Our Roots in Abernathy, Texas

Why we love Abernathy, Texas

Abernathy is our kind of town. The Plains Grain Company elevator has stood over the rail line since 1920, Friday nights still belong to the Antelopes at the stadium on Avenue H, and the old Struve mercantile buildings downtown remind you this place was built by people who did real work. It’s a farm town that never stopped being one — cotton and grain country with a Main Street that still gathers for the Jamboree street festival — and it’s close enough to Lubbock that folks get small-town life without giving up the city twenty minutes south.

To appreciate Abernathy, it helps to know the history that shaped it — a story that starts with a railroad survey, a stubborn stretch of prairie, and a whole town’s worth of buildings hauled in on wheels.

Early Settlement

Abernathy was born in 1909, when the Santa Fe Railroad built its line from Plainview down to Lubbock across the open Llano Estacado. The town site was platted on July 8, 1909, on the last section south in Hale County, and named for M.C. Abernathy, treasurer of the South Plains Investment Company that developed towns along the new tracks. In a move that feels fitting for a moving company to tell, the founders hired J.J. Barton to haul roughly ten buildings over from the fading town of Bartonsite — including a two-story yellow hotel, a lumberyard, and a blacksmith shop. By 1914 the young town had around 300 people, four churches, several stores, and a bank.

Cotton and Grain Country

From the start, Abernathy’s economy grew out of the dirt around it. The town incorporated in 1924, and by 1926 it counted about forty-five businesses and 1,500 people and was known across the region as a cotton and grain center. The Plains Grain Company elevator has served area farmers since 1920 and still marks the skyline today, and cotton gins along the interstate keep working every harvest. The old Santa Fe line that created the town now runs as BNSF Railway, still hauling the region’s crops the way it has for over a century.

Community Spirit

Ask anyone in town and they’ll tell you: in Abernathy, you’re an Antelope. Abernathy ISD covers 179 square miles across Hale and Lubbock counties, with an elementary, middle, and high school serving a little over 800 students, and on fall Fridays the whole town points toward Antelope Stadium on Avenue H. Downtown, the historic Struve mercantile buildings line Main Street, where a Jamboree street festival brings folks out on second Saturdays. It’s the kind of place where the school, the churches, and Main Street still hold everything together.

Modern Abernathy

Today Abernathy is home to about 2,865 people, sitting right on the Hale–Lubbock county line with roughly a quarter of the city on the Lubbock County side. At 3,360 feet up on the flat South Plains, it offers what a lot of families are looking for: a real small town with its own schools and Main Street, just eighteen miles up I-27 from Lubbock’s jobs, hospitals, and Texas Tech. That easy commute has made Abernathy a steady choice for people who want room to breathe without being far from anything. Farms and gins still anchor the economy, but plenty of front doors here belong to folks who drive south every morning.

Abernathy, Texas 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 Abernathy?

We sure do — Abernathy is one of the closest towns we serve, just 18 miles straight up I-27 from Lubbock, about a twenty-minute drive. Our crews take the FM 597 exit into town regularly, so an Abernathy job runs on the same schedule as a move inside Lubbock city limits.

Day to day, that means the crew loads the truck at our Lubbock base in the morning and is at your door in Abernathy before the coffee’s cold. We’ve worked the South Plains for over 15 years, and towns along the I-27 corridor like Abernathy have always been part of our home territory.

Does the drive from Lubbock cost me extra or slow my move down?

No — Abernathy is close enough that the drive up I-27/US 87 barely registers, and any travel is already built into the free written estimate we give you before we book anything. The quote you sign is the full picture, with no hidden fees and nothing tacked on after the truck rolls.

Because it’s such a short, easy interstate run, Abernathy moves don’t wait in a special queue either. We can often schedule same-week, and sometimes same-day if a slot opens up. For far-flung Texas cities hundreds of miles out we run scheduled flat-rate long-distance service, but Abernathy is a quick local trip for us.

How far ahead do I need to book a move in Abernathy?

The honest answer: as early as you can, especially around the end of the month, summer, and the weeks when leases turn over in Lubbock. That said, because Abernathy is only about twenty minutes up I-27 from our crews, we can often fit you in the same week you call, and same-day service is sometimes possible when the schedule breaks right.

Either way, the first step is the same — call (806) 300-7394, tell us what you’re moving and when, and we’ll get you a free written estimate and lock in your date. If your closing date or lease slips, just tell us and we’ll work with you on the schedule.

I'm moving between Abernathy and Lubbock — is that an easy move for you?

It’s one of the most common moves we do. Plenty of folks trade Lubbock for Abernathy’s small-town pace, and plenty of Abernathy kids head south for Texas Tech or a first apartment, so our trucks know that 18-mile stretch of I-27 by heart. With such a short haul, nearly every Abernathy–Lubbock move loads and delivers the same day.

Because we’re based in Lubbock and work Abernathy all the time, we know both ends of the trip — the neighborhoods and apartment complexes across Lubbock, and the streets off Avenue D and 1st Street in Abernathy, on both the Hale County and Lubbock County sides of town. One crew, one truck, one written quote covering the whole job.

Can you move me from Abernathy to another city in Texas?

Yes — we run flat-rate long-distance moves from Abernathy to anywhere in Texas, whether that’s Amarillo up the interstate, Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio, or Houston. Long-distance jobs are scheduled runs rather than same-day hops, but the crew that loads you in Abernathy is the crew that delivers you at the other end.

You get one written flat-rate quote up front that covers the whole trip, with no mileage surprises and no hidden fees. We carry statewide and federal operating authority (TXDMV #009155382C, USDOT #3426928), so your belongings are covered from your driveway on the South Plains to your new front door.

Are you actually licensed and insured for moves in Abernathy?

Yes, fully. Lubbock Moving Company operates under TXDMV license #009155382C and USDOT #3426928, which means we hold both Texas statewide authority and federal authority — you can look both numbers up yourself before you book. That matters in a small town like Abernathy, where an uninsured guy with a trailer can sound tempting until something goes wrong.

Being licensed and insured means your household goods are protected on the truck, our crews are accountable, and there’s a real company behind the written estimate you sign. If you ever want to see the paperwork, just ask — we’re glad to show it.

Do your crews know their way around Abernathy?

They do — after 15+ years on the South Plains, Abernathy is familiar ground. Our drivers come off I-27 at the FM 597/1st Street exit, know the grid of lettered avenues through town, and have loaded plenty of houses near Antelope Stadium on Avenue H and along the blocks around Main Street and Avenue D downtown.

We also know the quirks that matter on moving day, like the fact that Abernathy straddles the Hale–Lubbock county line, and that harvest season means gin and grain traffic along the interstate frontage. Knowing the town means the truck shows up at the right door at the right time, positioned to make the load-out easy.

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

Full-service means our crew brings the truck, furniture pads, dollies, straps, and shrink wrap, then handles the loading, hauling, and unloading — and if you want, we’ll do the packing and unpacking too. We handle residential and commercial moves, long-distance flat-rate moves anywhere in Texas, and labor-only help if you’ve already got a truck or a storage unit to load.

Getting a quote is simple: call (806) 300-7394, tell us about your place in Abernathy and where you’re headed, and we’ll put together a free written estimate with everything spelled out up front. We take cash and all major credit cards, and same-week scheduling is often available.
