The corridor

The San Antonio & Hill Country → Omaha corridor

A move from San Antonio to Omaha covers roughly 880 miles up the middle of the country, and it starts the same way whether your keys are turned in at a downtown San Antonio condo, a ranch-style home in Boerne, or a hillside property outside Kerrville. Crews rolling out of the Texas Hill Country merge onto I-35 North and climb out of the Balcones Escarpment, trading limestone hills and live oaks for the Blackland Prairie as the route runs through Austin, Waco, and the sprawl of the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex. Because Boerne sits right on I-10 and Kerrville feeds down Highway 27, those shipments join the same I-35 spine at San Antonio — which is exactly why "Kerrville to Omaha" and "Boerne to Omaha" ride this identical corridor. One truck, one crew, no detour to a separate terminal to hand your things off.

North of the Metroplex the drive settles into the long open miles of the Great Plains, up through Oklahoma City and Wichita, across the tallgrass Flint Hills of eastern Kansas, then onto US-75 North near Topeka for the final push through Nebraska City and the Missouri River bluffs into Omaha. It's about thirteen to fourteen hours of windshield time, so we run it as a two-day haul with a planned delivery window rather than a rushed overnight. RiverHills keeps the entire move on our own truck with our own crew — the same people who load your home in the Hill Country are the ones who carry it up the stairs in Omaha. There's no interlining, no transferring your belongings onto a stranger's rig at a Dallas or Kansas City dock, which is where a long-distance move most often goes sideways.

Destination guide

About Omaha, NE

Omaha sits on the west bank of the Missouri River in Douglas County, facing Council Bluffs, Iowa, across "the Bob" — the Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge that lets you literally walk from Nebraska into Iowa. It surprises newcomers: a metro of nearly a million people that still feels navigable, with a revitalized riverfront in the Gene Leahy Mall and The RiverFront parks, the cobblestoned Old Market packed with restaurants and galleries, and distinct historic pockets like Dundee — Warren Buffett's longtime neighborhood — Benson's arts-and-music strip, the reborn Blackstone District, and the walkable Field Club and Aksarben Village areas. The Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium, Joslyn Art Museum, and the College World Series each June round out a city that carries far more culture than its footprint suggests.

For its size, Omaha punches well above its weight economically. It's headquarters to Berkshire Hathaway, Union Pacific Railroad, Mutual of Omaha, Kiewit, and Werner Enterprises, with major operations for First National Bank of Omaha, Physicians Mutual, Gallup, and the Charles Schwab (former TD Ameritrade) campus. The University of Nebraska Medical Center and Nebraska Medicine anchor a nationally ranked healthcare corridor, while Offutt Air Force Base in Bellevue — home to U.S. Strategic Command — makes Omaha a familiar landing spot for San Antonio's own large military community. Add Creighton University and the University of Nebraska Omaha, and the city keeps a steady pull for careers, students, and families alike.

On cost of living, San Antonians tend to find Omaha comfortably affordable, with home prices and everyday expenses landing near or a touch below the national average and short, low-stress commutes almost everywhere. Two honest differences to plan for: Nebraska levies a state income tax where Texas has none, and property taxes here run on the higher side — so the "cheaper Midwest" picture evens out somewhat once you factor those line items and winter heating bills into the budget.

Weather & timing for your Omaha move

Omaha has a true humid continental climate with four distinct seasons — a real adjustment for San Antonians used to mild, short winters. Winters are cold and snowy: December through February brings highs around or below freezing, lows into the teens and single digits, biting wind chill off the plains, and stretches of ice and snow on the roads. Summers turn hot and humid with frequent thunderstorms, and spring puts Omaha on the eastern edge of severe-weather season, so May and June can bring hail and tornado watches. Fall is the payoff — crisp, clear, and beautiful. The best windows for a move are late spring (May) and early fall (September–October), when temperatures are mild, storm risk is lower, and there's no ice on I-35 or US-75. Winter moves are absolutely doable, but our crew watches the forecast closely, and because our trucks are clean, padded, and blanket-wrapped rather than climate-controlled, we plan ahead for any cold-sensitive belongings.

Local know-how

Tips for a San Antonio → Omaha move

Plan for winter if you're moving November through March. San Antonians rarely keep real cold-weather gear on hand — pack a 'first week in Omaha' box with coats, boots, and gloves you can reach immediately, and let us monitor the I-35/US-75 forecast for ice before we roll.
Our trucks are clean, padded, and blanket-wrapped but not climate-controlled, so carry temperature-sensitive items — houseplants, candles, electronics, vinyl records, and certain medications — in your own vehicle across the two-day haul.
Handle the Nebraska paperwork early: the state requires a new driver's license and vehicle registration within about 30 days, and unlike Texas, Nebraska has a state income tax — worth flagging to your payroll department before your first check.
Book a delivery window, not a single delivery day. At 880 miles this is a two-day drive, so line up your Omaha closing or lease start with a little cushion, and ask us about storage-in-transit if the dates don't quite align.

I used Riverhills Moving twice for my long distance move to Arkansas. Jackson and his team are top-notch, friendly, polite, and really know how to pack the truck.

Frequently asked: San Antonio to Omaha

How far is San Antonio to Omaha, and how long does the move take? expand_more

It's about 880 miles by road — I-35 North through Austin, Waco, Dallas–Fort Worth, Oklahoma City, and Wichita, then US-75 North through eastern Kansas and Nebraska City into Omaha. That's roughly 13 to 14 hours of driving, which we run as a two-day haul with a scheduled delivery window rather than a rushed overnight run.

Is RiverHills licensed to move me from Texas to Nebraska? expand_more

Yes. Interstate household-goods moves require federal operating authority, and RiverHills carries USDOT 3561425 and MC-1196218 for interstate work, plus Texas intrastate authority TxDMV 009770506C. A Boerne, Kerrville, or San Antonio to Omaha move sits fully within our licensed authority.

What determines the estimate for a long-distance move like this? expand_more

The biggest factors are the weight and volume of your shipment, access at both ends (stairs, elevators, and how far the truck has to park from the door), any packing or specialty handling for items like pianos or large TVs, and the time of year. We provide a written estimate after reviewing your home rather than quoting a number over the phone.

Can you store my belongings if my Omaha closing gets delayed? expand_more

Yes. Closings and lease starts slip all the time on an 880-mile timeline, so we offer storage-in-transit — your goods stay safely with us, and we complete delivery to your Omaha address once you're ready, without bringing a second long-distance crew into the picture.
