Reverse: College Station → Texarkana

Moving from Texarkana to College Station is a regional long-distance move of roughly 279 road miles, heading southwest within 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 $2,530 to $3,770 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 5 h 31 min.

On the Texarkana side there are 51 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (35 of them authorized for interstate work), and 110 around College Station (35 interstate). For an in-state 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 College Station.

Texarkana has a population of about 37,000 and College Station about 127,472. College Station is the denser city (2,354 people per square mile versus 1,152 in Texarkana), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Texarkana to College Station?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,210 to $1,790 for a studio, $1,520 to $2,260 for a one-bedroom, $2,530 to $3,770 for a two-bedroom, $4,050 to $6,030 for a three-bedroom and $5,570 to $8,290 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is College Station from Texarkana?

About 279 road miles (236 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 5 h 31 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Texarkana and College Station are in Texas, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Texarkana to College Station?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $440 to $620 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,270 to $1,870. 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 Texarkana–College Station corridor.
