a move. If you want to relocate when there is the greatest chance of finding available leases, however, July is a good choice, with many families and students starting and ending leases at that time. If you choose to move in the summer, just make sure you hire professional movers who will be accustomed to moving heavy items in the heat, rather than trying to do the work yourself.
Your move may be guided by any number of regulations, depending upon the type of move it is (i.e. Residential, interstate, etc.), how you are moving (i.e. Personal or military), who you choose to move you (i.e. Self move or hiring movers) and other factors. However, at Ward North American, our professional teams of movers are aware of and in compliance with all applicable regulations. As a result, you do not need to worry about whether or not we are following all requirements during the move. We will take care of every detail. In addition, we are always happy to comply with any special requests or instructions you may have regarding your move.
The average cost of a move from Dallas to Austin is between $1,300 and $4,900. The exact cost of your move will depend upon the exact distance between your current home and your new home, the number of belongings you have to move, specialty items that require extra care, the addition of services such as packing, and more.
| Studio Apartment | 1 Large Bedroom | 2 Bedrooms | 3 Bedrooms | 4 Bedrooms |
| $1,300 to $1,620 | $1,450 to $2,455 | $1,620 to $3,100 | $2,000 to $3,432 | $2,690 to $4,902 |
You may find it necessary to stop during the 3-hour trip between Dallas and Austin for fuel, a break, or a meal. You will probably not need to stop overnight since the drive can easily be completed in one day. Waco makes a convenient location for stopping, since it is almost exactly halfway between the two cities. We will always set a predetermined location for any necessary stops along the way.
Austin is a large city covering just over 271 square miles. Since public transportation and biking paths are not as developed there as in some other cities, you will need to own a car or live close enough to work to walk. As a result, the best place to live in the city is within an easy drive or walk to your job. In general, affordable yet up and coming locations are available on the east side of the city, so starting your home or apartment search there is a good choice.
The length of your move will depend upon a number of factors, such as the time it takes to pack your belongings, load the truck, drive to your new location, and unload the truck. It may also take extra time to drop items off at a storage facility. Once your belongings are packed and the truck is on the way, the drive to Austin should only take about 3 hours. When we meet with you to discuss your move, we will provide you with an accurate timeframe for your relocation from Dallas to Austin.
Road conditions can affect the efficiency and timing of a move. For example, bad weather or traffic jams can delay the trip between your old location and your new one. Damaged roads can also be an obstacle to a move. In order to prevent these issues, our moving team will plan their route ahead of time. Together with you, they will establish a reliable and efficient route to achieve a seamless relocation.
One of the biggest changes you can expect when you move from Dallas to Austin is in the general approach to life between the two cities. Dallas is more professional and traditional, while Austin is more relaxed and free-flowing. Austin is also a more politically liberal city, so expect changes in people’s approach to politics. Cooler weather and a culture that embraces cycling (As well as bad rush hour traffic) makes bicycling a popular pastime.
Planning an out-of-state move? You’re not alone — about 35 million Americans pull up stakes every year. Texas, the largest state in the contiguous U.S., has a culture and feel unlike any other. Here are eight some things to know about the state, and the people who live there.
As the capital of Texas, Austin has the big personality and vibrant culture that you would expect from the heart of the Lone Star State, and Texans know it. Read on to learn more about some of the many reasons to love, and live in, this city.
“Wants North American was everything we could have asked for on movers! On time, great crew, friendly, and efficient. The process was smooth and all my questions were answered quickly. The crew managed to perfectly jigsaw all of our items into a storage unit I never thought would fit everything! They assisted with junk haul off and were wonderful to work with. Will definitely be using them again once our house is completed and we need to move out of that expertly packed storage unit!”

“I’ve moved 15 times over my career. Rick and his team were by far the most professional, hard working and detail-oriented group we have worked with. Highly recommend them!!!”

“This is our 3rd move with Ward-North American. Moving is stressful, and they took much of the stress out of the experience. They did our Pack up, Storage, and Move-In. Highly Recommend! Ward always sets the bar. I appreciate the teams that made our move easy.”

“Andy and his crews were AMAZING! Very polite and helpful (this being our 1st time, we didn't know what to expect). They were fast and efficient at both locations! Andy communicated well before, during, and at the new location, kept us updated about when he would be there and such. Everything arrived in great condition! I appreciate them all so much!”
Jill H.
“From the beginning of my move, Erika, and then Elizabeth handled the quotation, scheduling, monitoring, and courtesy follow up with professionalism, sincere concern, patience, and good humor. The driver, Juan, was top notch. He and his crew handled all of the packing, loading, and, after a last-minute by me, the unloading. Again they were efficient, friendly, courteous, and handled all of my items with care. I highly recommend Ward North American.”
