All the companies are local companies since this is an in-state move (heaven only knows why Texas is so big). They are all insured and have the proper legal things under control should something happen to my furniture and they all come highly recommended by others on the internet and from people I know. My dad suggested I go with the low bid... especially since the high bid is not in my budget (and it's $1000 more than what my brother paid to move to Wisconsin from Houston with the same amount of stuff).

Thanks for the advice for sure... seems to confirm what I already know. Hopefully the end result will not be horrible!
