Reverse: Irving → Paterson

Moving from Paterson to Irving is a cross-country move of roughly 1,620 road miles, heading west from New Jersey to Texas.

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 $6,450 to $9,590 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 28 hours (4 driving days).

On the Paterson side there are 2,164 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (1,282 of them authorized for interstate work), and 2,220 around Irving (881 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 Irving.

Paterson has a population of about 161,793 and Irving about 257,076. Paterson is considerably denser (19,016 people per square mile versus 3,831), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Texas than in New Jersey, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Texas levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Paterson to Irving?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,580 to $3,840 for a studio, $3,870 to $5,750 for a one-bedroom, $6,450 to $9,590 for a two-bedroom, $10,310 to $15,340 for a three-bedroom and $14,180 to $21,100 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Irving from Paterson?

About 1,620 road miles (1,373 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 28 hours (4 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from New Jersey 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Paterson to Irving?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,260 to $3,200 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,470 to $3,630. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Paterson–Irving corridor.
