Reverse: Longview → Austin

Longview sits about 276 miles northeast of Austin, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a regional 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 $2,520 to $3,750 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 5 h 28 min.

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 89 around Longview (47 interstate). For an in-state 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 Longview.

Austin has a population of about 1 million and Longview about 82,000. Austin is considerably denser (3,007 people per square mile versus 1,462), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Austin to Longview?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,210 to $1,790 for a studio, $1,510 to $2,250 for a one-bedroom, $2,520 to $3,750 for a two-bedroom, $4,040 to $6,010 for a three-bedroom and $5,550 to $8,260 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Longview from Austin?

About 276 road miles (234 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 5 h 28 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Austin and Longview are in Texas, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Austin to Longview?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $430 to $610 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,270 to $1,860. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Austin–Longview corridor.
