Licensed long-distance movers running Midland, TX to Austin, TX — one written flat rate, our own crew and truck the whole way, no broker hand-off.
One written number, no walkthrough required.
Austin pulls Permian Basin families for reasons that have nothing to do with oil and everything to do with tech offices, university acceptance letters, and a job market that keeps expanding south of I-20. When a household calls us about a Midland-to-Austin move, it’s often one spouse starting a new position in the tech corridor or state government while the rest of the family plans the move around a semester start date. We’ve built our process around that reality — flexible pickup windows, honest timelines, and pricing that doesn’t punish you for a move that has to happen on a school calendar instead of a convenient one.
Unlike our straight shot to Dallas, getting to Austin means our trucks run I-20 East before cutting down through US-87 and I-10. It’s a longer, slightly more technical route at around 305 miles and 4.5 to 5 hours, and it’s one more reason we don’t hand this run to just anyone on the team — Emilio and Tank know exactly where that highway transition adds time and plan the day accordingly.

We quote this move on shipment weight and mileage, never on an hourly meter running while our crew is stuck behind a tech-corridor commute. A one-bedroom apartment near a downtown Austin high-rise costs differently to move than a four-bedroom home in the suburbs, and that difference comes from what’s actually going on the truck — not from how long traffic held us up on MoPac. Get a quote based on your real inventory and we’ll hold to it.
Late spring and midsummer are Austin’s busiest relocation months, driven by both the tech hiring cycle and university move-in dates. If your date falls in that window, book 4 to 6 weeks out if you can — it gives Colton room to build a delivery schedule that isn’t fighting three other jobs the same week.

For larger households, a full-pack option is worth pricing out separately — Austin’s older neighborhoods often mean walk-ups or narrow streets that slow down a self-pack move more than people expect. This route is one of our core long-distance moving lanes, and if San Antonio is also on your list of possible landing spots, our Midland to San Antonio page breaks down that comparison.

Have had nothing but good experiences with this company. On time and professional. Office staff courteous and on top of things, thanks so much.
They did a wonderful job and went out of their way to help me out. I would definitely refer them to anyone who is moving.
Paul, Numi and the team at You Move Me did an excellent job moving a family member from one place to another. They were responsive, communicated well and most importantly, they were very careful and thorough will all of our belongings. I would recommend them to anyone!
