Fort Worth, TX → Evansville, IN · Long-distance move
About 778 road miles heading northeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,910–$5,820, delivery in 2–5 days, 2,811 carriers on the Fort Worth side and 120 in Evansville.
Evansville sits about 778 miles northeast of Fort Worth, which makes this an interstate relocation from Texas to Indiana 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 $3,910 to $5,820 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 14 h 7 min.
On the Fort Worth side there are 2,811 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (1,207 of them authorized for interstate work), and 120 around Evansville (81 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 Evansville.
Fort Worth has a population of about 1 million and Evansville about 116,176. The two cities have comparable density (2,646 and 2,475 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Indiana does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 778 road miles (659 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 14 h 7 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.
Yes. Crossing from Texas into Indiana 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 $1,100 to $1,550 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,710 to $2,520. 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 Fort Worth–Evansville corridor.
