Monroe, LA → Kerrville, TX · Long-distance move
About 531 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,300–$4,920, delivery in 2–5 days, 49 carriers on the Monroe side and 31 in Kerrville.
Kerrville sits about 531 miles west of Monroe, which makes this an interstate relocation from Louisiana 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 $3,300 to $4,920 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 9 h 51 min.
On the Monroe side there are 49 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (26 of them authorized for interstate work), and 31 around Kerrville (7 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 Kerrville.
Monroe has a population of about 46,000 and Kerrville about 25,000. Monroe is considerably denser (1,604 people per square mile versus 1,068), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Texas levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,320 to $1,970 for a studio, $1,980 to $2,950 for a one-bedroom, $3,300 to $4,920 for a two-bedroom, $5,290 to $7,860 for a three-bedroom and $7,270 to $10,810 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.
About 531 road miles (450 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 9 h 51 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 Louisiana 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 $850 to $1,190 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,490 to $2,200. 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 Monroe–Kerrville corridor.
