Jefferson City sits about 771 miles northeast of Austin, which makes this an interstate relocation from Texas to Missouri that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
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 $3,890 to $5,790 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 14 h.
On the Austin side there are 868 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (241 of them authorized for interstate work), and 43 around Jefferson City (29 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 Jefferson City.
Austin has a population of about 1 million and Jefferson City about 43,000. Austin is considerably denser (3,007 people per square mile versus 1,199), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Note that Missouri does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.
