The Road From Lubbock to Wichita Falls

Why we love Wichita Falls, Texas

Wichita Falls is a town that rebuilt its own waterfall — the original falls on the Wichita River washed away in a flood back in the 1800s, so in 1987 the city built a 54-foot cascade in Lucy Park and got its namesake back. That tells you most of what you need to know about the place. It’s home to the World’s Littlest Skyscraper, born from a 1919 oil-boom con and kept standing out of sheer stubborn pride, to Sheppard Air Force Base training tens of thousands of airmen a year, to the MSU Texas Mustangs, and to the Hotter’N Hell Hundred, the biggest sanctioned century bike ride in the country, run every August since 1982. When the Legacy Leopards and Memorial Mavericks take the field on Friday nights, the whole town shows up.

To appreciate Wichita Falls, it helps to know the history that shaped it — a story of a railroad bet that paid off, an oil strike that turned a small county seat into a boomtown, and a community that kept reinventing itself long after the derricks came down.

Early Settlement

The townsite of Wichita Falls was platted in July 1876 by M. W. Seeley, laid out around a small waterfall on the Wichita River that gave the town its name. The real beginning came on September 27, 1882, when the Fort Worth and Denver City Railway rolled in and the first town lots were sold the same day — local residents had lured the railroad through with property concessions along the right-of-way. Wichita Falls became the seat of Wichita County that year and incorporated as a city in 1889. The original falls didn’t last, washed away by a flood in the 1800s, but the name stuck long before the city rebuilt its waterfall a century later.

Railroad and Oil Boom Heritage

By the turn of the century, a web of rail lines — the Wichita Valley, the Wichita Falls and Northwestern, the Wichita Falls and Southern, and more — had made the town the transportation and supply hub for Northwest Texas and southern Oklahoma. Then came 1918 and the Burkburnett oil strike just up the road, and Wichita Falls boomed for real: bank deposits quadrupled in 1919, and by 1920 the city held nine refineries and dozens of factories. The boom even left behind the town’s most famous oddity, the Newby-McMahon Building of 1919 — the “World’s Littlest Skyscraper,” a four-story sliver of red brick sold to investors by a promoter whose blueprints measured the tower in inches instead of feet. The oil-and-rail money built the downtown that still stands today.

Community Spirit

School pride runs deep here, and it turned a page in 2024 when Wichita Falls ISD consolidated its three historic high schools — Wichita Falls High, Rider, and Hirschi — into two new ones, with students voting in the Legacy High Leopards in royal blue and gold and the Memorial High Mavericks in navy and crimson. The Leopard name honors Booker T. Washington High School, which carried it before closing. Add in the MSU Texas Mustangs at Midwestern State University and the Hotter’N Hell Hundred, which has drawn cyclists by the thousand every August since the city’s 1982 centennial, and you get a town that turns out for its own like few others.

Modern Wichita Falls

Today Wichita Falls is home to roughly 102,000 people, making it one of the larger cities in Texas without ever feeling like a big one. Sheppard Air Force Base, five miles north of downtown, is the largest and most diversified training base in Air Education and Training Command, putting more than 60,000 service members through training each year, while Midwestern State University — the state’s only public liberal-arts university — anchors the south side. Healthcare, retail, and the base drive the economy, and steady work plus housing that stays sensible keep drawing military families, students, and folks who want city conveniences at a small-town pace. Between Lucy Park’s 178 acres, the Circle Trail, and neighborhoods full of mature trees, it’s an easy place to put down roots.

Lubbock to Wichita Falls 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 cover Wichita Falls?

We do. Our TXDMV license (#009155382C) gives us statewide authority, so Wichita Falls is squarely inside our service area even though our trucks park in Lubbock. Day to day, that means we schedule your move as a dedicated long-distance run: the crew leaves Lubbock, takes US-82 east through Crosbyton, Guthrie, and Seymour, and arrives at your door in Wichita Falls with everything the job needs already on the truck.

You get one crew and one written quote covering the whole job, whether that’s a house in Faith Village or an office off Kell Freeway. Nothing gets handed off to a stranger halfway through.

