Mankato, MN → Lewisville, TX · Long-distance move
About 926 road miles heading south. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,460–$6,640, delivery in 2–5 days, 116 carriers on the Mankato side and 655 in Lewisville.
Lewisville sits about 926 miles south of Mankato, which makes this an interstate relocation from Minnesota to Texas that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
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 $4,460 to $6,640 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 16 h 40 min.
On the Mankato side there are 116 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (69 of them authorized for interstate work), and 655 around Lewisville (262 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 Lewisville.
Mankato has a population of about 45,000 and Lewisville about 139,006. Lewisville is the denser city (3,022 people per square mile versus 2,236 in Mankato), 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 926 road miles (785 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 16 h 40 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 Minnesota 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 $1,400 to $1,980 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,850 to $2,720. 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 Mankato–Lewisville corridor.
