    Whether it is a family changing its residence or business moving to a new office, moving is a major undertaking. A residential move requires carrying large items like couches, beds, and dressers. A business relocation includes the transportation of desks, file cabinets, copiers, and communications equipment. In both cases, the large and heavy items have to be carefully maneuvered through doorways and stairwells.

    Some people prefer to tackle residential moves on their own or with the help of friends. This can be very difficult and unpleasant… especially in the Texas heat! It is most efficient to hire the best, professional movers such as Around The Block Moving Company serving McKinney, Dallas and Richardson. Consistently known as one of the best local Dallas moving companies; they are experts at transporting large quantities of items without damage.

    DALLAS LOCAL & LONG DISTANCE MOVERS

    When hiring a moving service, there are a few easy steps that can be taken to make the process as efficient as possible. One detail that some people overlook when moving is to write the appropriate destination room for all boxes. Doing this will let the Dallas, McKinney and Richardson movers know exactly where to take each box, so that the items easily be unpacked and put away. Without this information, the moving company will have to pile all boxes together and you will have to sort through them later.

    Another reason to prepare in advance is to lower the overall service cost of the move. Everything that is properly packed and labeled will be handled more efficiently. This can save you money by reducing the amount of time it takes to move! Moving also requires a very large number of boxes and other packing supplies. People in the process of moving always seem to be amazed by how much stuff they have accumulated over the years.

    Around The Block Moving is top-rated and can help with any move in the Dallas area; large or small – from apartments and condos to offices. We offer completely free quotes as well as moving supplies such as boxes and packing tape. Ask about our senior and internet discounts when you call!

    Our company even offers a free checklist of items that need to be addressed before, during and after a move. This moving checklist will help you make sure that you don’t forget anything along the way. It is good to prepare for your move in advance. This will allow you to dispose of unnecessary items and reduce the overall volume of belongings that will need to be moved.  We also offer heavy furniture help including piano moving.

    What a great moving company! I have moved over 13 times and I can’t say enough how impressed I am with this company. They arrived when they said they would and were extremely professional and efficient. And the welcome gift was a really great touch! Definitely would recommend them and will be using them again.

    FAQs

    Moving comes with a lot of questions. Where should you move to? Which neighborhoods within that city are best for your family? Can you even afford to live there? As you plan your home or office move, there are probably dozens of questions you have when contemplating a move to Dallas TX. Here are some of the most common questions we hear from customers, and our answers, so you can better plan your relocation with Around the Block Moving Company.

    How much do movers cost in Dallas?

    Your final cost will depend a lot on the type of move (local vs. long-distance) and what services you need, such as packing or strictly moving labor. The average cost of a basic local move in Dallas for a studio apartment is about $320, while a two-bedroom home move will cost you about $668; a four-bedroom will cost you $1400. Storage services for a four-bedroom home will run you about $485. Again, the final price tag will vary with how long your move takes and how much stuff you want to haul with you. It will also cost you more in peak season than in the off season.

    Where should I move in Dallas?

    Like anything else, this is a highly personal decision, as you take into account your lifestyle, salary, employment, status (single, small family, large family, couple, retirees, etc.), and more. In Dallas, there are many exceptional neighborhoods and areas you may consider living in. Many of these places are still located in the inner circle of Dallas suburbs, so you’re never too far from the busyness of the city proper.

    • Addison: Known for its culture, proximity to Dallas and a young demographic, Addison is home to 20-somethings who want cheap rent yet with a good nightlife scene. It’s only 10 miles north of Dallas, offering a variety of high-end restaurants and Addison Circle, a lively, hip mini-downtown that attracts working professionals and young families.
    • Frisco: Known for its family-friendly activities and growth, Frisco plays host to many large corporations and was named the fourth best place in the country to live for first-time homebuyers. It has been exploding in population growth, and is home to the National Videogame Museum, IKEA and the Dallas Cowboys’ World Headquarters.
    • Farmers Branch: This is great because it’s so close to Dallas and you can easily commute back and forth. It’s an affordable place to live; in fact, it was ranked the seventh most affordable Dallas suburb. It has a small population, resulting in a small-town feel.
    • Plano: Known for its strong job opportunities and growth, Money magazine named Plano the third best place to live in the U.S. The Shops at Legacy and Legacy West have the area’s best dining and shopping options outside of Dallas proper.
    • Carrollton: Marked by diversity and affordability, Carrollton is one of the largest suburbs surrounding Dallas and is more diverse than any other suburb. In fact, it was ranked the 13th most diverse suburb in the state. It’s also a popular destination for new families because housing is affordable with a safe community.
    What is a good livable salary in Dallas?

    You’ll need a salary of $57,984 per year to live comfortably in Dallas. The median income is lower than that, though. Unfortunately, Dallas has the biggest deficit between salary necessary to live well and what most people actually earn. The median income is $52,210 and the median home price is $247,500.

    What are the richest parts of Dallas?

    Doctors, business execs, and lawyers populate the richest parts of Dallas. In these neighborhoods, houses sell for 6.92x the national median and household incomes are 3.61x the national median. The richest of the rich live in University Park, where the median income is $198,578.

    The richest neighborhoods in Dallas for 2020 include:

    1. University Park
    2. Highland Park
    3. North Dallas
    4. Bluffview
    5. Reunion District
    6. Preston Hollow
    7. Oak Lawn
    8. Convention Center District
    9. Government District
    10. Main Street District
    What is the least expensive city to live in Dallas?

    The most affordable area of Dallas in 2020 to live in is Lake Highlands, where the median household income is $50,989 and the median home value is $69,620. Remember, though, you get what you pay for: some (not all) of the cities on the list that are cheapest to live may also have sub-par schools or a higher crime rate. Always do your research so you’re not sacrificing what you really want!

    Is Dallas better than other cities to move to?

    No one can answer this with certainty, but living and working here for decades gives us a bit of bias. Any city could be the coolest in the world to move to, but if you’ll have a hard time swinging it financially, perhaps another area of the state would be better for you. The cost of living in Dallas is 101.6, which means it’s higher than the national.

    Here’s a quick list of what things will cost you here:

    • Sit-down lunch: $14
    • Dozen eggs: $2.77
    • Monthly rent for an apartment: $1,500
    • Monthly utilities for one person: $100
    • Dinner for two: $40
    • Cocktail at a downtown club: $10
    • Cappuccino: $5
    What other cities do people commonly move to from Dallas?

    It seems as though more people are moving into Dallas than away. Between 2010 and 2018, Texas gained nearly 3,400,000 inhabitants. Most people coming to Dallas are coming from Houston TX, Austin TX, Los Angeles CA, San Antonio TX, New York NY, Chicago IL, Atlanta GA, and Oklahoma City OK.
