Owner-Operated, Nine Employees: Dallas Movers Since 2015

Five trucks work out of one yard on Westmoreland Road, and nine names cover the whole operation. Ring the office and you get Priscilla; ask about a bigger job and Garrett Quinn Sabatino gets pulled into the call himself, whether you’re a few streets over or clear on the far side of South Dallas and the Best Southwest cities.

This goes straight to Priscilla’s desk, not a shared inbox somebody checks once a day. She uses it for exactly one thing: pricing your Dallas move.

Garrett Quinn Sabatino spent six years running crews for a regional van line out of Fort Worth before he’d had enough of the pricing games — the low quote on the phone that turned into a different number once the truck was loaded and the customer had no real option left. Former customers kept calling him directly, asking him to handle their next move off the books, because they trusted him more than the company whose logo was on the truck. In 2015 he put his own initials on the door instead: GQS Movers, one standard, quote it once, quote it straight, and the number doesn’t move on move day.

Eleven years later that standard hasn’t changed, even though the company around it has grown. GQS Movers now runs five trucks and nine people out of our office at 2915 S Westmoreland Rd in Dallas — no subcontractors, no day-labor rentals off a hiring app the morning of your move. Priscilla Nguyen has run the office since 2017 and keeps the schedule straight. Dominic Alvarado has handled estimates and dispatch since 2019, and he’s usually the one who walks you through your quote. Crew chiefs Wesley Broussard and Ariana Mott lead the two teams that actually load and drive the trucks.

We’re a real, licensed Texas moving company — not a service that farms your information out to whichever carrier bids lowest. Garrett still reviews the schedule every morning and still rides along on the occasional job, mostly because he likes to see for himself that the standard he set in 2015 is the one his crews are still running on.

How It Actually Started

Six Years Running Someone Else’s Trucks Before Garrett Ran His Own

Garrett Sabatino dispatched trucks for a regional van line out of Fort Worth for six years, and the thing that finally pushed him out the door was a $640 estimate that turned into $980 on move-out morning, with nobody at that company willing to explain the jump to the family standing in their own empty living room. He walked in 2015, put his savings into a single used box truck, and drew a hard line he still holds to today: whoever knocks on your door already trained under him, months before your move date, never a stranger handed a dolly for the first time that morning.

Every Name On This Page Draws A GQS Paycheck

Garrett, Priscilla, Dominic, Wesley, and Ariana run this company day to day, and every one of our nine people is on our own payroll. Nobody gets brought in for a busy Saturday from a gig app, and nobody shows up who wasn’t trained by us.

Long-Distance Doesn’t Mean A Different Standard

Garrett quoted long-distance jobs for years before he ever ran his own truck, and Ariana handles most of ours now — a run to Houston or Nashville gets the same binding paperwork and the same one-crew-door-to-door rule as a job across town.

We Price The Job We Can See, Not The One We Imagine

A flat number based on a phone description alone tends to be wrong in one direction or the other. That’s why Garrett or Dominic asks for a video walk-through of tight driveways and stairwells before anything gets locked in, so the figure on your quote and the figure on your invoice are the same one.

Nine People, Not A Growing Franchise

Growing past this size would mean somebody else answering the phone under the GQS name — a manager Garrett never trained himself, quoting jobs his own way. That trade-off is the reason the company has stayed exactly this size since it opened.

The Rating Doesn’t Change Much

Some folks post on Google right after the truck pulls away, some do it a week later on Yelp once they’ve unpacked — the number lands about the same place no matter which app they happened to open.

Garrett And Dominic Answer Their Own Phone

There’s no front desk routing your call somewhere else — whoever answers already has your file pulled up. Most quotes go out the same day they come in.
