Lewisville, TX → Mobile, AL · Long-distance move
About 644 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,520–$5,230, delivery in 2–5 days, 655 carriers on the Lewisville side and 168 in Mobile.
The route from Lewisville, TX to Mobile, AL covers roughly 644 miles by road, a east-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 $3,520 to $5,230 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 11 h 48 min.
On the Lewisville side there are 655 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (262 of them authorized for interstate work), and 168 around Mobile (103 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 Mobile.
Lewisville has a population of about 139,006 and Mobile about 200,824. Lewisville is considerably denser (3,022 people per square mile versus 1,341), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Alabama than in Texas, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Note that Alabama does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 644 road miles (546 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 11 h 48 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 Texas into Alabama 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 $960 to $1,360 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,590 to $2,350. 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 Lewisville–Mobile corridor.
