Edinburg, TX → Texarkana, TX · Long-distance move
About 649 road miles heading northeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,680–$5,470, delivery in 2–5 days, 307 carriers on the Edinburg side and 51 in Texarkana.
Moving from Edinburg to Texarkana is a long-distance move of roughly 649 road miles, heading northeast within 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 $3,680 to $5,470 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 11 h 53 min.
On the Edinburg side there are 307 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (188 of them authorized for interstate work), and 51 around Texarkana (35 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 Texarkana.
Edinburg has a population of about 110,700 and Texarkana about 37,000. Edinburg is considerably denser (2,243 people per square mile versus 1,152), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

About 649 road miles (550 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 11 h 53 min.
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.
No. Because both Edinburg and Texarkana 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $970 to $1,360 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,600 to $2,350. 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 Edinburg–Texarkana corridor.
