The Road From Lubbock to Laredo

Why we love Laredo, Texas

Laredo is one of the most distinctive cities we get to work in. It’s the busiest inland port in the country — the World Trade Bridge alone handles thousands of trucks a day, so as movers, we respect a town that knows freight better than anybody. Downtown, San Agustín Plaza and its cathedral sit on ground that’s been settled since 1755, Texas A&M International University anchors the north side, and every February the whole city turns out for the Washington’s Birthday Celebration, the biggest of its kind in the United States. Friday nights belong to the Martin Tigers, the Nixon Mustangs, the United Longhorns, and the Alexander Bulldogs, and summer nights belong to the Tecolotes at Uni-Trade Stadium.

To appreciate Laredo, it helps to know the history that shaped it — because few Texas cities carry as much of it. This is a town older than the United States itself, one that has flown seven flags and built its living on the river crossing for more than two and a half centuries. Here’s the short version of how the Gateway City came to be.

Early Settlement

Laredo was founded on May 15, 1755, when Don Tomás Sánchez de la Barrera brought three families to a crossing on the north bank of the Rio Grande. He named the settlement Villa de San Agustín de Laredo, after the town of Laredo on Spain’s Bay of Biscay, as part of José de Escandón’s colonization of Nuevo Santander. Unlike most Spanish settlements of the era, it was established without a mission or a presidio, which makes it one of the oldest independent settlements in Texas. Within two years the villa counted eighty-five residents running roughly nine thousand head of sheep, goats, and cattle on the surrounding brush country. In 1840 the town even served as capital of the short-lived Republic of the Rio Grande, a chapter still remembered at the museum on San Agustín Plaza.

Trade on the Rio Grande

Laredo’s economic story has always been the river crossing. Ranching sustained the villa through its first century, and when the railroads arrived in the early 1880s, the town became a genuine trade corridor between Mexico and the United States. That role kept growing until it defined the city: the eight-lane World Trade Bridge opened in 2000, and on busy days it moves on the order of fifteen thousand trucks. By 2023 Port Laredo had become the number one port in the entire United States by trade value — ahead of Los Angeles and every coastal harbor — a title it held again in 2024 with roughly a third of a trillion dollars in goods crossing each year. Around a third of local jobs are tied to trade, transportation, warehousing, and customs work, which tells you exactly what keeps this city running.

Community Spirit

For a city its size, Laredo holds onto its traditions tighter than just about anywhere in Texas. The Washington’s Birthday Celebration has run every February since 1898 and has grown into the largest of its kind in the country, drawing around four hundred thousand people for parades, pageants, an air show, and the famous Jalapeño Festival. Two school districts serve the city — Laredo ISD on the older central and south sides, United ISD across the newer north and east — and the rivalries run deep: Martin Tigers, Nixon Mustangs, United Longhorns, Alexander Bulldogs, LBJ Wolves, and United South Panthers all pack the stands. Add the Tecolotes de los Dos Laredos, a binational baseball club that splits its home games between Uni-Trade Stadium and Nuevo Laredo, and you get a community spirit that literally spans two countries.

Modern Laredo

Today Laredo is home to more than a quarter-million people, making it one of the largest cities on the entire U.S.-Mexico border. Texas A&M International University anchors the northeast side of town, Loop 20 — the Bob Bullock Loop — ties the World Trade Bridge to the growing neighborhoods along the city’s edge, and subdivisions like Del Mar, San Isidro, La Bota Ranch, and Winfield keep adding rooftops. People move here for steady work in logistics and trade, short commutes, and a culture you simply can’t find anywhere else in Texas. It’s a city that’s genuinely growing, which means a lot of families need a mover they can count on.

Lubbock to Laredo Moving — Frequently Asked Questions

Here are a few answers to common questions we get from our customers. If you have any more questions — don’t hesitate to give us a call!

You're called LUBBOCK Moving Company — do you really handle moves in Laredo?

We do. Our home base is in Lubbock, but we hold statewide operating authority (TXDMV #009155382C) and federal authority (USDOT #3426928), so anywhere in Texas is fair territory for us — including Laredo, about 500 miles south by way of US-87 through San Angelo and then I-35 out of San Antonio. Day to day, that means Laredo moves are planned jobs on our long-distance calendar rather than a truck we keep parked in Webb County.

When you book, we set a firm date, dispatch a dedicated crew and truck from Lubbock, and handle your load start to finish — no handing your furniture off to a partner carrier halfway down the road. For families moving between the South Plains and the border, or anywhere across the state, it works cleanly because one crew is responsible for the whole job.

