Reverse: Moab → Longview

The route from Longview, TX to Moab, UT covers roughly 1,096 miles by road, a northwest-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 $4,860 to $7,230 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 19 h 36 min.

On the Longview side there are 89 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (47 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1 around Moab (1 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 Moab.

Longview has a population of about 82,000 and Moab about 5,000. Longview is considerably denser (1,462 people per square mile versus 1,118), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Note that Utah does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Longview to Moab?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,940 to $2,890 for a studio, $2,920 to $4,340 for a one-bedroom, $4,860 to $7,230 for a two-bedroom, $7,780 to $11,570 for a three-bedroom and $10,690 to $15,910 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Moab from Longview?

About 1,096 road miles (929 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 19 h 36 min.

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 Texas into Utah 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 Longview to Moab?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,580 to $2,220 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,000 to $2,940. 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 Longview–Moab corridor.
