Frequently Asked Questions
Moving’s hard enough without dealing with unexpected costs, delays, and mishaps. Check out our FAQs for upfront answers to your most commonly-asked questions!
Cost of Service
How much will the move cost?
Our team conducts a virtual or in-person home survey to deliver the service details and final pricing.
Here are some price factors that may impact the final price:
- Third-party services
- Size of home
- Miles being traveled
- Storage needs
Can I get a ballpark cost?
Yes! Contact your branch for the most accurate ballpark figure. You must do a virtual survey after the estimate of your move to confirm a specific price.
Price examples:
San Antonio Local Rates
1Br $414.00 - 2Br $798.00 - 3Br $1,182.00 - 1 van, 3 men
El Paso Local Rates
1BR $420.00, 2BR $700.00, 3BR $980.00, 4plus $1,400.00
Will a move be quoted based on the per hour rate?
Each move is evaluated individually and priced based on the needs of the move. Only local moves are priced hourly. Reach out to your local branch for detailed hourly rates.
Moving Schedules
How soon will I need to make a decision in order to secure my dates?
We recommend scheduling your move one month in advance. On average, we need at least 7-14 business days to schedule a move. During peak seasons, you’ll need to schedule more than 14 days in advance to secure your preferred date.
How long will the process take?
Each move is unique and the timing will depend on what is included in your service package. You can expect the process to take anywhere from 5-10 days.
Factors that may impact the timeline include things like load size, delivery window, and whether it’s a local, intra, or interstate move.
Process and Procedures
Why is there a delivery window?
We give you a delivery window to help set the most accurate, reasonable expectations. The delivery window is created based on the weight of the shipment and how many miles it's being delivered.
Here are some factors that may impact the delivery window:
- An extra day for weekends and holidays
- Inclement weather
- Driver getting sick, truck breaking down, etc.
These issues are very far and few between. We work our hardest to make sure your belongings are delivered on time. If anything delays the delivery window, the Coordinator will keep you updated.
What will happen if I cannot get into my home before the movers arrive to deliver?
We never deliver the same day as closing on a new house to avoid this problem as much as possible. This is because many unexpected factors can delay the closing. Scobey does offer storage if you need a safe space to store your belongings until closing.

I have had 20 years in the Military & have never I say never had....better movers than Team Scobey from San Antonio.... They made the transition seamless. They were curtious, kind, and professional. They took time to not only do a great job but to connect with my family and I on a personal level. This to me is top notch customer service. I hate moving and value customer service to the fullest. Team Scobey from San Antonio hit the mark for my family and I. Thank you so very much.read more

The crew at Scobey Moving was absolutely amazing. From the scheduler, who called everyday to let me know the status of... the crew. The the packers (Brenda, Karina, Heather and Jackie) were top notch packing my entire house in two days. And the movers/haulers (Andrew, Aaron, Eric, Rick and Regina) loaded our 4 bedroom house seamlessly.
Being in the military for 18 years, I have moved more times, in more countries than I can count... These ladies and gentlemen were hands down the BEST we have ever dealt with. Thank you!read more

Great packing by Bernice, Karina, Jackie, and Michelle on 6.23.20! They packed our belongings carefully and quickly. ... The Pick-up Team led by Leo did an awesome job, Leo called ahead of their arrival to ensure they had all the packing supplies they would need to load our items into the crates. They protected the doorways and were very careful not to damage our home. They were very efficient in loading the crates to ensure our belongings didn't get caught in the expected rain. Multiple times this week I have said, "I love me Scobey!" The customer service is great!read more

We were very pleased! Very professional. Once Scobey was assigned to pack up my household goods they have been... excellent. Within 24 hours of the government transportation office informing us that Scobey would be our service provider, Scobey contacted us and explained in detail what to expect and when to expect it. On the day of the pack out, Angelica, Desiree and Destiny called me when they were 25 minutes out. They showed up on time. They were super respectful of our home and they worked tirelessly. It was quite evident they were professionals. They performed a planned two day pack out in less the 8 hours. Very impressive. We felt our belongings were well packed. After they arrived we received one more called form the Scobey scheduler asking if the team arrived and if all was well. So I give Scobey high marks for being communicative.read more

The Scobey team of Art S., Cindy M., Louis O., Joe Z., and Orlando F. did a great job packing, loading, and moving our... house from San Antonio, TX to Austin, TX. They took special care of all our items, right down to the smallest details. They were very attentive to our requests and extremely efficient in completing the job. From start to finish they asked questioned about items, allowed us to make sure it met our standard for moving, and upon arrival at the new place they made sure all items were placed where we wanted them. It was great relief to have these individuals during a stressful time.read more

Worst moving experience ever. Poor communication between estimator/ coordinator, movers, and office staff. I had to... be responsible for communicating and coordinating between them. On the day of the move, the movers threatened us with extra charges for a delayed moving time, even though that had been pre-arranged. Movers did not have space for all items, even though I moved out a significant extra number of items myself after the estimate, and I had to ask a neighbor to store the items that wouldn't fit. The estimator claimed it was required to have mattress boxes to protect from bedbugs and charged me for them. Then the movers did not use mattress boxes and I did get bed bugs. The company offered to reimburse a minuscule amount (only the amount of the boxes not used) compared to the money and effort it took me to treat the bed bugs. Shameful customer service from them and I would never wish this kind of stressful moving experience on anyone.read more

Elizabeth, Angelica, Desiree, and Destiny did an amazing job. They were very careful and confirmed things that needed... to be packed if they didn't know. I loved how careful they were with our expensive items. I loved the fact that they were upfront and got right to work. Very hard workers for sure! With that being said there was another gentleman that came in to help pack about halfway into the day that was like a bull in a china closet. He packed up our closet, master bedroom and helped with a few other things. It seemed like he was in a rush, just throwing our things into boxes.No real rhyme or reason on his packing. And I had told him certain piles of stuff was not to be packed and he still packed some of them. It was frustrating because it was like he just wasn't paying attention. He dropped the TV from our master bedroom twice once he got it in the box, but before he could get the box shut. He dropped multiple mirrors after they were in the box but he would just look up and see if anyone was watching. It was a little disconcerting. Overall I think the packing process went really well but if you have anything nice that you don't want to be just thrown in a box I wouldn't recommend his help. The ladies did an amazing job on everything else though.read more

We were quoted a three-day packing job and the ladies working beautifully packaged our items in one day. We were able... to meet the moving truck when they delivered our items, so our things never went into storage. Of the items inside the boxes, nothing broke during the move. However, as much as they like to use the packing paper, we had one item that was wrapped in clothing inside a box (no packing paper) and the weight from the clothes broke while unpacking it. Overall, they did a thorough job and the item that broke can easily be replaced.
We had a couple of items that were slightly damaged from being inside the moving truck and not inside boxes.
As far as working with the movers they were very respectable and efficient with their time.
Overall, I think this was an above average experience. I would recommend this company.read more
