The route from Garden City, KS to Mesquite, TX covers roughly 511 miles by road, a southeast-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 $3,260 to $4,840 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 9 h 31 min.
On the Garden City side there are 19 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (13 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,504 around Mesquite (636 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 Mesquite.
Garden City has a population of about 28,000 and Mesquite about 150,693. The two cities have comparable density (2,557 and 3,095 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.
