If you are moving within Irving or moving from another area of DFW, you can easily transfer your electricity service to your new home. Check electricity rates before you do that.
If new rates are lower, you can use your move as a way to cancel your contract with no penalty and get a new provider. Let your provider know you are moving out and provide a forwarding address to avoid the ETF.
If your current electricity contract gives you a lower price, simply contact them to transfer your contract to your new home.
If you are moving to Irving from out of the area, you’ll need to pick an electricity provider. Oncor, the local utility company, will deliver power to your home. But the power company you pick will be your electricity company. This is the company that will issue your bill and supply your power.

Switching Electricity Providers in Irving
There are two things that we’ve seen over the years regarding electricity shopping:
- Electricity providers usually save their best rates for new customers. There’s very little reward for loyalty.
- The highest rate you’ll pay for your electricity bill is when you forget to shop for a new electricity plan!
We recommend that you shop for a new provider every time your contract expires.
