The Road From Lubbock to Plano

Why we love Plano, Texas

Plano is one of those towns that earned its success the old-fashioned way, and you can still feel it. We like that a city of nearly 290,000 — home to Toyota’s North American headquarters, JPMorgan Chase, and Frito-Lay — still gathers in Haggard Park by the old Interurban depot, still fills Oak Point Park every September for the Balloon Festival, and still argues good-naturedly over whether the Wildcats, Panthers, or Wolves own Friday nights. The tree-lined neighborhoods are well kept, the schools are a genuine point of pride, and folks there treat their homes the way we treat the furniture we carry: with care.

To appreciate Plano, it helps to know the history that shaped it — a story that starts with rich black soil, a general store on the prairie, and a railroad that changed everything.

Early Settlement

Settlers from the Peters Colony began arriving on this stretch of Blackland Prairie in 1845, drawn by government land grants and some of the richest farm soil in Texas. Kentucky farmer William Forman bought Sanford Beck’s survey in 1851 and built a general store that became the focal point of the scattered community, even running the post office out of his home. When the town needed an official name in 1852, postal authorities passed over “Forman” and “Fillmore” and approved “Plano” — Spanish for “flat” — suggested by Dr. Henry Dye as a fitting description of the surrounding plain. It turned out to be an honest name for an honest farm town.

Cotton, Cattle, and the Railroad

Before the rails came, the Shawnee Trail carried cattle through western Collin County and gave early Plano families a second income beyond their fields. Everything changed in 1872, when the Houston and Texas Central Railway connected Plano to Dallas and turned those small farms into serious cotton operations. A fire in 1881 leveled fifty-two buildings and briefly reduced Plano to a tent city, but the town rebuilt fast — by 1890 it counted 1,200 residents, two railroads, two steam gristmill-cotton gins, three schools, and two newspapers. In 1908 the Texas Electric interurban line added hourly electric rail service to Dallas, and the restored depot still stands downtown today as the Interurban Railway Museum.

Community Spirit

Plano ISD is one of the biggest reasons families put down roots here, and its three senior high communities — the Plano Wildcats in maroon and white, the Plano East Panthers in black and gold, and the Plano West Wolves — recently aligned their mascots and colors all the way down through their feeder schools. Every September, more than 100,000 people pour into Oak Point Park on Spring Creek Parkway for the Plano Balloon Festival, a weekend of hot air balloon launches, fireworks, and live music. Come December, the Deerfield neighborhood turns into one of North Texas’s most famous drives, with block after block of elaborate holiday light displays. For a city its size, Plano holds onto its traditions remarkably well.

Modern Plano

Today Plano is the ninth-most-populous city in Texas, with roughly 288,000 people spread across about 72 square miles of Collin County. It has become one of the great corporate addresses in America — Toyota Motor North America moved its headquarters to the Legacy West development in 2017, joining JPMorgan Chase, Capital One, Ericsson, Samsung Electronics America, and Frito-Lay in a city that supports more than 210,000 jobs. People move here for the schools, the parks like Oak Point’s nearly 13 miles of trails, and neighborhoods that range from the Haggard Park Historic District downtown to newer sections out west near the Dallas North Tollway. It is a long way from a cotton stop on the Houston and Texas Central, and that is exactly the point: Plano keeps growing because it keeps delivering.

Lubbock to Plano 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 Plano?

We do. Our name comes from our home base on the South Plains, but our licensing gives us statewide authority, so Plano and the rest of the Dallas–Fort Worth area are well within our service map. Because Plano sits about 340 miles east of Lubbock, we handle it as scheduled long-distance work rather than daily local runs: we book your date, plan the route out US-82 through Wichita Falls, and dedicate a crew and truck to your move from start to finish.

Day to day, that means one team loads you, drives your belongings, and unloads you — no handing your furniture off between companies. You get a written flat-rate quote before we commit, so the distance is baked in from the beginning.

Does the distance from Lubbock make my Plano move cost more or take longer?

Honest answer: Plano is a long-distance move for us — roughly 340 miles and about six hours of driving each way — so it runs on our scheduled flat-rate long-distance service instead of same-day local dispatch. That does not mean surprise charges, though. Your free written estimate covers the travel up front, in plain language, so the number we agree on is the number you pay.

On timing, most Plano moves load and deliver on a tight, planned window because one dedicated crew handles the whole job. When you call, we’ll lay out the schedule for your specific dates so you know exactly when the truck arrives on your street.

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

For a long-distance run like Plano, 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 Collin County moves stack up fast. That said, we can often fit a move in the same week you call, and occasionally even same-day for the right situation, so it never hurts to ask.

If a closing date slipped or a Legacy West start date moved up on you, call (806) 300-7394 and tell us what happened. We’ve untangled plenty of last-minute timelines, and we’ll give you a straight yes or no on what we can do.

I'm moving between Plano and Lubbock — is that a move you do a lot?

It’s one of our most natural routes, since it connects our two worlds — folks chasing corporate jobs in Plano’s Legacy corridor, and folks heading the other way for Texas Tech, family, or a slower pace on the South Plains. Because we’re based on one end of the trip, you get a crew that knows both cities instead of a mover who’s guessing at one of them.

The run is about six hours on US-82 through Wichita Falls, and we quote it as a flat rate in writing before you commit. One crew loads in one city and delivers in the other, usually on a schedule we map out with you down to the arrival window.

Can you move me from Plano to somewhere else in Texas, like Austin or Houston?

Yes — our long-distance service covers a flat rate anywhere in Texas, so a move from Plano to Austin, Houston, San Antonio, El Paso, or any small town in between is fair game. Our TXDMV and USDOT authority lets us run these routes legally and fully insured, which is worth confirming with any mover you talk to.

Every statewide move starts the same way: a free written estimate that spells out the whole job, travel included, with no hidden fees. Once it’s on paper, one dedicated crew handles your belongings door to door.

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

Yes, and we encourage you to verify it rather than take our word. We operate under TXDMV #009155382C for our Texas authority and USDOT #3426928 for federal authority, and both numbers can be looked up in the state and federal databases in about a minute. We’re insured as well, which matters most on a 340-mile haul across the Rolling Plains and into the Metroplex.

Plenty of unlicensed operators advertise in a market as busy as Collin County, so checking credentials is the single best filter you have. If a mover hesitates when you ask for their numbers, that tells you everything.

Do your crews actually know their way around Plano?

We plan every Plano job like the out-of-town professionals we are, which honestly makes us more careful, not less. Before the truck leaves Lubbock we’ve mapped the destination — whether that’s a house in Deerfield in northwest Plano, an older home near the Haggard Park Historic District downtown, or a high-rise apartment at Legacy West off the Dallas North Tollway. We know US 75 and the President George Bush Turnpike carry the bulk of the traffic, and we time arrivals to avoid the worst of the Metroplex rush.

We’ll also ask you the questions locals would: gate codes, HOA rules, elevator reservations, where a 26-foot truck can legally sit on your street. By moving day, your crew isn’t finding Plano — they’re executing a plan.

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

Full-service means our crew shows up with the truck, furniture pads, dollies, straps, and shrink wrap, and handles the heavy lifting end to end — residential and commercial moves, packing and unpacking if you want it, and moving labor help if you only need muscle. For Plano, it all runs on our flat-rate long-distance service, so one written number covers the whole job including the travel from Lubbock.

Getting a quote is simple: call (806) 300-7394, tell us what’s moving and when, and we’ll put a free written estimate in your hands with no hidden fees. We take cash and all major credit cards, and once you book, your dates and your crew are locked in.
