Flint, Texas is a tight-knit community in Smith County just south of Tyler — and it’s growing fast. New homes, expanding neighborhoods, and a community that values quality and reliability. When residents here plan a move, they want a company that matches that standard.
That’s Thompson Discount Movers. We’ve been serving East Texas families since 1965, and we bring that same reliability to Flint and the surrounding area. We’re based out of Palestine, TX, and our crews regularly work throughout Smith County — so we know the neighborhoods, the roads, and the access quirks that come with different parts of this region.
Our owners, Daniel and Kati Thomas, run the company with the same values that built Thompson Discount Movers into a trusted name: show up when you say you will, handle things carefully, and be straight with customers from the first phone call to the last box placed. That’s it. That’s the whole philosophy.
Flint's Go-To Moving Company
Full-Service Moving in Flint, TX
Residential Home Moving
We plan your move around your home’s specific layout and any access challenges — narrow driveways, steep driveways, long hauls from the door to the truck, multi-story homes. Floors and doorways are protected before we start, every piece of furniture is wrapped, and we place items where you want them at the destination.
Apartment and Student Moving
Flint residents heading to or from apartment complexes, townhomes, or student housing near Tyler get a move that’s efficient and damage-free. We’re experienced with elevator coordination, loading docks, and the tight staircases common in apartment buildings.
Packing and Unpacking Services
From full-service packing to fragile-only protection, we handle it all. Dresser drawers get shrink-wrapped so contents stay in place. China and glassware are individually wrapped and boxed with proper cushioning. Boxes are labeled clearly by room so unloading is fast and organized. We also offer full unpacking services at the destination.
Commercial and Office Moving
We minimize disruption for businesses. Weekend and evening scheduling is available, and we build organized pack plans that keep your inventory, files, and equipment trackable from pickup to delivery.
Loading and Unloading Help
Need help loading a rental truck or portable container? Need heavy furniture rearranged inside your home without a full move? We offer standalone loading/unloading and rearranging services.
Special-Care Item Moving
Pianos, antiques, large safes, oversized furniture, and fragile artwork need specialized moving techniques. Our crew is trained and equipped for items that require extra attention.
