We are a licensed carrier, not a broker, so the people who wrap your Fort Worth furniture work for the same company that drives it to Laredo. Pads, blankets and shrink wrap come inside the price, and we take apart and rebuild beds and tables at no added cost. See how our long haul crews out of Fort Worth run trips across Texas.
Fort Worth to Laredo Moving
Fort Worth to Laredo Movers
Hire Fort Worth to Laredo movers who know the long interstate run south past Temple, Round Rock and the brush country towns of Dilley and Encinal. We see your rooms by video or in person first, then hand you one written price that holds. Send us your move date and we start building the plan.
Ratings Behind Our Fort Worth Long Distance Crews
The Drive South
Fort Worth to Laredo: The I-35 Route Plan
How does a loaded truck reach the border without losing half a day in traffic? It leaves Fort Worth on I-35W, then stays on I-35 past Temple, Round Rock, Austin and San Antonio. The slow spot is south Austin, where I-35 between SH 71 and Slaughter Lane ranks 9th on the state’s 2025 truck congestion list. Our drivers leave at an hour that puts that stretch outside rush hour. South of San Antonio the road crosses Devine, Dilley and Encinal, so the crew fuels up and takes a break before leaving the San Antonio area.
Loading in Mistletoe Heights means working inside a city historic district, designated in 2002, known for early 20th century homes. Out in Crowley, the school district already serves more than 17,000 students and expects 20,000 by 2028, so new streets keep filling in. At the Laredo end, heat shapes the schedule. August afternoons there normally reach about 101 degrees, so summer unloads start early and the heaviest pieces come off the truck first.
Before a date is set, our Fort Worth moving team reviews every room on the walkthrough, counts the heavy pieces and picks the crew size. We check where the truck can park at both houses and how far the crew will carry. One coordinator keeps your file and answers your texts until the final box is set down in Laredo.
Before the Truck Rolls
- Pick a cooler fall delivery week
- Pack snacks for the Encinal stretch
- Ask Mistletoe Heights neighbors about parking
- Clear Crowley garage shelves before walkthrough
- Avoid I-20 peak hours on load day
- Pack May storm gear in your car
- Ask HR about Laredo relocation help
- Check Laredo Medical Center commute times
Bring this list to your walkthrough so nothing slips on the drive south.

Fort Worth and Laredo, Side by Side
Figures come from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey, so both cities are measured the same way.
| Measure | Fort Worth, TX | Laredo, TX |
|---|---|---|
| Population | 963,194 | 257,619 |
| Median household income | $79,507 | $63,915 |
| Median home value | $303,000 | $193,500 |
| Average commute | 27.1 min | 21.6 min |
| Median age | 33.6 | 29.9 |
| State income tax | None | None |

Home values run well below Fort Worth levels in Laredo, so the same sale price often funds a larger house or a smaller mortgage. Household incomes also sit lower there, which is why many movers line up a job before they buy. Laredo skews younger, and shorter commutes hand back time each day. For a family trading up, that mix makes an extra bedroom and a bigger yard a realistic goal.
One cost the table skips is the school tax. The Laredo Economic Development Corporation lists Laredo ISD at 1.1568 per $100 of value and United ISD at 0.725119. Two similar homes can carry very different yearly bills as a result. Check which district your address falls in before you settle on a purchase budget.
Laredo Changes to Plan For
- Local sales tax totals 8.25%, with a quarter cent going to El Metro transit
- US 59 runs toward Houston and is marked as a future I-69 corridor
- US 83 heads east to Brownsville and west toward El Paso
- Highway 359 is the direct road to Corpus Christi
Route Pricing
What Does Moving from Fort Worth to Laredo Cost?
Your price starts with the weight you ship, then adds crew size, the number of trucks and how close the truck can park at each house. Packing or storage shows up as its own line. After the walkthrough we put a ceiling on the bill in writing, and your total can only land at or below it.
| Home size | Est. weight | Crew | Typical range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio or 1 bedroom | 1,500 to 3,500 lbs | 2 movers, 1 truck | $2,650 to $2,850 |
| 2 to 3 bedrooms | 4,000 to 8,000 lbs | 3 movers, 1 truck | $2,850 to $3,050 |
| 4+ bedrooms | 9,000 to 13,000 lbs | 4 movers, 2 trucks | $3,050 to $3,550 |
Each range covers the crew, the truck, fuel, any tolls and the full drive to Laredo. Balances paid by card carry a 2.5% fee.

Leaving Fort Worth: Mistletoe Heights
Mistletoe Heights grew up in the early 20th century, and many of its houses have held the same families for years. Start with the attic, the garage and the hall closets, since the price follows pounds. Sell or donate pieces that will not suit a newer Laredo floor plan, then stage the keepers in one room. Every heavy item you drop lowers the weight we quote and can move you into a smaller crew tier.
Settling into Laredo: School Lines
Before you pick a street, check which district serves it. Laredo ISD teaches only inside city limits, while United ISD covers addresses both inside and outside them and enrolls roughly twice as many students. Give the crew your exact address, any gate code and a simple room plan for the new house. That way beds, desks and dressers land in the right rooms on the first trip.
More House for the Same Budget
Many Fort Worth sellers find their equity stretches further in Laredo, and the Census table below shows why. Some buyers shop near the Laredo Country Club and its 18-hole course, while others want room near the Max Mandel course along the Rio Grande. A larger home has more rooms to furnish, so decide now which pieces make the trip. Send us the new floor plan and we will map where each item goes.
May Storms on the I-35 Corridor
May is the wettest month at Austin's Camp Mabry weather station, with normal rainfall just over five inches, and your truck crosses Austin midway. We shrink wrap upholstery, pad every wood surface and strap loads tight so nothing shifts on wet pavement. At the far end, Laredo averages only about two nights a year at or below freezing, so a winter move there seldom meets ice on unload day.

Our Office
Your Laredo Move Begins on Dooling Street
The Dooling Street office in Fort Worth reviews your walkthrough video, matches the truck and crew to your weight and sets the departure hour. Planners count back from the south Austin bottleneck near Slaughter Lane so the truck reaches it at midday, not during the evening crush. Your inventory, paperwork and written price all come from this one desk. Call (682) 651-5505 any day of the week from 7:30 AM to 8 PM. Once the truck leaves, your coordinator sends updates from the road and answers texts about arrival. You also hear when the crew is a short drive from your Laredo door.
Your Fort Worth to Laredo price reflects:
- Weight of everything headed to Laredo
- Crew size for your heaviest pieces
- One truck or two for larger homes
- Carry distance from your Fort Worth curb
- Truck access on your new Laredo street
- Packing hours, if you add packing
- Storage days if your Laredo closing slips
- Stair or long carries at either house
The figure moves only if you add or remove items or services, and you approve that change in writing first.
