McAllen, TX → Logan, UT · Cross-country move
About 1,559 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,960–$8,860, delivery in 5–10 days, 357 carriers on the McAllen side and 57 in Logan.
Moving from McAllen to Logan is a cross-country move of roughly 1,559 road miles, heading northwest from Texas to Utah.
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 $5,960 to $8,860 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 27 hours (4 driving days).
On the McAllen side there are 357 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (213 of them authorized for interstate work), and 57 around Logan (41 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 Logan.
McAllen has a population of about 150,640 and Logan about 55,000. The two cities have comparable density (2,283 and 2,924 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Utah does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 1,559 road miles (1,321 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 27 hours (4 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,200 to $3,110 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,410 to $3,550. 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 McAllen–Logan corridor.
