BEST MOVING COMPANIES
IN DALLAS
2026

Fifteen Dallas moving companies compared on verified Google rating, review volume and what each one is actually good at — with the licence checks and red flags worth knowing before you book.

Who wrote this, how it is ranked, and why both matter. This page is published by Moving Company Guys, a Dallas moving company, and we appear on the list at number 3 — so read it with that in mind. Here is exactly how the order is produced: Google rating first, then review volume. Nothing else. We are third because we are one of only three movers in the city holding a straight 5.0, and the two 5.0-rated companies with more reviews than us are placed above us. Every rating and review count was read directly from each company's Google Business Profile on July 31, 2026 and is reproduced exactly as Google reported it.

The honest caveat about that method: ranking by rating first favours companies with smaller review bases, and ours is smaller than most on this list. That is why the review count has its own column rather than being buried — if you would rather weight volume over rating, the numbers to re-rank by are right there, and the answer that gives you is Wildcat Movers. The "best for" column is our editorial read of the services each company advertises, not a Google signal. Review counts move; check the current figure before you decide.

Short answer

Three movers in Dallas hold a perfect 5.0 Google rating as of July 31, 2026: Black Tie Moving (~1,600 reviews), Modern Moves DFW (123) and Moving Company Guys (54). By raw review volume the most established names are Wildcat Movers (4.9 across ~3,400 reviews), Suddath (4.7, ~1,900), Einstein Moving Company (4.9, ~1,300) and Evolution Moving Company (4.9, 1,295).

Those are two different questions and they have two different answers. A 5.0 across 50 reviews and a 4.9 across 3,400 are not the same claim — the first says nobody has had a bad move yet, the second says the company has survived thousands of them. Decide which of those you care about before you compare quotes. For smaller or specialty jobs — a single heavy item, a gun safe, or labour-only help with a truck you have already rented — smaller operators are often the better fit and the cheaper one.

The other filter that matters more than any star rating: whether the company will hand you a TxDMV or USDOT number without being chased.

The list in detail

1. Black Tie Moving — 5.0★ (1,600+ Google reviews)

Best for: White-glove and luxury moves. A perfect rating held across more than 1,600 reviews — the largest review base of any 5.0-rated mover in Dallas. Concierge model with a dedicated coordinator and binding written estimates.

2. Modern Moves DFW — 5.0★ (123 Google reviews)

Best for: Small local moves. A smaller crew-based operator holding a clean 5.0. Well suited to studio and one-bedroom moves inside the city.

3. Moving Company Guys – Dallas — 5.0★ (54 Google reviews)

Best for: Single items, gun safes and labor-only. That is us — one of three movers in Dallas holding a straight 5.0, on a younger review base than the two above. Three DFW offices, $135/hr for two movers and a truck, free certificates of insurance, and a genuine specialty in single-item, gun-safe and labour-only work.

4. Wildcat Movers – Dallas — 4.9★ (3,400+ Google reviews)

Best for: Apartments and heavy items. The largest Google review base of any mover in the city by a wide margin. If sheer volume of verified reviews is your deciding factor, this is the name at the top. Advertises 2× the TxDMV minimum damage coverage.

5. Einstein Moving Company — 4.9★ (1,300+ Google reviews)

Best for: Flat-rate transparency. All-inclusive hourly pricing; its site cites a Dallas Morning News "Best in DFW" gold award.

6. Evolution Moving Company — 4.9★ (1,295 Google reviews)

Best for: General local moves. Runs more than one Dallas-area location; consistently visible in the local pack.

7. 3 Men Movers – Dallas — 4.8★ (1,050 Google reviews)

Best for: High-volume residential. Texas operator advertising roughly 30,000 residential moves a year.

8. The Art Of Moving — 4.8★ (405 Google reviews)

Best for: North Dallas and Richardson. Well-reviewed operator north of the city core.

9. Around The Block Moving Company — 4.8★ (280 Google reviews)

Best for: Short-notice local moves. North Central Expressway base; strong short-notice reputation.

10. Suddath — 4.7★ (1,900+ Google reviews)

Best for: Out-of-state moves. Open 24 hours; veteran-owned, with a long-distance focus.

How to check a Dallas mover in about two minutes

1. Get the licence number. Intrastate Texas moves are regulated by the TxDMV; interstate moves by the FMCSA under a USDOT number. Ask for whichever applies and look it up. Both databases are free and public. A company that dodges this question has answered it.

2. Establish carrier or broker. Ask whether the company owns the truck and employs the crew. Brokers resell your job to a carrier you have not vetted. This is the single most common source of long-distance moving complaints.

3. Read the damage coverage, not the marketing. Basic released-value coverage under federal rules is 60 cents per pound per article — which on a 50lb television is $30. If a company advertises more than that, get the figure in writing.

4. Compare the whole number, not the hourly rate. Travel fees, fuel surcharges, stair fees, heavy-item fees and materials are where quotes diverge. A $125/hr rate with three add-ons beats a $150/hr rate with none only sometimes.

5. Insist on a walkthrough for anything large. Any mover quoting a three-bedroom house off a phone call is guessing, and the correction lands on move day.

Where we fit, plainly

We hold a 5.0 across 54 reviews. That is a real rating on a younger book than the national operators carry, and we would rather state both numbers than lead with one — if you want the company that has been reviewed the most times in Dallas, that is Wildcat Movers, not us.

Where we genuinely compete: single-item and heavy-item moves, gun safes, labour-only help, and small-to-mid local moves run out of our three DFW offices. Our rate is $135/hr for two movers and a truck with a $99 flat travel fee and a two-hour minimum. We issue certificates of insurance free for apartment buildings, there is no stair fee and no fuel surcharge, and we are a real carrier — USDOT #3918729, TxDMV #009567347C — not a broker reselling your job to someone you have not met. If that matches what you are moving, our Dallas moving company page has the detail and a quote takes a minute.

Dallas Movers FAQ

Common Questions

Three companies hold a perfect 5.0 Google rating in Dallas as of July 31, 2026: Black Tie Moving (roughly 1,600 reviews), Modern Moves DFW (123) and Moving Company Guys (54). The largest verified review base in the city belongs to Wildcat Movers, at 4.9 across roughly 3,400 reviews. The meaningful difference is how many reviews sit behind the number — a 5.0 across 50 reviews and a 4.9 across 3,400 are not the same claim, and you should read them differently.
Most Dallas movers charge hourly for local moves. Two movers and a truck typically run $130–$200 per hour across the market, with three- and four-mover crews scaling up from there. Expect a two-hour minimum and, at many companies, a separate flat travel or trip fee. A one-bedroom apartment usually lands between $400 and $700 all-in; a three-bedroom house commonly runs $1,100–$2,100.
For moves inside Texas, look up the company's TxDMV number on the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles website. For interstate moves, check the USDOT number against the FMCSA SAFER database. Both are free and take about a minute. If a company will not give you either number, that is the end of the conversation.
A carrier owns the trucks and employs the crew that handles your belongings. A broker sells your job to a third party you have not vetted. Brokers are legal and must disclose their status, but some do not do so clearly. Ask directly: "Are you the carrier, and will your own employees be loading my truck?"
A binding estimate fixes the price for the inventory listed. A non-binding estimate can change as the job runs. Hourly local moves are inherently non-binding because you pay for time used — that is normal and not a red flag. For long-distance moves, push for binding, in writing.
A large deposit demanded up front, no written estimate, no TxDMV or USDOT number, a company that will not do a walkthrough or video survey for a large move, and quotes that come in far below every other bid. Underpricing is usually the first move in a price-escalation-at-delivery pattern, not a bargain.
