01 Overview

The Frisco-to-Houston lane runs heavy on energy, medical, and corporate relocations. Engineers headed to the refineries and offices along the Gulf Coast, doctors and researchers bound for the Texas Medical Center, and families chasing job moves all make this drive, and we handle it as a single one-truck job — our crew loads your home in Frisco and the same crew unloads it in Houston. Nobody else touches your shipment in between.

Headed out of Texas for good? North Texas moving crew keeps the entire haul on one truck with one crew, the price locked in writing before we load.

Down I-45 to the Gulf Coast

We leave Frisco on US-75 or the Tollway, drop onto I-45 South through Dallas, and run the corridor past Corsicana, Centerville, and Huntsville before hitting the spread-out Houston metro. It’s around four hours of driving, but Houston’s freeways are a different animal, so we map the final approach — beltway versus I-45 versus the Hardy Toll Road — based on exactly where you’re landing.

Who’s making this move

  • Oil, gas, and petrochemical transfers to the Energy Corridor and Gulf Coast plants
  • Medical and research staff relocating to the Texas Medical Center
  • Families moving for cost of living and master-planned communities like The Woodlands and Katy
  • North Texas professionals following corporate reorganizations south

What’s different once you arrive

You’re leaving North Texas’s dry-heat-and-tornado pattern for Houston’s heavy humidity, Gulf storms, and very real hurricane season. Flooding is the headline risk down there, not hail, so timing and protecting your goods matters in a different way. Sprawling subdivisions and tight inner-loop streets both show up, and our crews adjust the staging to whichever you’re moving into.

One flat number, held in writing

No meter running across 240 miles. You get a binding flat rate after we survey the home, a $140 deposit locks your date and comes off the balance, and we can warehouse your goods in our secured storage if your Houston closing slips. Get my free moving quote to see your Frisco-to-Houston price.

02 Why us

The name on the truck and the name on your contract are one and the same

Book SHWIX and the truck pulling up to your slab-built two-story is ours, the contract is ours, and the uniformed crew carrying your sectional down the stairs is on our North Texas payroll — your job never gets sold off. A broker works the other direction: they auction your move to whoever bids lowest that week, then drop out of the picture entirely.

SHWIX Movers
  • We own the trucks, and the full-time, background-checked movers riding in them work for us — we never fill out a crew with day labor pulled off a listing board
  • The number we write down is the number you pay — locked, signed, and accurate to the dollar before anyone lifts a box
  • The same crew the whole way through, from the first item out of the old house to the last one set in the new one
  • Texas (TxDMV) household-goods registration, USDOT/MC authority for interstate runs, and every job backed by full insurance with up to $1,000,000 in cargo coverage
  • One Frisco office and one point of contact, from the first call to the last box carried inside
What a broker does
  • Farms your move out to whichever outfit happens to bid lowest that particular week
  • Lets the price climb on move day, loaded up with fees that nobody mentioned at the start
  • Sends total strangers you have never spoken to into your home, your whole household trusted to people you cannot vouch for
  • Stays fuzzy about whose policy actually pays out when a flat screen ends up on the floor
  • Parks a call center between you and whoever eventually shows up to load, turning a simple question into a runaround

Questions we hear about this route

How fast can you get my household from Frisco to Houston?
Houston is about 240 miles southeast down I-45, roughly four hours of driving. We load in the Frisco morning and deliver same-day for most apartments and homes up to three bedrooms. Four-bedroom-plus loads sometimes deliver the next morning. Either way, the delivery window is in your contract before we start.
Do you charge by the hour for a long-distance Houston move?
No. Long-distance jobs like Frisco-to-Houston are flat-rate, not hourly. We survey the home, then give you one binding number covering the drive, fuel, crew, and all the pads and wrap. Local moves inside Frisco run hourly, but a 240-mile haul is always quoted as a single flat price.
What drives the difference between cost bands?
Volume first — a one-bedroom and a four-bedroom are very different loads. Then access: third-floor walk-ups, long carries, and elevator buildings add labor. Coverage level matters too if you choose full-value protection, and specialty items like pianos, safes, or large aquariums get their own line.
