The route from Fort Worth, TX to Fort Myers, FL covers roughly 1,207 miles by road, a east-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.
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 $5,140 to $7,640 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 21 h 31 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 382 around Fort Myers (119 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 Fort Myers.
Fort Worth has a population of about 1 million and Fort Myers about 101,581. The two cities have comparable density (2,646 and 2,171 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

About 1,207 road miles (1,023 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 21 h 31 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 Texas into Florida 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 $1,690 to $2,390 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,100 to $3,080. 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–Fort Myers corridor.
