- A town split by the Texas-New Mexico state line along Highway 28
- Pecan orchards and irrigated farmland on the older side of town
- Newer residential streets filling in on former field lots
- Bilingual service for a community that runs EN/ES both ways
One Town, One Highway, Two States
Highway 28 runs straight through Anthony and straight through the Texas-New Mexico line with it, which means our crew occasionally handles a move where the pickup and the delivery are a few blocks apart but technically cross a state border. That’s a paperwork detail more than a logistics one for a crew used to running the wider Borderplex, but it’s still something a lot of movers unfamiliar with the area don’t think to ask about.
| What our crew confirms in Anthony | Why it comes up here specifically |
|---|---|
| Which side of the state line the job falls on | Changes paperwork, not price, but it has to be right |
| Pecan orchard or irrigated lot access | Older Anthony properties can border working farmland |
| Language preference for scheduling and walkthrough | Our team handles both English and Spanish end to end |
A border town, not a border problem
Rafael Ontiveros spent years moving freight through this exact stretch of the Borderplex before Lightyear existed, state line included. A move that happens to cross from the Texas side of Anthony to the New Mexico side gets the same flat rate and the same crew — no handoff, no second company involved.
Older pecan-orchard lots and newer residential streets both fall inside Anthony’s town limits, and our crew treats each on its own merits rather than assuming the address tells the whole story.
