About
U-Haul, founded in 1945 by L.S. "Sam" Shoen and his wife, Anna Mary Carty Shoen, originated from a need for do-it-yourself moving equipment available nationwide. Starting with simple trailer rentals, the company has expanded its offerings to include a variety of moving and storage solutions. These include truck rentals, self-storage units, moving supplies, and U-Box containers that can be filled and either stored or moved internationally. U-Haul is known for its customer-oriented approach, facilitating moves with features like free first-month storage with one-way rentals and 24/7 truck shares. It operates out of Phoenix, AZ, and extends services across the United States and Canada.

How we ranked the top Texas movers
Why you should trust us
We take reviews seriously to protect people just like you! Our team has been crunching data on moving companies since 2010. Our math-based ranking system uses data, manual review, and statistical analysis to help you hire the best movers in Texas.
Rating Methodology
Here's the methodology we used to come up with the best movers in Texas:

Our original review-based ranking algorithm
We started with a total of 1,885 companies that offer moving services in the Texas area.
From these 1,885 companies, we analyzed a total of 328,866 reviews dating all the way back to June 2007.
We also reviewed a total of 541 state and federal moving licenses from these 1,885 companies and 5,867 different 3rd party review and social profiles.
Each of the ~328,000 reviews was scored according to our detailed 11-point rating criteria
This gave us a total of 912,273 data points to compute individual company scores.
Reviews are time-weighted so that more recent reviews carry more weight. This helps you understand how a mover is doing today... not 5 years ago. We have 147,297 San Antonio moving company data points from the past 2 years that carry more weight.
Bayesian averages calculated to fairly account for the differences between companies that are newer.
