Moving from Lawrence to Garland is a long-distance move of roughly 501 road miles, heading south from Kansas 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 $3,230 to $4,810 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 9 h 20 min.
On the Lawrence side there are 17 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (14 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,745 around Garland (758 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 Garland.
Lawrence has a population of about 95,000 and Garland about 249,625. Garland is the denser city (4,309 people per square mile versus 2,772 in Lawrence), 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.
