Aurora sits about 901 miles northeast of Garland, 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 $4,440 to $6,610 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 16 h 14 min.
On the Garland side there are 1,745 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (758 of them authorized for interstate work), and 824 around Aurora (675 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 Aurora.
Garland has a population of about 249,625 and Aurora about 181,505. The two cities have comparable density (4,309 and 4,012 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Illinois does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.
