Davenport, IA → Pasadena, TX · Long-distance move
About 1,016 road miles heading south. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,450–$6,620, delivery in 3–7 days, 98 carriers on the Davenport side and 487 in Pasadena.
Pasadena sits about 1,016 miles south of Davenport, which makes this an interstate relocation from Iowa to Texas 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 $4,450 to $6,620 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 18 h 13 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 487 around Pasadena (212 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 Pasadena.
Davenport has a population of about 100,358 and Pasadena about 148,539. Pasadena is the denser city (3,477 people per square mile versus 1,594 in Davenport), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Texas levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 1,016 road miles (861 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 18 h 13 min.
Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,490 to $2,110 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,930 to $2,830. 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 Davenport–Pasadena corridor.