Does the distance from Lubbock make my move cost extra or slow things down?

Honest answer: Wichita Falls is about 210 miles from Lubbock — nearly four hours on US-82 — so we serve it as scheduled long-distance, flat-rate work rather than the daily local runs we make around the South Plains. That doesn’t mean surprise charges. Your written estimate is built before moving day with the travel already figured in, so the number you see up front is the number you pay, with no hidden fees tacked on for mileage or drive time.

The main practical difference is planning: we’ll set a firm date with you in advance instead of squeezing you in same-afternoon, and the crew arrives ready to work the moment they pull up.

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

For a Wichita Falls move we like a week or two of lead time so we can slot the run, line up the right size crew, and get your written estimate squared away — end-of-month dates and late August, when Sheppard rotations and MSU Texas move-ins stack up, fill fastest. That said, same-week scheduling is often possible, and once in a while we can even pull off shorter notice if a truck and crew are free.

If your closing date just moved or the landlord sprang a deadline on you, don’t assume it’s too late — call (806) 300-7394 and we’ll tell you straight what we can do and when.

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

It’s one of the most natural runs we make, since it’s a straight shot on US-82 with Guthrie sitting right at the halfway mark. Students heading to Texas Tech, medical folks moving between hospital systems, families following work — that corridor stays busy in both directions, and one crew handles both ends of the job so your belongings are loaded once and unloaded once.

Because we’re based in Lubbock, we know exactly what’s waiting on the far end — which neighborhoods have alley access, where the student rentals are tight on parking — and we can usually pair your date with a run we’re already making, which keeps scheduling simple.

Can you move me from Wichita Falls to somewhere else in Texas, like DFW or Austin?

Yes — our long-distance service is flat-rate anywhere in Texas, and Wichita Falls is actually well positioned for it, with US-287 running straight down to Fort Worth and I-44 and US-82 tying into routes across the state. Whether you’re headed to the Metroplex, Austin, Houston, or a small town nobody’s heard of, the whole move gets one written flat-rate quote before we load.

We carry federal operating authority too (USDOT #3426928), so the licensing covers wherever the road goes. One crew, one truck, one price on paper — that’s the whole arrangement.

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

Yes, and we’d encourage you to check rather than take our word for it. We hold Texas motor carrier license TXDMV #009155382C, which covers moves anywhere in the state, and federal authority under USDOT #3426928 — both numbers are searchable on the TXDMV and FMCSA websites, and we’re fully insured on top of the licensing.

After fifteen-plus years serving the South Plains, we’ve seen what happens when folks hire an unlicensed crew with a rented truck, and it usually ends with a damaged headboard and a disconnected phone number. The paperwork exists to protect you, so ask any mover for it before they touch your furniture.

Will your crew actually know their way around Wichita Falls?

They will. Our crews have worked the town enough to know that Tanglewood and Country Club Estates mean mature trees and careful backing, that Faith Village near McNiel Avenue and Southwest Parkway is a grid of tidy mid-century homes, and that Kell Freeway, Kemp Boulevard, and Midwestern Parkway carry most of the crosstown traffic. We plan routes into the neighborhoods off Sheppard Air Force Base with gate access and timing in mind, too.

And if your move lands the fourth Saturday of August, we already know to plan around it — Hotter’N Hell Hundred weekend puts about ten thousand cyclists on the streets, and that’s not something you want to discover with a loaded truck.

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

Full-service means the crew brings the truck, furniture pads, dollies, straps, and shrink wrap — you don’t rent or buy any of it — and we handle residential moves, commercial moves, packing and unpacking, long-distance flat-rate runs anywhere in Texas, and labor-only help if you just need muscle. Everything gets wrapped and padded before it rolls, whether it’s coming out of a ranch house on the edge of town or a third-floor apartment near the MSU Texas campus.

Getting a quote is one phone call: (806) 300-7394. We’ll talk through what you’re moving and where, then put a free written estimate in your hands — travel included, no hidden fees — and you can pay with cash or any major credit card when the job’s done.
