Your options
Is a shared truck cheaper than a dedicated truck to Dallas?
It depends on volume. A shared load is $11 per cubic foot, 400 cubic foot minimum ($4,400), so it costs less than the $10,600 dedicated truck only up to about 963 cubic feet, and delivery can take up to 21 days. Above that, the dedicated truck costs less.
| Option | Price | Delivery |
|---|---|---|
| Dedicated truck (One Stop) | $10,600 for most addresses | 3–4 days |
| Shared load (One Stop) | $11 per cu ft, 400 cu ft minimum ($4,400) | Up to 21 days |
| Portable container (One Stop) | $99 or $175 a month; shipping to Texas quoted in writing | Quoted with the shipping |
| Rental truck | Rental, fuel and your own time | You drive it |

After you arrive
What do I need to do after moving to Dallas?
Register your car within 30 days of arriving in Texas; your California license works for up to 90 days, so get a Texas license before then. Most Dallas–Fort Worth homes choose their own electricity retailer while Oncor runs the lines, so pick a plan before the truck arrives.

When is the best time to move to Dallas?
Fall is the easiest. Dallas–Fort Worth summers are hot, and spring brings severe storms and hail, so keep a little slack around delivery day and carry heat-sensitive things in your car. Delivery is 3–4 days on a dedicated truck.
