Moving of America helps families and businesses move from New Jersey to Texas. We are a licensed interstate carrier based in Ridgefield, New Jersey (USDOT #1601312, NJ License #39PC00096600), and we have been moving people since 2007. Our own team packs your home, loads our truck, and drives your belongings to your new Texas address.
Your Move Advisor builds the plan around the list of things you are moving, the services you choose, and where you are heading in Texas. Before moving day, we check truck parking, building access, and any HOA or gated-community rules at your new home.
Moves from New Jersey to Texas start from $1,250. Your price depends on the list of things you are moving, and you get a written binding estimate before you book. If you ask for extra items or services, we explain the change and confirm it in writing first.
The trip is about 1,750 miles. Most shipments arrive within 10 to 18 business days of loading, depending on your Texas city and delivery window. We confirm that window in writing before your move, whether you are heading to Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, or another Texas community.
Moving of America is the carrier on every New Jersey to Texas move. Our own employees load your home, drive the truck, and deliver your belongings. You work with one company and one team for the whole trip, from your New Jersey door to your new Texas home.
Before you book, check our operating authority on the FMCSA SAFER system under USDOT #1601312. Your written estimate lists the services and delivery terms for your move.
A binding estimate gives you a fixed price for the items and services listed. Your Move Advisor walks through your home room by room, in person or by video call, and writes up your estimate from that list.
If the job takes longer than planned, your price stays the same. If you add items or services, we explain the change and confirm it in writing before we do the extra work.
A move to Texas is a long trip, so we plan the details early. Services include professional packing, furniture disassembly and reassembly, protective wrapping, interstate transport, and placing items in the rooms you choose. Your MoveView package and written estimate show exactly what is included.
Tell us about fragile items, fine art, and pianos during the estimate. That way we bring the right packing materials and plan special care for your valuables. Your Move Advisor stays your single point of contact from start to finish.
Moving of America is a fully licensed, insured, and accredited interstate carrier.
Before moving day, your Move Advisor walks you through the valuation coverage options, what each one includes, and the mover's liability if something is lost or damaged. Then you choose the level of protection that fits you.
Most delivery problems happen at the new address, so that is where our planning starts. Cities like Houston and Austin have their own rules for truck parking and loading permits, and we plan around them for your address.
Many Texas homes are in HOA or gated communities with their own move-in hours and gate access rules. Your Move Advisor confirms the rules for your address well before moving day, so our team arrives ready.
The City of Houston limits large vehicles on residential streets. A truck taller than 8 feet or longer than 22 feet may park there only while it is actively loading or unloading, and large vehicles may not park on public streets between 2 AM and 6 AM. You can review the city’s large vehicle parking rules before your move.
In Austin, using metered or pay-station spaces for loading requires a Load/Unload Parking Spaces permit. Requests must be made at least 72 hours in advance. The published fee is $35 per permit, plus $10 to $16 per space for the day. As fees and procedures are subject to change, we recommend checking the city’s current guidance before applying. During planning, your Move Advisor works out how much curb space our truck will need and confirms any permit deadlines for your address.
The drive from New Jersey to Texas covers about 1,750 miles and several states. Our trucks usually travel I-81 and I-40 before entering Texas on I-30 or I-20, depending on your destination. Federal hours-of-service rules limit how long a truck driver can drive each day, so a moving truck takes longer than a car trip. Moving of America plans arrival times around real truck travel, not passenger-car estimates.
Weather matters too. The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, and Gulf Coast storms can affect deliveries to Houston and nearby areas. Texas summer heat can also be hard on electronics, candles, and other heat-sensitive items, so tell us about them during the estimate. Your team monitors conditions on delivery day and adjusts the plan when needed.
In Texas, a closing date or HOA approval often decides when you can move in. This is common in new-build and master-planned communities around Dallas, Houston, and Austin. Tell your Move Advisor about any date change right away, so we can adjust storage and delivery.
When there is a gap between your New Jersey move-out and your Texas move-in, Moving of America offers storage-in-transit. Let your Move Advisor know if you would like to use it.
Our team handles your move from the first walkthrough in New Jersey to delivery and setup at your new Texas home.
First, your Move Advisor walks through your home in person or by video call and makes a list of your things. We use that list and the services you pick to prepare your written binding estimate.
Next, select a MoveView Package, from Starter Move to White Glove, that fits the level of help you want for your Texas move.
