3 types of moving companies you should know about in Texas.

There are many different moving companies and they vary in many different ways when it comes to prices, quality, insurance, and directness. No matter what the difference all moving companies can fall in 3 different categories and to arm yourself better when choosing a moving company, you should know what the 3 are.

1)   The fly-by-night movers: Usually these guys are unlicensed and uninsured and their rates may be low. It is illegal to

       operate with out a moving licensed and if something goes wrong you will not have the protection of the State to aid

       you. You can quickly find out if the company is licenses in Texas by checking with the Txdot. Currently there is 55

       licensed moving companies in San Antonio

2)  Local Licensed and insured moving companies: These guys are licensed and insured and offer reasonable rates. Their

     prices will range between $60 to $120 an hour depending on the kind of 

     coverage they offer. Know your liability coverage and their reviews when hiring them

3)  Van lines: These movers are mainly nation wide and offer very good coverage. They do have very high prices and take

      longer than the “Local movers” but they offer very good protection depending

     on the methods they use.
