Moving from Independence to Killeen is a long-distance move of roughly 691 road miles, heading south from Missouri to Texas.
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 $3,700 to $5,510 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 12 h 37 min.
On the Independence side there are 214 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (159 of them authorized for interstate work), and 147 around Killeen (55 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 Killeen.
Independence has a population of about 121,675 and Killeen about 161,883. Killeen is the denser city (2,794 people per square mile versus 1,577 in Independence), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Texas levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.
