Flint, MI → College Station, TX · Long-distance move
About 1,303 road miles heading southwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,240–$7,800, delivery in 3–7 days, 142 carriers on the Flint side and 110 in College Station.
Moving from Flint to College Station is a long-distance move of roughly 1,303 road miles, heading southwest from Michigan 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 $5,240 to $7,800 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 23 h 10 min.
On the Flint side there are 142 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (39 of them authorized for interstate work), and 110 around College Station (35 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 College Station.
Flint has a population of about 79,000 and College Station about 127,472. The two cities have comparable density (2,430 and 2,354 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.

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 Michigan 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 $1,790 to $2,530 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,180 to $3,210. 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 Flint–College Station corridor.
