You deal with the company that drives your truck. Evolution is a licensed household goods carrier, not a broker, so your job never gets sold to an unknown crew. The brothers who started it still run it. You can choose a shared truck to save money or a dedicated truck for a set delivery date.

Route Plan
Fort Worth to Abilene Road Notes
Which way does the truck go? From the west side of Fort Worth, the crew follows I-30 until it feeds into I-20 in Parker County. TxDOT is adding I-20 frontage roads in Weatherford between FM 2552 and East Bankhead Highway, so we roll out early and pass that work zone before the rush. Past Weatherford the road opens into Eastland County. Cisco sits where US 183 meets I-20, a handy spot for fuel and a short stretch break before the last leg into Abilene.
Before load day, we check street access at your west side home. If the curb is tight or the drive is steep, we plan the truck size and the carry so the crew arrives ready. Unloading in Abilene brings a different quirk. Some homes get trash service from big alley barrels shared by several houses, and the city asks for open space around each one. Our crew parks out front and keeps that alley lane free.
Here is how we prep the job. A walkthrough counts the rooms you have now and the rooms you are buying, so the crew size fits both houses. We pick the truck, mark where it parks at each address and set a start hour. One coordinator holds that plan from your first call to the last box. Our Fort Worth moving office runs this lane often, so the plan starts with real street knowledge.
Your Prep List
- Learn your Abilene curbside pickup days
- Check Westworth's Waste Connections pickup schedule
- Time your final Westworth water meter read
- Measure the bigger Abilene rooms first
- Flag items for Hardin-Simmons campus housing
- Book an early start for August loads
- Keep medicine and papers in your car
- Label every box by its new room
Have this list handy when we walk through your home.

What Does Moving from Fort Worth to Abilene Cost?
Your price starts with the weight of what you ship. Then it adds the crew size, the number of trucks, parking and carry distance at each house, and any packing you hand to us. The walkthrough turns those inputs into a ceiling. Your final bill can land under it but never past it unless you add to the job.
| Home size | Est. weight | Crew | Typical range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio or 1 bedroom | 1,500 to 3,500 lbs | 2 movers, 1 truck | $900 to $1,100 |
| 2 to 3 bedrooms | 4,000 to 8,000 lbs | 3 movers, 1 truck | $1,100 to $1,300 |
| 4+ bedrooms | 9,000 to 13,000 lbs | 4 movers, 2 trucks | $1,300 to $1,800 |
Each range covers the crew, the truck, fuel and any tolls, plus the full drive west to your Abilene door. Card payments carry a 2.5% fee.

City Contrast
Fort Worth and Abilene Side by Side
Figures in this table come from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey, so both cities are measured the same way.
| Measure | Fort Worth, TX | Abilene, TX |
|---|---|---|
| Population | 963,194 | 128,053 |
| Median household income | $79,507 | $62,648 |
| Median home value | $303,000 | $183,700 |
| Average commute | 27.1 min | 15.6 min |
| Median age | 33.6 | 32.8 |
| State income tax | None | None |

The table tells an upsizing story. Abilene homes sell well under Fort Worth prices, so money from a Tarrant County sale often covers a bigger house with cash left over. Shorter trips to work hand you back time each day. Household incomes run lower out west, so line up pay before you buy. Many families rent for a few months, learn the town, then choose the street they want.
One bill the table skips is trash. Inside city limits, Abilene Solid Waste is the only hauler allowed to collect household trash under a city ordinance, so you cannot shop for a private contract. Rates follow the city fee schedule, linked from the City of Abilene solid waste page. Add it to your monthly budget when you compare costs.
What Changes After You Land in Abilene
- Hardin-Simmons University's campus address is on Hickory Street
- Curbside trash goes out twice a week on set weekday pairs
- Trash carts belong to the city and stay with the house
- Tree limbs go out cut to four feet or to the Sandy Street site
Leaving Fort Worth: Westworth Village
Every pound on the truck shows up in your price, so sort the garage and spare room first. Westworth Village runs its own water utility, and the city asks you to send a disconnect form when you leave. Mail that form a week or two before load day, then sell or donate what you will not use in Abilene. A lighter load can drop you into a smaller crew and a lower range.
Settling into Abilene on Trash Day
Abilene curbside pickup starts at 6 a.m., and the city wants each cart on the curb with a few feet of space from cars and mailboxes. A moving truck parked tight against those carts can block the route. Tell us your new pickup days during the walkthrough. We will set the unload on a different day or park the truck so the carts stay clear for the city driver.
More House for Less in Abilene
The Census figures below show Abilene homes selling for far less than Fort Worth homes. Many buyers use that gap to step up to an extra bedroom or a bigger yard. Before you fill the new guest room, decide what rides along and what you buy after you land, because weight drives the cost. We walk your current house and talk through the new floor plan so the crew count fits.
Abilene June Rain, August Heat
June is normally the wettest month in Abilene, according to National Weather Service records. August brings daily normal highs in the 90s, and the city hit an all-time record of 113 degrees on August 21, 2024. We wrap sofas and mattresses in plastic for wet days. In summer we start loading at first light, so the doors close before the worst afternoon heat.

Your Abilene Move Begins on Dooling Street
The Dooling Street team reviews every Abilene walkthrough, picks the truck and names the crew. Planners also set the departure clock. Frontage road work near Weatherford can slow I-20 during busy hours, so we aim to clear that stretch before the morning commute builds. That timing leaves daylight for a careful unload at your new address. Call (682) 651-5505 any day from 7:30 AM to 8 PM. Once the truck leaves, your coordinator follows its progress, texts you updates and lets you know when the crew is getting close. Questions about keys, parking or a late closing go to that same person.
