Fort Worth, TX → Marietta, GA · Long-distance move
About 877 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,230–$6,300, delivery in 2–5 days, 2,811 carriers on the Fort Worth side and 801 in Marietta.
Marietta sits about 877 miles east of Fort Worth, which makes this an interstate relocation from Texas to Georgia 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 $4,230 to $6,300 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 15 h 49 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 801 around Marietta (372 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 Marietta.
Fort Worth has a population of about 1 million and Marietta about 62,000. The two cities have comparable density (2,646 and 2,594 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Georgia does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 877 road miles (743 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 15 h 49 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 Georgia 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 $1,200 to $1,700 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,800 to $2,650. 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–Marietta corridor.