Does being so far from Lubbock make my move cost more or take longer?

We’ll be straight with you: Laredo is a genuine long-distance run for us — around eight hours of driving down US-87 and I-35 — so it’s handled as scheduled flat-rate service, not a daily local route. That’s actually to your benefit, because a flat-rate long-distance quote is written before we ever load a box, and the travel is already built into it. There’s no clock running against you on the highway and no fuel or mileage surprise added at the end.

Timing-wise, most Laredo moves are loaded and delivered on a tight, agreed schedule that we put in writing along with the quote. You’ll know your pickup window and your delivery window before you commit to anything, and the number we quote is the number you pay.

How far ahead do I need to book, and can you handle short notice?

For a long-distance city like Laredo, the more lead time the better — a couple of weeks lets us lock in your preferred dates, especially around the end of the month and summer, when everyone in Texas seems to move at once. That said, we regularly fit jobs in on a same-week basis, and depending on where our trucks are, same-day help is sometimes possible for parts of a move like labor or packing.

The best first step is a quick call to (806) 300-7394. We’ll check the calendar, tell you honestly what dates we can commit to, and get a free written estimate in your hands so you can decide without pressure.

I'm moving from Laredo up to Lubbock — is that a move you do a lot?

It’s one of the most natural routes we run, since one end of the move is literally our home town. Plenty of folks make this exact trip — students heading to Texas Tech, families chasing work, people trading border heat for High Plains weather — and the drive follows I-35 up to San Antonio country, then US-87 north through San Angelo and Big Spring onto the Caprock. Because we’re based in Lubbock, the delivery end of your move happens on streets our crews drive every single day.

It works just as well in reverse if you’re leaving Lubbock for Laredo. Either direction, you get one flat-rate written quote, one crew, and one truck carrying your things the whole way.

Can you move me from Laredo to other Texas cities, like San Antonio, Austin, or Houston?

Yes — our long-distance service is flat-rate to anywhere in Texas, and Laredo is well positioned for it. I-35 runs straight up to San Antonio and Austin, and US-59 heads northeast toward Houston, so the common routes out of the Gateway City are ones we know well. Whether you’re following a logistics job up the I-35 corridor or moving family across the state, the process is the same: one written flat-rate quote that covers the whole trip.

We also hold federal authority under USDOT #3426928, so if your plans reach beyond Texas, ask us about that when you call. We’ll tell you plainly what we can take on and what the schedule looks like.

Are you actually licensed and insured for a move like this?

Fully. We’re registered with the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles as TXDMV #009155382C, which is the state license every legitimate Texas mover is required to carry, and we hold federal authority as USDOT #3426928. You can look both numbers up yourself before you book — we’d encourage it, because border-city residents see plenty of unmarked trucks offering cheap moves with no paper behind them.

Insurance matters most on a long haul like Lubbock to Laredo, where your belongings spend eight hours on the highway. Ours covers the job properly, our estimates are written, and there are no hidden fees tacked on at delivery. If a mover can’t show you their TXDMV number, keep shopping.

Will your crew know their way around Laredo, or am I giving directions all day?

Our crews plan every Laredo job before the truck leaves Lubbock, and the city’s layout is one we’ve come to know: I-35 runs straight through it, Loop 20 — the Bob Bullock Loop — wraps the north and east sides from the World Trade Bridge down toward the south end, and McPherson Road is the spine of the newer retail and residential growth. We know the difference between working a tight older street near downtown and San Agustín Plaza versus unloading in north-side subdivisions like Del Mar, San Isidro, La Bota Ranch, or Winfield.

Before moving day we’ll confirm your addresses, parking, gate codes for gated communities, and any truck-access quirks, so the crew rolls in with a plan. You point out what matters to you; the navigating is our problem.

What does full-service actually include, and how do I get a quote?

Full-service means we can take your Laredo move from the first box to the last piece of furniture set in place: residential and commercial moves, packing and unpacking, flat-rate long-distance anywhere in Texas, and straight moving-labor help if you just need muscle. Our crews bring the truck, furniture pads, dollies, straps, and shrink wrap, so you’re not renting or buying equipment. You can hand us the whole job or just the parts you don’t want to deal with.

Quotes are free, written, and up front — call (806) 300-7394, tell us what you’re moving and where, and we’ll put a firm number in writing with no hidden fees. We accept cash and all major credit cards, and same-week scheduling is often available.
