Had multiple large glass table tops I needed moved and was worried about doing it myself so I spoke with Joe Jr and he laid out a plan to get them... there safely. Eddie, Ronald and Derrick showed up and took care of the glass tops along with my other furniture with ease. Showed up on time, worked efficiently, and were very communicative. It was something I was so stressed about but it ended up being such a breeze. Would call Joe Jr and Cousins again in a heartbeat.read more

From Clem, the owner, to every man in the crew, the team was tops, delivering on every thing that was promised. They had the best price, did an... excellent packing job, and moved us out-and-in in the anticipated time frame. Heaven knows moving is stressful but Cousins eliminated 99% of the related headaches. We’d give them 6 stars but it wasn’t an option.read more

I hired Cousins USA after a friend’s referral, we are better friends now because of it. They called to say they were on their way, showed up early,... introduce themselves with a smile and a handshake, assessed items being moved and went into team mode. They wrapped and taped everything from the smallest item to my triple dresser like it was their own furniture. The delivery of the furniture to the new house was amazing, every piece of furniture and box was in the exact place where it belonged. If I had to move again it would be an absolute no brainer Cousin’s USA, ALL DAY !!! I will be paying it forward and recommend Cousins USA to everyone.read more

PCS season arrived and we were assigned Cousins Moving Company to handle our goods. From the start Clement was amazing, always available to answer... questions and update our info as things came available. Demetris, Otis, Dave, and Johnney were the crew, and showed up ready to pack. They were respectful, clean, and worked great as a team. Poor Dave had the hardest/largest job packing my kitchen but did a fantastic job! Anyone would be lucky to have this team care for their HHG!read more

I'm giving Cousins a 4 instead of a 5 this year. Mr. Eddie was the leadman with Mr. Robinson and Jean. They were an hour late meeting me at the Extra... Space Storage. Mr. Eddie explained to me that he was not aware that he was supposed to be there at 8:00 am. However, once they got going, they worked efficiently and packed everything professionally. I had to end up helping them move the light things because it was necessary. They wrapped what needed to be wrapped with blankets that Penske provided. The crew shrink wrapped all of the items that were not wrapped with a blanket. I believe for three people, they worked as fast as they could. I had to end up helping them because it was necessary in order to help minimize the time. The person who took my original order misjudged how long it would take even though I explained to him everything that I had to have loaded onto my Penske moving truck. I should have had either 4 guys like I had the last time or set it for 5 hours. I have no problem paying or 5 hours had I known it would take that long when I first placed my order. Finding out you are going to be $180 over your budget the day of is not a happy feeling. I want to add that Mr. Eddie is a true professional. He works with a perfection mentality and he was careful with handling my furniture. The guys helping him followed his instructions and there was no issues between the three of them. Would I use Cousin's again if I ever needed to...the answer is yes, but they need to do a better job of calculating the entire job's overall price based on the logistics provided to them.read more

How Do Florida and Texas Compare?

It can be hard to know what to expect when moving to a new state. We want to make it easy for you, so we put together some of the key comparisons between Florida and Texas. Here’s some of what’s different and some of what’s the same:

  • State Income Taxes: There isn’t any in Texas. As a Floridian, you may be hesitant to move to a state that has an income tax after being used to not having any. With Texas, you can continue to live without any state income tax.
  • A Growing State: Texas is booming! Their population is constantly growing, making it home to four of the ten fastest growing cities in the United States.
  • Tech Industry: Texas is becoming a hub for the tech industry. Austin has been the biggest city for this, as it’s now home to companies such as Dell and Advanced Micro Devices, and soon Apple and Tesla.
  • Cost of Living: According to My Life Elsewhere, the overall cost of living in Florida is
  •  9.7% higher than in Texas. This takes into account the costs for restaurants, transportation, groceries, and more.

These are just a few of the different of the important things to keep in mind when moving from Florida to Texas. These states are unique, so make sure you’re prepared for everything Texas offers.

Planning Your Long-Distance Move

Moving is complex. Moving to a different state is even more complex. There’s a lot to do, so here are some of the important tasks that need to be done to get you on the right path. When moving to Texas from Florida, make sure you handle these five steps:

  1. Sort out which items you want to move and which items you will donate, sell, or throw out. Less items means a simpler and cheaper move.
  2. With a move halfway across the country, it’s possible that your bank won’t have a branch there. Look to see if you need to set up an account elsewhere.
  3. Make plans for utilities sooner rather than later. Different utility companies have different rules about how far in advance you have to set up and turn off your utilities.
  4. If you have any pets speak to your vet. They’ll be able to give your pets the care and you the advice that is needed to make the move easy for them.
  5. Obtain appraisals and receipts for any high-value items that you will be moving.

For a more detailed walkthrough of the moving process, check out our Moving Guide, which will walk you through all that you need to do and when you should do it.

What You’ll Find In Texas

Texas is a unique state. There’s a lot to do. We want to make sure that you don’t lose sight of the most exciting aspect of moving: Exploring your new home! To keep this in sight, we put together some of the best things to do in Texas, ranging from exploring beautiful nature to discovering fascinating history to experiencing exciting entertainment:

  • Nature: Across Texas you’ll find a wide-range of places to take in nature. You’ll find jaw-dropping locations such as the Natural Bridge Caverns, the Hamilton Pool Nature Preserve, and, of course, the free-flowing Rio Grande River.
  • History: In Texas you’ll find the Alamo, the most well-known Spanish mission and the setting for the most famous battle in the Texas Revolution. Along with the Alamo, you’ll find a number of historical museums scattered throughout Texas, from the African American Museum to LBJ’s Presidential Library.
  • Entertainment: Texas is home to some of the biggest cities in America and with that comes entertainment. While you’re in Texas you can attend festivals such as South By Southwest and Austin City Limits, visit the original Six Flags location, or see any of the 13 professional sports teams.

This is just a fraction of the excitement that awaits you in your new home state. By exploring these places, you’ll be able to scratch the surface of what awaits you in Texas.
