Moving out of Fort Worth, Texas

Fort Worth is the largest city in this part of North Texas, with 918,915 residents in the 2020 Census. It is the seat of Tarrant County and reaches into Denton, Johnson, Parker and Wise counties as well. Four interstates serve it: I-35W runs north toward Oklahoma and south toward Austin, I-30 and I-20 head east and west, and Loop 820 circles the city, with U.S. 287 and U.S. 377 adding more routes out. That matters for a long-distance move, because the right exit route depends on where in the city you start, from Downtown and Sundance Square to the Stockyards, Tanglewood or the Upper West Side. Fort Worth ISD serves most of the city, but more than a dozen other districts cover its edges, including Keller, Northwest and Crowley. Fort Worth code bars oversized commercial vehicles of 15,000 pounds or more from parking on residential streets unless they are actively being loaded or unloaded, so a large moving truck works on a tight schedule. Green Van Lines, founded in 2007 as the first eco-friendly moving company in the US, runs long-distance moves out of DFW, including Fort Worth.
