What changes between submarkets
The single biggest variable in a commercial move quote is not distance. It is what stands between the truck and the suite.
| Submarket | Drive time | Typical buildings | Access note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Downtown Houston | 22 minutes | Towers of 30 to 75 floors, most with two freight cars | Freight elevator windows are typically 6:00 pm to 6:00 am on weeknights and all day Saturday |
| Energy Corridor | 28 minutes | Mostly two to twelve storeys in landscaped campuses | Surface-level docks at most buildings, with truck parking beside the door |
| Galleria and Uptown | 18 minutes | Office towers of 15 to 50 floors, many above retail | Shared docks with retail and restaurant deliveries, so dock slots are booked by the hour |
| The Woodlands | 42 minutes | Low and mid-rise buildings in mixed-use villages | Generous surface docks but long internal carries, often 150 to 300 ft from bay to suite |
| Sugar Land | 35 minutes | Two to eight storeys, many with ground-floor suites | Drive-up and ground-floor access at most buildings, which removes elevator scheduling entirely |
| Clear Lake and Bay Area | 45 minutes | Low-rise office and office-flex with attached warehouse bays | Office-flex buildings with roll-up doors and grade-level access to the warehouse side |
Drive times are portal to portal, which is exactly how local hourly work is billed.
