Planning your Iowa to Texas move

Review the two ends of your move
| Location | Access to review |
|---|---|
| Iowa pickup | For an Iowa pickup, note any long driveway, detached building, or separate storage location. Include large workshop or outdoor items in the inventory so the team can discuss what can be transported and how it should be prepared. |
| Texas delivery | Texas destinations can involve very different delivery routes. Use the actual destination ZIP code rather than the nearest major city, and tell us about gated-community access, apartment loading areas, or a new-construction address that may be hard to locate. |
