Irving, TX → Boise, ID · Cross-country move
About 1,507 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,820–$8,650, delivery in 5–10 days, 2,220 carriers on the Irving side and 168 in Boise.
The route from Irving, TX to Boise, ID covers roughly 1,507 miles by road, a northwest-bound trip that falls into the cross-country 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 $5,820 to $8,650 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 26 hours (3 driving days).
On the Irving side there are 2,220 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (881 of them authorized for interstate work), and 168 around Boise (127 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 Boise.
Irving has a population of about 257,076 and Boise about 238,429. Irving is considerably denser (3,831 people per square mile versus 2,806), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Note that Idaho does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 1,507 road miles (1,277 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 26 hours (3 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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 Idaho 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 $2,150 to $3,030 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,360 to $3,480. 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 Irving–Boise corridor.
