Amarillo, TX → Garden City, KS · Regional long-distance move
About 235 road miles heading north. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,320–$3,450, delivery in 1–2 days, 82 carriers on the Amarillo side and 19 in Garden City.
Moving from Amarillo to Garden City is a regional long-distance move of roughly 235 road miles, heading north from Texas to Kansas.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $2,320 to $3,450 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 2 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 4 h 45 min.
On the Amarillo side there are 82 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (45 of them authorized for interstate work), and 19 around Garden City (13 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Garden City.
Amarillo has a population of about 205,130 and Garden City about 28,000. Garden City is the denser city (2,557 people per square mile versus 1,959 in Amarillo), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Kansas does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 235 road miles (199 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 4 h 45 min.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 2 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.
Yes. Crossing from Texas into Kansas makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $390 to $550 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,230 to $1,810. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.
Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Amarillo–Garden City corridor.
