Plano, TX → Yonkers, NY · Cross-country move
About 1,617 road miles heading northeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $6,650–$9,900, delivery in 5–10 days, 1,562 carriers on the Plano side and 2,152 in Yonkers.
Yonkers sits about 1,617 miles northeast of Plano, which makes this an interstate relocation from Texas to New York that most movers classify as a cross-country 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 $6,650 to $9,900 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 Plano side there are 1,562 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (674 of them authorized for interstate work), and 2,152 around Yonkers (1,091 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 Yonkers.
Plano has a population of about 293,028 and Yonkers about 212,603. Yonkers is the denser city (11,754 people per square mile versus 3,982 in Plano), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. New York is a higher-cost state than Texas, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Note that New York does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 1,617 road miles (1,370 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 28 hours (4 driving days).
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.
Yes. Crossing from Texas into New York 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 $2,260 to $3,190 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,460 to $3,620. 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 Plano–Yonkers corridor.
