Full-Service Local Moving in Lubbock
A local move still takes a full day of hard work. Furniture has to be wrapped, beds and tables come apart, and everything has to fit on the truck and come off it in one piece. Our movers handle all of it, so you can focus on the keys, the utilities, and getting settled.
We move people all over town: from apartments near Texas Tech to first homes in south Lubbock, and from older houses in central Lubbock to new builds out toward Wolfforth. We also move families to and from nearby towns like Levelland, Shallowater, Slaton, and Idalou. Whatever the distance, you get the same crew from start to finish.
What's included in a GRIT local move
- A crew sized to your move, with our own truck, trailer, and moving equipment (dollies, straps, and pads)
- Furniture wrapped and protected with moving blankets, plastic wrap, and cardboard, plus doorjamb protectors at both homes
- Careful loading, transport, and unloading at your new home or office
- Taking apart and putting back together beds, tables, and other furniture as needed
- Placing furniture and boxes in the rooms you choose
- Optional packing and unpacking before and after moving day
- Optional junk removal for anything you aren't taking with you
Homes, apartments, offices, and storage
House moves: from a two-bedroom starter home to a full family move with a garage and a backyard shed. Apartment moves: stairs, long walks from the parking lot, and tight move-out windows are part of the job here, not a surprise. Office moves: desks, files, and equipment, timed so your business is back up quickly. See our commercial and office moving page. Storage units: loading in, loading out, or moving a unit's contents straight to your new place.

What Affects the Cost of a Local Move
Every move is different, so we quote each one individually. These are the things that change the price most:
- How much you're moving. A studio apartment and a four-bedroom house need different crew sizes and truck time.
- Access at both addresses. Stairs, elevators, long carries from parking, and narrow doorways all add time, and stairs are factored into the price.
- Heavy or specialty items. Safes, pianos, gun cabinets, large appliances, and gym equipment need extra people or equipment.
- Packing. Packing yourself saves money. Having us pack saves time. Many customers do a mix.
- Extra stops. Picking up from a storage unit or dropping items at a second address on the way.
The more detail you share up front, the more accurate your quote. Photos of large items help too.
How to Get Ready for Moving Day
- Book early, especially for the end of the month and summer, when Lubbock moves peak.
- Reserve the elevator or a loading spot if your apartment or office requires it.
- Empty and defrost the fridge the day before.
- Keep medications, documents, chargers, and valuables with you.
- Pull aside anything you're getting rid of. We can haul it off the same day.

Local Moving FAQ
How far in advance should I book local movers in Lubbock?
About two weeks ahead is ideal, and earlier for end-of-month dates or summer. That's when leases turn over and Texas Tech students move. If your date is sooner, call us anyway. We can sometimes fit in same-day or next-day moves.
Do you move apartments as well as houses?
Yes. We move apartments, condos, duplexes, houses, offices, and storage units anywhere in Lubbock. Let us know about stairs, elevators, and parking so we bring the right crew.
Will you take apart and reassemble my furniture?
Yes. Taking apart beds, tables, and similar pieces for the move and putting them back together at the new place is part of the job. For new, flat-pack furniture, see our furniture assembly service.
Can you move just a few items instead of a whole house?
Yes. For a couch, an appliance, or a handful of heavy pieces, see small moves. We'll give you a quote that fits the job.
I already have a truck. Can I just hire movers to load it?
Yes. Our labor-only moving service covers loading and unloading a rental truck, trailer, or portable container you've arranged yourself.
Are GRIT's movers licensed and insured?
Yes. GRIT Property Solutions carries general liability, cargo, workers' compensation, and commercial auto insurance, with USDOT number 4179725, FMCSA authority MC-1816373, and TXDMV number 009951535C.
Do you charge by the hour or a flat rate for local moves?
Most local moves in Lubbock are billed hourly, with a one-hour minimum. Larger projects may be quoted at a flat rate. Either way, you'll know what to expect before moving day.