Then our team plans the route to Texas and checks the rules at your new address, including truck parking, elevator bookings, HOA move-in hours, gate access, and any building paperwork.
Before moving day, our team packs, wraps, and labels your belongings based on the services you chose. You get an itemized list of everything going on the truck.
On moving day, we go over the Bill of Lading with you before loading starts. Our team protects your floors and door frames, loads your things, and secures them for the long drive.
Your belongings travel about 1,750 miles along the planned route. Most shipments arrive within 10 to 18 business days of loading, depending on your Texas city and delivery arrangements. We confirm your delivery window in writing before your move.
When we deliver, our team unloads your things, places them in the rooms you choose, and puts furniture back together as included in your package. We can also take away used packing materials if that is part of your moving plan.
Since 2007, we’ve learned that no two moves are the same. That’s why we offer flexible moving packages so you can get exactly what you need and nothing you don’t.
The table below covers the Texas destinations New Jersey residents choose most often, from Dallas–Fort Worth and Houston to Austin, San Antonio, and West Texas.
| Texas Area | Moving-Day Planning |
|---|---|
| Dallas–Fort Worth (Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, Frisco, Arlington) | Here you have the largest metro area in Texas, about 1,550 miles from our Ridgefield, NJ office. We plan around large apartment buildings, gated communities, and HOA move-in hours, and we confirm truck access before moving day. |
| Houston | Houston is about 1,630 miles from our Ridgefield, NJ office. The city allows large trucks on residential streets only during active loading and unloading, so we plan where our truck will park and keep the team working until the last box is in. |
| San Antonio (San Antonio, New Braunfels, Boerne) | San Antonio is about 1,830 miles from our Ridgefield, NJ office. Many families move here on military orders, and our military moving team plans around report dates and delivery requirements. |
| Austin & Round Rock | Austin is about 1,750 miles from our Ridgefield, NJ office. Downtown deliveries that use metered spaces need a City of Austin loading permit requested at least 72 hours ahead, so we build that into your plan. |
| Katy, Sugar Land & The Woodlands | These Houston-area suburbs are full of master-planned communities. We check HOA rules, gate access, and move-in hours with you before we schedule delivery. |
| West Texas (El Paso, Lubbock, Amarillo) | These are the farthest stops on the route. El Paso is more than 2,100 miles from New Jersey. We confirm your delivery window in writing and check access at your new home before dispatch. |

Whether you're heading to Dallas, Houston, Austin, or anywhere else in Texas, the MoveView package you select determines the services included in your move. If you need a short-term place for your belongings before move-in day, ask your Move Advisor about storage in transit, including timing and any extra charges. Review your valuation and protection options before you book. Your written estimate confirms every service you've chosen and what it costs.
Your NJ to Texas moving estimate starts with the list of your things, your Texas destination, your move date, and the services you pick. Your Move Advisor checks access at both homes, including stairs, elevators, parking, gate access, and how far the truck can park from your door. We also look at packing needs, special items, and any storage you may need.
Your written binding estimate shows the agreed price and the services included. If you ask for more, we explain and confirm the change in writing before the extra work begins. Request a moving quote for your New Jersey to Texas move so you can review the costs before you pick a date.
| What changes your price | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Household inventory | Determines team size, required truck capacity, and total labor hours. |
| Packing scope | Full-service packing, partial packing, and owner-packed cartons are each priced differently. |
| Access at both homes | Stairs, elevators, long carries, gated-community access, and downtown loading permits in cities like Austin affect labor time. |
| Specialty items | Pianos, fine art, safes, and crated antiques require additional handling and materials. |
| Storage-in-transit | All customers can choose to use one month of free storage when they need it. |
| Move date | Summer and end-of-month dates are usually reserved first, so book early if you plan to move then. |
The list of your things tells us how much truck space, how many team members, and what equipment your move needs. Your Move Advisor notes what is going to Texas, what stays behind, and what needs storage or special care. Two homes with the same number of bedrooms can cost different amounts because what is inside them is different. On a 1,750-mile move, every item counts, so decide what you will sell, donate, or leave behind before the walkthrough. Moving less can lower your cost.
A binding estimate sets a fixed price for the belongings and services listed in the agreement. A non-binding estimate is an approximation, so the final cost can change. A binding estimate gives you greater cost certainty for the work included.
Moving of America prepares your written binding estimate from your inventory and selected services. If you request additional items or services, we explain and confirm any price adjustment in writing before the additional work begins.
