Loading a south Carrollton house from the alley, or a 1-bedroom by a DART station with a reserved truck spot? Our local movers in Carrollton plan for both. As a locally owned moving company with a 5.0 Google rating, Polaris charges $139 an hour for 2 movers and a truck, and adds no truck fee, card fee or distance charge.
What comes with every Carrollton move
- Truck included
- A truck or travel fee is billed on each booking by some DFW movers, and one publishes $99. A north Carrollton 4-bedroom with 4 movers for 8 hours costs 8 × $219 = $1,752 with us, and the truck adds nothing to it.
- No trip fee to Carrollton
- Our office is in Carrollton, so getting the crew to you is free. Billing begins when the crew reaches your address.
- No card fee
- Your Carrollton bill is the same whether you pay with cash, Zelle, a credit or debit card, Google Pay or Apple Pay. Some movers add a surcharge for cards, but not us.
- A crew lead runs your move
- Every Carrollton move is run by a crew lead who brings the truck and their own movers, walks the alley or parking spot with you and sticks to your written proposal.
- Always on time
- Leasing offices keep set hours and closings run to a schedule, which is why our crews keep to theirs.
- Booked right away
- Tired of waiting days for a mover's price? Book an average Carrollton apartment online in a few minutes; for a house, a written proposal usually arrives in about half an hour.

Your actual total depends on what you own, how far the truck is from the door and how much packing there is. Stretch wrap, boxes and other materials are billed only when you ask for them. Your own written proposal sets out the rate and the hours we expect, and there are no surprise fees.

5 things that slow down an apartment move
What to sort out with your leasing office before moving day.
Carrollton neighborhoods, alleys and HOA streets
Carrollton spreads across Dallas, Denton and Collin counties. In the south, established neighborhoods have many houses that back onto an alley under mature trees, while the north has more newer homes, many of them in HOA neighborhoods. Interstate 35E and the President George Bush Turnpike cross the city, and the Sam Rayburn Tollway runs along its far north end.
Rail shapes the apartment side of town: the DART Green Line stops at Downtown Carrollton, Trinity Mills and North Carrollton/Frankford, the A-train ends at Trinity Mills, and the Silver Line stops at Downtown Carrollton. Many newer apartments and townhomes sit near those stations. An HOA may set rules for where a moving truck can park, so send its instructions along, and the truck and crew will be planned to fit them.
Koreatown Carrollton, around Old Denton Road and the President George Bush Turnpike, is the heart of the largest Korean community in Texas, and the parking lots by its markets and restaurants fill on weekends. Moving from an apartment nearby on a Saturday? Ask your building to hold a truck spot early, and the crew will be there on time to use it.

Where in Carrollton we move
All of Carrollton, from the stations at Downtown Carrollton, Trinity Mills and North Carrollton/Frankford to Koreatown on Old Denton Road and the HOA neighborhoods up north, plus Coppell and The Colony next door.
Coppell
Coppell borders Carrollton on the west, and a slice of southwest Carrollton is in Coppell ISD. Moves between the two are local: the same hourly rate, no distance charge, and only the drive between your addresses counts as time.
The Colony
The Colony sits just north of Carrollton, on the shore of Lewisville Lake.
Moving between Carrollton and a city next door? Our Addison movers, Lewisville movers and Plano movers work at the same hourly rate, and no move inside our service area has a distance charge.
Moving in or out of a Carrollton apartment community?
Near Trinity Mills, Downtown Carrollton and North Carrollton/Frankford, apartment communities set their own move hours, and many ask you to reserve a parking spot for the moving truck. Ask the leasing office 3 things when you sign the lease:
- What hours movers can work, on weekdays and on Saturdays
- Which spot the truck should use, and whether it needs a reservation
- Whether the crew needs a gate fob or a key from the office on moving day
Send those answers when you ask for a quote. With them, our apartment movers in Carrollton bring the right crew and truck for that spot, and moving pads go around every piece of furniture before it leaves your apartment.
Our online booking covers an average apartment. If you have more than that, such as a crowded storage closet, a piano or extra-heavy furniture, call (214) 204-7224 or ask us for an exact quote, and your price will reflect what you own.
What Carrollton moves usually look like
Most south Carrollton houses are single-story and load quickly, often from the alley: 3 movers at $179 an hour, and the 26-ft truck is in the rate. A 1-bedroom near Trinity Mills or Downtown Carrollton usually needs a 2-mover crew with the 16-ft truck, and bigger homes in north Carrollton often take 4 movers; our crews have 5 to 10+ years of experience. Beds and tables come apart at the old house and go back together at the new one as part of every Carrollton move, at the same hourly rate.

Before you move to Carrollton
Carrollton has deregulated electricity: Oncor delivers the power, and you pick a retail plan before you move in. The City of Carrollton bills water, and Republic Services collects household trash and recycling under the city's contract; you start or stop collection through the city. Apartment communities use that same city service, as a city ordinance requires.
Most of the city is in Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD. The north is in Lewisville ISD, the southwest in Coppell ISD, a small southeast corner in Dallas ISD and the Collin County part in Plano ISD, so check your address before you sign.
Leaving old furniture behind at a house? Carrollton collects bulk items weekly on your regular trash day, up to 3 cubic yards, from the street curb in front of the house, not the alley. Set them out no earlier than 6 p.m. the night before, or let our crew take them as a haul-away load.
FAQs
Can you load from the alley behind my south Carrollton house?
Often, yes. Tell us when you book, and the crew lead checks the alley's width, overhead wires and low branches first.
Do you move people between Carrollton and Farmers Branch?
Yes. It's a local move: your usual hourly rate and no distance charge.
How long does a Carrollton 2-bedroom take?
Usually 4–6 hours with 2 movers. Past the 3-hour minimum, a Carrollton 2-bedroom is billed in 15-minute steps at the same hourly rate.
Is moving on a Saturday more expensive?
No. A Carrollton move on Saturday or Sunday costs the same rate as one on a weekday, and there's no weekend fee.
Is a tip expected?
No. Tipping is your choice: the crew won't ask, and we never put a tip on your bill. Any tip you leave goes to the crew.
Who licenses Polaris, and what insurance is there?
The Texas DMV licenses us as a household goods mover. We hold all the insurance required by Texas law, and cargo insurance too.
