Pasadena, TX → Minneapolis, MN · Long-distance move
About 1,254 road miles heading north. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,280–$7,850, delivery in 3–7 days, 487 carriers on the Pasadena side and 1,248 in Minneapolis.
The route from Pasadena, TX to Minneapolis, MN covers roughly 1,254 miles by road, a north-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.
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 $5,280 to $7,850 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 22 h 19 min.
On the Pasadena side there are 487 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (212 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,248 around Minneapolis (529 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 Minneapolis.
Pasadena has a population of about 148,539 and Minneapolis about 430,324. Minneapolis is the denser city (7,962 people per square mile versus 3,477 in Pasadena), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Minnesota does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 1,254 road miles (1,063 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 22 h 19 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 Texas into Minnesota 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 $1,740 to $2,450 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,140 to $3,150. 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 Pasadena–Minneapolis corridor.
