Mesquite, TX → Springfield, MO · Regional long-distance move
About 423 road miles heading northeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,980–$4,430, delivery in 1–3 days, 1,504 carriers on the Mesquite side and 135 in Springfield.
Springfield sits about 423 miles northeast of Mesquite, which makes this an interstate relocation from Texas to Missouri that most movers classify as a regional 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 $2,980 to $4,430 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 8 h.
On the Mesquite side there are 1,504 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (636 of them authorized for interstate work), and 135 around Springfield (106 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 Springfield.
Mesquite has a population of about 150,693 and Springfield about 169,847. Mesquite is considerably denser (3,095 people per square mile versus 2,053), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Note that Missouri does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 423 road miles (359 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 8 h.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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 Missouri 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 $580 to $830 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,400 to $2,060. 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 Mesquite–Springfield corridor.
