Moving from Long Beach to Dallas is a long-distance move of roughly 1,458 road miles, heading east from California 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 $6,420 to $9,550 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 25 hours (3 driving days).

On the Long Beach side there are 1,558 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (664 of them authorized for interstate work), and 3,665 around Dallas (1,566 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 Dallas.

Long Beach has a population of about 450,469 and Dallas about 1.3 million. Long Beach is considerably denser (9,206 people per square mile versus 3,841), 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 Texas than in California, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Texas levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Long Beach to Dallas?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,570 to $3,820 for a studio, $3,850 to $5,730 for a one-bedroom, $6,420 to $9,550 for a two-bedroom, $10,270 to $15,290 for a three-bedroom and $14,130 to $21,020 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Dallas from Long Beach?

About 1,458 road miles (1,236 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 25 hours (3 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from California 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Long Beach to Dallas?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,100 to $2,960 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,320 to $3,410. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Long Beach–Dallas corridor.
