How Much Does It Cost to Move from Dallas to San Antonio?

Most Dallas-to-San Antonio moves run between $1,700 and $3,600 all-in. The 2-bedroom apartment move on a weekday in shoulder season lands right around $3,100. San Antonio is 275 miles via I-35 South — about 35 miles further than Austin — and that extra distance puts it at the high end of the one-day long-haul window. Most moves under 3 bedrooms still complete in a single long day. Once you're into 3BR+ territory, a two-day move is usually the better call.

What we quote is what you pay. The 275-mile drive down I-35 is in the price. The fuel is in the price. We're not calling you from halfway to San Antonio about a mileage surcharge. The written quote we give you before the truck loads is the number on the invoice when the truck is empty in your new place. USDOT #3918729 is searchable at fmcsa.dot.gov if you want to verify before booking.

Every Dallas to San Antonio move includes professional movers, a 26-foot truck, 275 miles of fuel, furniture pads, dollies, disassembly and reassembly, and liability insurance. We dispatch from our Dallas Oak Lawn office or our Garland office at 2913 Big Oaks Drive. The Garland office is a little closer to I-35, so if you're starting in Garland, Sachse, Mesquite, or anywhere on the east side of DFW, that's the crew that dispatches. Same rates, same equipment, same people.

What's included in every Dallas to San Antonio move:
  • Professional movers — background-checked, trained crew
  • 26-foot moving truck
  • 275 miles of fuel — included in price, no surcharge
  • Furniture pads, dollies, moving straps
  • Disassembly and reassembly of beds and large pieces
  • Full liability insurance — USDOT #3918729
  • Written binding quote before work begins
Not included: Packing materials (optional add-on), specialty crating, storage, extra stair flights beyond first.

San Antonio Destination Factors

San Antonio Neighborhood Cost Factors

Where you're landing in San Antonio affects your total. Here's what changes the price.

Downtown / King William
Historic district, narrow streets, parking restrictions. Add 45–60 min for truck positioning.
Alamo Heights / Terrell Hills
Upscale inner-loop neighborhoods. Larger homes, heavier loads. Estate moves often need 4 movers.
Stone Oak / The Dominion
North SA suburban sprawl. Easy truck access, spacious driveways. No access premium.
Medical Center / Leon Valley
Dense apartment corridor near UTHSCSA. Elevator reservations needed for multi-story buildings.
Pearl District / Southtown
Lofts and converted buildings. Freight elevator access often limited. Book loading window early.
New Braunfels / San Marcos
On I-35 between Dallas and SA. We can drop off here without adding significant time or cost.
Dallas Origin Factors

Dallas Origin — How It Affects Your Cost

Where you're starting in Dallas matters. We dispatch from two locations.

Uptown / Oak Lawn
Urban origin adds loading time. Budget an extra 30–45 minutes for parking coordination.
