Irving, TX → Pierre, SD · Long-distance move
About 963 road miles heading north. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,370–$6,510, delivery in 2–5 days, 2,220 carriers on the Irving side and 2 in Pierre.
The route from Irving, TX to Pierre, SD covers roughly 963 miles by road, a north-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 $4,370 to $6,510 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 17 h 18 min.
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 2 around Pierre (2 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 Pierre.
Irving has a population of about 257,076 and Pierre about 14,000. Irving is considerably denser (3,831 people per square mile versus 1,082), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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 South Dakota 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 $1,440 to $2,030 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,880 to $2,760. 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–Pierre corridor.
