Timing
When to Ship Texas to West Virginia
Mountain weather and narrow hollows set the timing.
Dallas and Houston Traffic
Rush hour on I-35E, I-45, I-610, and the Beltway can add hours to a pickup. Drivers time their run around it.
North Texas Ice
Ice storms around Dallas and the Panhandle a few times each winter can close roads for a day.
Mountain Snow
From December through March, snow on I-64, I-77, and I-79 through the mountains can slow deliveries a day.
WVU Game Days
Morgantown is packed on Mountaineer home Saturdays. Weekday delivery is easier.
