Kansas City to Dallas Movers — Flat-Rate Long Distance
Moving from Kansas City to Dallas? Show Me Movers handles the whole move door to door — about 500 miles south on I-35 — with our own crew and our own truck, at a flat rate quoted up front. No brokers, no handoff to a line-haul carrier, and no strangers meeting your belongings on the other end. The same crew that loads your home in Kansas City is the crew that unloads it in Dallas.
How our Kansas City to Dallas moves work
Our long-distance moves are quoted at a flat rate after a walkthrough — in person or a quick virtual tour of your home — so the price you’re given is the price you pay, based on your actual inventory rather than an hourly clock ticking across the drive. Dallas is a straight run south down I-35, roughly seven and a half hours of driving, so most Kansas City to Dallas moves are handled in a single long day, loaded in the morning and delivered that evening.
Why so many people are making this move
Texas is one of the most common destinations for people leaving the Kansas City area right now, and Dallas–Fort Worth is the biggest draw in the state — jobs, no state income tax, and a metro that’s grown fast enough to have room for newcomers. It’s a route we run often, not a special trip.
Settling into Dallas–Fort Worth
DFW is really several cities stitched together — Dallas proper, Fort Worth, and a ring of suburbs like Plano, Frisco, Arlington, and Irving that each have their own identity. Traffic and distance matter more here than in Kansas City; where you land in the metro can add real time to your commute, so it’s worth having an address locked in before moving day rather than figuring it out after. Wherever in DFW you’re headed, we’ll get your things there safely and get you unloaded so you can start exploring the new city.
What’s included
Your move can be as hands-on or hands-off as you want:
- Packing & unpacking — we bring the boxes, paper, and tape and label everything by room, or pack just the fragile things and leave the rest to you.
- Disassembly & reassembly — beds, tables, and anything else that has to come apart to travel safely goes back together at the new place.
- Furniture protection — padded, wrapped, and secured for the highway, not just carried across a room.
- Storage — if your closing or lease dates in Kansas City and Dallas don’t line up, ask us about holding your belongings in between.

Kansas City to Dallas moving FAQ
How much does a move from Kansas City to Dallas cost?
It’s quoted at a flat rate after we’ve seen your home and listed the inventory, so the number depends mostly on how much you’re moving and what needs special handling — not on how long the drive takes. Once you have the quote, that’s the price, with no day-of surprises. Call (816) 560-1174 or request a quote online to get yours.
How long does the move take?
Dallas is about 500 miles south on I-35, roughly seven and a half hours of driving, so most moves are handled in a single long day — loaded in the morning, delivered that evening.
Is the same crew there at both ends?
Yes. The crew that loads your home in Kansas City drives it and unloads it in Dallas. We don’t hand your move off to a separate long-distance carrier, so the same people are responsible for your belongings from door to door.
Which part of DFW should I move to?
That depends on your commute and budget more than anything we can tell you from Kansas City — Plano and Frisco lean newer and family-oriented, Fort Worth has more of an established, walkable core, and the suburbs closer to DFW airport cut down on drive time if you fly often. Wherever you land, we’ll get you there.
