The company that walks through your San Antonio home is the company that drives it to the coast, because Evolution is a licensed carrier and not a broker. Our movers are full-time employees who finish a training program before they work a job. Free released-value coverage comes standard, and you can add more protection if you want it. See how our long haul service from San Antonio works.

How San Antonio Customers Rate Our Coastal Crews
Route Brief
San Antonio to Corpus Christi Drive Plan Along I-37
Most loads leave our North Side office on US 281 and drop into downtown, where it joins I-37, the Staff Sergeant William J. Bordelon Freeway. Traffic stacks up at that junction. The I-35 and I-10 segment that ends there ranks 43rd on the 2025 Texas 100 most congested list, so our drivers clear downtown before the morning rush. We fuel up in town before loading, so the crew can run the open miles south without a long stop. The final stretch runs straight into Corpus Christi.
Loading in Southtown often means Lavaca, one of San Antonio’s 32 local historic districts, which reaches streets like South Presa and Labor. Crews pad porch posts, door frames and original floors, and the walkthrough checks where a truck can sit at the curb. Unloading on the coast brings a different rule. Corpus Christi will not let bulky items sit in the street, gutter or sidewalk, and it picks them up only during your section’s set-out window. That old recliner stays on your lot until the window opens.
Here is how we set it up. A walkthrough lists every heavy piece and tight turn, so the right number of movers shows up the first time. We plan where the truck parks at both addresses and note any gate code you need. One coordinator owns your file from the first call to the last box. Meet our moving team in San Antonio before you book.
Before the Truck Rolls
- Upload PCS orders and amendments to DPS
- Beat the May through August peak
- Clear Lavaca curb space with neighbors
- Hold bulky trash for your set-out week
- Keep snacks and water in your own car
- Watch September rain before load day
- Ask for an early I-37 departure
- Text gate codes for Southside subdivisions
Your walkthrough flags any item on this list that could change your price.

How Much Does a San Antonio to Corpus Christi Move Cost?
Weight sets most of the price on this run, since the drive itself is short. We add crew size, the number of trucks, long carries at Lavaca or Southside homes, and extras like packing or storage. Your written figure then acts as a ceiling. The bill can land below it, and it only rises if you approve added work.
| Home | Shipment weight | Movers | Range for this route |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio or 1 bedroom | 1,500 to 3,500 lbs | 2 movers, 1 truck | $1,050 to $1,250 |
| 2 to 3 bedrooms | 4,000 to 8,000 lbs | 3 movers, 1 truck | $1,250 to $1,450 |
| 4+ bedrooms | 9,000 to 13,000 lbs | 4 movers, 2 trucks | $1,450 to $1,950 |
Each range covers the crew, the truck, fuel and any tolls on the drive to Corpus Christi, plus pads and shrink wrap. Balances paid by card carry a 2.5% fee.

City Contrast
San Antonio or Corpus Christi: What Changes When You Move
The table draws on U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey estimates for both cities.
| Measure | San Antonio, TX | Corpus Christi, TX |
|---|---|---|
| Population | 1,479,835 | 317,419 |
| Median household income | $65,056 | $67,394 |
| Median home value | $235,700 | $210,400 |
| Average commute | 24.5 min | 21.3 min |
| Median age | 34.9 | 36.9 |
| State income tax | None | None |

Corpus Christi is a much smaller city with a shorter typical commute, so many newcomers trade freeway time for time near the water. Home values run a little lower than in San Antonio while household incomes sit close together. That gap can free up budget for a larger yard or for coastal insurance. The population also skews slightly older, which shows in the many settled neighborhoods.
Insurance is the cost the table leaves out. Nueces County is one of 14 first-tier coastal counties where the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association sells wind and hail coverage, and Bexar County is not on that list. Price a policy before you close. The TWIA coverage eligibility page explains who qualifies.
Coastal Realities to Plan For
- The Army's helicopter repair depot on the naval air station is the largest in the world
- More than 8,300 people work at NAS Corpus Christi
- City right of way permits can take 7 to 21 business days to review
- The city's Southside plan, adopted in March 2020, expects growth to continue
Leaving San Antonio: Pack Light
Weight drives what you pay on this lane, so sort closets and the garage two weeks out. Sell or donate pieces that will not fit a smaller coastal floor plan. Coastal life also calls for a storm plan, so start one now. Pack a small grab bag of papers, medicine and chargers that rides in your car, not on our truck.
Settling into Corpus Christi's Southside
The city's Southside plan covers land south of South Padre Island Drive and east of the Crosstown Expressway, edged by Oso Creek and Oso Bay. It says this part of town is getting most of the new building in Corpus Christi. Many buyers land in tree-lined streets off Yorktown Boulevard. Send us your HOA truck rules, gate details and closing time, and we line up the crew to match.
PCS Orders: Lackland to NAS Corpus
JBSA's personal property office says peak moving season runs May through August, with about 4,500 customer shipments in that window. If your orders send you to Naval Air Station Corpus Christi, you join the base where Naval Air Training Command headquarters moved in 1972. Pick dates early and send us your report date. We build the walkthrough, packing day and load around it so nothing slips.
September Rain on the Coastal Bend
National Weather Service normals put average September rain in Corpus Christi at about 5.42 inches. A late summer move can meet a sudden downpour at the door. Our crews shrink-wrap upholstery, pad wood pieces, and lay floor runners at both homes. Boxes go from the porch straight onto the truck. Keep a few towels by the entry, and we will keep your things dry.

Local Office
Your Corpus Christi Move Starts on Parliament Street
Your move is run from 11955 Parliament St, Suite 1308. Staff there review your walkthrough, choose the truck and crew, and set a departure that gets through the downtown I-37 interchange ahead of heavy traffic. If you live on the West Side, our second office at 9528 Culebra Rd #140-4 can start the same process. Call (210) 944-8858 Monday to Saturday, 7:30 AM to 7:30 PM. The office is closed Sunday. Once your truck leaves, your coordinator stays a text away. You hear when the crew is close to your new door, so you know when to be there.

- Carry distance at Southside or Lavaca doors
- Stairs, elevators or narrow historic entries
- Packing help before the drive
- Storage until your Corpus Christi closing
- Pianos, safes or other heavy pieces
If your inventory grows or an address changes, we write up the new price and wait for your signature before it applies.
