Jonesboro, AR → College Station, TX · Long-distance move
About 573 road miles heading southwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,350–$4,980, delivery in 2–5 days, 42 carriers on the Jonesboro side and 110 in College Station.
The route from Jonesboro, AR to College Station, TX covers roughly 573 miles by road, a southwest-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 $3,350 to $4,980 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 10 h 35 min.
On the Jonesboro side there are 42 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (29 of them authorized for interstate work), and 110 around College Station (35 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 College Station.
Jonesboro has a population of about 81,000 and College Station about 127,472. College Station is the denser city (2,354 people per square mile versus 980 in Jonesboro), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Texas is a higher-cost state than Arkansas, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Texas levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 573 road miles (486 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 10 h 35 min.
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 Arkansas into Texas 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 $890 to $1,250 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,530 to $2,250. 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 Jonesboro–College Station corridor.
