Shreveport, LA → St. Cloud, MN · Long-distance move
About 1,065 road miles heading north. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,690–$6,980, delivery in 3–7 days, 81 carriers on the Shreveport side and 243 in St. Cloud.
St. Cloud sits about 1,065 miles north of Shreveport, which makes this an interstate relocation from Louisiana to Minnesota 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 $4,690 to $6,980 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 19 h 4 min.
On the Shreveport side there are 81 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (46 of them authorized for interstate work), and 243 around St. Cloud (91 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 St. Cloud.
Shreveport has a population of about 175,902 and St. Cloud about 69,000. The two cities have comparable density (1,740 and 1,713 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Minnesota is a higher-cost state than Louisiana, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 1,065 road miles (903 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 19 h 4 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 Louisiana 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 $1,540 to $2,180 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,970 to $2,900. 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 Shreveport–St. Cloud corridor.
