Reverse: Amarillo → Davenport

Moving from Davenport to Amarillo is a long-distance move of roughly 884 road miles, heading southwest from Iowa to Texas.

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 $4,140 to $6,160 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 15 h 57 min.

On the Davenport side there are 98 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (78 of them authorized for interstate work), and 82 around Amarillo (45 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 Amarillo.

Davenport has a population of about 100,358 and Amarillo about 205,130. The two cities have comparable density (1,594 and 1,959 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Texas levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Davenport to Amarillo?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,660 to $2,460 for a studio, $2,480 to $3,700 for a one-bedroom, $4,140 to $6,160 for a two-bedroom, $6,620 to $9,860 for a three-bedroom and $9,110 to $13,550 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Amarillo from Davenport?

About 884 road miles (749 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 15 h 57 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Iowa into Texas 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Davenport to Amarillo?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,210 to $1,710 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,810 to $2,660. 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 Davenport–Amarillo corridor.
