New Bern, NC → Carrollton, TX · Long-distance move
About 1,348 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,350–$7,960, delivery in 3–7 days, 120 carriers on the New Bern side and 976 in Carrollton.
Carrollton sits about 1,348 miles west of New Bern, which makes this an interstate relocation from North Carolina 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 $5,350 to $7,960 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 23 h 57 min.
On the New Bern side there are 120 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (60 of them authorized for interstate work), and 976 around Carrollton (399 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 Carrollton.
New Bern has a population of about 32,000 and Carrollton about 134,562. Carrollton is the denser city (3,636 people per square mile versus 1,099 in New Bern), 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 1,348 road miles (1,143 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 23 h 57 min.
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.
Yes. Crossing from North Carolina 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 $1,840 to $2,590 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,220 to $3,270. 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 New Bern–Carrollton corridor.
