Las Cruces, NM → McKinney, TX · Long-distance move
About 698 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,720–$5,530, delivery in 2–5 days, 27 carriers on the Las Cruces side and 885 in McKinney.
Moving from Las Cruces to McKinney is a long-distance move of roughly 698 road miles, heading east from New Mexico 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 $3,720 to $5,530 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 44 min.
On the Las Cruces side there are 27 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (21 of them authorized for interstate work), and 885 around McKinney (386 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 McKinney.
Las Cruces has a population of about 116,978 and McKinney about 236,001. McKinney is the denser city (2,915 people per square mile versus 1,448 in Las Cruces), 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.

About 698 road miles (591 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 12 h 44 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 New Mexico 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 $1,020 to $1,440 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,640 to $2,420. 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 Las Cruces–McKinney corridor.
