Our Roots in Hale Center, Texas

Why we love Hale Center, Texas

We’ve hauled a lot of furniture up and down I-27, and Hale Center is one of those towns that sticks with you. The downtown murals tell the town’s story right on the brick — farmers at work, buffalo hunts, homesteaders in covered wagons — and the Hale County Farm and Ranch Museum keeps that heritage alive in a restored 1911 Santa Fe Depot beside the interstate. Friday nights belong to the Hale Center Owls, the grain elevators still mark the skyline the way they have for generations, and Bell Park’s cactus garden is the kind of quirky local treasure you only find in a town that takes pride in itself.

To appreciate Hale Center, it helps to know the history that shaped it — a story of two rival towns that joined forces, a railroad that saved the community, and cotton fields that built everything that came after.

Early Settlement

Hale Center began as two rival communities, Hale City and Epworth, both founded in 1891 on the high plains of the Llano Estacado. In 1893 the towns merged, moving homes and buildings to a common location near the center of Hale County — which is exactly how the new town got its name. The early years were rough: failed railroad prospects and a long drought left only a couple of businesses and a single residence standing by 1898. The town came back to life in 1909 when the Santa Fe Railroad finally arrived, and Hale Center never looked back.

Cotton Country Roots

Like most of the South Plains, Hale County started as ranch country and turned to farming as settlers broke out the land. Cotton took off in the 1920s — county acreage exploded from under a hundred acres in 1910 to nearly 65,000 by 1929 — and irrigation development after World War II cemented cotton as the leading cash crop, alongside grain sorghum, corn, and wheat. The gins and grain elevators that rose along the rail line still define Hale Center’s skyline today. That farming heritage is preserved at the Hale County Farm and Ranch Museum on I-27, where restored antique tractors and the old 1911 Santa Fe Depot tell the story of how this town was built.

Community Spirit

Hale Center’s toughness showed most clearly on June 2, 1965, when a tornado tore through downtown, destroying twenty-nine businesses along with city hall and the fire station, and taking five lives. The town rebuilt, and that resilience is part of its character to this day. Community life centers on the Hale Center Owls of Hale Center ISD — complete with their mascot, Hootie — and the whole town shows up when the Owls take the field. Downtown murals depicting the area’s history, from Coronado’s expedition to homesteaders in covered wagons, keep the town’s story in plain view.

Modern Hale Center

Today Hale Center is home to a little over 2,000 people, sitting at the intersection of Interstate 27 and FM 1914, eleven miles southwest of Plainview and an easy drive north of Lubbock. It remains a working agricultural town, with cotton fields stretching to the horizon in every direction and grain trucks rolling through during harvest. For folks who want small-town quiet with a straight interstate shot to jobs in Lubbock or Plainview, Hale Center makes a lot of sense. It’s the kind of place where neighbors still know each other by name — and where a moving crew gets waved at from front porches.

Hale Center, 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 actually serve Hale Center?

We do, and we have for years. Hale Center sits right on Interstate 27 about 35 miles north of our Lubbock base, and towns along that corridor — Abernathy, Hale Center, Plainview — have always been part of our regular service area on the South Plains. Day to day, it works simply: our crew loads up in Lubbock in the morning, heads north on I-27, takes the FM 1914 exit, and is at your door ready to work. You get the same crew, same equipment, and same free written estimate as any customer in Lubbock proper.

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

No — the trip up I-27 to Hale Center is a routine run for us, not a special expedition, and it’s one of the easiest drives in West Texas: flat, straight interstate the whole way, with Abernathy as the halfway marker. Your free written estimate is put together up front and covers everything, including travel, so there are no hidden fees and nothing tacked on later.

For much longer moves — the kind that run a couple hundred miles or more across Texas — we handle those as scheduled flat-rate long-distance jobs rather than same-day local runs. But Hale Center is close enough that we treat it just like a local move.

How far ahead do I need to book? I might need movers on short notice.

The more notice you can give us, the more choice you’ll have on dates, and weekends at the start and end of the month fill up first — that’s true everywhere on the South Plains. That said, we can often take Hale Center jobs the same week you call, and sometimes even the same day if a crew is free, since you’re a quick shot up I-27 from our home base. Closings move, leases end abruptly, and farm life doesn’t always follow a calendar, so don’t assume it’s too late to call. Ring (806) 300-7394, tell us your situation, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can do.

I'm moving between Hale Center and Lubbock — how does that work?

That’s one of the most common moves we run, in both directions — families coming up for the quiet and the land, and folks heading down to Lubbock for work or school. It’s about 35 miles door to door on I-27, so in most cases we load in the morning, make the drive, and have you unloaded in your new place the same day. The crew brings the truck, pads, dollies, straps, and shrink wrap, and if you want us to pack, we can handle that too. One written quote covers the whole job from first box to last.

Can you handle a long-distance move from Hale Center to somewhere else in Texas?

Yes — we run flat-rate long-distance moves from Hale Center to anywhere in Texas, whether that’s the Metroplex, Austin, Houston, San Antonio, or another Panhandle town. Flat-rate means your written quote is a single, agreed number before the truck rolls, so the miles between here and there don’t turn into surprises on moving day. From Hale Center, most long hauls start the same way: straight down I-27 to Lubbock, then out on US-84, US-87, or the interstate system depending on where you’re headed. We hold both statewide and federal operating authority, so crossing the state legally and properly insured is exactly what we’re set up to do.

Are you actually licensed and insured to move me out of Hale Center?

We are, and you’re right to ask — plenty of folks with a pickup and a trailer will offer to move you, but they leave you holding the risk. Lubbock Moving Company is licensed with the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles under TXDMV #009155382C and holds federal authority under USDOT #3426928, which covers moves anywhere in Texas and beyond. That means your belongings are protected by real insurance from the moment we load in Hale Center to the moment we set the last box down. You can verify both numbers yourself through the TXDMV and FMCSA websites — we’d encourage it.

Do your crews really know their way around Hale Center?

They do — after 15-plus years working the I-27 corridor, Hale Center isn’t new territory to us. Our crews know the downtown grid around Main Street, where City Hall and the murals sit, and the older homes on those blocks with their narrow drives and mature trees that take a little care with a 26-foot truck. We know the FM 1914 exit off the interstate, the frontage along I-27 by the Farm and Ranch Museum, and the farm roads outside town where a long dirt drive means planning where the truck parks before we ever arrive. Knowing a town ahead of time means less time figuring things out on your dime and more time actually moving you.

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

Full-service means we bring everything and handle everything: the truck, furniture pads, dollies, straps, and shrink wrap, plus the crew to pack your boxes, load, drive, unload, and unpack at the other end if you want. We handle homes, businesses, and everything in between, and if you only need muscle — say you’ve rented your own truck — we offer labor-only help too.

Getting a quote is simple: call us at (806) 300-7394, tell us what you’re moving and where, and we’ll put together a free written estimate with no obligation and no hidden fees. We take cash and all major credit cards, so paying is as straightforward as the quote.
