Dylan Marsh learned this trade backward. Years before he carried his first dresser, he was the guy on the dispatch board sending other DFW crews out across the metroplex, and on his days off he loaded their trucks. He had watched enough jobs go sideways to know what really decides a move, so in 2015 he put his own name on the door and built a flat crew that runs nothing but its gear. The surname is Marsh, the tagline winks a little, and the pitch is simple: we land your whole world in one piece. Most weeks our calendar is short hops inside the metro. A studio off Lower Greenville that becomes a starter house up in Plano. A Deep Ellum walk-up traded for a yard in Garland. A bungalow on the M Streets passed along for a quieter block in Lakewood. Our trucks belong to us and so do the people on them, all on W-2 payroll, which means the hands that ease your sofa into the new bedroom are the same ones that lifted it off the front step.
Rates run by the hour and we read them to you plainly. A two-person crew is $125/hr, a three-person crew $165/hr, and a four-person crew $215/hr. Every one of those figures already holds the truck, the pads, the hand trucks, and the wrap. Fuel does not turn up later as its own charge, and there is no surprise gear line waiting when we add the day up. Your written estimate goes out before a wheel rolls, so the crew is the only thing arriving at your address you were not already expecting.
How a Dallas move day actually runs
A smooth Dallas move comes down to planning the day in reverse, beginning from your dock window or your slice of curb and working backward. We start early on purpose. Once June arrives, the real opponent is the heat, and a North Texas afternoon parked at 100 degrees wears a crew down and bakes your furniture inside the box, so the heaviest pieces go first thing while the air is still bearable, a cooler rides along, and the tempo holds through the worst of it. An Uptown high-rise calls for a freight cab and a loading bay locked in early. A Bishop Arts loft up a tight stair gets scouted ahead of the date. Awkward access is the first thing we settle, since a difficult doorway burns far more time than the run up I-35E or over on I-30, and the minutes you are not paying for are the ones that keep the total honest.
