Omaha to Lincoln Movers | Tetris Moving

Omaha down to Lincoln: 60 miles straight down I-80, one crew start to finish and a flat rate agreed first, usually a one-day run.

Lincoln is the shortest long-distance run on our board, about 60 miles straight down I-80 from our yard off South 135th Street near Millard. A lot of these jobs are a whole household on the move: an Elkhorn family taking over a place near the Haymarket, a Dundee couple landing in a Lincoln neighborhood off O Street, or a corporate transfer leaving an Omaha headquarters for a state-government or university job in the capital. Whatever the move, Tetris Moving runs it on one truck with the same crew start to finish, so the people who carry boxes out of your Omaha home are the people who set the couch down in Lincoln.

The drive is barely an hour of open interstate, which means most of these go in a single day: load in the morning, unload by afternoon. Megan built the crews to pack a truck like a puzzle, fitting a full home into as few loads as possible, so a Dundee Tudor with a narrow alley and a detached garage, an Old Market loft on a freight elevator, or a far-west two-story with HOA parking rules are all sorted before the truck pulls up. We are a licensed and insured mover, operating across Nebraska and western Iowa, with US DOT and MC authority and $1M in cargo coverage, and we are a full-service general mover: households, apartments, offices, packing, and storage. We never hand the job to a broker or subcontract the carry. Get an Omaha to Lincoln moving quote, or see how our long-distance moving service runs this short lane.

You get a flat rate you approve before the truck rolls, not a meter running while you watch the mile markers tick by. Tell us the home sizes and the access at both ends, and that figure holds from your room in Omaha to the room in Lincoln. Because the crew loads efficiently and fits more per trip, this short hop usually takes less truck and fewer runs, and that keeps the rate down.

“It was a great service with fairly clear pricing. The only reason I gave a 4 was because we pay before they actually finish the delivery. So I felt the guys did a less after payment with all boxes left in the garage instead of moving them up to the rooms upstairs. They did break one item so I am hoping the insurance works…”

“The movers came to my house and packed up. Brett and the two guys were great to work with. When my stuff was ready to be delivered the driver was very friendly and considerate. The two men from the local company that unloaded went above and beyond to help me get my refrigerator in the house. I am very grateful for their service and efforts. I would recommend them for a move.”

Route FAQ

How long does the move to Lincoln take?

It is the shortest long-distance lane we run, about 60 miles down I-80, roughly an hour behind the wheel. Most Lincoln jobs go in a single day: we load your Omaha home in the morning and have you set up in the capital by that afternoon.

Is the Lincoln price fixed before you arrive?

It is. The price is one flat figure drawn from the size of each home and how both ends open up, not a clock ticking by the hour down I-80 to Lincoln. As soon as the stairs, the carry, and any parking or elevator policy are confirmed, that number is your bill. The single thing that could shift it is an access snag the survey didn't turn up.

Does another company finish the move in Lincoln?

Never. We are a licensed mover with our own trucks and our own W-2 crews, holding US DOT and MC authority and $1M in cargo coverage. The same crew that loads your Omaha home unloads it in Lincoln. No handoff, no broker, no outside hauler touches your things.

Can you handle a Dundee home with a narrow alley and no driveway out front?

That is routine for our crews. We plan the carry on a tight near-midtown block, work the alley to the detached garage, and handle a Lincoln building's elevator or parking rules at the far end. Tell us the address and we map the access first, then load like a puzzle so it fits in one trip.
