Evanston sits about 1,153 miles northeast of Galveston, which makes this an interstate relocation from Texas to Illinois 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 $5,080 to $7,550 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 20 h 35 min.
On the Galveston side there are 37 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (17 of them authorized for interstate work), and 739 around Evanston (527 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 Evanston.
Galveston has a population of about 53,000 and Evanston about 78,000. Evanston is the denser city (10,041 people per square mile versus 1,308 in Galveston), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Illinois does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.
