Reverse: Shreveport → Roswell

Moving from Roswell to Shreveport is a long-distance move of roughly 738 road miles, heading east from New Mexico to Louisiana.

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 $3,710 to $5,530 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 13 h 25 min.

On the Roswell side there are 6 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (4 of them authorized for interstate work), and 81 around Shreveport (46 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 Shreveport.

Roswell has a population of about 48,000 and Shreveport about 175,902. The two cities have comparable density (1,629 and 1,740 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Roswell to Shreveport?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,490 to $2,210 for a studio, $2,230 to $3,320 for a one-bedroom, $3,710 to $5,530 for a two-bedroom, $5,940 to $8,840 for a three-bedroom and $8,170 to $12,160 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Shreveport from Roswell?

About 738 road miles (626 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 13 h 25 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from New Mexico into Louisiana 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 Roswell to Shreveport?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,060 to $1,490 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,680 to $2,470. 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 Roswell–Shreveport corridor.
